Splashed out this month...
Beth Hart & Joe Bonamassa - Seesaw
Eric Burdon - Soul Of A Man and Til Your Rivers Run Dry
.. old Eric's still got THE voice even at 71
I like everything really. From the britpop bands like UB40 right back to classic rock, like Wings. They're only the band the Beatles could have been.

Devildriver - The Last Kind Words
Waltz Darling ~ Malcom McLaren & The Bootzilla Orchestra
I own the 12" single of the title track and wondered what the rest of the album sounded like. Listened to it on Spotify and thought it was rather good so picked up a Like New copy on CD from Amazon for just £1.80. Bargain...
