Remember the name The Roys; you will hear it a lot in the coming years.  The brother and sister duo of Lee and Elaine Roy are setting Music City on fire.  They have a new 15 track CD entitled “Comin’ Back Around” set for release later this year.  Each sibling takes turns singing lead on [...]

The release of Mindy McCready’s latest album is one long awaited comeback album for this listener.  Her voice, as strong as ever, makes you believe she has faced her demons and won!  The first cut, “Wrong Again” , is quite simply a hymn of recognition reflecting  admission of continuing vulnerability and [...]

Dommin’s new CD ‘Love is Gone’ is one of their best works yet. This CD has 15 tracks of very enjoyable music. Formed in Los Angeles by Kristopher Dommin in 2004 they have been through quite an experience to get to where they are today. Staring off by putting their music on [...]

Five years!  Five years too long, but Lorrie Morgan has arrived…again!  Her newest album of old standards with “first take perfection” makes  this album a “must have” in any collection of standards.
 
A full and  heartfelt package of emotion delivered as only Morgan could  makes each song  her very own. Quiet [...]

Lynyrd Skynyrd is arguably the most recognized Southern rock band on the planet today, and their new album, “God and Guns”, is a prime example of iconic southern rock. The band doesn’t try to break new ground, sticking to the meat and potatoes music that made them legends.
The opening track, [...]

Nickelback’s new album is called ‘Dark Horse’.  As expected, ‘Dark Horse’ is a high energy, party music, arena rock extravaganza, with a couple patented Nickelback ballads.  The recording is loaded with hooky, heavy riffs, and rife with sexual innuendos.  Vintage Nickelback.  ‘Dark Horse’ is the Candian band’s sixth output, and was [...]

            Lead singer John Allen’s heady opening cry, “Let’s Rock and Roll” sets the pace perfectly for Charm City Devils’ debut album, “Let’s Rock and Roll” kicks off in 5th gear and never really slows down.  When the last schoes of “You’re One of a kind” fade from your ears, [...]

OK, I admit it.  I’m hooked.  I’m obsessed.  I’m addicted. 
 
Queensryche has done this to me before.  When ‘Operation: Mindcrime’ came out in 1988, I listened to it over and over and over again.  I recorded the album onto a TDK -SA90 tape (remember those?).  I played it in the car, on my [...]

Review By: Johnny Concert
The powerful opening riff goes right through you and you just know ‘Chinese Democracy ‘ is gonna be good.  The songs are huge productions.  Some include grandiose, orchestral string sections, choir sections, Elton John-style piano, and lots of guitar, while others are straight ahead rockers.  But none of the songs are convoluted.  [...]

Review: Kenny D
Sticking to Jackson Browne staples of politics, personal reflection, and yearning, Time the Conqueror is a very solid effort. The CD is musically just sparse enough to provide a backdrop to the crises we’ve faced under the Bush Administration, but also offers lighter fare as well. “Off of Wonderland” is a [...]
