Live Review: Justin Townes Earle – Brudenell Social Club, Leeds. 03.02.2015
Sobriety clearly agrees with Mr Townes Earle as he takes a full house on a relaxed tour through his career highlights with some unexpected detours along the way.

Album Review: The Primitives – Galore (expanded reissue)
One of the highlights of my student days in London was getting a ticket to a hot new band called The Primitives at the much missed Astoria. The NME (remember them- if not, ask your dad) loved them and it seemed every student was wearing a T-shirt with cool singer Tracy Tracy’s image on it. …
