Two years shy of Dookie but already banging out “Welcome to Paradise,” this is GREEN DAY live for WFMU Radio in New Jersey in their 100% punk rock era. The trio still sounds raw, which is naturally part of the appeal of this performance: they’re stumbling toward greatness, occasionally tripping into the transcendent but most […]
All styles served here! I know opinion is divided, but as a fence-sitting digital cabling sceptic should I buy a modestly priced (up to £50) cable just to be on the safe side? If your viewpoint is “Why don’t you try listening to one ?” can anyone recommend a dealer who will give me 30 […]
From the archives Of the compilations released to mark the 150th anniversary of Claude Debussy’s birth this year, this is the most treasurable. As a survey of the music of perhaps of the greatest 20th-century composer it could hardly be bettered, especially within recordings from a single label, or rather, a single group of labels, […]
Forgive me for using the term “soul” because I don’t mean it in a disrespectful or religious manner – but for lack of a better term – I mean a life of its own. I think we all agree machines have personalities and they invoke feelings and emotions in us and for many they can […]

“As someone whose mind was blown by the theatre of Peter Gabriel’s Genesis and Pink Floyd performing with the Ballet de Marseille choreographed by Roland Petit in the early 70s, I always enjoyed the ambition within prog. Forty years on, that spirit is still at large in the musical land. Radiohead’s fondness for playing Roman […]
Joel Kasow writes: Two recital albums on Decca have recently come our way featuring two “house”singers. Renée Fleming’s Poèmes shows off the soprano, highlighting the extraordinary vocal beauty in exotic repertoire, thus demonstrating the soprano’s eagerness to lead her fans outside the customary paths. The most familiar item, Ravel’s Shéhérazade, is given one of the […]
