FREE – LIVE AT THE BBC

Released by Universal Music Catalogue on 18^th September 2006 (cat no 9840662)

Complete surviving BBC recordings available for the first time, including tracks recently unearthed in Paul Kossoff’s personal archive

Marking the 30^th anniversary of Paul Kossoff’s tragic death, the painstakingly compiled Free - Live at the BBC is an extraordinary album which brings together all the surviving BBC Sessions and Concerts on two discs, most of which have never been officially released and many of which have not even appeared on bootlegs and were found within Kossoff’s personal archive.

From their very first session in 1968 (represented here by ‘Waiting on You’) just months after they formed (and recorded just a few days after Andy Fraser’s 16^th birthday), through to their last official recording for the beeb, In Concert for John Peel in July 1970, this compilation captures the rise of one of the UK’s most talented blues-rock bands.

Whilst some of the material has surfaced as bonus material on reissues, the bulk of it has never before been available; ‘Sugar For Mr Morrision’ (found amongst Paul Kossoff’s tapes) ‘Woman’, ‘I’ll Be Creepin’’ ‘Trouble On Double Time’ and ‘Mouthful of Grass’ In Session tracks and both the In Concert performances are officially released here for the first time. The December 1969 session for Top Gear didn’t even made it to bootleg, and was found recently in Paul Kossof’s private archive.

Whilst some of the songs featured in this release comes from the original masters from the BBC many of the recordings were recorded over by the beeb at the time, and as a result much of the remaining material has been collated from fan’s recordings of the original broadcasts, and some were even recently discovered in Paul Kossoff’s personal collection.

In order to put together a complete collection, some of the material that appears on the album is of less-than-perfect quality, but nevertheless represents the most comprehensive collection ever released. As David Clayton says in his sleevenotes, Paul Kossoff had a habit of recording song ideas over any tape that was to hand. As a result, the recording of Mr Big from the Top Gear session of December 1969 has been lost, and the start of ‘I’ll be Creeping’ was clipped by Kossoff, which is why the track fades in a few seconds into the song.

WE SHALL BE FREE - PAUL RODGERS with SAM MOORE

Original Release Date: August 29, 2006

Sound clip

Rock Hall of Famer and Grammy winner Sam Moore—the voice of the immortal soul hits "Hold On! I'm Comin," "I Thank You," and "Soul Man"—has created an astonishing new solo album that showcases his timeless talent and versatility. Bassist/record executive/talent judge Randy Jackson, the project's producer, crafted a contemporary sound that makes a perfect backdrop for Moore's signature voice and energetic presence. More than 20 of Sam's friends and peers—Jon Bon Jovi, Bekka Bramlett, Mariah Carey, Eric Clapton, Nikka Costa, Shelia E., Fantasia, Billy F. Gibbons, Vince Gill, Van Hunt, Billy Preston, Robert Randolph, Paul Rodgers, Bruce Springsteen, Sting, Travis Tritt, BeBe Winans, Steve Winwood, Wynonna, and Zucchero—showed up to celebrate his sensational vocal talents, making this album a truly spectacular, "must-have" work of art.

ANSWER

will be opening up for Paul Rodgers at the Royal Albert Hall

              The Answer      MySpace (watch video never too late)

Cormac Neeson - Vocals
Paul Mahon - Guitar
Michael Waters - Bass
James Heatley - Drums 

The Answer are four lads hailing from Downpatrick in Northern Ireland.

Raised on a heady diet of Led Zeppelin, Free, The Who and The Black Crowes, The Answer’s contemporary take of bluesy, riff heavy hard rock is starting to turn heads especially with the recent release of their debut EP ‘Keep Believin’’ in July 2005. This has has helped secure them a place on the forthcoming "New School Of Rock Tour" this autumn alongside The Sound Explosion and Tokyo Dragons.

The Darkness and Alter Bridge have already lent their praise by asking them to support them on their winter tour of 2004. At a recent London gig none other than Jimmy Page stood and watched their set from side of stage and they’ve already played at a Phil Lynott memorial benefit gig in Dublin as Lynott’s mother is a big fan. So big in fact that she allowed Mahon to be the first since Lynott’s death to open his bass case and play the revered black iconic bass axe! It’s the same black bass that appears in the video to ‘Keep Believin’’.

The Answer will be special guests at the Royal Albert Hall !! :-))

A tribute to the Marquee Club in London,

the temple of 3 decades of rock, blues, and jazz.

BRIAN WILTSEY

One of Atlanta's most buzz-worthy artists has release his new album Rain and Flies and it is already said to be Brian Wiltsey's best work to date. Wanting to write more band oriented songs this time around, this album definitely rocks more than his previous projects. Already known for his dynamic, soulful voice, it just gets stronger and stronger with each album.

Rain and Flies starts off with a darker love song called "On My Own" with a great line in the chorus, "On my own I will fake it through the night, there is so much more to tell you but nothing left to say, I'll just be on my way."

The album takes many turns and dynamic changes with the song moods describing the lighter and darker moments of relationships it finally finishes on a bittersweet anthem entitled "Tomorrow Can Wait". Here, Brian, sets the scene as the last night on earth with the person you love. The final words you hear are "Goodnight my love, goodnight". It's a very cool ending to a fine bunch of songs.

The first single is "You Make It Better". This song has already been recorded a few different ways. The new album version takes a darker, more british sounding approach that brings a stronger and emotional mood to the song that it lacked before.

Brian is currently putting together a summer/fall tour to promote the album. If his live shows are any indication, Brian Wiltsey is going places.

If you buy his cd on line, I am 100% sure it wont come out your cd player !!!!

My name is Spencer Durham. I am 17 years old, and I live in Dahlonega Ga. Ive been playing gigs all over the country for the past 2 years. I have toured with Craig Collins and Kurt Thomas out in Texas and I have opened for country star Sara Evans. I released my first cd, "I Wonder Why", last year and it is on sale at many stores In the North Georgia area. In October I placed 2nd in the acoustic devision and top four out of 128 acts at the Open Mic Madness competition at Smiths Olde Bar. Also, I placed 3rd runner up at the Open Mic Atlanta Songwriters Competition with my song "I Wonder Why." I am an independent musician and I pay for all my equiptment and production costs by gig pay, cd sales and fan support. I do support the burning and trading of my cds and live shows, but I ask that my fans come to my shows and support my music.
