Who likes Jethro Tull? Not a typical rock band with a flute playing lead singer. An eclectic mixture of prog, rock & folk. Martin Barre is a hugely underrated guitar player. These are a few of my favourites. Also like War Child,Stormwatch & Minstrel In The Gallery.

Any fans of Yes? Anderson’s distinctive voice, Steve Howe is one of my favourite guitarists and Chis Squire is one of the top bass players. And of course Rick Wakeman joined the fold on Fragile. Not everyone’s cup of tea I guess, but I’m a fan, especially these albums.

Rush - definitely a band people love or hate. I’m a big fan, especially of the era up to Exit Stage Left. Permanent Waves is my favourite. Do you like Rush and what’s your favourite Rush album. Or don’t you like them?

Any UFO fans? One of the unsung rock bands, who were hugely influential to the likes of Iron Maiden. Schenker’s guitar work is superb, aided by Paul Raymond, who also played keyboards. The awesome rhythm section of Way & Chapman & Phil Mogg on vocals. This is a great album.

And Justice For All Metallica’s first album after the terrible death of Cliff Burton. Controversial due to the mix & inaudible bass. For me it’s not it’s up there with the previous 3 albums, but overall I quite like it. What are your thoughts on this album?

Highway To Hell. Bon’s swan song. Mutt Lunge producing. He tightened up their sound and it bought classics such as the title track, Shot Down In Flames, Girl’s Got Rhythm, If You Want Blood etc. How does this stand inAC/DC’s album rankings? Do you prefer the rawer predecessors?

What a cracking live album. Released in 1978. Much of it recorded at the Glasgow Apollo. Bon in top form with the crowd in the palm of his hand. Mal & Angus pulling out the licks with Phil & Cliff in the engine room. Underrated rhythm section. Love the Bon era of AC//DC.

I personally prefer Def Leppard’s first 2 albums. However Pyromania & Hysteria went stratospheric. Def Leppard’s music and looks were perfect for MTV. They wanted to conquer the US from the outset & were more radio friendly than their NWOBHM counterparts. Fan or not a fan?

This is one of my favourite Maiden albums. Adrian Smith adds as a perfect foil to Dave’s bluesy guitar & Martin Birch as producer brings up that Maiden sound. Overlooked and Maiden should play more songs from it live.

1983’s Flick Of The Switch was a relative commercial disappointment. Produced by Malcolm & Angus who attempted to go back to a raw sound after the 3 Mutt produced albums. Received some bad reviews. I personally like it & think it’s one of the better Brian era albums. Thoughts?

Blackfoot - this band needs more love. Definitive line up of Rickey Medlocke, Greg T Walker, Jackson Spires & Charlie Hargrett released some strong material in late 70’s/early 80’s. Deserved bigger success. Highway Song Live is an excellent album. I love a bit of Southern Rock.

The Joe Lynn Turner fronted era of Rainbow released 3 studio albums all of which were more commercially successful than with Dio or Bonnett. Although JLT has a good voice. I don’t think this era is a patch on Dio and I prefer the one Bonnet album over these 3. How about you?

Whilst Live and Dangerous is on of the GOAT live albums, Life is pretty good as well. Recorded on Lizzy’s farewell tour in 83. Eric Bell, Robbo and Gary Moore make guest appearances, but sadly not Snowy. However this album sizzles. Alas, the end of an era from this great band.

Thank you Twitter friends for stirring up my interest in Testament. This band are criminally underrated and don’t deserve to be the second tier of thrash. Should be much bigger.

Morning rockers. Finally Friday and the end of a tiring week. In the cans is Ozzy Osbourne’s The Ultimate Sin. I know Ozzy doesn’t like it, but I disagree. Jake E Lee guitar is smoking. Not Ozzy’s best, but some good songs here.

This is a cut above most rock star autobiographies. Fascinating history about Rush and the music. Very funny and informative. Harrowing accounts of his parents and ancestors interments in the Nazi death camps and Neil’s bereavements and tragic deaths. But somehow uplifting.

Greetings rock fans. Early morning listening is Irish Tour’74 by the brilliant Rory Gallagher, Rory always played in Ireland during the height of the terrorist activities. He bought Protestants and Catholics together for a few hours, with his magical music. Lovely man. ❤️🎸

Much as I am enjoying the new Priest album, which is a good solid release with some top songs, this absolute beauty is my go to Priest album from the Metal Gods.

Always loved this album. Mostly recorded as a 3 piece band, Robbo only present on 3 tracks. Southbound, Bad Reputation, Opium Trail, Dancing In The Moonlight etc. Thin Lizzy were such a good band.

I’ve been thinking how many great German 🇩🇪 rock/metal bands there are. Scorpions are the most famous, but besides the ones below, there’s Sodom, Rammstein, Gamma Ray,Blind Guardian and many others too numerous to list! Who’s your favourite Teutonic rock band?🇩🇪🇩🇪

Morning rockstars. A beautiful morning, shame I’ve got to work. Kicking off with the album that started off one of the best metal bands - Iron Maiden. Full of raw energy and the classic Maiden sound. Great songs that have stood the test of time.

Status Quo. Absolutely brilliant boogie blues rock band in their prime. They produced a slew of great albums culminating with the Quo Live album released in 77. Hello is my favourite of theirs. What’s yours?

Little ol’ band from Texas- ZZ Top. First record released in 71. Great mixture of bluesy, low down, southern rock. Most famous for Eliminator, but they released many other worthy albums. Sadly bassist Dusty Hill died in 2021. Great band. What are your favourite ZZ Top albums?

Post your top 4 albums by your favourite band/artist- to the surprise of no one. There’s a load of bands I could have chosen- Zeppelin, Purple, Dio ( and his associated bands), Rush, Rory Gallagher etc. But I’ve gone for Iron Maiden.

Chinatown-Snowy White replaces Gary Moore along with uncredited keyboard player Darren Wharton. By all accounts the sessions were difficult due to the excesses. Some top tracks including Chinatown, We Will Be Strong, Killer On The Lose, but IMO patchy. How do you rate this ?

Morning rockers. First listen this morning is Deep Purple In Rock. A belter of an album. Child In Time, Speed King, Flight Of The Rat, Blood Sucker, Into The Fire etc. The clever play on the album title and artwork just add to its brilliance.

Morning peeps. In the cans at 5.30am it’s Kiss’s first album. A lot of hate for this band. Kiss have released some duffers, but I’m a fan of their 70’s albums especially. This one has classics like Strutter, Firehouse, Cold Gin, Deuce, Black Diamond etc. Keep rocking 🎸 🎸🎸

Morning ladies and gents. In the cans this morning is No Heavy Petting by UFO. An overlooked album. Some strong songs - Natural Thing, I’m A Loser & the brilliant Martian Landscape co written by Argentinian keyboardist Danny Peyronal. Have a good Tuesday. 🎸
