Stu’s Track Of The Week 03/05/16

rsz_blink-182-bored-to-death-comeback-new-single-mark-hoppus-matt-skiba-new-album-california-compressed

So it’s time for my again for my track of the week and thought it was only fitting for it to be the new track from Blink 182 – Bored to Death. This is the first track they have released with Matt Skiba from Alkaline trio on guitar and vocals after the less amicable departure of Tom DeLonge last year.

I’m liking what I hear from the band on this new track and early looking forward to the album being released on the 1st of July 2016 but for now please enjoy my track of the week.

Stu’s Track Of The Week 26/04/16

rsz_72379-l-lo

So it’s time for my track of the week and this week I have chosen a track from a documentary called Sound city in which a group of well know musicians put together a soundtrack. The track I have chosen is called From Can to Can’t and features Corey Taylor (Slipknot) Dave Grohl (Nirvana/Foo Fighters) Rick Nielsen (Cheap Trick) and Scott Reeder (Kyuss) I really like this track due to Taylor’s vocal range and the musicianship that is backing him up which makes it an all round winner in my book.

Hope you all enjoy the track as much as I do.

Stu’s Track of the week 21/04/16

rsz_hqdefault

It’s time for my track of the week and this weeks pick is Rancid – Ruby Soho from the album And out come the Wolves the reason for the title of the album is due to the popularity and catchy songs started off a bidding war with the major record labels. I have also been getting back into my Punk music recently and this track always manages to bring a smile to my face and about chilling out with mates in the sunshine having a few cold beers.

On This Day 21st April 2016

wp-1461215037312.jpeg

Hey and welcome back to this weeks edition of On This Day, this week kicks off in 1958 through to 2015, so we have a bit to get through so lets get it started.

1958,
US country music singer Marvin Rainwater was at No. 1 on the UK singles chart with ‘Whole Lotta Woman’. Rainwater was a full-blooded Cherokee Indian, known for wearing Native American-themed outfits on stage.

1962,
Elvis Presley started a two-week run at No. 1 on the US singles chart with ‘Good Luck Charm’, his fifth US No. 1 of the 60’s. Also an UK No. 1 hit.

1967,
Working at Abbey Road studios in London, The Beatles completed the sessions for Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. The final recordings were a short section gibberish and noise which would follow ‘A Day in the Life’, in the run-out groove. They recorded assorted noises and voices, which engineer Geoff Emerick then cut-up and randomly re-assembled and edits backwards. At John Lennon’s suggestion, they also added a high-pitch 15 kilocycle whistle audible only by dogs. These were omitted from the American version of the album. How very odd!!

1969,
Janis Joplin appeared at The Royal Albert Hall, London, which was her first London appearance. The opening act was Yes.

1970,
Tyrannosaurus Rex, Spooky Tooth, Jackie Lomax, Elton John who made his solo concert debut and Heavy Jelly all appeared at The Roundhouse, London, tickets cost 25 shillings.

1973,
Tony Orlando & Dawn started a four-week run at No. 1 on the US singles chart with ‘Tie A Yellow Ribbon Round The Old Oak Tree’, it bacame the biggest seller of 1973, selling over 6 million copies. The song was based on a true story of prisoner who wrote to his wife asking her to tie a yellow ribbon around an oak tree in the town square in White Oak, Georgia, if she still loved him.

1976,
Women Against Violence Against Women called for a boycott of all Warner Communications albums because of the promotional campaign for The Rolling Stones’ new album Black and Blue. The album was being promoted with a controversial advertising campaign that depicted the model Anita Russell, bruised and bound, under the phrase ‘ I’m Black and Blue from the Rolling Stones – and I love it!’

1978,
UK folk singer Sandy Denny died aged 31. While on holiday with her parents in Cornwall, England, Danny was injured in a fall down a staircase. A month after the fall she collapsed at a friend’s home; four days later she died in hospital, her death was ruled to be the result of a traumatic mid-brain hemorrhage. She was a member of Fairport Convention and a solo artist. Her 1967 song ‘Who Knows Where the Times Goes’, was covered by Judy Collins. Denny sang on the Led Zeppelin track ‘Battle Of Evermore’ on the bands fourth album, she was the only guest vocalist on a Led Zeppelin album. Now that’s an honor to be the only person to do guest vocals for one of the greatest bands on earth!

1979,
Amii Stewart went to No. 1 on the US singles chart with ‘Knock On Wood’, it made No. 6 in the UK the same year and No. 7 when re-issued in 1985.

1982,
Clash front man Joe Strummer disappeared for three weeks, which resulted in the group cancelling a tour. The singer was found living rough in Paris France. What the?? It must of been a hell of a party or trip or possibly both to be found living rough in Paris.

1984,
Phil Collins started a three-week run at No. 1 in the US singles chart with the theme from ‘Against All Odds’. It was Phil’s first US No. 1, a No. 2 in the UK.

The video was shot in Paris, and consists almost solely of a close-up on O’Connor’s face as she sings the lyrics. Towards the end of the video, two tears roll down her face. The clip won Best Video at the 1990 MTV Video Music Awards – the first video by a female artist to win in this category.

1993,
Former Rolling Stone Bill Wyman married for the third time when he tied the knot with 33-year-old fashion designer Suzanne Accosta in medieval French village of Saint-Paul-de-Vence.

Calvin Harris made chart history by becoming the first artist to have eight top 10 hits from one studio album. His tracks ‘I Need Your Love’, featuring Ellie Goulding, climbed to No. 7 on the Official UK Chart. The DJ and producer from Dumfries, Scotland had overtaken Michael Jackson, who previously held the record with seven top 10 hits from both his 1987 album Bad and his 1991 record Dangerous.

2014,
Robin Thicke’s controversial hit single Blurred Lines was named the UK’s most-download song of all time. The song had sold 1.54 million copies since it was released in May 2013, despite criticism of its explicit lyrics. About 20 university student unions banned the track, saying it promoted “date rape culture”, an accusation Thicke consistently denied.

2015,
Phil Rudd, drummer of AC/DC, changed his plea to guilty on a charge of a threat to kill, in a court in Tauranga, New Zealand. The court heard Rudd was unhappy about his album’s launch party and asked for a former employee to be “taken out”. He had previously denied the charge.
