We ran our metal detector over this week’s rugged rock and roll terrain and dug deep when it beeped. Among those prime locations …
… the secret of Top Gear’s golden age.
… is Bob Dylan a “cold weather concept”?
… why Holger Czukay’s ‘Movies’ is a pivotal record.
… Daryl Hall’s restraining order on John Oates: inter-band fall-out scales brave new heights.
… the ground-breaking ingredient in ‘He’s Gonna Step On You Again’ by John Kongos.
… why Joni Mitchell, Lee Perry and Pink Floyd were early pioneers of sampling.
… the night some loon climbed the scaffolding above the E Street Band.
… pre-McLaren theft of the Burundi Beat.
… the irksome mob rule of the internet: “all bands are now sacred and anyone who says different is a heretic”.
… when an album cover is a “lifestyle statement”.
… plus birthday guests Kevin Walsh and Simon Poulter and best of this year’s rock books.
