    LP Review: The Black Crowes’ Solid, Rocking Comeback – ‘Happiness Bastards’

    ByKenneth Corsini March 19, 2024

    I can’t tell you how much we’ve been waiting for this new Black Crowes album down here at B&V. The phrase, “highly anticipated” doesn’t do it justice. Both the Rock Chick and I have been fans of the Crowes since their early days. The Black Crowes, formed by brothers Chris Robinson (vocals) and Rich Robinson…

    Review: Alice Cooper, ‘Billion Dollar Babies (50th Anniversary Deluxe Edition)’ – Revisiting Their Peak

    ByKenneth Corsini March 16, 2024

    I saw that Alice Cooper have released Billion Dollar Babies – 50th Anniversary Edition and while I think there has already been a deluxe version of that seminal 1973 album released, I couldn’t help but comment about this 50th Anniversary Edition. I can’t believe it, but this will be Alice Cooper’s first appearance on B&V…

    Review: The Rolling Stones, ‘Live At The Wiltern’ From the ‘Forty Licks’ Tour (2002) – A Glorious Theater Show!

    ByKenneth Corsini March 13, 2024March 13, 2024

    When I think about artists who have a great “official bootleg” business going – i.e., bands who are actively releasing stuff from their vaults – I tend to think about Neil Young (whose Archive Series is remarkable), or Bob Dylan (whose “official bootleg” series started it all). Or I think about Springsteen who mostly (other…

    Review: The Who – ‘Live At Shea Stadium 1982’ – A Surprisingly Good Listen

    ByKenneth Corsini March 8, 2024March 9, 2024

    The Who, last Friday, released a live album culled from a performance at New York’s Shea Stadium in 1982 from the tour in support of It’s Hard. It seems like it was only last year I was writing about the Who’s live album, The Who Live With Orchestra. Oh, wait a minute that was last…

    Review: ‘Liam Gallagher & John Squire’ – Manchester Rock Stars United For Superb Rock N Roll – Come For The Vocals, Stay For The Guitar

    ByKenneth Corsini March 6, 2024March 9, 2024

    An album I didn’t even know was coming at the beginning of the year – Liam Gallagher John Squire – came out last Friday and I am delighted. I won’t lie, after the sensational first single came out, “Just Another Rainbow,” I had to go back and do a little research on guitarist extraordinaire John…

    Album Lookback: Van Halen’s ‘1984’ Turns 40 – The Original Roth Era Came To An End With A Bang

    ByKenneth Corsini February 29, 2024February 29, 2024

    It’s hard to believe Van Halen’s landmark album, released in 1984 and creatively entitled, 1984, has turned 40 years old. It’s even harder to believe that following that creative peak they – guitarist Eddie Van Halen, drummer Alex Van Halen, & bassist Michael Anthony – decided to part ways with lead singer David Lee Roth….

    A Music Collector’s Journey: From Vinyl to CDs to MP3’s And Now… Back To Vinyl Or Streaming?

    ByKenneth Corsini February 23, 2024

    *Photo of my multiple options to listen to David Bowie’s ‘Aladdin Sane’ taken by your intrepid blogger… and yes, I put my LPs in plastic sleeves… and I forgot to take it off for the photo so it looks like I’m suffocating Bowie with a Dry Cleaning bag… I don’t know where it came from,…

    The 2024 Rock Hall of Fame Mixed Bag Of Nominees – And Our Ballot Selections

    ByKenneth Corsini February 17, 2024

    I glanced up at the calendar the other day and realized we’re back in the midst of another election season. Suddenly I was being inundated with emails, urging me to vote. I take voting very seriously so I appreciated the first ten or twenty emails. It was then that I realized I had to get…

    ByKenneth Corsini February 13, 2024February 15, 2024

    “It’s strange these days when everybody else pays for someone else’s mistake…” Pearl Jam, “Dark Matter” Oh man, I wish I could tell you how excited I am about new Pearl Jam.

    Playlist: In Honor Of Valentine’s Day, Our Favorite (Non-“Mushy”) Songs About… Hearts

    ByKenneth Corsini February 10, 2024February 12, 2024

    Ok, while I’ll admit that there aren’t any “Casey Kasem Long Distant Dedication,” mushy songs on this playlist, there are some mellow and perhaps melancholy tracks… but then when it comes to “affairs of the heart,” melancholy was kinda my thing for a long time… Have no fear, there’s no Bette Midler on this thing….
