Album

Vive La Fête – Nuit Blanche

The fourth album from Belgian electro-pop duo of singer Els Pynoo and dEUS'Danny Mommens.

Gene Vincent – I Sure Miss You

Gene Vincent was the real deal and, together with his backing group The Blue Caps, fronted The First Gang In Town. With Cliff Gallup and later Johnny Meeks on lead guitar, they, as much as The Crickets and Chuck Berry, defined the sound of rock's classic three guitars and drums line-up. Though originally pushed as Capitol's answer to Elvis, Gene wasn't nearly as orchestrated as the Memphis Flash.

The Future Sound Of London Present – Amorphous Androgynous: The Isness And The Otherness

Post-acid alchemy, with sleevenotes by Donovan

Lynyrd Skynyrd – Lyve: The Vicious Cycle Tour

Filmed last year in Nashville, this finds Skynyrd—now under the leadership of JohnnyVan Zant—still plying their raucous brand of southern blues-rock, wheeling out the hits (notably "Sweet Home Alabama", "Travelin' Man" and "Free Bird") to an enthusiastic crowd. This is noticeably well-filmed with superior sound quality.
