The Pineapple Thief Alone at Sea

April 11, 2018 By Dwain Berlin

Here is an amazing band who’ve been making waves on the prog rock scene for a number of years. This tune is a hard hitting tune that starts slow and builds up to a great ending. The recording was a little quiet, so turn up the volume, sit back and enjoy!

The Pineapple Thief have released their concert film from London featuring Gavin Harrison (King Crimson / Porcupine Tree) and Darran Charles (Godsticks) – featuring some special bonus material on the Blu-ray and hardback versions –

Bringing to close an unforgettable 14-date European Winter tour of their 2016 summer hit album Your Wilderness, The Pineapple Thief, led by post-progressive mastermind Bruce Soord and reinforced by Gavin Harrison on drums with Darran Charles on guitar, gave the sold-out Islington Assembly Hall in London a truly awe-inspiring gig on 11th February 2017.

Where We Stood showcases a powerful performance from both band regulars and guests on new tracks from Your Wilderness, including “In Exile”, “No Man’s Land” and “The Final Thing On My Mind”, and of the classics from previous albums, “Nothing At Best”, “Show A Little Love” and “Simple As That”.

Bruce Soord says about the show and release “It was our last show of the tour and our biggest headline show ever. We had 15 cameras, a massive jib, but more importantly – a sell-out crowd! The pressure was indeed on, but it’s safe to say that the stars aligned for us that night and it turned out to be one of the most memorable performances of our career so far.

We’ve thrown everything but the kitchen sink at this special edition blu-ray. It has the full show; documentary footage and interviews; and 2 different 5.1 surround mixes (one natural, one discrete) – all in high resolution 24/96 stereo. It also has our last album ‘Your Wilderness’ in stereo and surround, plus the special ‘8 Years Later’ album in stereo with a brand-new surround mix too. All of that plus 5 acoustic tracks (also stereo and surround) and loads of bonus videos.

This is without doubt the definitive ‘Your Wilderness’ release.”

Marillion – Fantastic Place

July 14, 2017 By Dwain Berlin

One of my all time favorite prog bands. If you aren’t familiar with Marillion, it’s well worth your time to do a little research. This song is off one of their best albums, a double album at that! “Marbles” by Marillion. Beg borrow or steal to get your hands on this album. It’s worth the effort.

Golden Earring Radar Love

May 29, 2017 By Dwain Berlin

Far too many parties saw these guys on the turntable. The first time I heard Golden Earring was at a friends place in his basement “cave” The place was set up for partying and that evening someone came over with two new albums to listen to. Golden Earring “Moontan” and Blue Oyster Cult “Secret Treaties” I’ll post something from Secret Treaties later.

Riverside – Second Life Syndrome

Led Zeppelin – Whole Lotta Love

July 21, 2016 By Dwain Berlin

Found this Led Zeppelin video from the way back YouTube archives. This was when the band was one of the most popular rock bands of their time. I recall hanging out with friends, probably skipping math class, and listening to Led Zeppelin. We may have inhaled, but I don’t recall 🙂

Duran Duran – Ordinary World Live

April 16, 2016 By Dwain Berlin

Filmed at the MEN Arena in Manchester on 16 Dec. 2011, this stunning Duran Duran Live show is the combination of great music & amazing visuals which has been the band’s trademark throughout their career. http://store.eagle-rock.com/duranduran/

Following the release of their acclaimed “All You Need Is Now” album, this concert combines new songs from that release with their classic hits. Whether in the studio or the live arena, Duran Duran are masters of their craft and this latest concert bursts with energy and oozes class in the way that only they can.

This tune is just too awesome. Here’s the studio version – Enjoy!

Can’t get enough of these guys.

Guthrie Govan – Regret #9 – Guitar Solo

January 17, 2016 By Dwain Berlin

This album can be purchased on Amazon – Click here to buy the album

This is the guitar solo played by Guthrie Govan from Steven Wilson’s latest body of work Hand. Cannot. Erase. .

When I first heard about the album I put off looking into it, just too busy and all. At the time I’m writing this post the album has been out for close to a year and this was the first time I had the opportunity to hear some of the tracks.

Hand. Cannot. Erase. is one of the most amazing works of artistic sound I’ve ever heard, a modern masterpiece! True to style, Steven Wilson has blown me away again with his innovative compositions. I love this stuff!

This post marks the first time we break away from our usual format because I want to give each track its due. So here is each individual track broken out (studio version) instead of our typical live versions.
