Tales from the Land of Zider Zee. Many of us remember or at least read about, the British Invasion. Hell, every time we log onto any social media site there’s a bombardment of pictures of The Beatles and The Stones. They and a slew of other bands from Jolly Ole England were responsible for putting […]

The Crawl. I am surrounded by mothers. They come in many forms, personalities and ages – older, younger, adoptive, step, single, married, military. I know churchgoing, cake-baking, field-trip volunteering, dinner on the table by six, ‘my children are my everything’ type moms. I know pot-smoking, mushroom-loving, concert-going, let your child run naked and free, ‘go […]

GLENS FALLS –  If you haven’t heard of The Spot, you’re missing out on one of the most unique and entertaining new bands in the 518 music scene. Comprised of Greg Auffredou on percussion, Aaron Cook on bass guitar, Tim Daley on lead guitar, Tommy Socolof on keys, and Jay Mullen on guitar and vocals, […]

Deveria interview. We lean over the opened hoods of muscle cars, tossing numbers in the air like 426 and 3.0 liter, and we marvel at how that combination of numbers and constants and forces can combine and take a quarter mile in fourteen seconds. Heavy metal is no different, except the numbers are 4/4 and […]

Andy Hearn, an interview with OP Callaghan. I have a four year old daughter, who is basically my shadow on the weekends.  A busy life during the week often robs us of quality time together, so I try to make it up to her on my days off.  We usually try to get to the […]

Vampires. Did you know the first local vampire came out of his grave at Albany Rural Cemetery in June of 1887? No? Prove me wrong, go ahead. But in seriousness, vampires have clung not only to our necks, but our hearts as well. Christopher Gaunt and Joe Gietl are in the process of raising the […]

Interview with Brian Murray – Dogs in a Pile – by Rob Smittix RRX: You’re on the road right now? BM: Yeah, moving right now actually. RRX: How’s tour life been treating you? BM: It’s been great! It’s been a big year for us. We’ve got like 130 shows so far, that are  booked. Between […]

Joe Lovano and Ralph Lalama. I’d like to pose a question to you, the reader? If presented the opportunity to see Eric Clapton and Joe Bonamassa or John Coltrane and Dexter Gordon or Jeff Beck and Stevie Ray Vaughan in a one time only performance, on the same stage, at a club in the capital […]

Link to the Power Chord column. Welcome to Dunn, North Carolina, Anytown, USA, population around ten thousand. It’s not the kind of place you would expect anything extraordinary musically. There is no Beale Street. There is no Graceland or Sun Recording Studio. It is, however, the hometown of a guy whose influence on rock n […]

Steve Hammond Interview. Watching Ice Queen’s singer and guitarist on his knees soloing over the heavy beat of the father-and-son rhythm section of the thrash band could certainly confound, if you were only familiar with Steve Hammond from his honky-tonk band The A.M.’s or had spoken to the erstwhile quiet musician. Here possessed of a […]
