Guns N’ Roses
Use Your Illusion II
1991

My first spin of 2026 is one of my favourite albums from the 90s. The Use Your Illusions were a big part of my high school years and I still love em to this day.

Alice Cooper
Dragontown
2001

Dragontown is one of Cooper’s heavier albums. It has some of the Industrial Metal that the previous LP Brutal Planet was built on but not to the same extent. #vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcollector #vinylcommunity #vinylsky #musicsky

Journey
Trial by Fire
1996

The last LP the group did with Steve Perry didn’t do too well due to the lack of tour to support it. Perry had a recent hip surgery & that along with internal conflict killed any idea of a tour. The album deserves more credit than it gets. #musicsky

Guns N’ Roses
Live Era ‘87-‘93

Finally in 2025 we got the first vinyl pressing of the Gunners live album from 1999 that covered the bands early years. For a big G’N’R fan like myself this was a very welcomed reissue.

Victory
Circle of Life
2024

Great melodic hard rock is right in my wheelhouse and that’s exactly what we get here from this German outfit in their 40th anniversary year. Now excuse me while I go bang my head.

W.E.T.
Apex
2025

The latest from the Swedish/American AOR group. Big choruses and hooky melodies. Jeff Scott Soto is certainly a great vocalist.

Fist
Fleet Street
1981

Merry Christmas everyone. After a busy Christmas Eve I’m about to spin a record and enjoy a pint. It’s not holiday music for me though. I’ll be spinning this great classic Canadian Hard Rock disc.

Blackfoot
Strikes
1979

Here’s a band that I believe deserved some bigger success. Strikes is their 3rd studio LP and it closes out their 70’s era. Another strong album from the group that finishes with two tracks that we know well from their live sets. #vinyl #vinylsky #musicsky

The Tragically Hip
In Between Evoluton
2004

The Hip’s 2004 release debuted at number 1 in Canada of course. I was living in the Southern US upon its release but safe to say I got my hands on a copy quickly.

Shooter Jennings
The Other Life
2013

A companion album to “Family Man” but with a darker theme that explores inner conflict. There are a number of notable tracks here but my favourite is “Outlaw You” #vinyl #vinylrecords #outlawcountry #vinylsky #musicsky

The Nail

2024

The Nail is a hard rock band formed by Frontiers music with Grish Pradham on vocals. Cenk Eroglu produced the album and wrote the songs and his two sons Efe and Reis Ali played all the instruments. #cd #cdcollection #hardrock #musicsky

Autograph
Get off Your Ass
2017

One of my favourite bands from the 80’s moved forward in 2017 with their first album in almost 15 years. This time without the great Steve Plunkett. Vocals were now being held down by Brazilian born Simon Daniels. #vinylsky #musicsky

Uriah Heep
Head First
1983

The 2nd of 3 albums by the mighty Heep that featured Peter Goalby on vocals. Where would you rank it in the 3 Goalby albums?

Slash with Myles Kennedy & the Conspirators
Live at the Roxy 25.9.14

This was a coming full circle moment for Slash, getting back to where he started all those years ago. In his words the band was capturing intimacy, energy & nostalgia. #vinylsky #musicsky

Barney Bentall
The Inside Passage
2010

Bentall was a Canadian FM radio darling in the late 80s and 90s with his catchy pop hooks and a well written songs. However his later work to which this album belongs is a more of an Americana/Roots Rock trip. #cd #cdcollection #musicsky

Eric Clapton
I Still Do
2016

Clapton’s 20th album is a mix of covers and originals. He covers some old blues artists, JJ Cale and a Bob Dylan tune. Like most of his later material it’s mellower than his 70’s music. #musicsky #vinylsky

Beck, Bogert & Appice
Self Titled
1973

The supergroup power trio that released only this one Studio LP. It’s really too bad we didn’t get more of a catalog from this group.
