For weeks I’ve been listening to the new 'A Decade of Dio: 1983-1993' box set from Rhino Entertainment and regretting time lost. As opposed to the usual “greatest hits” collection approach to a box set with interspersed unreleased alternate takes, 'Decade' is simply the first six albums from Ronnie James Dio’s solo career, remastered and repackaged with some amazing new artwork from longtime Dio cover artist, Marc Sasso.

‘Introversions’ features 13 songs listeners can interpret in many ways.

'Any Way You Love, We Know How You Feel' is a dream of an album. Continuing much of the spacey jam-rock of the band’s previous three albums, it also breaks rank from those other releases and manages to forge along in a new and seemingly less restrained path.

Radio 94.7 presents its 2nd annual City of Trees Summer Concert Event with Weezer, Panic! at the Disco, and Phantogram on September 10, 2016.

Newly released in standalone DVD and digital formats, the band's final show with founding keyboardist Jon Lord includes classic hits – "Woman from Tokyo," "Highway Star," "Hush," "Space Truckin'," and of course "Smoke on the Water."

Scott Smith’s tendency of combining catchy melodies with thoughtful lyrics makes for some solid tracks.

Immaculately produced and beautifully executed, Your Wilderness serves final notice to the world that The Pineapple Thief is no mere baby Porcupine Tree.

With two original members, and a stable lineup for over 25 years now, the Fleshtones, who began their journey in Queens in the 1970s, are drinking companions for the ages. Even if you can't smoke in bars anymore.

Katie Burden provides listeners with an overall calm and soothing set of songs.

There are hundreds if not thousands of guys across America trying to make music like Butch Walker's new solid-rock album. They nearly always end up sounding maudlin, cheap, derivative, or all three. Walker raises the freshest crop out of this heartland ground I've heard in ages.
