CD Reviews Bruce Springsteen & Barry McCabe - Music Worth Buying Episode 84
Mar 28, 2012

Robert Kinsler discusses "Wrecking Ball", the latest album by Bruce Springsteen, and TJ Ramirez talks about "Beyond The Tears", which he calls a blues concept album. The discussion concerning "Beyond The Tears" starts around 07.45 and don't be thrown off at first by the conversation about musicians who didn't make it. TJ is not talking about Barry! He obviously feels the album is about a musician who didn't make it (Johnny) and that's what the lead in is all about. It's worth listening to the Bruce segment too and please leave the guys a comment after you've listened because it's a labour of love for them.

Interview with Mark & Ralph (re: the Reunion CD)
Sep 7, 2011
We recently carried out a very nice interview with Ralph & Mark - the guys behind the sound - of the recent Albatross Reunion CD. It was originally intended to be only for the newsletter subscribers but it turned out so nice we thought it was worth putting it up on the website as well. It's in the blog section.
