Souvenirs: Esoteric Reissues Two Albums From Welsh Prog Band Eyes of Blue
The Welsh progressive rock band Eyes of Blue had its share of ups and downs - the "ups" certainly including gigs opening for The Spencer Davis Group, The Move, The Moody Blues, The Who, and Led Zeppelin, and the "downs" relating to the promising group's flameout in a short period of time. Late in 2015, Cherry Red's Esoteric Recordings imprint shone a light on Eyes of Blue with the first authorized CD releases of the band's two Mercury albums, both from 1969: Crossroads of Time and In Fields of

In Memoriam: Glenn Frey (1948-2016)
Glenn Frey's California may have been something out of a dream, a golden land of peaceful, easy feelings, tequila sunrises, and takin' it to the limit. As a founding member of Eagles, Frey spread the gospel of fast cars, beautiful women and eternal sunshine around the world, picking up six Grammy Awards and 24 Top 40 singles, solo and with his band, along the way. With his passing yesterday at age 67, popular music has lost one of its most cherished troubadours. Though born in Michigan,
Review: JD Souther, "John David Souther (Expanded Edition)"
In 2007, a new song from the Eagles blazed onto the radio airwaves, climbing to a Top 10 AC/Top 25 Country berth on the Billboard charts. But the infectious, breezy "How Long," with its classic Eagles sound, wasn't new at all. The song was written by JD Souther and included on his 1972 Asylum Records debut John David Souther. When the Eagles included it on Long Road Out of Eden, the band's first studio album since 1979, it rekindled the creative relationship with Souther, an "honorary Eagle"
