Originally broadcast last Friday night, today's Rock Vault 107 Podcast Of The Day includes classic tracks used in movie scores. Indeed, you can listen live to Jules and Bob every Friday night at 8pm on 107 Meridian FM. Taking you back in time, they'll bring you tracks that you may know and some you may not, plus they always feature a special year.

Del Bromham is of course founder member and guitarist/songwriter with successful Rock band Stray, however Bromham's roots originate in the Blues (he played on Eel Pie Island in its heyday) and at 7.30pm tonight, Del headlines an acoustic evening at London's Water Rats, along with singer-songwriter/Folk-Rock artist Claire Hamill plus Gibraltarian poet and singer songwriter Gabriel Moreno (Video Of The Day), who has stepped in at short notice to replace Keith Christmas who unfortunately is ill (we wish him a very speedy recovery). This is a great line-up of three extremely talented musicians in their own fields coming together for one very special gig.

Ryo Okumoto, long-time keyboard wizard for Prog Rock group Spock’s Beard, releases his new solo album, ‘The Myth of the Mostrophus’, on Friday 29th July on InsideOutMusic, a six song star-studded Prog extravaganza featuring Okumoto’s signature style accompanied by the talents of a who’s who of Progressive Rock, and his single, 'The Watchmaker', provides a tantalising taste of what is to come, with the heavy rhythm and searing guitar leads of Lyle Workman, along with the thundering bass of Dave Meros, both in perfect sync with the propulsive drumming of Jonathan Mover, underneath the unmistakably classic sounds of Okumoto's Hammond B3, Jupiter 8 and Minimoog synths, christened by the soaring vocals of album co-writer Michael Whiteman, which is also one of today's six of the best Wednesday Rocks! Tracks Of The Day, complemented by five further new and recent releases from Overlaps, Desert Near the End, London Plane, Majesty Of Revival and Wow Sailor featuring Synne Sanden.

"Two fine sets to send everyone home (many via the pub!) happy; it’s what Summer Fridays are for isn’t it?"

October 2020 saw the release of ‘Everybody Moves, Nobody Gets Hurt’, the fifth LP from The Great Affairs, and now, midway through 2022, the Nashville, Tennessee outfit, now with Corey “Rizzo” Rozzoni (Burden Bros.) on lead guitar, have commenced work on a follow up, as the new material finds the band delivering more of the Pop-infused Classic Rock stylings they’ve become known for, albeit with a slightly harder edge this time around, and on Friday 8th July, in advance of the full-length, the band are releasing their ‘StrangeLuv’ EP, which includes three remixes from the last album, featuring the current line-up, plus two versions of the title track, of which the sweet radio edit is one of today's six of the best 'Tuesday Rocks!' Tracks Of The Day, complemented by five further new and recent releases from Black Reuss, Vante, Celestial Wizard, Groom Epoch and Vice.

After first swaggering onto the stage as lead guitarist with Glam-tinged power popsters, Last Great Dreamers, Slyder Smith now takes centre stage leading his new power trio, Slyder Smith & The Oblivion Kids (featuring Tim Emery on bass and drummer Rik Pratt) in an honest outpouring of grit, glamour and emotion, when they release their debut album, 'Charm Offensive', via Ray Records (Cargo Records) on Friday 19th August, ahead of a UK tour as special guests to groove rockers Electric Boys this August, an album that is a chocolate box of sonic Melodic Rock sensations with diverse Pop smarts that offers up a little something for everyone. including 'When The Rain Comes', which is one of today's six of the best Monday Rocks! Track Of The Day, complemented by five further new and recent releases from Noisecult, Corvus Corax featuring Doro Pesch, San Quentin, NIK NXK and Evoking Winds.

"You wouldn’t typically regard Basingstoke as being the epicentre of Blues music, or any kind of music really (apologies if it is in fact home to a unique form of Hampshire folk or similar, tap and spoons maybe) but it is hard to imagine that there was anywhere else on the entire planet that hosted anything that matched the combined talents of these two fantastic guitarists on this particular night, the end of an all too short tour by the two artists. What made it all the more pleasurable was to watch and listen to the music outside of London in a venue with decent acoustics and, praise be to the patron saint of photographers, decent lighting." We took in Eric Gales' London O2 Academy Islington gig in March, and it was so good that our prolific WRC correspondent Simon Green went along to see Eric again on the final leg of his latest six-date UK tour at Basingstoke's The Haymarket on Wednesday 8th June, with support from double 2022 UKBlues Awards winner, Dom Martin, so read today Simon's complete take of the night, plus some great photos and today's terrific Dom Martin 'Dixie Black Hand' Video Of The Day.

Playing songs from all three albums as well as new tracks off an unreleased fourth album, next month, Aussie Rockers Massive begin their "10 Years, Still Massive" tour, and for today's Podcast Of The Day we turn the clock back almost exactly five years ago, when we managed to interview singer/guitarist Brad Marr before their set at the Stone Free Festival at London's O2 Arena.

"Although this tour has been a fairly brief one, the good news is that you can relive the experience from June, with the release of the live CD ‘Blues From The Heart Live’ which includes film of the same concert (with guest appearances by Kenny Wayne Shepherd and Joe Bonamassa) on a choice of DVD or Blu Ray. Enjoy!" That was part of our recent take on Joanne Shaw Taylor's April gig at London's Shepherd's Bush Empire, and indeed today we have Simon Green's review of that very same album, that was recently released on Friday 10th June, plus her 'Summertime' Video Of The Day featuring Joe Bonamassa.

Written in response to a comment left on a Misty Blues' YouTube Channel during the release of 'Fright Car', from their previous album, 'The Hate', released last Friday, is the latest single by the band, featuring Kat Riggins on vocals and Justin Johnson on guitar, that indeed sheds light on this incident to demonstrate how divisive some people continue to be, of which the track is also one of today's six of the best Sunday Rocks! Tracks Of The Day, complemented by five further new and recent releases from A Day in Venice, Stonetrip, Immortal Guardian, Dürtbürd and Black Hellebore.
