Richard Townend & The Mighty Bosscats are currently on the prowl for YouTube subscribers, so to give you a flavour of their great Blues Roots music, today's ‘six of the best’ Tracks Of The Day is taken from their last couple of releases. Meanwhile, today's Podcast Of The Day is episode 24 of Rock Vault 107, featuring The Police, Survivor, Kiss, Steppenwolf, Asia and more.

"I would unreservedly recommend this band to you as a live act; although the solos here are a little constrained by time, this studio session is still a fine piece of work and an excellent introduction to what will, for many, be a new band (although, like Blackberry Smoke, these guys have been waiting for nearly a decade to gain a foothold in Europe)." This is part of Gary Smith's take below on Robert Jon & The Wreck's (Video Of The Day) 'Last Light On The Highway' CD, that was released last May.

"The gig lasts just under an hour to everyone’s disappointment, as it is back to Lockdown life as we are ushered out in in a row-by-row in a coordinated manner recalling one of their elegantly funereal numbers, ‘1,000 Whispers’, with its slowed-down tempo Doo-Wop." Yes you’ve read it correctly – today we actually have a live music review for you – when Ivan De Mello bravely ventured out a couple of weeks before Christmas to capture Warmduscher’s socially distanced gig at Hackney’s Earth.

Today we’re playing catch up with our ‘six of the best’ Tracks Of The Day from albums that were released last month by Frontiers Music – the home for both established and emerging Rock and Metal artists. Similarly, for today’s Podcast Of The Day, we also catch up with our mate Bob Angel for his latest installment of ‘Simply Country’.

"Tonight (indeed; this tour), in order to fully mark the milestone, we get ‘Scenes’ in totality. I’ve said before I am a great fan of complete album performances, and DT are no strangers to it themselves, with ‘Images and Words’ having had an ‘in full’ 25th anniversary outing in 2017, along with ‘The Astonishing’ on its promo tour in 2016.” With six winners still to be announced in our 2020 WRC Awards, that was part of our take on Dream Theater at London’s Eventim Apollo in Hammersmith, last February, and the band, who are today's Video Of The Day, have deservedly won 'Best Prog' performance.

Our thanks to Marilyn Kingwill for suggesting today's The Blues Spectrum with Roger McCormick as our Podcast Of The Day. On the subject of the Blues, our Tracks Of The Day take us back to August 2013 and six of the best from our WRC Bluesfest at Leo's Red Lion in Gravesend. Indeed, watch our for a download of both the DVD and CD that will be available to download from our merchandise shop soon.

To be honest, it was a category which we had not envisaged being in our WRC 2020 Awards at the turn of the year! However, as they say, the rest is history and the winners of our 'Best Livestream' award in these unprecedented times, is the Lockdown Music Festival. Well done to them plus all of you who managed virtually to feed our love of live music despite Covid-19. However, at the same time, we pray for the resurrection of our Best Festival award this Summer!

"A great sampler for the avid fan or as an introduction to the artist. Packed with quality songs and musicianship for the ever-growing Blues/Rock female fronted acts such as Joanne Shaw Taylor and Samantha Fish, to name a couple." This is part of Geoff C.'s take below on Erja Lyytinen's (Video Of The Day) latest 'Lockdown Live 2020' CD/DVD, that was released in November.

"The white Tele is swapped for a similarly coloured Flying V for 'Colourblind' with a staccato guitar intro which leads into some choppy Pop Rock whereas 'Take Me Down' is a headbanging chugging Rock riff monster overlaid with Myke's intricate fingerpicking and full band backing on vocals." It seems a long time ago now, but that was part of our take here Myke Gray's Underworld Camden gig back in February, and Myke (Video Of The Day), Kim Jennett and his band, have consequently carried off our 'Best Rock Performance' award in our 2020 WRC Awards!
