On Friday 30th October, BMG release British Hard Rock legends, Uriah Heep’s 'Fifty Years In Rock'. This extensive and ambitious super deluxe box set celebrates the band’s remarkable career and was created with the full collaboration of Uriah Heep themselves and curated by founding members Mick Box, Ken Hensley, Paul Newton plus the late Lee Kerslake. Evoking an era when Prog, Hard Rock and Heavy Metal co-existed in an era of glorious, boundary-breaking music, the box set traces the evolution of Uriah Heep from inexperienced studio musicians with everything to prove to bona fide limo inhabiting Rock stars. Uriah Heep continue to tour until this day with founding member Mick Box, while Ken Hensley tours extensively as a successful solo artist. 'Fifty Years In Rock' is a fitting celebration to the unique and often imitated but never equalled Uriah Heep.

Just when you thought this year could not get any worse, Eddie Van Halen, guitarist and co-founder of Van Halen, died yesterday of throat cancer at the age of 65. Today's Video Of The Day is dedicated to the Dutch-American musician, and if one song could ever sum up the electric energy of Eddie and Van Halen, then it just has to be 'Jump'. RIP Eddie.

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of their classic album ‘Crazy World’ and its worldwide smash hit single ‘Wind Of Change’, lynchpin Scorpions members Klaus Meine, Rudolf Schenker and Matthias Jabs, have all given extensive and exclusive interviews to Rock Candy Mag for a huge 16-page cover story feature. Together with respected musician and lyricist Jim Vallance – who co-wrote 7 of the album’s 11 tracks – Meine, Schenker and Jabs open up like never before to reveal in forensic detail how the ‘Crazy World’ project came together. Of course ‘Wind Of Change’ went on to become the Scorpions’ biggest ever hit, becoming a worldwide anthem for the changing political times of 1990 when the Soviet bloc collapsed. With the Scorpions currently working on a new album, Rock Candy Mag’s cover story provides a must-read look back at a key moment in this legendary band’s history.

Released in August, today's Video Of The Day, ‘Chloe’, sees Jonny Ong make use of biblical metaphor in his indictment of a manipulative woman from his past. Featuring a hazy instrumentation which calls to mind the innovative guitar techniques of Link Wray, ‘Chloe’ is the finest of Ong’s releases so far, bringing East and West together, consequently illustrating his pioneering mix of Singapoerean-influenced Folk Rock. Following in the footsteps of ‘Fools’, this is another clear indication of the kind of sophisticated songwriting that Ong is capable of, even when tackling the most painful of subject matters.

Following their eponymously named debut album in 2019, mysterious Art Punk Rockers, The Imbeciles, return on Friday 30th October with a new self-released six-track EP entitled ‘Dissolution Sessions’, that features a new band line-up, a different sound plus today's Track Of The Day, 'Yes I Am', which gives you a taste of the new EP. It's a Foo Fighters/STP/Stooges-style Garage Punk banger, but played on Imbeciles terms - with the video intro tackling the bands recent line-up changes before one note leads and guitar scrapes, with off-beat stabs and a Pop Punk drum track that pulls the whole together. The band had originally gone into the studio earlier this year to record a radio session for BBC R6, but that ended up being cancelled because of the pandemic. The result is three new songs and three new editions of tracks that first appeared on the album. In January, they start recording the follow-up with Youth from Killing Joke which promises to be sonically eventful!

A bit like London buses, today we share our second gig photo gallery of the week here, taken once again by Mr. Rockrpix himself, John Bull, at Gallows Circus' Launch Party at Leo's Red Lion gig on Saturday night in Gravesend, Kent. Despite it raining and being a masked socially distanced limited capacity seated gig on the outdoor stage, The Rock Cooperative Presents gig was sold out, following the recent release of Gallow Circus' latest, highly anticipated, EP entitled 'II'.

Tim Bowness released his sixth solo outing 'Late Night Laments' on InsideOutMusic at the end of August, of which his haunting and mesmerising single, ‘Northern Rain’, is today's Video Of The Day. Co-produced by Bowness and Brian Hulse, the song was mixed by his longtime partner in no-man Steven Wilson and mastered by Calum Malcolm, combining electronic soundscapes and acoustic percussion with a powerfully emotional lyric and melody. Melanie Woods (Sidi Bou Said/Knifeworld) and Evan Carson (Kate Rusby/iamthemorning) guest, with Peter Chilvers - who mainly creates visuals for Brian Eno - responsible for the video. 'Late Night Laments' offers a collection of lush, atmospheric songs with a wide lyrical scope and represents the most intimate, yet universal of Bowness’s solo releases. Richard Barbieri, Colin Edwin and classical percussionist Tom Atherton also contribute.

To mark what would have been John Lennon's 80th Birthday this Friday 9th October, Yes will release 'Imagine', today's Track Of The Day, and the first single to be taken from their 'The Royal Affair Tour Live From Las Vegas' album, which is due to be released on Friday 30th October. The track was recorded on the final night of their 2019 tour, when Steve Howe (guitars), Alan White (drums), Geoff Downes (keyboards), Billy Sherwood (bass) and Jon Davison (vocals), were joined onstage for the track by John Lodge of The Moody Blues on guest vocals. Indeed, Alan White was a founder member of The Plastic Ono Band with John and Yoko, Eric Clapton and Klaus Voormann.

"Another cover version in the form of Blind Willie Johnson’s ‘Soul of a Man’ is given a modern twist, while ‘Help’ comes with layered guitar and vocals in an experimental reverb ambience. Closing out, with a return to the Blues, is the down-tempo whisky swagger of ‘Anna Lee’, which has that Jimmy Page feel about it. When comparing the original Simo line-up material, with JD's latest solo offering, it's clear that the new album is all about crossing genres, experimenting with the production and by mixing textures. That has well and truly been achieved! Indeed, “It’s a bridge between R&B and Psychedelic Rock,” as states JD." Today read yet another one of our great Lockdown album reviews, as Geoff C. gives you his take here on JD Simo's self-titled second solo album, that was released in August, of which 'One Of These Days' is today's Video Of The Day.
