Following their successful inaugural tour across Australia and New Zealand in 2017, the pedigree of hallowed ‘60's trio Cream plus –Ginger Baker’'s son Kofi (drums), Jack Bruce’'s son Malcolm (bass, vocals) and Eric Clapton’'s nephew Will Johns (guitar, vocals) –have come together for the first time in the UK to pay homage to the band’s extraordinary legacy with The Music Of Cream –50th Anniversary World Tour. The third gig of a four-date UK tour, takes place at London's O2 Forum in Kentish Town tonight, celebrating 50 years since the original line-up's farewell UK concert at the Royal Albert Hall in London on 26th November 1968. Be prepared to hear personal stories and songs such as 'Sunshine of Your Love', 'Crossroads', 'Spoonful' and 'White Room' performed across a comprehensive set, which will also see the guys interplay with footage of their fathers and mentors on the big screen, along with never-before-seen footage and photos. Meanwhile, Geoff Carne & The Hatz (today's Video Of The Day) are also playing tonight at The Red Lion in Stevenage.

With a review and more photos to come, check out today here our initial Photo Gallery from the Dan Reed Network, Mason Hill and Hollowstar (pictured) gig at The 229 Venue in London's Great Portland Street on Friday night. On a night of great Rock music, not only was it DRN's official launch gig for their new album 'Origins', but we also managed to present both Dan (Best Acoustic Performance) and Mason Hill (Best Support Band) with their 2017 WRC Awards!

The last time we caught the Dan Reed Network was when they supported Extreme last December at The Brixton Academy. Well it was well worth the wait as DRN returned to London last night to headline the 229 Venue in Great Portland Street, for the official launch of their new album 'Origins' as part of their November UK tour. This was also the first opportunity we had of presenting Dan with his 2017 WRC 'Best Acoustic Performance' award following his St. Pancras Church gig in September last year - and unbelievably we had the honour of presenting Dan with said award on stage during his set! Hollowstar and 2017 WRC 'Best Support Band' Mason Hill were also supporting DRN so we also took the opportunity of presenting Mason Hill with their award back stage. Anyway, with a review and more photos to come, check out today's Video Of The Day.

"It was time for John to take a breather and grab his acoustic guitar as Marco took over on lead vocals on 'Lock N' Load. Co-written by and featuring Slash, David loved every second of this, given he's the only current common denominator in the band when the single was originally written five years ago. 'She Always Gets Her Way (All The Same)' - another from 'Make Some Noise' saw the perspiring Mendoza finish up in the bemused crowd, followed by their very first cover of the evening, Creedence Clearwater Revival's 'Fortunate Son' which was also recently covered by Laurence Jones. Lowy and Aldridge duly teased the audience that they're accompanying clapping "could have been better" before Corabi rounded off the electric set by asking Castronovo for "Three Big One's!" Cue - and to our delight - an acoustic interlude which saw all five sitting on stalls with Corabi, Lowy and Alridge on guitars, Mendoza on bass and Castronovo on bongos/tambourine. Kicking off with 'Something I Said' from their 2015 'Revolucion' album, Corabi kept up the relentless banter by asking how many had bought the latest album plus a very funny gag about touring and his pool boy!" Read the whole of AJ's The Dead Daisies and Massive Wagons O2 Academy Islington gig review from last Monday here plus check out our photo gallery here and our Deen Castronovo interview here. Don't forget that The Dead Daisies are at the Winterstorm Festival in Troon today.

"The band return to the UK for a headlining tour to support the launch of the ‘Origins’ album in November 2018. I was lucky enough to catch them at the Islington O2 Academy last time round and their live show is much more than merely reciting their classic tracks. Not surprisingly, there is much audience engagement and quite often on-stage experiments with their music, guest musicians to jam with and general top notch entertainment. So, on the back of this new album offering, will I be going along to London’s 229 Venue in Great Portland Street on Friday 23rd November for more? Well, yes of course! How could I miss it?" That was part of our recent review of Dan Reed Network's new CD 'Origins', and indeed we will be at the 229 tonight to see Dan, fellow WRC Award winners Mason Hill (Video Of The Day) plus Hollowstar.

With a review of The Dead Daisies second London show at Islington's O2 Academy on Monday night in the pipeline, today's Track Of The Day is our interview here with drummer and all round nice guy Deen Castronovo. Currently in the middle of their "Welcome To Daisyland" tour and recorded in between the band's intimate, private “Daisyland” acoustic set and their awesome two hour main set, we not only got a feel of happenings back stage but Deen also discusses from his 'dungeon', touring, their latest album, his favourite drummer, cruising, the weather, the muppets, British musical influences, Journey, radio airplay, the management and being a "Rock star". Also listen out for a classic guitar snippet from Doug Aldridge! Don't forget that The Daisies play Belfast's Limelight tonight.

Sweet Crisis are a contemporary Rock band from Cambridge, and best describe their music as "Soulful and Catchy Rock”! Their musical influences are vast and include artists such as The Rolling Stones, Kings of Leon, Free, Stereophonics, Radiohead and Arcade Fire, to name a few! Sweet Crisis consists of Leo Robarts, lead vocals and guitar, Piers Mortimer, lead guitar, piano and vocals and Dave Cullen on drums. They have been writing, recording and performing music together now for over a decade, and their new single 'Treading In Deep Water' (Video Of The Day) released last week was also Classic Rock Magazine's Track Of The Week praising “A class tune. A catchy, sophisticated mix of piano-led Soul, 70's Southern vibes and Classic Rock & Roll.” Explosive and energetic live, this band are not to be missed.

Steve Kilbey, one of Australia’s most loved artists, will release his new solo album, 'Sydney Rococo', tomorrow worldwide via Golden Robot Records. Kilbey is Australian contemporary music royalty. A prolific artist who has written, performed and produced 21 solo albums, as well as 30 with Rock legends The Church. Indeed 'Sydney Rococo's release date coincides with the beginning of the Australian leg of The Church’s Starfish 30th Anniversary worldwide tour. 'Sydney Rococo' is a collection of songs Kilbey has written over the last 5 years. The songs sing of Sydney and her ocean pools, her underground seedy hangouts and treachery. The picture is painted in every song about life in this fast growing and evolving Australian city, famed for her beaches and landmarks.

We had the pleasure once again last week of interviewing South African Blues Rock guitarist Dan Patlansky whose UK tour kicks off tonight at Nottingham's Rescue Rooms with support from Gorilla Riot. Dan's new single 'Too Far Gone' taken from his new EP 'Live 2018' was released last week. We will also be reviewing Dan's gig at London's O2 Academy Islington 1 on Thursday 29th November, but in the meantime check out our interview with Dan here which is also today's Track Of The Day.
