"The last track on the album is the brilliant Ian McLagan cover ‘Never Say Never’ - McLagan wrote this song after his wife's tragic death in 2006. Writing the song was part of his healing process. Sadly McLagan passed away in 2014 due to complications after suffering a stroke, he was sixty-nine years old. This is a truly beautiful song with an ocean of emotion pouring from each and every word. A sensational and arresting performance from Sari, simply breath-taking! She definitely does the song proud. I am certain Ian would approve." Today read Steven C. Gilbert's complete take here on Sari Schorr's new CD 'Never Say Never' due to be released on Friday 5th October.

This week's Black On Blues Podcast Track Of The Day is another Blues women special dedicated to the memory of Bluesman, Lazy Lester – who died recently. Music this week includes Shari Puorto, Whitney Shay, Amanda Fish, Heidi Blasmo, Karen Lawrence and Lazy Lester.

Today's Video Of The Day 'We All Feel The Same' is by certified LA guitar legend Michael Landau from his album 'Rock Bottom' released via Mascot Label Group/Provogue earlier this year. 'Rock Bottom' sounds like it left the Morrison Hotel in 1970, got lost in Laurel Canyon, and finally found its way out onto Ventura Boulevard in 2017. It suggests Joni Mitchell’s heady brew of imagery laden words and mystical melodies as easily as it evokes Hendrix, Arthur Lee, Love’s 'Forever Changes' and Buffalo Springfield. It is, however, above all, an album with a singular voice of its own. Have you ever been experienced? Well, this album will get you where you’re going!

‘Never Fade’ (today's Track Of The Day) was the third track from Alice In Chains recent 'Rainier Fog' album to be released, following ‘So Far Under’ and ‘The One You Know’. Recorded with producer Nick Raskulinecz (his third consecutive album with the band) and mixed by Joe Barresi (Queens of the Stone Age, Tool), Alice In Chains (vocalist/guitarist Jerry Cantrell, vocalist/guitarist William DuVall, drummer Sean Kinney and bassist Mike Inez) also recently added a third leg to their worldwide headlining tour. 'Rainier Fog' follows 2013’s Grammy nominated 'The Devil Put Dinosaurs Here', which entered Billboard’s Top 200 chart at No. 2 and debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Alternative Albums, Top Rock Albums, Hard Rock Albums charts and the iTunes Rock Album Chart. Its first two singles, ‘Stone’ and ‘Hollow’, both shot to No. 1 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock Tracks chart and ‘Voices’ hit No. 3. All three tracks stayed on the chart for over 20 weeks!

Founded in 1983 by guitarists Billy Rowe and Fernie Rod, Jetboy touch down at London's The Underworld in Camden tonight to perform their brand of Rock ’n Roll in the 21st century with the same passion that has existed since the very beginning, as exemplified by today's Video Of The Day for the title track of their new album ‘Born To Fly’, which will be released in January 2019. The new album, made by the core Jetboy trio of Rowe, Rod and Finn together with Faster Pussycat bassist Eric Stacy and drummer Al Serrato, is the first full length record by the band since 1990. A blend of edgy Rock ’n Roll with a traditional Blues influence, it is the perfect vehicle to exploit the commanding style of the band’s classic sound. ‘Born To Fly’ is a fine Rock record by any measure, with hints of the band’s 70’s influences and 80’s sound, while adding three plus decades of experience to the grooves. Jetboy is ready to fly again.

Guns’ (Video Of The Day) banner and in October 2017 released one of the most praised albums in their catalogue with ‘The Missing Peace’.
