Our 'Video Of The Day' is of an emerging Rock/Blues guitarist/singer and songwriter from the Midlands in the UK. From the age of 16, Ali Clinton has been playing and touring with guitar legend and ex-Scorpion Uli Jon Roth, but is currently trying to move forward with his own career - hence our latest 'Introducing .....' feature. Ali is currently looking at different festivals and venues to try and build his profile and the vid is a live studio performance of an original track off of his new self-titled debut EP.

Following our recent 'Track Of The Day' featuring Rory Auskerry's 'Route 66' - the inevitable tweet from Rory arrived - "Are you guys going to ZZ Top in London on June 24th?" The gig had crossed our minds at Wrinkly Towers but with The Foo Fighters on Saturday 20th and The Who on Friday 26th - was this going to be a gig too far for the Wrinkly Rockers? What the heck - 'Silver' stepped up to the plate with standing tickets so it's going to be a memorable week! See you there Rory - and if any of you out there are going to any of these gigs - then please let us know!

Now that the WRC have completed the line-up for this year's BluesRockfest - WRC member Steve Borkowski has subsequently designed this brand new shiny poster!

Go here for ticket information plus a video low-down on this year's bands.

Can it really be just under 43 years since their iconic performance at The Rainbow Theatre in Finsbury Park, London? Well all roads lead back to London again tonight as Focus are performing at The Underworld, Camden. It's a sign of the times that the band has only half of it's original roster from the 70's with Thijs Van Leer still on Hammond organ, flute and vocals plus drummer Pierre Van Der Linden. Van Leer's nephew Bobby Jacobs is on bass guitar with Menno Gootjes on lead guitar. Support is from The Earls Of Mars - so watch out for our review, pics and vids over the coming days.

Grammy-nominated Blues-Rock guitar icon Joe Bonamassa's brand-new studio solo album, 'Blues Of Desperation', will be released on Friday March 25th.

Naturally a healthy WRC contingent are off to see JB's 'A Salute To The British Blues Explosion' at London's Greenwich Music Time Festival on Thursday 7th July.

A small number of WRC members sacrificed the Thunder gig at Wembley to enjoy a few after match beers with legendary DJ David Hamilton.
