Golf's verdict: HIDDEN GEM! Made me wish for time travel so we could have gone back to 1964 and been at this concert. Must be one of the greatest live albums of all time. His 'What'd I Say' is the equal of Ray Charles'.
Maire's verdict: HIDDEN GEM! Made me smile the whole time it was on.

Golf's verdict: HIDDEN GEM! Whilst the name 'Handsome Dick Manitoba' was somehow familiar (he's the guy on the cover and The Dictator's 'secret weapon') I can - once again - state with confidence that I had never heard them before today. It's like a blend of MC5, The Beach Boys and The Ramones and as addictive as crack. Highly recommended.
Maire's verdict: Never heard of them before but thoroughly enjoyed the album.

Golf's verdict: When I was a teenage dirtbag I never listened to Iron Maiden. This was rather good fun though. It seems that in my 40s I seem to be appreciating a lot of bands I missed back then (ACDC, Metallica etc.) Must be my continuing adolescence!
Maire's verdict: I seem to remember liking Iron Maiden for a short period of time when I was about 15ish before I moved back to Indie / goth music. Quite enjoyed it today.

Golf's verdict: Not a classic effort from Mozza, but enough to keep you interested. 'Certain People I Know', 'We Hate It When Our Friends Become Successful' and 'Seasick, Yet Still Docked' provide the highlights.
Maire's verdict: Not my favourite of his solo albums (that's still to come) but Moz is always worth a listen (but I would say that as Moz is one of my nicknames....)
