THE BIG QUEEN POLL: Part One – The 1970s
In recent years, the market has almost been flooded with Queen compilations. We’ve seen ‘Absolute Queen’, three volumes of ‘Deep Cuts’ and most recently ‘Queen Forever’ a collection of ballads with a couple of unreleased bits to tempt the die-hard fan.
The band really pleased fans when they issued the complete ‘Live At The Rainbow ’74’ show, a live set capturing the very early Queen on fire. This release has led to some speculation as to whether more live sets will be issued. We all know that excellent quality footage from Hammersmith 1975 and Hyde Park 1976 exists in the Queen vault, but some fans are currently speculating about an expanded reissue of the classic ‘Live Killers’ disc…
LATTE+ – No More Than Three Chords
Even if their name isn’t particularly familiar in the UK or US, Italy’s Latte+ have attracted a cult following on home turf. With 2014’s ‘No More Than Three Chords’ – the band’s sixth full-length and first English language disc- gaining US distribution, that very much represents a definite step towards world domination for the punk quartet.
Mr T Experience: Upcoming gigs
Legendary pop-punk band The Mr. T Experience are playing three shows in California in March with The Queers. The band gained a cult following throughout the nineties and disbanded when frontman Dr. Frank followed his other career as a novelist.
A new MTX track, ‘King Dork Approximately’ appeared in December.
