Hi folks, here I am for the Jazz Festival again - 10 days and thirty-two interviews, starting off in a couple of hours with my friend Beth Hart!
I have such a wonderful life!!!!!...
A song becomes a 'standard' because it is popular and therefore heard often. I am even more opinionated about music than anything else in life (hard to believe I know!) and there are some hugely...
There are some bands whose output simply defies belief in terms of the enormity if its impact on fans. For me, its led Zeppelin, no matter how many times I have played their music over the last...
The sub-headline says that Clarkson was offered his Top Gear role "days after Chris Evans was given role ..." and then the text advises he was offered the job "just days before Chris Evans was given...
