Review: Six years is ages for a band to go without releasing an album or doing very much. But for AC/DC, whose work rate has always been ridiculously high, it's a very, very long time. Between then and now, the band lost their lead singer, Brian Johnson, to hearing difficulties in the middle of their last tour, and saw drummer Paul Rudd arrested in New Zealand for 'attempting to procure a murder'. Talk about impetus to finally call time.

But then these are the guys responsible for one of history's greatest heavy rock triumphs, 1980s's Back In Black, released just months after formative frontman Bon Scott tragically passed. So it's no surprise Power Up, another post-traumatic release albeit an act of reunification with now (relatively) healthy Johnson and innocent Rudd returning, is among their best in the 40 years since. A comeback record that sounds exactly like AC/DC should - ballsy, bluesy, boozy riffs.

Review: The latest chapter in the highly acclaimed Bob Dylan Bootleg Series takes a fresh look at the 1997 album 'Time Out of Mind', the rock and folk legend's 13th LP, celebrating the grammy award winning album and its enduring impact 25 years after its original release. This quadruple LP box set edition includes a new 2022 remix of the eleven original recordings on 'Time Out of Mind' by Michael H. Brauer. Also included are 12 previously unreleased outtakes and alternate versions of songs written for 'Time Out of Mind', including demos and unreleased versions of iconic tracks as "Love Sick", "Not Dark Yet" and "Make You Feel My Love", a track that has withstood the test of time to be covered more recently by Adele. A huge offering to Bob Dylan fans that would make a great gift to that super fan you know...
