In tribute to #ChrisDreja, who passed away last week, I’m having a bit of a #Yardbirds rave up on the radio show tonight from 8. Five Live Yardbirds from 1964 is my #ClassicLiveAlbum of the week with Chris and a young Eric Clapton on top form.
Catching up with Brendan from #the4ofus on the radio show tonight ahead of their @Cqaf gig at #BelfastEmpire this weekend. Also new music from @divinecomedyhq.bsky.social & this week’s #ClassicLiveAlbum is #PinkFloyd At Knebworth. Hope you can join me on @bbcradioulster & @BBCSounds from 8.
Remembering the rock and soul dynamo that was #SteveMarriott on the radio show tonight. #HumblePie Live At The Fillmore is my #ClassicLiveAlbum so strap yerself in..it’s going to bow the roof off the radio! @bbcradioulster @BBCSounds #RalphMcLean
Remembering Van Morrison’s epic it’s Too Late To Stop Now for tonight #ClassicLiveAlbum feature on the radio show. It doesn’t get much better frankly. On air @bbcradioulster from 8. Listen whenever suits via @BBCSounds #vanmorrison @vanmorrison.bsky.social
My #ClassicLiveAlbum on the radio show tonight is #JerryLeeLewis Live At The Star-Club Hamburg. RollingStone famously said of it “it’s not an album, it’s a crime scene. Jerry Lee slaughters his rivals in a 13 song set that feels like one long convulsion”. Get ready to convulse from 8!
This week’s #classiclivealbum on the radio show is Irish Tour 74 by #RoryGallagher. A still breathtaking document of one of the true greats at the very peak of his powers. 8pm onwards on BBC Radio Ulster and BBC Sounds.
This week’s #ClassicLiveAlbum slot on the radio show tonight is filled by #TheWho Live At Leeds. Dear god but that album can still shake the fillings out of yer teeth at 30 paces! Proper rock and roll noise!
Diving deep into #TheLastWaltz for my latest #ClassicLiveAlbum feature on Monday night’s radio show. The Band’s big farewell gig with an all star line up of guests including Van The Man high kicking his way across the stage in a mauve jumpsuit! What’s not to love? BBC Radio Ulster from 8.
