Sad to learn that Chas and Dave have split up. I think Dave Peacock has retired but Chas Hodges still goes out on the road with his own band. (or is it the other way around') Anyway, a great rockney band who made some great music in the 80's but success spoiled them and they churned out loads of party records full of singalong hits which is a shame as they were fantastic early on. Wrote some catchy...

Rockabilly.... is that different from honky-tonk, and if so, how? You get a line, I'll get a pole, baby- that seems to be an early version of 'I've got a brand-new pair of roller skates, you gotta brand new key.'

Come on Over Baby This author admittedly suggests that it’s obtuse speculation that Jerry Lee Lewis was a Vancouver real estate bear.

It's no wonder. The mammoth wood coaster at Kings Island is notoriously brutal. In fact, it was closed for most of last season after a passenger claimed she suffered...

Let's look at the evidence... Here's Jeff, a member of an obscure Brummy beat combo who's grown up being heavily influenced by a range of artists, each of which have blended to form a part of his musical DNA. There's...

The record producer and label owner Shelby Singleton is associated with several American hits of the 1960s but he will be best remembered for his re-marketing of the Sun Records catalogue in Memphis. He admitted that he had no great musical talent, but he knew what record buyers wanted to hear.

Via Shocklee comes this story of a company that claims to have created software that can recreate live performances by famous musicians (even dead ones). Basically, the software learns (or so its creators claim) exactly how certain musicians played, and then can mimic that style exactly. Here's how Pocket Lint describes it: Zenph Studio's approach is to work out how the musician and the instrument...
