First recorded in London and released in 1995, It’s A Man’s World went top 10 in the UK where it has sold more than 100,000 copies. It’s a Man’s World featured the UK top 40 singles “Walking In Memphis,” “One By One,” “Not Enough Love In the World” and “The Sun Ain’t Gonna Shine Anymore.”

WELD (1991) is a live album recorded with Crazy Horse after the release of RAGGED GLORY.

'The Devil I Know,' a new album from Ashley McBryde, set for September

Grammy winner Ashley McBryde will release The Devil I Know on Sept. 8 through Warner Music Nashville.

“When it was time to put together The Devil I Know, my band and I did what we always do: got together in the purple building in East Nashville, played through a bunch of songs and discussed where we wanted it to go,” shares McBryde. “We decided to take all the things that people tend to give us a hard time for and turn it up.

“‘Y’all are too country.’ We leaned into that – more country it is. ‘Y’all are awfully rock leaning for a country artist.’ Is that so? You ain’t seen nothin’ yet. ‘Last thing y’all need is another tender, finger pickin’ song.’ Oh? Tender makes you uneasy, cowboy? I hear you. Let’s see how much more tender we can be. We listened to all those opinions and said, ‘I hear you. I understand what you’re saying.’ But sadly, there’s no room on the record for your opinion. We’ll do what we want.”

Continuing about first released track, "Learned to Lie," she says, it "was a hard one; I wrote it with Sean McConnell and Nicolette Hayford,” McBryde reflects. “After it was written, I called my mom to let her know that I had told a little bit more of our story as a family. I said, ‘It’s going to be hard to hear, but none of it is untrue.’”

McBryde’s truth-telling is delivered a little softer in current chart-climbing single “Light On In The Kitchen.” She will be on the road throughout the summer for headlining and festival shows along with tour dates with Eric Church and Jelly Roll.

Out now: ' Mindsets,' the new EP by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts

Rock & Roll Hall of Fame band Joan Jett and the Blackhearts just released their new digital EP, Mindsets, on Jett’s longtime independent record label Blackheart Records. Featuring 6 new songs, including the single “If You’re Blue,” the EP was produced by Jett, Kenny Laguna & Thom Panunzio.

Mindsets marks the first new music release for the band since their first-ever acoustic album, Changeup, in March 2022. Listen to Mindsets HERE and “If You’re Blue” HERE.

"If You're Blue" is both the EP’s single and first track. 

“The last several years have been tough ones on the whole world. These songs reflect the various ‘mindsets’ needed to make it through the day, the week, the year, or the next minute. It’s a way to feel more connected to that big, beautiful, scary world out there, and in your head,” says Jett. “The Blackhearts and I had an incredible experience writing, rehearsing, and recording these songs. Dougie Needles, our guitar player, created great songs from which we built out the EP.”

The release of Mindsets comes ahead of Joan Jett and the Blackhearts’ summer tour alongside Bryan Adams. For tour dates and more information, please visit joanjett.com.

Stranglers box set focusing on 1990s material arrives in July

Over the course of five decades, English rock band The Stranglers – one of the longest surviving bands to emerge from the 1970s UK punk rock scene – have amassed 23 UK top 40 singles and 19 UK top 40 albums.

On July 7, Mercury Studios will put out 'The Stranglers,' a four CD-boxed set compiling four of their 1990s albums: About Time (1995), Written In Red (1997), Coup de Grace (1998), and the live album Friday The Thirteenth: Live At The Royal Albert Hall (1997). These albums, which were all previously released by Eagle Records in the 90s, are now being packaged together for the very first time.

These 1990s releases featured the line-up of Paul Roberts (vocals), Jean-Jacques Burnel (bass, vocals), John Ellis (guitar, vocals), Dave Greenfield (keyboards, vocals), and Jet Black (drums). About Time, their 12th studio album, peaked at #31 on the UK album charts and included hits “Golden Boy” and “Lies and Deception.” This was followed by Written In Red, which includes single “In Heaven She Walks” and a cover of The Lovin’ Spoonful’s “Summer In The City."

Friday The Thirteenth features the band performing at the famed Royal Albert Hall in London. The set list features hit tracks like “Golden Brown”, “Skin Deep”, and “No More Heroes” given a  new reinterpretation as the band are backed by the Electra Strings – an eighteen-piece string orchestra. In addition to their hits, The Stranglers deliver a version of The Kinks’ “All Day And All Of The Night.”

Yellowcard reunion EP 'Childhood Eyes' set for next month; touring this summer

Yellowcard will release their upcoming EP CHILDHOOD EYES on July 7 via Equal Vision Records, marking the band’s first new material since their self-titled album in 2016. 

Reuniting in 2022 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their breakthrough album Ocean Avenue at Riot Fest in Chicago (six years since the band called it quits in 2016), Yellowcard felt a creative shift in that reunion and soon found themselves penning new material in Texas.

"When we got to Austin,” says Key, “we sat down and poured some whiskeys and we started talking about what we wanted to do and what we wanted out of it. We knew we were writing an EP which meant we only got five songs, so we had to really make them special. And I think there was an immediate sense of bringing it back to 'Paper Walls' — the idea that we need to make something that we’re proud of, but also something that gets Yellowcard fans excited about what we’re doing. So at that point, we picked up the guitars and started demoing and, honestly, I think these five songs could have just been on that record in 2007. And I love that."

On the EP, “Three Minutes More” features Pierce the Veil and “The Places We’ll Go” features Dashboard Confessional’s Chris Carrabba.

“When he comes in on that last chorus and you can really hear that Dashboard ripping grit in his voice, it’s just awesome,” says Key.

The first single is the title track “Childhood Eyes.”

“I’ve always enjoyed writing songs where the verses explore the struggle or the pain of an experience, and the chorus tries to find a way out of it,” says Key. “That’s a pretty classic Yellowcard thing to do. But I’m particularly proud of these lyrics, because they’re 43 year-old Ryan writing, not 23 year-old Ryan writing. Because although we knew we were trying to capture the spirit of Paper Walls, we didn’t want to literally recreate it. So instead I got to write from where I am right now. And that’s kind of the mission statement of this whole thing—I found this again and I’m not going to give up.”

Yellowcard is Ryan Key (vocals, guitar), Sean Mackin (violin), Ryan Mendez (guitar), and Josh Portman (bass). 

CHILDHOOD EYES will be released digitally and in limited edition vinyl and CD. 

Track listing:

1. Three Minutes More (feat. Vic Fuentes of Pierce The Veil)

2. Childhood Eyes
3. Hiding In The Light
4. Honest From The Jump
5. The Places We'll Go (feat. Chris Carrabba of Dashboard Confessional)

Queen's Brian May readies his 1983 'Star Fleet' project reissue featuring Edward Van Halen in July

“It’s all here. ALL of it. Every note we played on those two days is right here, on show for the first time. I will take you behind the scenes into that studio with us for two unforgettably exhilarating days.” - Brian May

When Queen took a break for the first part of 1983, Brian May put his time to good use. Waking up one morning in Los Angeles, he decided to phone a few friends and invite them to collaborate on some tracks in California’s famous Record Plant studios. The resulting collaboration was a great success, and Brian would later mold the recordings into a mini-album, Brian May + Friends: Star Fleet Project.

This third release in the “Brian May Gold Series” offers an extensively revisited and expanded box set edition of these sessions. The set is a complete document of the two days, April 21 and 22, 1983 that May spent in the Record Plant, Los Angeles accompanied by top rock music luminaries Edward Van Halen (guitar), Alan Gratzer (drums), Phil Chen (bass) and Fred Mandel (keyboards). The box set includes a 23-track CD filled with previously unreleased material.

Containing two CDs, one vinyl LP, and a vinyl single, as well as other collector’s items, Brian May + Friends: Star Fleet Sessions will be launched as a Deluxe Edition box set, worldwide on July 14th.

A separate exclusive 7” double A-side single, also available on CD comes out on the same day, July 14th, featuring newly mixed single versions of “Star Fleet” and “Let Me Out.” A special red vinyl version will be available exclusively through the official Queen Online store and is available to pre-order at: https://www.queenonlinestore.com/Brian-May/Starfleet/

The July 14 box set release is ushered in with a special stand alone digital single, “Star Fleet (Edited Single Version)” which is available now. The single digital track is available immediately for digital download and streaming.

Brian May "Digital Single Star Fleet (Edited Single Version)": https://brianmay.lnk.to/StarFleetSingle

The original 3-track mini album, released October 31, 1983, featured a full-length take of “Star Fleet,” May’s hard rock re-imagining of the signature tune from the Japanese-made kid’s science fiction series of the same name. The program was compulsive regular viewing for Brian and his four year-old son Jimmy on Saturday morning TV, inspiring Brian’s attachment to its title song, written by English musician Paul Bliss. The album also featured "Let Me Out,” including extensive opportunities for May and Eddie Van Halen to solo.

May says: “If Paul hadn’t written a very catchy song as the theme tune for that kid’s TV science fiction drama series, things would have been different. The signature tune began to stick in my head, and I could hear my own arrangement of the tune developing in my mind. But how to record it?”

“So one morning, I woke up in Los Angeles on a break from activities with Queen and made some phone calls. I’ve told the story of what happened next in the material you will find in this box. The outcome was something I will forever treasure.”

“We did a little preparation on the phone and at home with tiny Rockman amps and earphones. Then we went in. The tapes rolled. My LA neighbour Alan Gratzer beat the hell out of his kit with the fattest, heaviest drum sticks I had ever seen. Phil Chen, a friend I had met when he played with Rod Stewart, brought his unusual style of funk-orientated rock playing to the party, along with his sunny Caribbean energy and humor. Fred Mandel, one of the classiest keyboard players I have ever met, tickled both the ivories and some very technical synth patches to bring the spacey riffs to life. Ed (I can still never call him ‘Eddie Van Halen’ because he more than once told me that he found it annoying!) played the guitar as if it were a piano … tapping and snapping and sliding and skipping around the fingerboard like an electric sprite - always with a cheeky smile. If anything he did was difficult for him, he never showed it. A total original. Pure joy. What an everlasting privilege to play with him.”

Spawning a single in the title track, the mini-album reached No. 1 in the British ‘Kerrang’ rock charts.

The music is a celebration of those we’ve lost. As Brian puts it, “It’s been very exciting to open up the vault to find these tapes where, in the blink of an eye, I’m trading licks with my friends including the fantastic Ed Van Halen. It’s highly emotional, especially since Ed is sadly no longer around. We have since also lost Phil - so the rest of us cherish these fleeting moments together.”

The troupe also worked on an earlier May song, “Let Me Out,” while the set closes with “Blues Breaker,” almost 13 minutes of guitar interplay between Brian and Edward.

As Brian explains, “It was inspired by John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers, the album with Eric Clapton reading The Beano on the front cover. Edward said, ‘This is great for me; I haven’t played like this in years. This is where I come from! I didn’t come up doing tapping and all the fireworks. I grew up doing blues, wanting to be like Eric Clapton and do something melodic.”

Across two CDs, a 12” vinyl LP, and a 7” vinyl single, the Star Fleet Sessions box set houses the proof. Presented in 180g transparent red vinyl, the original LP issue has been treated to a full new mix, executed by Queen sound engineers Justin Shirley-Smith and Kris Fredriksson under Brian’s direction at his Surrey studio from the original multitrack tapes and, says Brian, “cut at half-speed for maximum fidelity.”

The single features two tracks. The A-side is an edited version of “Star Fleet,” with brand-new intro guitar harmonies from Brian. The B-side mirrors the original B-side “Son of Star Fleet” which Brian explains “was a way of including the rest of the original long version of the recording on a 7” record; effectively the whole recording is split between the two sides.”

CD1 Star Fleet Project + Beyond features the single version of the title track alongside full-length album versions of “Let Me Out” and “Blues Breaker.” Also included is an interview with Cynthia Fox conducted on Los Angeles radio station KMET in October 1983, on the day of the single release, and a Rockline interview with Bob Coburn. A live version of “Let Me Out” from the Palace Theatre in LA follows, segueing into “We Will Rock You” and a reworking of the same song’s adored fast rendition. The line-up of May, powerhouse drummer Cozy Powell, bassist Neil Murray, guitarist Jamie Moses, keyboardist Spike Edney and backing singers Cathy Porter and Shelley Preston finds The Brian May Band on fire. Finally, CD1 closes with the full LP version of “Star Fleet,” “just as the day it happened,” says Brian, “as if we were in the room.”

CD2 Star Fleet - The Complete Sessions features 23 tracks that go deeper into that room. The disc boasts a newly-created mix from the entire original analogue session tapes, featuring songs in the process of evolution (some with guide vocals) plus discussion, banter, laughs and, says Brian, “some ‘mistakes,’ if there are such things.” Amps blow, mics break, strings snap – the results take you as close as it is possible to get to the Record Plant in April 1983.

And Van Halen fans, take note: the “Star Fleet” track features eight Edward guitar solos, “never quite treading the same path twice,” says Brian. “Ed was a wonderful soul. Listening to him and me, I feel completely outclassed by him in the studio. But in a very pleasant way – what a joy for me to be around a guy who could do all that. Such a privilege.”

“So, you’ll hear us in the studio trading licks,” adds May. “We’ve cleaned up the mix and now EVH’s sound is larger than life. You’ll hear the development of his solo, which I always thought was one of the greatest things he did… a real immortal classic of Ed Van Halen pieces.”

A badge and a booklet featuring extensive liner notes complete the box set. A poster will be exclusive to box set orders placed via QueenOnline.com, where 180g black vinyl, cassette and picture-disc vinyl albums will also be available.

Complete with a digital recreation of the original 1983 source material’s artwork, Star Fleet Sessions doesn’t just gleam anew. Across 136 minutes of audio, the box set takes you behind the curtain, highlighting the electricity that made the project such a special chapter in Brian’s life and career.
