JOHN WETTON - The Smile Has Left Your Eyes

Geoff Downes' sentences on the death of John Wetton, which do not conceal the difficult character of his friend, clearly show that the rock guild has not only lost a creative musician, but also a man with rough edges, who often did not mince his words. It is no coincidence that one of his solo albums is called "Battle Lines" (1994). When I talked to him about two years ago on the occasion of the last Asia album "Gravitas", he could hardly stop himself from commenting on the performances of the previous guitarist Steve Howe in the last Asia years after the reunion.

BLACK STAR RIDERS - Under heavy fire

When the Black Star Riders emerged from Thin Lizzy in December 2012, skepticism was called for: Would the last Lizzy version - minus drummer Brian Downey and keyboarder Darren Wharton, but with original Lizzy Scott Gorham and songwriter team Damon Johnson/Ricky Warwick - exist as an independent band? "All Hell Breaks Loose" (2013) wiped away all concerns in May 2013. Not denying the band's origin, the riders created a hookline-saturated hard rock album. "The Killer Instinct" (2015) finally made it clear that they weren't a flash in the pan.

WILLE AND THE BANDITS - The Real Life

The man is always on the move, but there is no whining, there is whining: Wille Edwards is a rough-and-ready singer à la John Mellencamp, guitarist in best Ry-Cooder manner and mastermind of the trio Wille And The Bandits founded in 2007. "I am an urban hippie despite my beloved wife and equally beloved two-year-old daughter," laughs the 33-year-old. "It's incredible fun for me to stand on a stage somewhere in the world every evening to confront myself with myself for two hours. That's a lot of work. And it is the most beautiful state I know of, packed with emotions, energy, ecstasy.

The gentle shaman - To the death of the "human rhythm machine" JAKI LIEBEZEIT

The prophet has no honor in his own country. When on Monday, January 23, the news of the death of Jaki Liebezeits the day before went through the media, many Germans heard this name for the first time. After all, now they've even heard him. The percussionist and drum philosopher Jaki Liebezeit was no less than one of the most influential German musicians of the 20th century.

WOLVESPIRIT have recorded an album full of love with "Blue Eyes

WolveSpirit continue to live their dream of the rock commune. Guitarist Rio and his organ-playing brother Oliver Eberlein still live with their singer, the US-American Debby Craft, in a shared flat near Würzburg - short ways to try out ideas. Founded eight years ago, they first really caught the eye in 2013 with the record "Dreamcather". They captured the rock of the late sixties and early seventies here in an original way. With "Free" two years later, they were able to add another shovel to their repertoire and thus raised expectations for their new album "Blue Eyes".

LET GIRLS ROCK - Rock guitarists in the course of time

With the sampler "She Rocks, Vol. 1", released in January on Steve Vai's label Favored Nations, the guitar virtuoso fulfilled a heart's desire and chose recordings from eleven of the most interesting female rock guitarists today. In addition to the goal of promoting talent, this project was based on the realization that women who play the guitar are still not regarded as serious musicians by the general public.

PAIN OF SALVATION - In the Face of Death

With the album "In The Passing Light Of Day" the Swedish progressive metalers Pain Of Salvation return to their roots after years of stylistic excursions. That they can do this is anything but self-evident: at the beginning of 2014 Daniel Gildenlöw fell ill with a life-threatening streptococcal infection. The singer/guitarist had to spend several months in hospital. In a very personal interview he told eclipsed how this time has shaped the new album and what is currently going on with the 43-year-old exceptional musician.
