Chris Rea's fourth album, a self-titled release from 1982, was released after a potential fourth album titled One Fine Day was shelved. Three of those songs survive in re-recorded form alongside eight other tracks. In th
Headed For The Future, Neil Diamond's fourth studio effort of the 1980s, was released in 1986. Featuring 'The Story of My Life', a record was planned to be released under this name until Neil's record label rejected it.
Every Good Boy Deserves Favour was one of the earliest Moody Blues records that I listened to, and I still thoroughly enjoy it to this day. Although I don't rank it as my favourite Moodies effort, one of its songs gives
In Bruce Springsteen's autobiography, he writes that Wrecking Ball was one of his best, most contemporary and accessible albums since Born In The USA, and that the album was received with a lot less fanfare than he thoug
Chris Rea's second album, Deltics, features some promising numbers which overall culminate in a further step towards the Chris Rea sound of the mid to late 1980s. In this video, I discuss how I've revisited Deltics recen
Born To Run, Bruce Springsteen's autobiography, released in 2016, is a compelling read, which shows Springsteen typically as the man that sits within many of his songs; a refreshingly honest, reflective soul with a love
Primitive, the third studio album released by Neil Diamond of the decade, in 1984, was a positive surprise for me. In this video, I discuss the context around the album, comments from Laura Jackson and David Wild in thei
Toby is joined by special guest Joe to discuss Gary Barlow's 2013 solo album 'Since I Saw You Last'. 00:00 Introduction 01:34 Joe's Take That / Gary Barlow Journey 02:48 Take That flowing into Gary Barlow's band: Boyband
The Ghost of Tom Joad was an album that on first listen, I just didn’t click with. On this new approach, it still doesn’t hit me in the way that Nebraska, Tunnel of Love, or The River does, but I feel I’ve gained an unde
The last of a classic 7-album run, Seventh Sojourn sees a band at the end of their tether - but instead of arguments and bickering, this album rather projects the opposite - a feeling of calm. In this video, I revisit on
As well as the EP's 'Bittersweet 16' and 'Autumn Leaves', Mckenna Grace has released a number of standalone singles from 2021-2026. In this video, I will rank the 12 singles to date in order from my least favourite to fa
After listening to Neil Diamond's first studio album of the 1980s, 'On The Way To The Sky', some time ago, I felt somewhat flat about this period of Neil's career. Fortunately, upon revisiting his next effort, 'Heartligh
A Momentary Lapse of Reason marks Pink Floyd's first album after the departure of Roger Waters, effectively marking a third phase for the band. In today's video, I discuss my relationship with this album and how it has c
While 'The Wild, The Innocent & The E-Street Shuffle' doesn't rank amongst my favourite Bruce Springsteen albums, I find myself revisiting it just as much as my favourites, 'Tunnel of Love', 'Nebraska' and 'The River'. I
‘Grey’ is Kiefer Sutherland’s fourth album, following ‘Down In A Hole’, ‘Reckless And Me’ and ‘Bloor Street’. Released on 29th May 2026 on Maple Creek Records, this album retains the country sound of its predecessor but
Dressed To Kill follows two great KISS albums, the self-titled debut and Hotter Than Hell. I don't revisit this album all that much and had a pre-conception that this album was weak. I'm glad to say that I was wrong. Wit
The Manchester New Century Hall played host to Kiefer Sutherland's Love Will Bring You Home Tour on Monday 18th May 2026. Toby & Joe (CaptainGoodspeed) review their experience at the gig.
A Day At The Races, released in 1976, was Queen's fifth studio album following up A Night At The Opera. Featuring well-known tracks 'Tie Your Mother Down', 'Somebody To Love' and 'Good Old-Fashioned Lover Boy', there are
Tunnel Of Love, released in 1987, is my favourite Bruce Springsteen album, featuring fan-favourites "Brilliant Disguise" and "Tougher Than The Rest", along with my favourite Bruce Springsteen track, "One Step Up".
