Recent reviews

News of the World is one of the album which took time for me to truly appreciate. Obviously the world over knows the combination of “We Will Rock You” and “We Are The Champions”, likely played at every sporting event in recent history, the Spanish guitars of “Who Needs You” and the bluesy “Sleeping On The Sidewalk” are favourites of mine as a guitar player, with “Spread Your Wings” and “All Dead, All Dead” being notable piano based tracks.
