Never underestimate the potential for KC material to unseat those playing it. Red wobbles slightly, and The ConstruKction Of Light has a by-the-seat-of-their-pants feel tonight. Even the monumental Level Five has a momentary shudder in the foundations, but it is arguably the best performance of this entire tour! Elsewhere, it’s astonishing that after so many decades, 21st Century Schizoid Man should continue to register so strongly. Familiarity has something to do with it, of course. This is without doubt *the* best-known track in the KC canon. But it can’t just be that, can it? What the piece has perhaps is a universality that is applicable to whichever era it was performed. A song for the times - whenever those times happen to be.

Rock's longest, strangest trip, the Grateful Dead were the psychedelic era's most beloved musical ambassadors as well as its most enduring survivors, spreading their message of peace, love, and mind expansion across the globe throughout the better part of three decades. The object of adoration for popular music's most fervent and celebrated fan following – the Deadheads, their numbers and devotion legendary in their own right – they were the ultimate cult band, creating a self-styled universe all their own; for the better part of their career orbiting well outside of the mainstream, the Dead became superstars solely on their own terms, tie-dyed pied pipers whose epic, free-form live shows were rites of passage for an extended family of listeners who knew no cultural boundaries. The roots of the Grateful Dead lie with singer/songwriter Jerry Garcia, a longtime bluegrass enthusiast who began playing the guitar at age 15. Upon relocating to Palo Alto, California, in 1960, he befriended Robert Hunter, whose lyrics later graced many of Garcia's most famous melodies; in time, he also came into contact with aspiring electronic music composer Phil Lesh.

This Guitar And Tonight is multi-Blues Music Award winner Bob Margolin's first all-acoustic album. Inspired by his 1935 parlor guitar, Muddy Waters (known for his electric playing) telling Bob 40 years ago he actually preferred acoustic Blues, and Amy Brat's idea that an all-acoustic album would be a fresh adventure, this album made itself. New original songs came easy. His guests on one song each are harp master Bob Corritore and guitar virtuoso Jimmy Vivino. The recording approach is pure, the music sounds right in front of you, no added sugar. No artificial ingredients.

Alexander Gadjiev’s album Legends takes listeners on a journey through the timeless legends and stories hidden within music, revealing its power to conjure entire worlds. In Debussy’s La cathédrale engloutie, ghostly bells rise from a submerged cathedral, bringing a Breton myth to life. Liszt’s Funérailles rages with thunderous chords, evoking a battle against mortality, whilst Musorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition unfolds a vivid tapestry of Slavic folklore and European scenes. Prokofiev’s Légende tells an enchanted tale of light and shadow, and Scriabin’s Sonata No. 9 (Black Mass) immerses us in an eerie, otherworldly soundscape. Franck’s Prélude, Fugue et Variation offers a sublime reflection on the soul’s journey, while Bach-Siloti’s Prelude in B minor resonates like a timeless, universal hymn. The Italian-Slovenian pianist has designed this programme to offer listeners a profound and mythical experience.

André Isoir Isoir served as organist for various churches and has recorded for the Calliope label, including efforts on Franck and Bach.

With close to 30 years of rock history behind him, Andy Latimer choose 2002 to look back on his story so far. Written while he was living in Northern California, many of the album's seven songs (with bonus track, "After All These Years") are connected to Andy's boyhood years in England in the 1950's and '60's. Camel's reputation for never being a band concerned with following musical trends continues here with themes that include the county fair, a love remembered, a mock fox hunt and the 911 tribute "For Today."
The recording has the modern Camel sound with a modest amount of acoustic guitar, the familiar flute, and the more powerful electric guitar style heard on the band's recordings from the '90's onwards. Latimer's gift for memorable melody is here in abundance and there is much stylistic variation…

Come Live With Me showcases Charles in full '70s crossover mode - embracing string-laden arrangements, country-tinged ballads, and soulful soft rock. With a blend of pop and gospel-infused soul, Ray demonstrates his unmatched versatility. The album plays like Two Sides of a Saturday Night - elegant and introspective at the start, loose and electrifying by the end. Side A, arranged by longtime collaborator and conductor Sid Feller, features lush, orchestrated ballads such as Till There Was You and If You Go Away, highlighting Charles's emotive vocal delivery. In contrast, Side B shifts to a more upbeat, R&B - driven sound with tracks like Somebody and Problems, Problems, showcasing his dynamic range and adaptability. At a time when music was defined by the politically charged, genre-blending work of Funkadelic, Sly Stone, Curtis Mayfield, and Stevie Wonder and the singer-songwriter boom was in full swing. Ray Charles didn't chase trends. Instead, he carved his own path, doing something entirely his own.

The 5th Dimension is an American popular music vocal group, whose repertoire includes pop, R&B, soul, jazz, light opera, and Broadway: this melange was called "Champagne Soul".Formed as the Versatiles in late 1965, the group changed its name to the hipper "the 5th Dimension" by 1966.

Ava Max has officially entered her most fearless era yet, one defined by brutal honesty, resilience, and unmatched pop. From heartbreak survivor to self-love icon, she’s not just back, she’s bolder than ever with her third full-length album, Don’t Click Play. In this body of work, you can hear a woman embracing her power and stepping into the artist she was always meant to be. It’s not just an album, it’s a declaration. The project was built during a time of heartbreak, betrayal, and personal reinvention, and it shows. She returned to the studio not to escape the pain, but to face it head-on. Ava says, “But this entire album was made to prove people wrong.” With Don’t Click Play, she doesn’t just push back the narrative—she kicks the door down. It’s raw, it’s personal, it’s the Ava everyone wants. She’s taking it to the max.
