Epic Soundtracks Memorial Concert in Berlin, February 1998

I have recently published a photo story in two parts about the tribute concert for Epic Soundtracks in London. That was held on 10 January 1998. A tribute concert for him was held also in Berlin a month later, on 14 February. But the real date was in fact the fifteenth, as the bands started...

I am a bit late because of other commitments, but here is the second part of the Epic Soundtracks Memorial Concert at The Garage in London on 10 January 1998.

Music Archive is a series, where I write about albums or singles that have been released years ago, too long time ago to be enclosed in the “Reviews” category. Music Archive is thus forming its own subcategory under “Reviews”, even though these write-ups are not reviews, maybe not always even presentations.  They are just stories...

The debut album of The Lords of the New Church was released 40 years ago, in July 1982. I saw them twice in a venue called Lepakko in Helsinki. The year was 1983. I have some very bad photos from the first gig. Even though the quality is terrible, I decided to show them here...

Nikki Sudden and Max Décharné at The Garage, 5 April 1995 – in Photos

Twenty-seven years ago, on 5 April, I went to see Nikki Sudden and Max Décharné at The Garage (upstairs), in London. I don’t have very much to say about that night, so this is basically just a collection of the photos that I took that night. According to my diary, I had had a busy...
