Classic Albums

The Masters Apprentices recorded 'Choice Cuts' at Abbey Road studios in 1971 but due to lack of support from their record company, were forced to return to Australia and missed the chance to launch this classic album. 

Harry Steilus looks at 'Sleepwalker' one of The Kinks' late period gems. Moving away from the concept format back to finely written pop ballads, Ray, Dave & the boys made what is arguably their best album since 1971's Muswell Hillbillies.

Harry Steilus opens the Todd Rundgren vault and dusts off the Adventures in Utopia album. Todd the endlessly fascinating rock wizard is back again with the re-formed Utopia.

Harry Steilus takes a look at Marianne Faithfull's 1979 milestone album 'Broken English' which, coming at a low-point in her personal life, was a powerful work and a turning point in Faithfull's career.
