Nobody’s fool

 

“Slade,” the undisputed king of the British early glam rock era in the seventies, is a band which is famous for their numerous hit singles. Formed in 1966 in Britain, with Noddy Holder (Vocals), Dave Hill (lead guitar), Jim Lea (Bass, piano) and Don Powell (Drums), they had 17 consecutive top 20 hits and six number one hits on the UK Singles Chart. They have been labelled the most successful British group on the basis of their singles sale. With many ups and downs, they are still going strong.Famous for their numbers like “Mama weer all craze now,” “Cum on feel the noize,” “My oh my,” their list of hit singles is actually too long to be mentioned here. From being inspirations for Nirvana to Def Leppard, from The Runaways to the Twisted Sisters, from Oasis to the Sex Pistols, Slade band members are famous not only for their music but also for their eccentric dressing sense and equally arresting misspelt song titles!!!

Reviewers- Bikash Shrestha/Nirab Kayastha

Ireland has contributed a lot to the rock world. And amongst them all, Rory Gallagher is undoubtedly the finest guitarist Ireland has ever presented to the world. Sadly, his career was cut short by various illnesses and he succumbed after liver transplantation in 1995, at the age of 47 years. He has been an inspiration to many, including Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Jimmy Page, Paul Rodgers to name a few and it is rumored that during his heydays, when Jimi Hendrix was asked how he felt to be the world’s greatest guitarist, he is reported to have said- “I don’t know, go ask Rory Gallagher.” A multi talented instrumentalist, a guitar wizard and blues rock maestro, Rory’s albums had been sold over 30 million copies despite not producing any single.
