A return-to-form triumph for Deep Purple, and a reunion of the crunchy Raw Power-era edition of Iggy and the Stooges tops this heavy-rocking version of New Music Monday. There's also slamming product from the classic Ritchie Blackmore-Ronnie James Dio-Cozy Powell lineup of Rainbow, fresh Ugly Kid Joe and a long-awaited solo effort from Cinderella's Tom Keifer. For jazz fans, Marc [...]
The title track from If The River Was Whiskey, the first album of new material from 1990s radio-darlings the Spin Doctors, scuffs up the hitmaking formula for familiar tracks like "Little Miss Can't be Wrong" with a snarling city blues vibe. Chris Barron, typically seen as a happy-go-lucky sort before, offers a knife-edge vocal here, even as guitarist Eric Schenkman [...]

Spin Doctors es una banda que dio mucho de que hablar en los 90, y que para sorpresa de muchos, también lo intentó algunos años más tarde con Nice Talking to Me , un discreto trabajo del que no mucha gente habló y que creíamos iba a cerrar la discografía de un grupo que tal vez nunca supimos apreciar. Nos equivocábamos, ya que en 2013 editarán su sexto trabajo. Su nombre, If the River was Whiskey , Si el río fuera whisky , un trabajo del que no [...]

Is it Friday already? Wow, this short week was amazing. We've got a brand new remix from Branded James today that's the perfect catalyst for cruising into the weekend. After a brilliant take on a youthful classic with his Spin Doctors remix, we've been waiting to see what's next from the LA-based producer, and we sure aren't disappointed. This new remix of Cajoline's Only Girl is a choice blend of harmonious house beats with a nice tropical tinge. There's nothing but good vibes coming from this one. And him being so generous, it's a free download [...]

Children of the early 80’s that were –or so we believed– at our prime during the 90’s remember quite vividly the Spin Doctor ’s album Pocket Full of Kryptonite and it’s famous hit single Two Princess . I will not go into details about the things I was trying to do to that song — many times. Well, G Templeton & Branded James collaborate once more to take the original pop rock anthem into a tropical sun-drenched disco groove. Percussions, happy piano chords reminiscent of [...]

Any kid that grew up in the 902s can appreciate the sweet melody that is Spin Doctors Two Princes . It was practically the anthem of the decade. It's one of those tracks that no matter how many times you've heard it, you'll undoubetly find yourself singing every lyric when it plays. Well get ready for more of that because LA's Branded James and G Templeton have teamed up to give it the update it deserves. Latching onto the bright vibe of the original, they've infused it with their pool party ready, nu-disco beats making [...]
Spin Doctors – Nice Talking To Me (CD) So, everyone remembers the Spin Doctors for their “Two Princes” song. Fast forward about a decade, and a track like “Nice Talking To Me” has the perfect amount of classic rock crunch, putting the Spin Doctors alongside acts like Lenny Kravitz without much effort. At some points, especially during tracks like “Sugar”, the perfection [...]

Pero ahí no termina su intervención musical: Judd es confrontado a un duelo de solos de guitarra de proporciones épicas. ¿El resultado? Júzguenlo ustedes mismos:

For the second year in a row, Juicy & The Doctor's Orders have teamed up and put on an event in Manchester to celebrate the life of J Dilla. This was the first of three similar events to take place in the UK this year and it went off with a bang.

The sounds for the evening were provided by Manchester DJs Mr Scruff, Air Adam, Mr E, Illum Sphere, Jonny [...]

With the 20th anniversaries of Pearl Jam & Nirvana dominating the headlines, it's easy to forget that in terms of feel-good pop-rock, one of the most defining albums of the era came out right around the same time. The Spin Doctors sit down and talk to PopMatters all about it ... Say what you will about The Spin Doctors. Whether you like them or not, it's hard not to sing along to "Little Miss Can't Be Wrong". Twenty years since the release of that song and their quintuple platinum album Pocket Full of Kryptonite, a lot of their [...]
