*SIGOPS Collection* Missing Persons is an American rock band founded in 1980 in Los Angeles by guitarist Warren Cuccurullo, vocalist Dale Bozzio, and drummer Terry Bozzio. They later added bassist Patrick O'Hearn and keyboardist Chuck Wild. Dale's quirky voice and heavy makeup made the band a favorite on MTV in the early 1980s. Dale and Terry Bozzio met while working with Frank Zappa, and they married in 1979. Cuccurullo encountered the pair while contributing to the Zappa album Joe's Garage (1979). O'Hearn was also a former member of Zappa's touring band, and Wild had played with a variety of bands before joining.

Creatures of the Night is the tenth studio album by American rock band Kiss, released in 1982. It was the band's last for Casablanca Records, the only label for which Kiss had recorded up to that point. The album was dedicated to the memory of Casablanca founder and early Kiss supporter Neil Bogart, who had died of cancer during the recording sessions. It is also the band's last album recorded with Ace Frehley credited as an official member and their first album with Vinnie Vincent, as the initially uncredited lead guitarist. Vincent would later be credited but not featured on the cover of the 1985 reissue of the album. It was also Kiss' last album to feature the band with their trademark makeup until the release Psycho Circus in 1998. ** There is a connection between Van Halen and Kiss.

Wolfgang Van Halen's Mammoth WVH have released a lyric video Like A Pastime, the second single from upcoming album Mammoth II. It follows in the sonic footsteps of March release Another Celebration At The End Of The World, and is backboned by a driving rhythm that takes Mammoth WVH to places it hasn't been before. ** Do you know where the name for the band Mammoth came from? Do some online sleuthing and see what that was and drop it in the comments. ** “It centres around a 4/4-time signature, but with a polyrhythm on top," explains Wolfgang. "I was teaching my fiancé what a polyrhythm is, and I stumbled upon this idea. The kick drums are accentuating it. It’s certainly one of my favourites and a completely different vibe than anything on the first album." Mammoth II will be released on August 4 and promises to be the highlight of a very busy summer for Wolfgang and the band, as a lengthy run of shows in Europe is followed by another in North America. The schedule is a mix of headline dates, festival appearances, and support slots with Metallica and with Mötley Crüe and Def Leppard on the European leg of their Stadium Tour. Full dates below.

Stevie Ray Vaughan was one of the best Blues Guitarists ever. This concert was one of his best live performances and garnered a Lot of attention from professional musicians and fans alike. This concert needs to be given Special Event status. Stephen Ray Vaughan (also known as SRV; October 3, 1954 – August 27, 1990) was an American musician, best known as the guitarist and frontman of the blues rock trio Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble. Although his mainstream career spanned only seven years, he is regarded as one of the most influential musicians in the history of blues music, and one of the greatest guitarists of all time. He was the younger brother of guitarist Jimmie Vaughan. Born and raised in Dallas, Vaughan began playing guitar at age seven, initially inspired by his elder brother, Jimmie Vaughan. In 1972, he dropped out of high school and moved to Austin, where he began to gain a following after playing gigs on the local club circuit. Vaughan joined forces with Tommy Shannon on bass and Chris Layton on drums as Double Trouble in 1978 and established it as part of the Austin music scene; it soon became one of the most popular acts in Texas. He performed at the Montreux Jazz Festival in 1982, where David Bowie saw him play. Bowie contacted him for a studio gig that resulted in Vaughan playing blues guitar on the album Let's Dance (1983), before being discovered by John Hammond who interested major label Epic Records in signing Vaughan and his band to a record deal. Within months, they achieved mainstream success for the critically acclaimed debut album Texas Flood. With a series of successful network television appearances and extensive concert tours, Vaughan became the leading figure in the blues revival of the 1980s. Playing his guitar behind his back or plucking the strings with his teeth as Jimi Hendrix did, he earned fame in Europe, which later resulted in breakthroughs for guitar players like Robert Cray, Jeff Healey, Robben Ford, and Walter Trout, amongst others. During the majority of his life, Vaughan struggled with alcoholism and drug addiction. He also struggled with the personal and professional pressures of fame and his marriage to Lenora "Lenny" Bailey. He successfully completed rehabilitation and began touring again with Double Trouble in November 1986. His fourth and final studio album In Step reached number 33 in the United States in 1989; it was one of Vaughan's most critically and commercially successful releases and included his only number-one hit, "Crossfire". He became one of the world's most highly demanded blues performers, and he headlined Madison Square Garden in 1989 and the Beale Street Music Festival in 1990. On August 27, 1990, Vaughan and four others were killed in a helicopter crash in East Troy, Wisconsin, after performing with Double Trouble at Alpine Valley Music Theatre. An investigation concluded that the cause of the accident was pilot error and Vaughan's family later filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Omniflight Helicopters which was settled out of court. Vaughan's music continued to achieve commercial success with several posthumous releases and has sold over 15 million albums in the United States alone. In 2003, David Fricke of Rolling Stone ranked him the seventh greatest guitarist of all time. Vaughan was posthumously inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2015, along with Double Trouble bandmates Chris Layton, Tommy Shannon, and Reese Wynans.

"Honaloochie Boogie" is a single released by Mott the Hoople. It was the follow-up to their breakthrough single "All The Young Dudes".

Wolfgang Van Halen’s Mammoth WVH Unveil New Song “I’m Alright”: Stream appeared first on Consequence. Wolfgang Van Halen‘s Mammoth WVH have shared the video for “I’m Alright,” the latest single from the upcoming Mammoth II full-length, out Friday (August 4th). The five-minute track is a propulsive hard rocker highlighted by a strong vocal performance from Wolfgang. He shows off his soulful side here, extending notes and hitting some impressive melodic vibratos. And as we’ve come to expect from Wolfgang and his band, there’s plenty of surging guitars and stadium-ready chords.

What’s not in doubt about Wolfgang Van Halen is his copious talent – so much talent that he barely knows what to do with it. He played all the instruments on Mammoth WVH's 2021 debut, and repeats the trick again here, with the depth of his musical mastery writ no less large. His dad, the legendary Eddie Van Halen, pretty much revolutionised what people thought could be done with a guitar – a type of perma-grinning, MTV-era Hendrix – and while it’d be unfair to compare Wolfie to his old man (different times, different circumstances), what’s not in doubt is that the Van Halens basically bagged all the talent genes.

Speaking of the album’s lead single, “Another Celebration at the End of the World,” Van Halen goes on to say that it is, “definitely a song that showcases what people can expect from the new album. It is a high-energy rocker with some fun guitar moments on it. “I also pushed myself vocally and it is a song I can’t wait to get out and play live. I can see it being a fixture in our live set moving forward.”

Greatest Hits is a compilation album by English rock band Mott the Hoople. It was released on 1 March 1976 through Columbia Records. There were some big hits as well as duds from this collection of undeniable talent. " A petty little package this is, and no mistake. It was no secret, of course, that the end of Mott the Hoople was a rancorous, bitter affair. But while former front man Ian Hunter was igniting his solo career with an album of songs which could have been Mott's, did his erstwhile band mates truly have nothing better to occupy their time with than compiling a collection which not only skews all that they really achieved during three years of hit.."

The White Room is the fourth and final studio album by British electronic music group The KLF, released on 3 March 1991. The album features versions of the band's hit singles, including What Time Is Love?, 3 a.m. Eternal, and Last Train to Trancentral. Originally scheduled for 1989 as the soundtrack to a film of the same name, the album's direction was changed after both the film and the original soundtrack LP were cancelled. Most tracks on the original album version are present in the final 1991 release, though in significantly remixed form. The White Room was supposed to be followed by a darker, harder complementary album The Black Room, but that plan was abandoned when the KLF retired in 1992. On 23 April 2021, a re-edited version of the album was officially released on streaming platforms, in a series of digital reissues, as The White Room (Director's Cut), featuring new edits of original tracks from 1989–1990 sessions. Writing for Select, Andrew Harrison praised The White Room as an enthralling album which plays a disconcerting game with the listener's expectations of the commercial end of house. In Q, Iestyn George called the album strikingly imaginative and a more subtle form of subterfuge than previous works. Anthony Farthing of Sounds viewed it as a neat summation of Drummond and Cauty's colourful history – it embraces their previous JAMs-related guises while still updating the Kopyright Liberation Front's corporate identity. Entertainment Weekly's Marisa Fox wrote that the album's diverse music is too rich to be labeled, while The Village Voice's Robert Christgau commented that the KLF like everything I like about house and are canny enough to can the boring parts. NME journalist James Brown, however, found the album insignificant and unadventurous, criticising its songs' lack of direction and hard substance. In a retrospective review of the album, John Bush of AllMusic said that The White Room represents the commercial and artistic peak of late-'80s acid-house. Franklin Soults stated in the 2004 Rolling Stone Album Guide that on The White Room, the KLF became what they'd mocked with this enduring embrace of Euro-trash club culture. They knew their exit cue. Splendid magazine thought some of the tracks to be filler and the album silly in places, but were extremely impressed by the Stadium House songs. As providers of perverse, throwaway, three-minute pop-song manna, they concluded, the KLF were punk rock, the Renaissance, Andy Warhol and Jesus Christ all rolled into one. In 1993, NME staff and contributors voted the album the 81st best of all time, and in 2000, Q listed it as the 89th best British album of all time. Scotland on Sunday listed The White Room in their Essential 100, and readers of Scotland's Is this music? magazine voted the album the 44th best Scottish LP of all time. The White Room is included in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.
