Listening to albums like “No Rules, No Laws, No Regrets”, which was released by Gasoline Outlaws on 22nd June, reminds me why I first started “NI Rocks” over six years ago. The simple objective being to do something / anything at all to help promote some of the excellent local rock bands that I was watching on a regular basis. At that time I never envisioned hosting radio shows, doing interviews or posting album recommendations, but here we are! My little album recommendations may not carry the same weight or standing as others’ reviews, but there was no way I was letting this release go by without having a chance to tell everyone how good I think it is!

I remember my first musical encounter with Jean Beauvoir being a promotional boxed VHS tape that contained the video for the track “Feel The Heat” that was taken from the Sylvester Stallone movie “Cobra” in 1986. The video had been sent to my uncle who worked as a radio and club DJ and had been passed onto me as it was more my kind of thing!! I think I may only have dumped it recently after almost 30 years, principally as there was nowhere to play it! Anyway, all these years later I’ve now been sent another musical offering from Mr Beauvoir, although the format and technology has changed quite a bit!
Jean Beauvoir and long term musical collaborator Micki Free released an album called “American Trash” through Frontiers Records on 5th June. This really is an album you should check out if you haven’t already.
