Talk Show, S/T, 1997
There are some albums I listen to all year round, and there are some that only sound great in the summer months. This is one of the latter. After wrapping up Tiny Music, Stone Temple Pilots went on a hiatus where Scott Weiland released his first solo album 12 Bar Blues, a strange album. The rest of the band had been jamming with singer Dave Coutts since 1995 and decided to release their debut album Talk Show. I came across it at a record store in Keene some years ago and snatched it from a friend who claimed to
Featured Artist – Taio Cruz
This week on Tunes News, I decided to showcase the U.K. artist Taio Cruz. In October of 2009, he released his third album entitled Rockstarr.

Eminem’s “Recovery”
Well, Eminem has come out with yet another album. I believe that this is his seventh studio album and it is another success! I actually had no clue that he has come out with so many albums until recently, but it does make sense. He has been a stable artist and has continued (minus a 3-year hiatus between 2006-2009) to have a presence in the music world ever since I started listening to music; this is something I will commend him for because he is not someone who went big and then went home.
