Deep Purple’sMachine Head was plagued with problems from the beginning. “It’s a project that almost got destroyed before it even got started,” bassist Roger Glover says in a very matter-of-fact manner during an interview with UCR. Frank Zappa was playing a casino gig in Montreux, Switzerland when a fan in the audience fired a flare gun at the ceiling, setting the venue on fire. The casino burned to the ground. Here’s the problem: Deep Purple had booked that same room to record their sixth studio album — and in an instant, they found themselves in need of a new plan. By the time they settled in...

In 2019, Jackson Roemers and Fabian Angel got together to pursue their dreams of starting a rock band and formed StrateJacket. Unfortunately, they had no idea what was ahead for them and the rest of the world. “We played maybe four shows before the pandemic hit,” Roemers told Chuck Armstrong Tuesday’s Loudwire Nights (April 30). “We felt stumped at the beginning, which really lowered morale quite a bit.” Fortunately, rather than letting the pandemic crush their dreams, Roemers and Angel persevered, first by finding a new drummer, Nate Mangle, and then by committing to practice nonstop until th...

It took Joe Satriani and Steve Vai only five decades to hit the studio together, but the guitar virtuosos are making up for lost time. They recently released “The Sea of Emotion, Pt. 1” and are prepping a full collaborative album. Although fans may have to wait a bit before that record materializes, there’s been plenty happening in the meantime. The pair first reunited earlier this year with fellow six-string wizard Eric Johnson to revisit the initial G3 outing that saw the trio team up in 1996. The ongoing Satch / Vai tour quickly followed. During a recent conversation with Ultimate Classic R...

Things didn’t explode for Lynyrd Skynyrd right out of the gate. But when they released their second album, 1974’s Second Helping, it would be a different story — one which was overwhelming to the members of the group.

For Medlocke in particular, he remembers one key moment where guitarist Allen Collins came walking up and expressed with a sense of wonder, that it seemed like they were going to h...

Count Jon Bon Jovi among the rock stars open to the idea of a hologram or avatar tour. In the past few years, technological advancements have helped keep some acts’ material onstage, even though the artists themselves were not there. The most notable examples are ABBA and Ronnie James Dio, who each launched hologram concerts. Similarly, Kiss turned heads at the conclusion of their End of the Road farewell tour, when they revealed that they would continue forth as a virtual band made up of avatars. Asked whether his group would ever consider such a move, Bon Jovi was open minded. “I don’t think...
