On this Day in Music – 19th March

Previous Albums Of The Day

No.1639 19/03/2021

The third studio album by Canadian singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen, Songs Of Love And Hate, celebrates a 50th anniversary today! An emotionally intense LP, no surprise there. Love Joan of Arc, Avalanche, and Famous Blue Raincoat.

No.1292 19/03/2020

The 1974 Tower of Power album Back to Oakland is apparently an important album for drummers to listen to. The Bay Area R&B act are new to me, but their infectious grooves and outstanding vocals by Lenny Williams gripped me by the horn section!

No.925 19/03/2019

The latest Gary Clark Jr album, This Land, is the LP I wanted his debut to be. Clearly more ambitious than Blak and Blu, from a man with something to say. This Land focuses on his song-writing prowess, rather than letting the guitar do the talking. Love Feed the Babies.

No.560 19/03/2018

The 1980 AC/DC album Back In Black was the first to feature vocalist Brian Johnson, who replaced Bon Scott following his death. The LP, recorded in the Bahamas, includes the classic title track and You Shook Me All Night Long. Another rock classic.
