With The Fixx just having released their new album 'Beautiful Friction,' which I just highlighted in a previous post, I thought it appropriate to get the first of my archive interviews up on Marshall of Rock. I had the opportunity to chat with Jamie West-Oram and Adam Woods of the band as they made a stop in San Luis Obispo, CA. for a concert at Mott Gym on the Cal Poly University campus. Listen to the 20 minute interview from March 4, 1989 below. I have a multitude of classic interviews to post, so look out for them! read more...

Twenty-two years after the tour, the Rolling Stones have released the fourth installment of their exclusive digital 'live bootleg' releases, this one a live document of their 1990 stand at the Tokyo Dome. 'Tokyo Dome (Live 1990)' follows ‘'L.A. Forum (Live 1975),' 'Hampton Coliseum (Live 1981),' and 'Brussels Affair (Live 1973).' The 24 tracks are from their lengthy stay at the Korakuen Dome, which took place over most of Feb. 1990 and marked the Stones' first visit to Japan after years of being barred by the national government. read more...

Check it all out along with the setlists from both bands below. read more...
