The Little Unsaid - Full Band Tour October 2022 + Festivals
The Little Unsaid is a musical vehicle for the diverse music of
songwriter and band leader John Elliott. Born out of the English indie-roots
scene of the 00’s, The Little Unsaid have built up a solid committed following,
received glowing reviews and gained the attention of national media since
signing with UK independent Reveal Records (home to award winning international
artists such as Joan as Police Woman, Lau, Kris Drever and Eddi Reader).
In 2021 The Little Unsaid released two albums: the full band
& experimental “Lick The
Future’s Lips” followed by a contrasting, intimate solo winter
music reflection “December
Songs”.
Both albums were played on radio and reviewed with acclaim, and
awarded Album of The Month by Folk Radio UK (the number one roots media
platform in the UK). The band has frequently collaborated with renowned
producer Graeme Stewart (who alongside engineering for Radiohead has produced
Oscar-nominated film scores by Jonny Greenwood) and have received several
awards for their work including: the Steve Reid InNOVAtion Award (PRS
Foundation & Gilles Peterson, with mentoring from FourTet) and Help
Musicians Emerging Excellence Award.
The band have played a variety of major Festivals (including
Glastonbury) and their recent UK tour was described as “a soaring piece of sonic beauty…one
hell of a show” (MusoMuso). During the Covid lockdowns, John
created the Relay album project, collaborating on two covers albums with
artists including Billy Bragg and Frank Turner to raise money for the Music Venue
Trust.

now…
All Down The Line – A People’s History of the Rolling Stones 1972 North American Tour
Hear the diesel drumming… all down the line! The 1972 visit to North America by the Rolling Stones was the first concert tour by the bad boys of rock since the ill-fated Alamont show in 1969. The tour has gone down in history as one of rock’s most celebrated, and this book brings together the eyewitness accounts of more than 250 fans as we travel across Canada and the United States with Mick, Keith and the boys, playing 48 shows across 23 states in just 54 days. Compiled by Richard Houghton
Thin Lizzy – A People’s History
It’s been 35 sad years since Phil Lynott passed away. This book takes you back to the glory days of the 1970s and 1980s, with the Thin Lizzy story told in the words of over 300 fan memories of Phil, Scott, Brian, Robbo, Gary, John – and Midge! It won’t be long ’til summer comes…. Compiled by Richard Houghton
Neil Young – A People’s History
Neil Young has been rocking like a hurricane since the 1960s. This book brings together the memories of over 400 fans of the Godfather of Grunge, whether performing with CSN&Y, on his own, with the Stray Gators, the Blue Notes or the mighty Crazy Horse. From early solo success to feedback laced guitar frenzy, this is the story of Canada’s greatest export to the world! Compiled by Richard Houghton.
Slade – A People’s History
For anyone who grew up in Britain in the 1970s, the sound of Slade is as much a part of their youth as wanting a Raleigh Chopper and a pair of platform boots. Slade – A People’s History is the story of the first band since The Beatles to have three successive singles go straight into the charts at number 1. Get down and get with it as over 300 Slade fans share their memories. Written by music journalist Malcolm Wyatt, author of This Day in Music’s Guide to The Clash, and Richard Houghton.
Goin’ Down De Mont
Leicester’s De Montfort Hall has been the venue of choice for live music acts going back to before the days of The Beatles. This collection of music memories of one of the Midlands’ most loved concert halls has been compiled by Bruce Lee Pegg, author of the acclaimed 2002 biography, Brown Eyed Handsome Man: The Life and Hard Times of Chuck Berry.

Robert Plant's "Music To Soothe Your Soul" Playlist Available Online
Robert rifles through his almost alphabetically filed record
collection to soothe your seasonal soul. Expect a few festive nuggets alongside
some Delta Blues. Tune in here.
Robert Plant and Alison Krauss recently released their first new
album in fourteen years, Raise The Roof, via Rounder Records.
Like its platinum-selling 2007
predecessor, Raising Sand - which won six Grammys, including Album and Record
of the Year - Raise The Roof delivers new takes on songs from legends and
unsung heroes of folk, blues, country and soul music.
Recorded at Nashville’s Sound Emporium Studios, sessions for
Raise The Roof began in late 2019 and wrapped just weeks before the world went
into lockdown. “One of my favorite parts of this is the songs and songwriters
that I had never heard of,” says Alison Krauss. “Working with Robert, and with
T Bone, is always a great education in music history.”
Raise The Roof includes deep cuts by Merle Haggard, Allen
Toussaint, The Everly Brothers, Anne Briggs, Geeshie Wiley, Bert Jansch,
Calexico and more. “It’s such a far cry from everything I’ve done before,” says
Robert Plant. “I love the whole kaleidoscope of music that I’ve explored, but
this is a place where you can think within the song, you can decide how to
bring home an emotion. It’s another blend that we’ve got, and long may we have
more of them.”
Order Raise The Roof here.
