With all seven members contributing to the process, the album draws fresh inspiration from their template of traditional songs and consummate musicianship. At turns emotional, raucous and upbeat, it reflects the personalities and experience of all involved. Unavoidably there are throwbacks to the past, but this is undoubtedly a modern Steeleye Span record and one that is more than worthy of a place in their esteemed canon.<\/p>\n<p>Our release of the week is <strong><em>Let\u2019s Rock<\/em><\/strong>, the ninth studio album from <strong>The Black Keys<\/strong>, which was written, recorded live and produced by duo Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney at Easy Eye Sound studio in Nashville. This release sees the band return to their early days: lean as you like with no waste at all, this is blues-rock at its finest. \u201c<em>The record is like a homage to electric guitar,<\/em>\u201d says Carney. \u201c<em>We took a simple approach and trimmed all the fat like we used to.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"thumbs_6\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/releases1903.php#r190628_BlackKeys\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover3 alignnone\" title=\"The Black Keys - Let\u2019s Rock\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/190628\/BlackKeys.jpg\" alt=\"The Black Keys - Let\u2019s Rock\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/releases1903.php#r190628_KylieMinogue\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover3 alignnone\" title=\"Kylie - Step Back In Time: The Definitive Collection\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/190628\/KylieMinogue.png\" alt=\"Kylie - Step Back In Time: The Definitive Collection\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/releases1903.php#r190628_AbdullahIbrahim\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover3 alignnone\" title=\"Abdullah Ibrahim - The Balance\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/190628\/AbdullahIbrahim.jpg\" alt=\"Abdullah Ibrahim - The Balance\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/releases1903.php#r190628_SteeleyeSpan\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover3 alignnone\" title=\"Steeleye Span - Est\u2019d 1969\" src=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/img\/rls\/190628\/SteeleyeSpan.jpg\" alt=\"Steeleye Span - Est\u2019d 1969\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>Click an image for more details and to order your copy.
