There are two NI Rocks Shows uploaded each week on Rock Radio NI. These are the playlists for those shows for the month of October – all of which are still available from the On Demand Player. There are tracks by around 150 different artists on the Shows this month. Playlists for September were published previously and most of those Shows are also available via the On Demand Player – http://www.rockradioni.co.uk/news/rrni-updates/3823-ni-rocks-playlists-for-september-2021.html
I’ve created monthly Spotify playlists for the Friday NI Rocks Show that feature as many of the tracks from each month’s Shows as I can find. There are playlists available for July, August, September and October.
Jim Kirkpatrick will be best known to most rock fans as the guitarist for legendary English rock band FM, but he also has a highly respected career as a solo artist. He also recently joined Band of Friends, featuring two of Rory Gallagher’s principle band members, which celebrates the music of the guitar legend. I spoke to Jim via Skype on 21st October to talk about his recent solo album and plans for a new release as well as about Band of Friends and FM.
You can hear that interview on the Friday NI Rocks Show from 29th October which is available now on our MixCloud page -

Band of Friends play The Empire in Belfast on 5th November and then shows in Drogheda and Dublin on the following nights. Jim’s new single “Dead Man Walking” is released on 29th October to coincide with a new crowd-funding campaign.
A regular feature highlighting some of the best album releases each month. I don’t do album “reviews” - these are just recommendations to check out an album. Simply a few words about the artists and the albums that appeal to me each month. These will be albums from which I’ll have been playing tracks on the Friday NI Rocks Shows recently.
This month album releases from Gus G, Jeff Scott Soto, Heartland, Lords of Black, TAO, The Grandmaster, Devoid, U.D.O., Supernova Plasmajets, Osukaru, Joe Bonamassa, Ad Infinitum & Bad Wolves are featured.
