Bassist Roger Glover and drummer Ian Paice remember and look confidently into the future

Playlist: New Noises in October
Our playlist in October presents a moving comeback from Tanita Tikaram, stormy pop from Austria and songwriter class of two Canadians
1. Tanita Tikaram “This Perfect Friend”
A chamber pop piece about loneliness and the search for the security of Tikaram’s new album “Liar (Love Isn’t a Right)”, with which the British does a biographical bridge for her debut in 1988.
2. Ron Sexsmith “Easy for You To Say”
The best Canadian songwriter and ballad singer of the past 35 years once again shows on his new record that it is one of the largest of his guild.
3. Miles Kane “Love Is Cruel”
British sophistification meets Americana sensitilism: Miles Kane Black Key Dan Auerbach chose as a producer for his new album. The result is sometimes reminiscent of the kinks of the 1970s.
4. Madi Diaz “Feel Something”
A year and a half after the great “Weird Faith”, the US musician released another album with wonderful folk rock pieces. “Feel something” almost tenderly calculates with an ex-lover.
5. Jerry Leger “Calling a Bluff”
Not only the short intervals between the Canadians’ plates allow comparisons with some Americana giants. “Calling a bluff” is the most beautiful country rock with a pinch of pop and soul.
6. Eleni Drake “I don’t not love you”
Inspired by Mazzy Star and Big Thief’s Adriann Lenker, the British-Greek singer and songwriter succeed in beautifully sponge ballads on her new album “Chuck”.
7. Anna Buchegger “It’s up to you”
Transfer Austrian dialect to breathtaking pop heights is nothing new. But for a long time, no one has embodied this mixture as confidently as Anna Buchegger.
