Music Review

This is supposedly the final compilation of archived Hendrix material from the period 1968 through 1970.

Twin Fantasy is a re-imagining of Will Toledo's 2011 lo-fi album of the same name, lifting it to new heights.

Moby still uses many of the similar templates that made Play, his inescapable 1999 trip-hop totem, work: airy minimalist soundscapes, clipped trip-hop beats and his mopey Moby mumble set against soothing female voices.

Grown women could sorely use a riot grrrl movement of their own. Because later life still throws out what a disgusted Tracey Thorn, on Sister, recognises as the "same old s***".

There is a disconnect between the cover of Joan Baez's 25th studio album, showing the folk queen (77) beaming and radiant, and its 10 songs about mortality and war.

It's the first time the quartet behind the seminal Last Splash has recorded together since that 1993 smash with Cannonball and Divine Hammer, and the first Breeders album of any kind in a decade.

On the first line of her new album, Lucy Dacus sings: ``The first time I tasted somebody else's spit, I had a coughing fit.''

Musical legends Seiji Ozawa and Martha Argerich are together on record for the first time.
