Sea of Tranquility: The Review Crew – New Album Reviews April 12, 2025

It is a point of pride for me that I made my debut on Sea of Tranquility with a Bon Jovi album and still got invited back!

It was my pleasure last week to join Jamie, Ryan and Rick for the Review Crew:  new album reviews!  I chose two for my appearance this time:

  1. Thomas Polychuck – new self-titled CD (to be reviewed here soon)
  2. Rush – Rush 50 

This was actually my third time reviewing the new massive Rush box set.  Practice makes perfect?

Show highlight for me:  Ryan Skow’s friend’s description of the music he likes:  “Nuclear Fuck Metal”.

Please check out the show and let me know how I did on my most recent visit to the Sea of Tranquility!

Sunday Screening: The Hudson Valley Squares – Black Sabbath ‘Born Again’ vs Rainbow ‘Down to Earth’

I was down in the dumps on Friday night because of the crash-and-burn that was my attempt to play LeBrain Train re-runs.  (Yeah, that’s not happening anymore.)  Uncle Meat saw my mood and recommended we watch this Sea of Tranquillity episode together virtually.

Everybody knows Born Again is my favourite album of all time.  I also like Down to Earth quite a bit.  What do the Hudson Valley Squares featuring special guest Martin Popoff think?  It’s a riveting hour of love and critique.  You have the Meat Man to thank for bringing this to our attention.

Sunday Screening: Sea of Tranquility – Accept – Ranking the Studio Albums w/ Martin Popoff

A huge thanks again to Martin Popoff for gracing our little show with his presence and knowledge on Friday night.  One of the topics discussed was his ranking of all the Accept albums with Pete Pardo on Sea of Tranquillity.   It’s an episode we all enjoyed, even though we haven’t heard all the Accept albums ourselves.

This fine episode is below for your edification.  Please enjoy Sea of Tranquility – Ranking the Studio Albums: Accept (w/Martin Popoff)
