Advantages: Interesting flavours and a lovely winter beer. Disadvantages: VERY strong!
I was in a bit of a quandary about how to categorize this following beer ~ I have heard it described as a Barley Wine, an Old Ale, a Winter Ale AND a Porter! The brewery?s web site lists it as a Porter, so I thought I would go with that. It is a strong brew that has made it onto the Moor Beer Company?s permanent list of beers ~ Old Freddy Walker. We got to try it at the Rotherham Real Ale and Music Festival, held at the end of February in the Technical College in Rotherham, South Yorkshire.
~~~THE BREWERY.
Old Freddy Walker is brewed by the Moor Beer Company. They are based in Ashcott, which is not far from Bridgewater in Somerset. The brewery (housed in an old dairy) was founded in 1996 as a small-scale brewery capable of brewing five barrels of beer. The capacity has since increased to ten barrels and the range of beers ...

Battlefield Earth.
Author - L. Ron. Hubbard.
Have read a few of his books and have seen the film, so I thought I'd give the book a go.
The review will be short and concise, so you can probably already guess what I thought of the book.

Album Notes
Personnel: Freddie Hubbard (trumpet); John Gilmore (tenor saxophone); Curtis Fuller (trombone); Tommy Flanagan (piano); Art Davis (bass); Louis Hayes (drums). Producer: Bob Thiele. Reissue producer: Michael Cuscuna. Recorded at the Van Gelder Studio, Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey on July 2, 1962. Includes liner notes by Dan Morgenstern. Digitally remastered by Erick Labson (MCA Music Media Studios). Personnel: Freddie Hubbard (trumpet); John Gilmore (tenor saxophone); Curtis Fuller (trombone); Tommy Flanagan (piano); Art Davis (upright bass); Louis Hayes (drums). This 1962 effort was Freddie Hubbard's first recording under his own name for Impulse (MCA). Fellow Jazz Messenger Curtis Fuller and newcomer John Gilmore color the proceedings with adds trombone and tenor saxophone, respectively. These rock-solid, post-bop horn players are backed by the formidable rhythm section of Tommy Flanagan on piano, Art Davis on bass, and Louis Hayes on drums. Hubbard's shimmering style and clear tone show a clear debt to the late Clifford Brown and a nod to the bold sonic curiosity of John Coltrane. These are some hot young players pushing a classic format forward. The opening track is Duke Ellington's intoxicating "Caravan." The horns play the theme loosely above the dark undercurrent of Davis's and Hayes' playing. The piece explodes into a Hubbard solo that shows why he was the most talked-about young trumpeter of that era. The exceptional quality of his tone and range are amply displayed in his Latin-tinged version of the tender Gershwin standard "Summertime." On the closing track, "The 7th Day," Hubbard and his sextet ride a sultry cool jazz groove for all it's worth and build patiently to some bold exchanges, bowing out with a slow fade.
Album Reviews
