This album is a regression for The Secret Machines – and one that is to be expected with the amicable departure of guitarist Ben Curtis, who focuses now on School of Seven Bells.

While Page didn’t stay as active as Mike, there’s still a lot to look back on since Coventry. Most notably, Page recorded his first solo album, a self-titled effort released in 2007. While Page had previously recorded two albums with Vida Blue, this was officially dubbed his first solo album. Page debuted a lot of material from the album at moe.down in 2006 with a band that included Jon Fishman on drums and a number of other musicians who appeared on the disc and subsequently toured with Page in 2007.

Moving on to this week, we’ve got ourselves another classic album from a different legendary songwriter (with an equally unique singing voice) and that’s Bob Dylan’s 1965 release Highway 61 Revisited. This album was Dylan’s fifth and his first recorded entirely with a full rock band.
As always, to ensure that you can listen to the entire track and not just 30-second clips, please register/login with Imeem.
Like a Rolling Stone (Zero): This gentle rendition of perhaps the most popular tune on the album clocks in at 15 minutes. The entire track is full of the tasteful guitar work you would expect from Steve Kimock as well as some beautiful sax solos from Martin Fierro. Check out this great on-stage tape of the whole show on The Archive.
