More news on Bob Kulick's Maiden tribute album

[Los4words]

Trooper definately is the standout track so far... Lemmy

 

[Keeper of the Seven Cheese]

I liked Evil That Men Do. I thought the Trooper was horrific, I can't see how people can like Lemmys voice its so horrible and out of tune, you guys bag Kotipelto for supposedly going out of tune and your praise that. I don't know your problem.

 

[Goreripper]

I bag Kotipelto. Not sure if anyone else does, but they should. Lemmy is awesome.

 

[Spiff]

I bag Kotipelto, mainly because he sounds like a donkey. Still a good singer, but annoying at times.

 

[The Amazer]

Kotipelto is amazing

"deeestunt skaiiiieeessss"

I'm personally looking forward to:

7. Aces High

V - Jeff Scott Soto (Yngwie Malmsteen, Soul Sirkus)
G - Nuno Bettencourt (Extreme, Dramagods)
B - Billy Sheehan (Mr. Big, Niacin)
D - Vinnie Appice (Black Sabbath, Dio)

8. 2 Minutes To Midnight

V - Joe Lynn Turner (Deep Purple, Rainbow)
G - Richie Kotzen (Mr. Big, Poison)
G - Bob Kulick (Paul Stanley Band, Meatloaf)
B -Tony Franklin (The Firm)
D - Chris Slade (AC/DC, The Firm)

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Lemmy rocks.

 

[The Amazer]

was Kotzen ever as good as Gilbert? I barely know any Mr. Big (but plan on buying Lean into it (or whatever it is called (whoa! inside bracket bracket brackets!)) when I can).

 

[Lord Tim]

Kotzen was pretty good but not even close to Gilbert, IMO!

 

[Chris Brooks]

As a guitar player I've always enjoyed Richie's fusion style and legato and sweep chops, but Mr Big was always better with Gilbert. It was his gig and the band wasn't great without him.

 

[Wrathchild]

Richie Kotzen contributed one of the best songs on the Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey soundtrack. If you haven't heard Dream Of A New Day, do so immediately.

[Spiff]

Do what? Heard it? "Poorly constructed sentence" alert, Wrathy!

 

[Sydo]

And I would never have recognised Dee Snider singing Wasted Years.

I'm listening to the whole album now.. it really sounds like Dee Snider is singing Run To The Hills too.

 

[Keeper of the Seven Cheese]

Yeh the new dude in Mr Big was nothing on Gilbert. I love gilbert's playing and I really only got into Mr Big very recently.

 

[Goreripper]

At your age you only just got into standing upright recently.

 

[Winmar]

 

[Keeper of the Seven Cheese]

Go fuck a pear I'm 17 now.

Anyway I am really looking forward to Flight Of Icarus with Tim Owens on vocals he is a fucking metal god.

 

[Sydo]

Lesbian Maiden fanatics are not going to like this album too much.

 

[Winmar]

Go fuck a pear I'm 17 now.

Isn't that what 17 year olds do?

Why's that, Sydo? Is Ice T a guest vocalist on one of the songs?

 

[Sydo]

Why's that, Sydo? Is Ice T a guest vocalist on one of the songs?

They've made slight changes to the arrangements to extend the guitar solos, or emphasis vocal passages.. It takes a bit of getting used to, and you know what some people are like when it comes to messing with Maiden.
It is good, but I guess you really can't improve on the originals.
