new Shortino

[Creeps]

There was some cool discussions over the years that Paul Shortino worked his way into. I just saw on melodicrock.com that he has a new album coming out in June. The sound clips are kinda promising. It doesn't seem that he's lost a step at all.

Yes, I'd rather hear a new ass-kickin' Rough Cutt album, but I'll take what I can get. Hell, put him in some kinda new super group.

And for the record, I'd still say he'd be a good fill in for some new Badlands material.

I love Shortino! I've been on a quest to find the Quiet Riot s/t disc that he did, but haven't had any luck yet. With that said, Rough Cutt's s/t album is a classic that's flown under the radar for years.

I'd love for Jake E Lee to come out of hibernation and do something again, especially with Shortino.

Now that would be completely bad ass.

Shortino is great! Actually liked the S/T back in 88 and followed his work from Rough Cutt on (24 years now).

Jake is probably my all time favorite guitar player, but he pisses me off so bad at the same time! I understand a person has a right to his/her own privacy, but I feel like he wastes his talent.

EOT....its funny both of them live in Vegas and I know Paul personally. He is still a KILLER singer and is so underrated. Jake supposedly lives in a trailer and doesnt do anything. I have never even seen him in the scene here. Now I gotta get Paul's cd!! He gave me two other solo cds and they are amazing...one is called Sacred Ground and one is with John Northrup. Both are good cds.
I really respect Paul and am so happy he is getting some press...he still is sick. I have seen him play here in Vegas with his band several times. He should be doing bigger things and hopefully with this cd he will.

Well, let Paul know that he's really well respected on this board. The progpower scene may not be something he's aware of. In addition, tell him to drag Jake's ass out into the sunlight and record something together!

I have always thought Shortino was vastly underrated and under appreciated. The 80's was full of many great singers and even more not so great. Shortino for me was very high on the list of great vocalists. It's great that he is still active and can still belt it out.

Well remember when we were talking about Mandy Lion and his band WWIII (also Jake related) and Many dropped by and posted a very nice message to all his fans here. I even got some private messages from him. Class act.

Yeppers Mandy is cool too!!! Love that guy!
