Re: Blackout In The Red Room released today in 1990!

Another fine album Tom Werman brought into the world. I was in the studio doing some fucking thing and the guys mixing that (I think it was Werman's usual guys Duane and John) played me a couple tracks including Why Do You Think They Call it Dope, and it sounded fantastic, weird and fresh. I mean, I...

Re: Super rock Tokyo 1984

How did that talentless hack Michael Schenker get his crappy solo band on this bill? And what in the holy fuck was his singer (RIP) wearing?? I think MS is a great guitarist, but the songs I just can’t get in to. The Schenk is one of the all-time greats! This track listing on here is weaksauce tho....

But take the drums. I literally pasted a wave file of the Pat Benatar original song into the free software audacity.
