Believe it or not...Bob Wills is the music you hear in the original 1974 TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE on the kids radio in the van!!!

I totally believe that... afterall in his homage to TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, ROB ZOMBIE used SLIM WHITMAN, didn't he?     (Like everybody else, I was kind of disinterested by HOUSE OF 1000 CORPSES.)  I do have THE DEVIL'S REJECTS cued in my DVD player...

I'm listening to AMY WINEHOUSE Back To Black   She's not well.  And she is one of the most incredibly talented artists I've ever listened to. 
    

Now: METALLICA Master Of Puppets 
 

Next: LED ZEPPELIN Presence 

I don't really understand the divorcement of METAL from LED ZEP... LED ZEP to me are the GODFATHERS OF METAL...

Fallen by Evanescence. 
On a side note, I think Amy Lee (singer from the band) has gorgeous eyes.  Eh.


The Very Best of by KISS.
I miss the Kiss Demon.  WCW, a pro-wrestling company owned by Ted Turner, paid Gene Simmons thousands of dollars to perform a small concert on their show to debut a new wrestler dressed like him.  Failed miserably.  I loved it.

Torgo like no EXTREME?  Listening to Pornograffitti 

That's a great album. I actually think that III Sides to Every Story is their best though by an ever so slight margin.

BTW, didn't know if I had mentioned to you about his or not but:L

EXTREME's Saudades de Rock Available August 12th

July 15, 2008
This summer, EXTREME will release Saudades de Rock (pronounced "sow-dodge"), their first studio album in thirteen years which will coincide with their first world tour in over twelve years. Saudades de Rock will be released on August 12th on Open E Records and distributed by Fontana.


The iconic rock foursome - vocalist Gary Cherone, guitarist Nuno Bettencourt, bassist Pat Badger and new drummer Kevin Figueiredo – recorded their fifth studio offering at NRG Studios in Los Angeles with Bettencourt at the helm as producer and mixer. Saudades de Rock boasts 13 tracks, including the infectious roar of "Star," the groove-laden, swagger of "King", a raw funk rock anthem called "Learn To Love", and the expressive ballad "Ghost."

"'Saudades' was always a beautiful word to me," Bettencourt explains about the Portuguese album moniker. "It expresses a longing; an underlying sadness for something or someone that's been missing in your life, and never quite sure if it will ever return. In this case, for us, it's Rock and Roll. Saudades de Rock."

Gary Cherone adds, "I like how it expresses that longing we've been feeling to play for our fans and be together again."

The multi-platinum, Boston-bred band's 2008 'TAKE US ALIVE' world tour gets underway on July 29th at The Chance in Poughkeepsie, N.Y. and will be anchored by a hometown gig two days later at the Bank of America Pavilion.

Saudades de Rock track listing:
1. Star
2. Comfortably Dumb
3. Learn To Love
4. Take Us Alive
5. Run
6. Last Hour
7. Flower Man
8. King Of The Ladies
9. Ghost
10. Slide
11. Interface
12. Sunrise
13. Peace (saudade)

Now, PRETENDERS Learning To Crawl    
 
Bitter about deaths around her, and relationship betrayals, CHRISSIE HYNDE now a star and recognized genius, reformed her band with only half the original four (herself and drummer MARTIN CHAMBERS) and forged the band's second best album, which is saying a lot!!  Remembering her training at the School of Hard Knocks, CHRISSIE went back to Ohio but her "City Was Gone..."  And she advises in a ROCK context how that feels.  When CHRISSIE gave birth to RAY DAVIES baby, but married JIM KERR of SIMPLE MINDS she wrote about it on this album and her own foundering:  "Welcome to the human race... with its wars, disease, and brutality... You with your innocence and grace, there's still some pride in dignity to a world in decline.... Welcome to a special place and a heart of stone that''s cold and grey, you with your angel face... show me the meanin' of the Word... show me the meanin' of the Word... 'Cause I've heard so much about it, I don't want to live without it... I want Love!  I want Love!  I want... Love...!!"
