    The interview to promote his solo album, which is being kept under lock and key for a while. I received a promo copy today, and it's...different from what you would expect. NOTHING to do with Dream Theater.

    I have a chat with Mike Mangini on Friday...does anyone have questions for him?

    This album is more consistent than Gold & Grey, although it has less standout moments, at least in my first listens.

    Thanks again everyone! June is a busy and happy month at Casa de Rod- mt wife and daughter also have their birthdays this month! I continue to interview some of my favorite artists, but not with the same intensity as I used to. It's still great when it happens though! We're in Toronto, but considering another move in a year ir so . I'll start a new job in August, but before then we'll visit family in Rio. How's that for an update?

    Here's my review of the Klash of the Titans tour - Spiritworld, Death Angel, Kreator and Sepultura: https://www.sonicperspectives.com/concert-reviews/klash-of-the-titans-june-2023/?fbclid=IwAR15_rHaDGOc7K9oi3gAsbjf0vUfo2gI8sNUW2joZ21XVblFweiy1jS3KGg

    It's the galloping bit before Adrian's solo. He switched it around a bit, and I think he's playing that part one octave higher. Also...I did see the footage of them playing that song with Gers not appearing in it. Whenever he plays a solo from the classic period he messes it up - most notably Moonchild and Revelations. I'm really glad he kept his hands off the Somewhere in Time material, except for Heaven Can Wait.

    I like it, but it doesn't have the same impact as the other albums in their discography. Nobody's Fault But Mine is great, as is the absolute MASTERCLASS in heavy metal called Achilles Last Stand. The rest of the album is ok in my opinion, just not as special as the material in their other releases.

    This guy's channel is insanely good. His series on In Through the Out Door and "Led Zeppelin in the 80's " were full of details I had no idea about.

    I interviewed Richie Faulkner two Fridays ago, before this tour was announced. Here it is!!!

    Their net worth is $150 million EACH, because of te deal they made with Guitar Hero. All of them are old, don't really get along, and don't seem to write good songs together anymore...so I'd say it's appropriate to call it a day.

    Sonic Perspectives is way better. Those guys know A LOT about music!!!
  18. Rod in Toronto
    That became even worse during covid. A lot of albums had their vinyl release postponed due to manufacturing and distribution constraints. Two that I can remember were Accept's Too Mean To Die and Deep Purple's Turning To Crime.

    I'll ask him again on Friday.

    Resurrecting this necro-thread to say that I interviewed Kip Winger today.

    In preparation for their upcoming shows in the US and Canada, Helloween members are doing interviews. Here's one I did with Michael Kiske!!! Any views, likes, comments, shares and subscribes are a way to support our site, and costs ZERO dollars. If you could help me with that, it would be much appreciated!

    I would have asked him that. But we had 15 minutes only, and his agent kept texting me "I need to move along to the next interview"...

    Rick is touring the US right now, and we spoke for about 15 minutes. You can read the interview transcript on the link below: https://www.sonicperspectives.com/interviews/interview-with-rick-wakeman/

    I interviewed Mikkey Dee, and we spoke about the new Motorhead reissue, the upcoming Scorpions tour, working with King Diamond, and much more. Hope you like it:
