Happy Friday the 13th!! Nothing unlucky for you this week, but we do have a scary amount of new releases with over 50 ready for your listening and purchasing pleasure. There is only one I am in to this week and it is the latest Whitesnake which is a Gold edition of The Purple Album which has demos from when David Coverdale auditioned for Deep Purple. How cool is that!! Other than that you have Crosses which will be the big one of the week probably and some old favorites with Ringo and Lynyrd Skynyrd. Hopefully there is something for you to hear this week. Thanks for stopping by and let us know what you want to hear this week or what we may have missed. Have a great weekend one and all!!
Whitesnake – The Purple Album: Special Gold Edition – (Saltburn / Rhino Records)
Lynyrd Skynyrd – Fyfty – (Geffen Records / UMG)
Ringo Starr – Rewind Forward E.P. – (Roccabella)
Marvelous 3 – IV – (Marvelous 3)
Crosses – Goodnight, God Bless, I Love U, Delete – (Warner Records)
Metric – Formentera II – (Metric Music International / Thirty Tigers)
Lit – Tastes Like Gold – (Round Hill Records): It has been 5 years since their last album and it was more tinged towards country than the pop punk they usually do. This time they are going back to their original sound…thank goodness. Here’s hoping for a return to form.
Iconic – Second Skin – (Frontiers Records): Another Frontiers Supergroup which is actually getting kind of ridiculous…but is one is featuring Nathan James (Inglorious), Michael Sweet (Stryper), Joel Hoesktra (Whitesnake), Marco Mendoza (ex-Journey, Whitesnake), Tommy Aldridge (Whitesnake). It was co-produced by Michael Sweet and Alessandro Del Vecchio (Hardline, Revolution Saints). Hard to argue with a line-up like that. And the fact Michael Sweet isn’t even singing is a huge surprise. Nathan is a beast on vocals so this should be good.
