Guitarist Doug Aldrich Joins the Dead Daisies Richard For Immediate Release GUITARIST DOUG ALDRICH JOINS THE DEAD DAISIES RICHARD FORTUS & DIZZY REED DEPART THE DEAD DAISIES BAND RECORDING NEW ALBUM WITH MARTI FREDERIKSEN IN NASHVILLE FOR SPV RECORDS "The Dead Daisies' all-star cast do a sterling job of banishing hangovers with slick-as-a-vaselined-otter Classic Rock." - Kerrang! New York, NY (January 28th, 2016) – The Dead Daisies are proud to announce the addition of Doug Aldrich to the lineup as lead guitarist of the powerful music collective. Guitarist Richard Fortus and keyboardist Dizzy Reed will be stepping aside to be a part of a momentous project in 2016. Aldrich is currently in Nashville with the Daisies working with producer Marti Frederiksen (Aerosmith, Gavin Rossdale, Mötley Crüe, Buckcherry) on their follow up to the album Revolución, released last year following the bands trip to Cuba, where the classic rock group were part of a cultural exchange as guests of the Cuban Ministry of Culture, Cuban Institute of Music and the Cuban Rock Agency. The still untitled album will be released globally on SPV Records later this year. Aldrich joins bassist Marco Mendoza (Thin Lizzy, Whitesnake), guitarist David Lowy (MINK, Red Phoenix), John Corabi (Mötley Crüe, The Scream) on vocals and Brian Tichy (Ozzy Osbourne, Billy Idol) on drums. "I'm very, very happy to join my friends Marco, Brian, John and David in the next chapter of The Dead Daisies," proclaims Aldrich. "I love the band and I'm looking forward to getting busy on the new record. This band is bringing back a raw, back to the bones sound that a lot of groups go for but The Dead Daisies are looking to nail. At this point in time, we are looking to have a kick ass Rock 'n’ Roll album in the can by spring 2016." Fortus couldn't be happier, saying: "When we started speaking about finding someone to replace me, the first suggestion I had was Doug Aldrich. It doesn't get any better than Doug in my book. I am so happy that he is able and willing to step in and take over. I think that it will elevate the band to the next level. Thanks to everyone that has supported the Daisies over the last couple of years. Stay tuned to see what they come up with next. I'm sure you won't be disappointed!" David Lowy, one of the original founders of The Dead Daisies said: "We're really going to miss Richard and Dizzy. It's been a privilege and a pleasure to write, record and perform with such talented world-class musicians and all-around great guys. I've personally learnt so much from both of them. We're very excited to announce Doug Aldrich will be joining The Dead Daisies in the lead guitar role. Doug was Richard's first pick to replace him. He's a highly accomplished musician, performer and songwriter and we're really looking forward to Doug joining us as the Dead Daisies adventure rolls on." Marco Mendoza couldn't be more excited as well of course. "Doug and I shared the stage for many years with Whitesnake and have been involved in many recording sessions and projects. He is a powerful guitar player and performer, can't wait to bring him in on our next efforts in the studio and on the road. VIVA LA ROCK!" Since exploding onto the scene in 2013, The Dead Daisies have taken the Classic Rock world by storm, releasing two albums to date & touring with the biggest names in rock including: ZZ Top, Aerosmith, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Bad Company, Judas Priest, KISS and Def Leppard. 2015 was a banner year that saw the band release their 2nd album, make a historic visit to Cuba, join the line-up for some of the biggest European Rock Festivals including Download and Graspop, tour around the globe with Whitesnake and KISS as well as play a sold out triumphant headline show in Paris. The band then returned to the UK for the first time in two years to play a series of Sold Out club shows, including the special guest slot at Planet Rock Stock in Wales. With the year having just started, The Dead Daisies are well underway to continue to rewrite the book on Classic Rock. With a killer new album in the works, massive touring being booked and fueled by their ever-growing fan base, the band is showing no signs of letting up. Rock ‘n’ Roll is alive and well!!! www.TheDeadDaisies.com Facebook Twitter YouTube Instagram # # # For Press Inquiries, Please Contact: Jeff Kilgour | The Syndicate | 917-678-4420 | [email protected] .

  • Nueva Mordida De La Serpiente Blanca
    Image not found or type unknown www.juventudrebelde.cu Image not found or type unknown El CD Forevermore, de Whitesnake, nos pone ante una banda aguerrida.Autor: Internet Publicado: 21/09/2017 | 05:13 pm Nueva mordida de la serpiente blanca Publicado: Miércoles 21 septiembre 2011 | 09:37:42 pm. Publicado por: Joaquín Borges-Triana Después de tres años de la salida al mercado del disco titulado Good to be bad, el vocalista David Coverdale y su tropa de Whitesnake vuelven a la carga en el presente 2011. El pasado 25 de marzo fue puesto en circulación a nivel mundial el fonograma denominado Forevermore, decimoprimero en la carrera de esta vieja agrupación británica que, pese al tiempo transcurrido desde su aparición y a los muchos cambios de alineación en su nómina, persiste en reinventarse una y otra vez. Desde que uno empieza a escuchar los 14 temas recogidos en el CD, se da cuenta de que este es un material con profundo sabor retro, pletórico en reminiscencias de álbumes grabados por el ensemble entre fines de los 70 y la década de los 80. En tal sentido, cabe afirmar que estamos ante un puñado de composiciones e interpretaciones signadas por un sonido gordo y cortante, con una base rítmica bien empastada. Asimismo, es evidente que Coverdale y sus compañeros de grupo se propusieron al enfrentarse a la producción de este nuevo fonograma, hacer un retorno a lo que pudiera definirse como una propuesta del más clásico rock y blues metalero. Con una actual nómina en la que acompañan al vocalista David Coverdale los guitarristas Doug Aldrich y Reb Beach, así como el baterista Brian Tichy, Michael Devin en el bajo y el teclista Brian Ruedy, Forevermore se inicia con Steal your heart away, corte cuya introducción me lleva a evocar los tiempos ya lejanos de Love Hunter, uno de los trabajos discográficos de la banda que más he disfrutado personalmente, junto al afamado 1987.

  • Makes It Easy to Find Manuals Online!
    Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Photo © Jay Banbury From Jim Marshall I am really pleased that you have chosen this 1959RR Randy Rhoads Signature Series Super Lead 100W head. It is only the fourth signature amplifier that we have produced and I feel it is a great addition to this select range. I first met Randy when he came to the factory in January 1980. He had not long ago joined Ozzy Osbourne and they were working on their first album. He came here knowing exactly what he was looking for, he just needed to find the amplifier that was going to be capable of delivering the power, the tone, and the reliability that he wanted, but was also in keeping with the image that he was to be recognised by. Randy almost found everything he was searching for in a standard 1959 head, but the tone was not quite right. He spent some time with my Service Manager, explaining the slight difference he was looking for, and after a few trials we were able to fit a modification which made the subtle change to the standard tone of the 1959. Randy left the factory to proudly stand in front of his white Marshall stack for all of his hugely successful, but sadly too brief career with Ozzy Osbourne. In this time the legendary guitarist could be seen by thousands of fans, performing in front of his Marshall stack – a sight to behold and a triumphant assault on the ears. Our design team have spent many hours investigating the original Randy Rhoads amplifier, speaking to the Randy Rhoads family, talking to people who knew Randy and heard him play, and talking to the Service Manager who was at the factory when Randy came in and made the modification to the amplifier.

  • “Whiskey in the Jar”: History and Transformation of a Classic Irish Song Masters Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment Of
    “Whiskey in the Jar”: History and Transformation of a Classic Irish Song Masters Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Dana DeVlieger, B.A., M.A. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2016 Thesis Committee: Graeme M. Boone, Advisor Johanna Devaney Anna Gawboy Copyright by Dana Lauren DeVlieger 2016 Abstract “Whiskey in the Jar” is a traditional Irish song that is performed by musicians from many different musical genres. However, because there are influential recordings of the song performed in different styles, from folk to punk to metal, one begins to wonder what the role of the song’s Irish heritage is and whether or not it retains a sense of Irish identity in different iterations. The current project examines a corpus of 398 recordings of “Whiskey in the Jar” by artists from all over the world. By analyzing acoustic markers of Irishness, for example an Irish accent, as well as markers of other musical traditions, this study aims explores the different ways that the song has been performed and discusses the possible presence of an “Irish feel” on recordings that do not sound overtly Irish. ii Dedication Dedicated to my grandfather, Edward Blake, for instilling in our family a love of Irish music and a pride in our heritage iii Acknowledgments I would like to thank my advisor, Graeme Boone, for showing great and enthusiasm for this project and for offering advice and support throughout the process. I would also like to thank Johanna Devaney and Anna Gawboy for their valuable insight and ideas for future directions and ways to improve.
