Re: The Winery Dogs
Eddie Trunk has been talking these guys up for awhile, featuring 3 friends of his. It took me awhile to check them out but they sound pretty promising.
Featuring Richie Kotzen on guitar/vocals, Billy Sheehan on bass, and Mike Portnoy on drums.
I've never really heard Richie sing, or play for that matter, but he sounds a little like Chris Cornell to me. I know that may be a bit of a stretch, but check it out.
Re: The Winery Dogs
I heard these guys on the radio, with some radio guy I listen to talking them up like their debut album was the best thing he'd heard since Appetite.
Umm... not close. But I will say it's quality rock. A good album, that never bores, and is a good listen from start to finish. Favorite tracks were I'm No Angel (might be the best rock single in years), Time Machine, and The Dying.
Kotzen blew me away. I never knew he could even sing. Very Cornell-ish. Lyrically the album is a bit more for the melodic rock crowd, but still quality. A few songs trail off into too much bass, and drum soloing to show off Portnoy, that don't fit the tone.
But the album is like a cross between Ju Ju Hounds meets Soundgarden meets Alice In Chains meets Cream meets Clapton solo meets 80's melodic rock. You like that, you'll like that.
