Hollywood Vampires

Anyone familiar with this? I just downloaded it from HD Tracks, but probably won't get to it until Friday.

    Last I heard they were Alice Coopers drinking buddies. Will have to investigate now.

    At least one of those guys was in his original band, Dennis Dunaway. Maybe Neal Smith too.

    I will find out tonight if I like the album. The song list seems great. How well they cover the songs is the key. Almost time for a rockin Friday night.

    Well, I am loving this CD. It is all cover songs, but songs that I liked. I added the entire CD to my rock playlist. Only Marilyn Manson, Pale Emperor, and Iron Maiden, Book of Souls, have made that cut.

    Sweet, I'll put this disk on my list. How do you like Book of Souls? I plan on picking it up this weekend.

    Well, I added the entire CD to my rock playlist, so that should give a clue as to my opinion. :)

    That is my only experience with Iron Maiden, so I don't know how it fits in with their previous work.

    I knew you liked it by adding the entire CD to your list. I was wondering on the recording quality and comparison to their other albums which you just answered. Most of Maiden's earlier recordings were done pretty good for the time era and genre that they were produced in. I can't say that for all 80's/90's metal recordings. I've been a Maiden fan since the release of their first album.
