If that "studio bum" you refer to is Mike Slamer, I believe that is the story as it is. 

But I believe Joey Allen played the solos on 'Cherry Pie' and 'Dog Eat Dog' which are arguably far, far better than the solos on the debut. As amazing as Mike Slamer is... 

Slamer did do most of the session work for DRFSR but Joey Allen also brought in his former guitar teacher to play on it as well and I believe he ripped a few solos that were used on it. Like Geoff, I prefer Allen's own work on the follow up albums.

Torien still sounds great live, at least he did at the HOB show in Las Vegas in fall of 2018. I'm looking forward to hearing what the band come up with together.

For non Honeymoon fans (and to them I say; how dare you! Lol); I doubt this is gonna sway you so I wouldn't bother listening at all.

But for new listeners and HS fans alike; do check it out. Not getting the NSYNC vibe HH is, but they're his ears and he is certainly entitled to digest this tune the way he hears it.

Love it. Add it to a full length and get on the road. Crazy good live act btw.

What Kind of Love is This? Orphan or Streetheart cover? Anyone know?

 I believe other than this song, the rest is covers of Canadian acts from the 70s, 80s. I recognize song titles from Prism, Red Rider, Orphan, Headpins, Harlequin, and Rush.

I really like this song and have always liked Kerns' vocals dating back to Age of Electric. I was really hoping Slash was gonna go with him as lead vocalist instead of Kennedy in his solo project. No doubting Kennedy's talent, just prefer Kerns.

No need to close your eyes. With the blond hair and goatee, Poole kinda resembles Chad?

I fucking loved their debut! People love to say Want Some? was a perfect example of why the genre died/was killed off. I disagree completely.

I think they were literally the last band who got it exactly right. High energy, fun as hell, great sound, great look etc. No, they didn't reinvent the  genre but damn did they replicate it to perfection and put forth some kick ass sunset strip style bombast!

Like Geoff, I hear a little Buckcherry in the first single and maybe even latter day Warrior Soul. I like it but it is so different from Want.

I love this second single. Once again, not how we woulda expected a Want Some? follow up to sound but super catchy to these ears.

Download the 714 power ballad World Breaks Down if you want to hear Todd Poole a little closer to the Want Some? album. Great song.

I loved the last one. Are the vocals any worse on this one?

They still sound great live so I have my fingers crossed this will sound decent enough.

My favorite JSS project by a mile. Not sure why Soto is so dead set against doing something with the self titled lineup. Surely Frontiers has suggested it by now.

I actually like the two songs and will likely pick the album up based on what I hear here.  I hate to riff on anyone's creativity but I have to agree with Geoff; that video is just plain bad!

Great song. A lot of people are bitching about it not being the next "insert favorite Journey/Steve Perry solo track here". That's their problem. I'm just happy to hear him on a new album...period!

Love it. Just need to find a retailer with it reasonably priced. Amazon Canada wants $49.98.

Jealous.

I like it. Reminds me of a 70s rock outfit I can't recall the name of. Would be very satisfied if the rest of this release was at least as good as this single.

How'd you like Midnight Express live? Nuno is a god!! I saw their Porno 25th anniversary tour at a club in Minneapolis and they were over the top amazing!!

Mr Big is on my bucket list. I'll settle for the Eric Martin Band though. Love his voice and honestly feel he is what separates that band from others.

NIce happy sound. Gonna see if I can sample the rest of the album at Itunes. Like Desirae the best of these 3.

Why not? Do they have a live release I'm unaware of? If so, then I'm with Alpha. But if it's their first, go for it. However, if you say two "new" tracks at least make it two new tracks.

Yea. Get this dude in a real band. Don't think the vocals are that bad (maybe a little thin on the power scale) and I actually think they are the best thing about this tune. No doubt he can shred but this song is way too busy and not catchy at all.

She used to live across the street from me and was a play mate of my older brother's. Moved away long before becoming Lee Aaron but kinda cool anyway.

Where transactions involving big money rarities are concerned, each party should be covering their asses at both ends insuring the contents for what they are worth should they be lost and safely shipping with tracking that proves they have been delivered to the proper party. That should have been worked out before finalizing the deal.

This 5 for 3 deal is obviously worth a significant amount of money for both players involved so I can see how panic might cloud someone's judgement if they felt they were in jeopardy of losing out one way or another. Do I want someone smearing me every chance they get? Hell no. But that doesn't give anyone the green light to cut off all correspondence with the dude.

My two cents: Cut the guy some slack. He's worried about being screwed out of major coin here. You got the discs he promised you. Take every step you have to, to make sure your part of the deal is lived up to.

Thanks Howdy.

Thanks Glen.

Does anyone have a list of what bonus tracks Steel Panther has issued during their career? Greatly appreciated.

Really like this one. Nothing groundbreaking but highly enjoyable for this genre. If anyone has a legit cd of this, (not the boot floating around) I'll take it off their hands. Lemme know.

Sounds awesome. Have fun!
