yeah, they can't replace him, but by no means do they not kick ***.

Zakk Wylde amuses me too, pretty funny when he's on VH1 for all the metal shows they do...now if only they'd actually start playing more of those old videos in rotation...they do have a Classic Rock channel though, but it's a premium

I loved Zakk's first solo album "Pride&Glory" , the tracks "Horse Called War" and "Losin' Your Mind" kicked a**!!! I'm not into his newer stuff. I guess I'm getting old.

Loved Badland's with Jake E. Lee and the late Ray Gillen, pure blues inspired hard rock/metal with very tight muscianship. Jake hasn't produced or played on an album since then.

Jake never played with Dio, was rumoured to be in the running for the Guns 'n Roses guitarist slot when Slash left, but pulled himself out. Its rumoured he did record some tracks with ex-WWIII vocalist Mandy Lion.

Yeah, sorry...didn't have MTV growing up so I just remember what most of the names were by hearing them announced on the radio. Since it's been...oh say, 15-20 years since I've listened to most of these bands...I think I got pretty close.

And Greg, you just keep pushing the issue. Yeah, so what? I dug Duran. Hell I listened to Wham! and Hall & Oates too...are you trying to imply something buddy?

Prince may wear eye shadow and leather and high heels....his hair may be better than most supermodels but he is one of the biggest sexual icons to most women in your age range. (Notice I didn't say my age range.) Femininity and sensitivity was cool back then. So did I listen to Duran Duran? Yes. Does the Karate Kid soundtrack bring up tears to my eyes? Yes. Am I man enough to admit. No.

~tonight the role of Jayson Reliford has been played by...some other guy.

Actually found snippets of Jake E. Lee and Mandy Lion's tracks here under the Wicked Alliance navigation:

Off the topic, I did see Prince this past summer on his tour, it was amazing, he's assembled a group of fine musicians to play in his band. His concert was more than worth the $$$

Stumbled across the Tesla version, scored 10/10 with an average response speed of 4.5 seconds. I'm good.
