Wheras I got 70's nostalgia, esp Scorpions with Roth. This was a much later cover.

Still loving you is one of the greatest love songs ever composed and performed.

This holds up.

So recommended the new Snoop the other day. Been going though songs randomly. Didn't realize he did a track with Sting repurposing Message In a Bottle. Um; HARD pass on this one. Love Snoop; Love Sting. NOT a good combo. He also did a reimagining of Last Dance with Mary Jane and that is also a HARD pass. Oof. I hate the original in this instance so it's even worse.

Luckily there are some other gems if you dig OG Snoop. Hard Knocks, Thank You, Pressure, Sticcy Situation

Hmmm...??? I see Body Count did a version of Comfortably Numb.

Not good imo. Appreciate the effort but I'll stick to their material.

Is this solo considered shredding?

Just the right mix of feeling and shredding!

Man, the DT vibes are thick with this one.

How have I never heard of these guys before?

Sounded very fresh to me, with some prog elements, and killer production. I'll have to check them out. I'm due for something new in that vein.

Me too! Apparently these guys have been at it for over 30 years, about as long as DT.

I did give a listen to a few songs off their latest...., Idk.... Maybe I'm not in the best frame of mind atm, but just as I was getting into the music, it would just take this turn into left field. Like, wtf just happened? And sure, DT does this all the time (and in some songs I also feel like, WTF was THAT?) So, Idk.

I'll try some of their older stuff.

Oh and yeah, dat guitar player is fucking SICK! Seems like it's par for the course these days though. Know what I mean?

I hear ya, Tom. I discovered them last week and then found out they were from the same Generation
as the DT fellas. Maybe they got stuck in Europe until the Youtubez came along.

There is definitely more singing than in DT. Singer has the same register as James. They could probably
stand in for one another. :lol

And yes, the guitarist is sick as F! He does that Petrucci/Steve Morse thing where he often switches to the
Neck pickup for some shreddy higher up the neck passages.

I dig them.
