S&G's "bridge over troubled waters" also returns to the UK charts this week at #21
"thriller" goes back in the UK album charts at #65

I guess I will have to stream Gray Chapter from Slipknot! Bob Seger sure slipknotted...ha ha ! His new album Ride Out is quite good, he is here soon. His album is the same Seger formula, very good uptempo rock with a couple of ballads! ! The only knock from critics is that he does some covers and didn't write anything on Ride Out...still a very good album imho!
I am not going to his concert here($160 a ticket), although my Alberta brother said his concert was unforgettable!
The ultimate connection is between a performer and its' audience!

It is good to see Billy Idol back, although I have not heard the album. The same applies to Neil Diamond, even though the title 'Melody Road' is a bit off-putting.

Which means what? That it's really cubic zirconium instead of Diamonds? He''s always been known for a goodly amount of album lame-o's/clinkers--when you choose covers, at least you know the songs are solid even if the coverage is weak.

You might be thinking of Bob Segerâs Ride Out, CRAZY-HORSE, which is covers and is quite underwhelming, IMHO. Neil Diamondâs album, on the other hand, is all new material, and bravo to him say I! Heâs sounding great and he can still write a good song. I like this very much -
