do these lyrics sound familiar gary or anyone who's heard it? if so its listed on the site i found these lyrics as a Tim Curry song

Sloe Gin, sloe Gin
Tryin´ to wash away the pain inside
Well I´m sick and I´m all done in
and I´m standing in the rain
and I feel like I´m gonna cry

I´m so @#$%^^&# lonely
and I ain´t even high
I´m so @#$%^^&# lonely
and I feel like I´m gonna die

Mayday, mayday I´ve been shot down
over the stormy sea
Well I swear that I´m drifteing away
Just can´t get a grip on me
Well..I can´t even try

I´m so @#$%^^&# lonely
and I ain´t even high
I hate to go home alone,
But what else is new ?
I´m so @#$%^^&# lonely

I hate to go home alone,
But what else is new ?
I´m so @#$%^^&# lonely
I´m so @#$%^^&# lonely

You stand and bleeding people pass you by
Don´t matter if you live
Don´t matter if you die

Sloe Gin, sloe Gin
Tryin´ to wash away the pain inside
Well I´m sick and I´m all done in
and I´m standing in the rain
and I fell like I´m gonna cry

I´m so @#$%^^&# lonely
and I ain´t even high
I´m so @#$%^^&# lonely...

I dont remember the lyrics from the show ,but joe said it was a tim curry song

Re: New cd............ Sloe Gin?????

Yes it is the Tim Curry Song, actually its a Bob Ezerin and Michael Kamen song.  We did the PG 13 version not the R version.  Its a beautiful track that Kevin found and he produced so great.  It has strings and is just beautiful. And yes the name of the album is Sloe Gin..  by the way thanks Jane for the Jeff Beck Shirt..

The cover art looks awesome.

Thanks for doing the PG 13 version, I don't think Nico could have handle the R version. LOL lol

TIm Curry as in Rocky Horror Picture Show and Home Alone II??  Never heard it but I'm sure whatever Joe does with it will be stunning.  Looking forward to seeing Joe (and Walter Trout) in a few weeks in Hagerstown, MD....y'all should come, us Marylanders'll show you how to parTAY!

Keep on rockin' the blues..

That's an awesome title for the new record- good choice Joe!  Can't wait to hear it!  Awesome looking cover too- if that is the cover...

Re: New cd............ Sloe Gin?????

Great song - Joe's vocals fit very well and it has some room to really stretch out on the guitar. Band was very (extremely) tight and brought this song roaring to life. No telling what it will be like in a couple of weeks.

Hey, if you look at Annelies first post on this thread and click on the website, it appears the release date was moved up. Yesterday it was 8/20/07 and now it's 7/27/07. Good news if that's correct!

Maybe that is the European release date, since You and Me was earlier in Europe vs. the US...

Sloe Gin

This is the Asking around for you of the new album , it's a atmospheric beautiful haunting slow song & melody with a Totally Awesome Solo to finish , 12 minutes long so Joe says ....... cannot wait for that sound
Kevin Shirley done a great job of finding this and letting Joe & the Boys put their own silky touch to mmmmmm
