Topic: Any Melodic Rock Fans Here?
A great band to check out would be Gotthard from Sweden. A little heavier music, but great nonetheless. They have a new cd that came out this year called Domino Effect.
Another greatcd I got this year was the debut from Marco Mendoza (Whitesnake, Thin Lizzy, Dolores O'Riordan's band)
Joe Lynn Turner (Rainbow, Deep Purple) also put out a great cd this year called Second Hand Life.
A great show to check out for 80's band lovers would be Scrap Metal. They are comprised of the Gunnar and Matthew Nelson (Nelson), Mark Slaughter (Slaughter), Kelly Keagy (Night Ranger), Eric Martin (Mr Big). They have guest vocalists sometimes too. Just saw them at Mohegan Sun with Joe Lynn Turner doing a couple of his songs. (Rainbow, Deep Purple). As they say at the beginning ofr their show "these are songs any 40-something will know the words to".
