Yesterday I bought the special edition of Classic Rock with a tribute to Deep Purple´s Machine Head. I think that all artists involved are great, especially with Black Label Society "Pictures of home" because I do not like at all this band. Also I've loved Kings of Chaos (Elliot, Steve Stevens, Duff McKagan and M Sorum) playing "Never before" and Metallica have surprised me in "When a blind man cries". The only negative point I put on The Flaming Lips with a grotesque version of "Smoke on the water". I assume they wanted to do something original and different ... but is that the version is unhealthy and disastrous.http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919139,919139#msg-919139Wed, 22 May 2013 05:16:33 +1000 Phorum 5.2.16 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919139,919301#msg-919301 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919139,919301#msg-919301 machinehead NoticeboardMon, 12 Nov 2012 22:07:08 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919139,919300#msg-919300 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919139,919300#msg-919300Sounds like a fifth-rate outtake from an old BUGGLES record !!!
Had to turn this crap off midway in the song...
Why include that on a (otherwise ok Tribute album ?) To be open-minded?
I had a three track promo with the Iron Maiden Coverversion and two others... but WTF ?!?

( I think I heard the track sung by Glenn Hughes on KNAC and that was pretty good!)]]> Shade NoticeboardMon, 12 Nov 2012 21:57:08 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919139,919163#msg-919163 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919139,919163#msg-919163-------------------------------------------------------
