Podcast appearances and mentions of Dana Strum

This week we take a look at the studio catalog of 90's band Slaughter. Formed in 1988 by ex Vinnie Vincent Invasion members Mark Slaughter and Dana Strum, the duo recruited guitarist Tim Kelly and drummer Blas Elias before getting to work on their 1990 debut album 'Stick it to Ya.' Riding high on the success of singles such as 'Up All Night' and 'Fly to the Angels,' the album sold well and secured the band a slot on KISS' 'Hot in the Shade' tour. 1992's followup album 'The Wild Life' would show solid sales but telltale signs of a tide shift in the music business. Without major label backing, Slaughter would go on to release 3 albums for independent label CMC Records; 1995's 'Fear No Evil,' 1997's 'Revoluion,' and 1999's 'Back to Reality.' Mark Slaughter would go on to record two solo albums; 2015's 'Reflections in a Rear View Mirror' and 2017's 'Halfway There' but Slaughter remains out of the studio. Will that change? Only time will tell. This week we pick our "best" and "worst" song from each Slaughter studio album. Joining us this time is Marc Alden Taylor of the Free Form Rock podcast.

Most people are familiar with the actor, Sean Penn.  His older brother, Michael Penn went in a more musical direction, becoming a singer, songwriter, and producer.  His debut album, March, would achieve both critical and commercial success, peaking on the US album charts at number 31.  This would be his most successful album commercially, though his follow-up albums were received positively by the  critics.Manhattan native Michael Penn was the first son of actor/director Leo Penn and actress Eileen Ryan.  He began his musical journey in junior high school, and joined the Los Angeles band Doll Congress before embarking on a solo career.  He appeared as a musical guest on Saturday Night Live in 1987 when his younger brother Sean was the host.  He would garner attention, however in 1989 with his debut album, March.  It would earn him the 1990 MTV Video Music Award for Best New Artist, and its first single "No Myth" would rise to number 13 on the Billboard Hot 100.  Michael Penn would go on to marry singer-songwriter Aimee Mann (who fronted the new wave group 'Til Tuesday) in 1997.  The couple are still together and living in Los Angeles.  Rob brings us this singer-songwriter because he has created interesting songs with clever lyrics, and his underrated status may indicate that our listeners haven't heard his music beyond his first single.  We hope you enjoy this artist and perhaps discover some music from the late 80's that you haven't heard before - or haven't heard in a while. No MythThis is the first and most successful single from the album.  It made it to number 5 on the Mainstream Rock charts and number 13 on the Billboard Hot 100.  It is about a guy who is rejected by a girl even though he knows he could make her happy.  “We said goodbye before hello, my secrets she will never know, and if I dig a hole to China I'll catch the first junk to Soho.”Half HarvestThe second song on the album is an understated deeper cut that sounds like a break-up song, or a tune about faded romance. “So move out of your bed of roses, now. I'm putting in a bed of nails.”Brave New WorldThis is a jangle pop, rockabilly song with great harmonies and fast-paced lyrics.  It ends with a jazz jam and we feel it has a road trip feel in the lyrics as the singer drives into the brave new world.This & ThatThis single hit number 10 on the Modern Rock charts, and also has a quick lyric cadence.  “I'll do this and I'll do that, I'll be burning canyons for you.  I'll do this and I'll do that and I will wait forever if you'll be there.” ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Hymn to Red October (from the motion picture The Hunt for Red October)Sean Connery takes the lead in the first of the Tom Clancy books to hit the big screen.  The idea of a defecting Soviet sub was a compelling concept in the late 80's, well before the communist government fell apart. STAFF PICKS:Cuts You Up by Peter Murphy Bruce's staff pick went to number 55 on the Billboard Hot 100, but dominated the then-new Billboard Alternative Songs chart, spending seven weeks at number 1 on that chart.  Peter Murphy was the lead singer of the group Bauhaus, which gave us the song “Bela Lugosi's Dead.”  Murphy and guitarist Paul Statham wrote this song which is about how the path of self-knowledge and discovery will ruin your assumptions, keeping you from getting arrogant.I Go to Extremes by Billy JoelLynch reminds us that things tend to go awry when musician Billy Joel writes a song for his wife.  Indeed Joel's relationship with Christie Brinkley would come to an end in 1994 after it inspired this song that was a single from his album Stormfront. The idea of this song is a recognition that Joel can be compared to a roller coaster of emotion.  Up All Night by Slaughter Wayne brings us a hair band hit from the peak of “big hair.”  Las Vegas, based Slaughter is named after vocalist and guitarist Mark Slaughter who formed the band in 1988 with bassist Dana Strum.  The band is completed by guitarist Tim Kelly and drummer Blas Elias.  The song is pretty much the anthem of the hair bands - up all night, sleep all day. Baby, It's Tonight by Jude Cole Rob finishes the staff picks with singer-songwriter, manager, and producer Jude Cole.  He has a sound similar to John Waite, and started with the band Lifehouse.  Cole also started a record label called Iron Works with actor Kiefer Sutherland.  This song made it to number 16 on the Billboard Hot 100. COMEDY TRACK:As Kosher As They Wanna Be  by 2 Live Jews Oy Vey!  I hope we don't get cancelled for this comedy track which was on the charts at the time.

Red and Jerry talk to Dana Strum and Mark Slaughter about their show at Madison's Brat Fest. This is the full interview. It was edited for time on the radio shows.

Slaughter comes to Smugglers Run in Wyandotte, Michigan this coming Saturday, but first, Mark Slaughter talked to me. It's been a while since Mark's been on Talkin' Rock, so it was great to get him on to talk about everything they have going on.  He told me about the band, along with Dana Strum and Jeff "Blando" they're bringing drummer, Jordon Cannata. He's the young gun in he band as Mark explained. "What a great player! Young kid, he was born....on the day that our first record was put out." He talked about the many times Slaughter has played the Detroit area, including his first time through the Motor City with the Vinnie Vincent Invasion. "We did two nights with Alice Cooper, this is in 1986, where we opened up and played Hell Night and Halloween, opening for Alice Cooper." Those shows were at the legendary Cobo Hall.  He mentioned some possible new music coming down the pike. "It doesn't take us long to write the songs, it's just about getting us in the same room." We talked about drummer Blas Elias "Blas is and always will be a big part of the band." We talked about a possible upcoming bio-pic and what he's discovered that will be a part of that.  He talks about his life in Tennessee and why he's there. He told a crazy story about a trip to Lima, Peru earlier this year. That story is nuts! Oh, and bodyguards ripping seats out of rental cars...yeah, you read that right.  See you guys at the show this Saturday! -Meltdown https://www.slaughterusa.com/ https://wrif.com/podcasts/talkin-rock-with-meltdown/

Tyler & Dave speak with former Lucha Underground / WWE referee Marty Elias. His journey began in the 1980's, where Marty was on the world-famous Sunset Strip hanging out with the likes of Guns N Roses, Poison, Warrant, Great White and his all time favorite band Motley Crue! Marty eventually worked for Blitzkrieg a local 1985 LA band. Marty has also worked with Slaughter and Dana Strum since then. In the early 80's Marty was introduced to the world of professional wrestling. He has worked with the likes of Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat, Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker! Marty is known for being the official for what many consider to be the greatest match in WrestleMania history: The Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania 25. Later, Marty moved on to Hollywood and worked for Robert Rodriquez on the El Rey Network show Lucha Underground. After four seasons Lucha Underground wasn't renewed, thus leading him to GLOW on Netflix and other TV productions such as Good Girls, The Ultimate Surfer, Dolemite Is My Name, and The Voice.

Former KISS guitarist Vinnie Vincent burst onto the rock scene in 1983 when he was announced as Ace Frehley's replacement.  With lightning-fast fret work coupled with a gift for songwriting, he wrote and performed some of KISS's most memorable songs of the early 1980s.  Sadly, his tenure in KISS was short-lived -- he was kicked out of the band after just 2 years.  His solo career was similarly erratic.  After just two albums, The Vinnie Vincent Invasion imploded when vocalist Mark Slaughter and bassist Dana Strum left the band to create "Slaughter", the massively successful hair metal act of the late-80s.   Then, Vinnie Vincent vanished...for nearly 25 years!  Vincent's compelling story is shrouded in mystique and tragedy.  This episode was requested by listener Scott Carnegie!  We appreciate the recommendation!

(Por Tiempo Limitado) https://teespring.com/es/stores/biblioteca-del-metal-1 Slaughter es una banda de Hard rock estadounidense formada en Las Vegas , Nevada , Estados Unidos, por el vocalista principal y guitarrista rítmico Mark Slaughter y el bajista Dana Strum . La banda alcanzó el estrellato en 1990 con su primer álbum Stick It to Ya , que generó varios sencillos de éxito como " Up All Night ", "Spend My Life", "Mad About You" y "Fly to the Angels". ". El álbum alcanzó el estatus de doble platino en los Estados Unidos. La banda sigue siendo un acto constante en giras nacionales, principalmente en el Rock Never Stops Tour que presenta a varias bandas de la misma época. Slaughter se formó en Las Vegas, Nevada, a fines de 1988, a partir de las cenizas del vocalista principal Mark Slaughter y la banda anterior del bajista Dana Strum, Vinnie Vincent Invasion . La compañía discográfica de Vinnie Vincent Invasion, Chrysalis Records , le quitó el contrato de $ 4 millones a Vinnie Vincent por exceder su línea de crédito con el sello, y transfirió el contrato a los ex miembros Slaughter y Strum. En 1989, Slaughter y Strum completaron la formación reclutando al guitarrista principal Tim Kelly y al baterista Blas Elias . El álbum debut de Slaughter, Stick It to Ya, tuvo tres sencillos lanzados que llegaron al Billboard Hot 100 : el éxito "Fly to the Angels" (EE.UU. # 19), y los éxitos moderados "Up All Night" (EE.UU. # 27) y "Spend My Life "(Estados Unidos # 39). Durante este tiempo, se lanzó una canción de la banda sonora de la película Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey . Esa canción, titulada "Shout It Out", fue acompañada por un video musical, pero no logró llegar al Hot 100 de EE. UU. En 1992, la banda lanzó su segundo álbum, titulado The Wild Life . Alcanzó el número ocho en el Billboard Top 200 Album Chart y fue certificado oro, pero no produjo ningún Top 40 en el Hot 100 de EE. UU. El único sencillo que alcanzó el Hot 100 fue el primer sencillo "Real Love" (US # 69). La banda planeaba grabar su tercer álbum a principios de 1994. Sin embargo, en 1993 el guitarrista Tim Kelly fue arrestado por cargos de tráfico de drogas, mientras que el bajista Dana Strum tuvo un accidente de motocicleta que lesionó la mano que tocaba. El álbum retrasado se completó en febrero de 1994 y se lanzó el primer sencillo "Searchin '". Sin embargo, después de la absorción de Chrysalis Records en EMI Records, Slaughter se eliminó de EMI. Posteriormente, la banda firmó con CMC International , un nuevo sello en ese momento que firmó muchas bandas de hard rock y metal frente a la nueva popularidad del grunge . La etiqueta tuvo una distribución mayoritaria a través de BMG . En 1995, Slaughter lanzó el álbum Fear No Evil . El álbum no tuvo mucho éxito en América del Norte , Europa o gran parte de Asia, pero funcionó bien en Japón . El guitarrista Dave Marshall (ex- banda de Vince Neil ) tuvo que reemplazar a Kelly en ocasiones, debido a sus problemas legales. Los problemas legales de Kelly terminaron y la banda se comprometió con su próximo álbum. En 1997, se estrenó Revolución . El álbum presentaba un sonido más ecléctico y psicodélico, pero no logró causar impacto. El 5 de febrero de 1998, ocurrió una tragedia cuando el guitarrista Tim Kelly murió en un accidente automovilístico en el desierto de Arizona . Esto afectó profundamente al grupo, pero se comprometieron a continuar con la banda. Dave Marshall actuó brevemente como guitarrista de gira para Slaughter en Japón. En 1998, contrataron a Jeff Blando como reemplazo de Kelly y comenzaron a trabajar en su próximo álbum. Se lanzó un álbum en vivo titulado Eternal Live con algunas de las últimas actuaciones de la banda con Kelly. En 1999, lanzaron el álbum Back to Reality , con Blando como el nuevo guitarrista. Blando estuvo anteriormente en Left For Dead y Saigon Kick . Slaughter continúa presentando muchos paquetes turísticos de rock con otros actos que vieron prominencia durante la era del glamour de la década de 1980 y principios de la de 1990. Durante el verano de 1999, mientras estaba en el " Rock Never Stops Tour " (que incluía a Ted Nugent y Night Ranger ), Slaughter vio algunos de sus sencillos anteriores en álbumes recopilatorios. El álbum de VH-1 "Power Ballads" incluyó "Fly To The Angels"; "Up All Night" se incluyó en Rhino Records"Golpeadores duros". Slaughter también participó en la gira "Poison, Cinderella, Dokken and Slaughter" del verano de 2000. En 2001, Slaughter fue parte de la gira "Voices of Metal" con Vince Neil de Mötley Crüe , Ratt y Vixen . Mark Slaughter y el ex compañero de banda de Vinnie Vincent Invasion de Dana Strum, Bobby Rock, tocaron como baterista de gira para Slaughter, reemplazando a Blas Elias en algunos shows del Rock Never Stops Tour. En abril de 2004, Slaughter lanzó un DVD-A titulado Then and Now que presenta 12 canciones y 50 fotos de la banda a lo largo de los años. Slaughter también lanzó un DVD que presenta todos los videos musicales y metraje detrás de escena durante la temporada 2004. El 13 de julio de 2007, Slaughter actuó en el festival de glam metal Rocklahoma . Sin embargo, Strum y Blando no estuvieron presentes durante la actuación de la banda, aunque actuaron con Vince Neil la noche siguiente. A finales de enero de 2008, Slaughter realizó un espectáculo en Motley Cruise, un crucero de cuatro días por el Caribe con Vince Neil , Skid Row , Ratt , Endeverafter , Lynam . Slaughter continúa de gira y en 2017 están programados para aparecer en el crucero Monsters of Rock y en Rocklahoma junto con varios otros conciertos programados.

(Por Tiempo Limitado) https://teespring.com/es/stores/biblioteca-del-metal-1 Vinnie Vincent Invasion fue una banda de heavy metal creada por el exguitarrista de Kiss en los discos Creatures Of The Night y Lick it Up, Vinnie Vincent. Es una banda que apenas editó algunos demos, 2 discos y un EP, ha contado con grandes músicos como los vocalistas Robert Fleischman (Journey), Jeff Scott Soto (Yngwie Malmsteen's Rising Force, Panther, Journey) y Mark Slaughter Slaughter y el Baterista Bobby Rock (Nitro, Nelson). Musicalmente es una excelente banda, Vinnie Vincent no es un guitarrista que se centra en la velocidad, sino en la melodía y no le teme a experimentar con efectos. La banda se mantuvo solamente dos años, tiempo en el que participaron como vocalistas Robert Fleischman (Journey) y Mark Slaughter (Slaughter), al igual que otros músicos populares como el bajista Dana Strum y el baterista Bobby Rock. Mark, y los demás dejaron a Vinnie porque su actitud era diferente, para otros era porque Mark y los demás querían que la banda se llame Invasion y quitarle el nombre de Vinnie Vincent, pero seguramente éste dijo: Aquí el famoso soy yo y el grupo se llama como yo diga. En 1985 grabaron el disco Vinnie Vincent Invasion, y en 1988 el disco All Systems Go, que contiene la canción "Love Kills", que apareció en la película del mismo año A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master. En 1986, junto con el bajista Dana Strum dieron vida a este Invasion. Completan la formación Bobby Rock (nada que ver con el famoso productor) y un agudísimo cantante llamado Robert Fleishman. Lo mejor de este disco es Vinnie Vincent y lo peor también. El disco cuenta con unas composiciones de heavy metal americano ochentero fantásticas. La inicial Boyz are gonna rock, Shoot u full of love, Animal... las más lentas y geniales No substitute y Back on the streets (canción que luego versionaría John Norum en su genial debut en solitario Total Control). La cara B empieza con un buen tema hard (ya os digo que casi todos lo son) Do you wanna make love, sigue con la ya comentada Back On the Streets, I wanna be your victim es otro de los mejores temas del disco, muy macarra de los 80. Baby-O sería el típico tema pasteloso de bandas de la época sinó fuera porque Vinnie y compañía la convierten en una locura estridente. Invasion cierra el disco, otro buen tema heavy con final a la altura del proyecto, desquiciante y obsesivo. En 1988 entran al estudio y graban su siguiente trabajo titulado "All systems Go" con Mark Slaughter en los vocales chillantes. En lo musical este es un trabajo excelente con canciones muy elaboradas que en conjunto con la voz de Mark Slaughter le da un buen ritmo y profundidad a las canciones. Entre las favoritas del disco se encuentra "Love Kills"fue presentado en promoción para la banda sonora de Pesdilla en Elm Street IV. "That Time Of Year" es una buena canción que te hace adentrarte a la melodiosa y buen registro de Mark Slaughter. "Breakout" es una canción muy explosiva, con el riff y la voz de Mark hacen una buena combinación para mover la cabeza hasta desnucarte. El álbum tuvo cierto éxito, pero la confusión interna mató a la banda a finales de 1988 al final de su gira de un mes. Vincent grabó un tercer álbum de la invasión con Fleischman, pero nunca vio la luz del día, y él ha permanecido fuera de los reflectores y grabado esporádicamente desde entonces.

(Por Tiempo Limitado) https://teespring.com/es/stores/biblioteca-del-metal-1 Quiet Riot es una banda estadounidense de Heavy Metal que, entre 1983 y 1984, contribuyó al éxito del llamado glam metal en los años 1980. Son conocidos por su éxitos «Metal Health» y «Cum On Feel the Noize». La banda se fundó en 1973 por el guitarrista Randy Rhoads y el bajista Kelly Garni bajo el nombre original de Mach 1, antes de cambiar el nombre a Little Women y finalmente a Quiet Riot en 1975La formación original estaba formada por el vocalista Kevin DuBrow, Randy Rhoads, Kelly Garni y el baterista Drew Forsyth. Su formación actual no cuenta con ningún miembro original, y consiste en el vocalista Jizzy Pearl, el baterista Frankie Banali, el bajista Chuck Wright, y el guitarrista Alex Grossi. El nombre Quiet Riot viene de una frase en la novela de John Barth de los años 1960 Giles Goat-Boy. Están en el número 100 de los 100 Mejores Artistas de Hard Rock de VH1 lograron vender unas 16 millones de copias en Estados Unidos y a nivel mundial sus ventas superan los 60 millones de copias. Kevin DuBrow, el vocalista original y en mayor tiempo en la existencia de la banda, fue encontrado muerto en su casa en Las Vegas, Nevada el 25 de noviembre de 2007.La causa de la muerte se debió a una sobredosis de cocaína. Quiet Riot se separó temporalmente después de su muerte, pero fue recientemente revivida por Banali en 2010.Los cuatro miembros originales, grabaron su primer álbum Quiet Riot, o (QR I), que fue lanzado en Japón en 1978. Meses después, el bajista Kelly Garni dejó la banda. Después de reemplazarlo con Rudy Sarzo, el segundo álbum Quiet Riot II, o (QR II), fue grabado y lanzado en Japón en 1979. En noviembre de 1979, después de fallar el lanzamiento de un álbum en Estados Unidos, Randy Rhoads siguió el consejo de su amigo Dana Strum y se unió a la banda de Ozzy Osbourne. DuBrow y Forsyth trataron de mantener la banda unida después de la separación de Rhoads. De 1980 a 1982 el nombre de la banda fue cambiado a DuBrow.Después de la muerte de Rhoads en un accidente de avión el 19 de marzo de 1982, DuBrow quiso reformar Quiet Riot. Ninguno de los miembros originales estaba interesado, así que el hermano de Tony Cavazo, Carlos, se unió como guitarrista, Sarzo se unió de nuevo a la banda en el bajo, y un amigo de Rudy, el baterista Frankie Banali, completó el grupo. En septiembre de 1982, con un poco de ayuda del productor Spencer Proffer, firmaron con CBS Records en América, y el 11 de marzo de 1983, su primer álbum en América Metal Health fue lanzado. (Sus dos álbumes previos, QR I y QR II, no habían sido lanzados todavía en los Estados Unidos). El 27 de agosto de 1983 fue lanzado el segundo single de Quiet Riot «Cum on Feel the Noize», un cover del éxito de Slade en 1973. Estuvo dos semanas en el número 5 de Billboard en noviembre de 1983. Fue la primera canción de heavy metal en estar en el Top 5 de Billboard y también la primera canción de Slade grabada por el grupo. El éxito de «Cum on Feel the Noize» ayudó a Metal Health a alcanzar el top de Billboard en álbum Pop, siendo el primer álbum de heavy metal en alcanzar el puesto #1. Un álbum en el #1 y un single en el Top 5 era lo mejor para una banda de heavy metal en 1983. El álbum Metal Health también destronó del #1 al álbum Synchronicity de The Police. Metal Health abrió el camino a un nuevo y más fuerte estado comercial del heavy metal. Metal Health se quedó en el puesto 1 por solo una semana, hasta que el álbum Can't Slow Down de Lionel Richie alcanzó el número 1 por tres semanas. El siguiente álbum del grupo, Condition Critical, fue lanzado el 7 de julio de 1984, y fue una decepción crítica y comercialmente, vendiendo solo 3 millones de copias. El lanzamiento incluía de nuevo un cover de Slade, el single «Mama Weer All Crazee Now». Frustrado, DuBrow empieza a mandar cartas a bandas metaleras nuevas en Los Ángeles sabiendo que su éxito era en parte debido a su éxito "ennow that their success was in part owed to the past successes of Quiet Riot". Esto condujo a Sarzo a separarse del grupo en 1985. El puesto de bajista en Quiet Riot fue cubierto por Chuck Wright de Giuffria.Luego, la banda lanzó QRIII en 1986, que fue otra decepción comercial. Cansados de DuBrow, el resto de Quiet Riot lo despideron de su propia banda y lo reemplazaron con el vocalista Paul Shortino. Chuck Wright a su vez fue reemplazado por Sean McNabb. La banda lanzó su álbum Quiet Riot en 1988, que también fue otro fracaso. Este álbum de 1988 técnicamente tenía el mismo nombre que su primer álbum original con Randy Rhoads. La banda cayó después de un tour que terminó en Hawaii en 1989 y DuBrow peleó para tomar el control de la banda.DuBrow y Cavazo formaron Heat, pero eventualmente cambiaron el nombre a Quiet Riot de nuevo y lanzaron Terrified (1993) con Banali y Kenny Hillery (Bajo). Ese mismo año, DuBrow lanzó The Randy Rhoads Years con canciones de los abumes de Quiet Riot de Columbia Records y algunos materiales no lanzados previemente. Hillery se fue en 1995 y se suicidó el 5 de junio de 1996; Wright se reunió al grupo para tocar el Bajo. La banda lanzó Down to the Bone ese mismo año. El siguiente año, la banda lanzó un Greatest Hits, que no incluía ninguna de las canciones de los dos discos originales de Rhoads y nada de los dos álbumes de los 90's, pero si tenía unas cuantas canciones del álbum de 1998. Después de eso, Rudy Sarzo se unió de nuevo en 1997, y la banda salió de gira.La gira no fue lo que se esperaba, y la banda fue arrestada en varias ocasiones; un fan molesto demandó a DuBrow por lesiones sostenidas durante una presentación. El grupo siguió, y lanzó Alive and Well en 1999, que contenía nuevas canciones muchos éxitos nuevamente grabados. Ellos siguieron a este álbum con Guilty Pleasures en 2001.Quiet Riot oficialmente se separó en febrero de 2003, y Sarzo se unió a Dio en el siguiente año. Pero ellos reformaron el grupo en 2005. Esta nueva unión uncluye a DuBrow, Banali, Wright, y el guitarrista Alex Grossi. La banda fue presentada en el Rock Never Stops Tour en 2005 junto a Cinderella, Ratt y FireHouse. En 2004, DuBrow grabó su primer disco en solitario, In for the kill, una colección de covers. En 2006 Chuck Wright y Alex Grossi dejaron la banda, formando L.A. Guns / Brides of Destruction. El guitarrista Tracii Guns se unió a la banda en 2006 y la dejó dos semanas después, por diferencias musicales. El último disco de estudio de Quiet Riot, Rehab (álbum), fue lanzado en octubre de 2006. Las últimas presentaciones de la banda fueron en el festival glam Rocklahoma y en un concierto gratuito a mediados de septiembre para miembros de servicio de la base aérea Kessler AFB en Biloxi, Mississippi.El 25 de noviembre de 2007, Kevin Dubrow fue hallado muerto en su casa de Las Vegas. Su compañero de banda Frankie Banali expresó lo siguiente en su sitio web oficial: "No puedo encontrar las palabras para hablar de lo que pasó. Por favor respeten mi privacidad mientras me lamento por la muerte y honro la memoria de mi querido amigo, Kevin DuBrow".

I think Hell has officially frozen over! This episode is a long time coming and I hope it will inform people that have always wondered "What the hell happened to Vinnie Vincent?" The show begins with a quick recap of how I had the seedling of an idea of finding out what happened to Vinnie Vincent and turning it into a writing project. What began as a quick idea that would make an interesting magazine article snowballed when I received so much information from so many angles that I began to entertain thoughts of turning the story into a book.......then, I got realistic. A book at this point in time about a recluse guitarist who's 15 minutes of fame ended in the 1980's just wasn't practical; no matter how much I loved his music, songwriting, and intriguing story. I launched the Decibel Geek podcast when I remembered how much fun it was to interview some of the people that I grew up listening to and artists of today that I dig. I had already conducted some interviews for the Vinnie Vincent project at the time and figured I could use some of those and add some new ones for a big episode on Vinnie. Little did I know at the time that Vinnie Vincent was about to be a public figure again in a big way; not one of his own choosing. From seemingly out of nowhere, Vinnie Vincent appeared on TMZ due to being arrested for a domestic violence episode with his wife. Within 24 hours his mug shot was all over the place; the first photo seen of him in almost 7 years! The 2 years that I've spent researching this troubled virtuoso's history has been uplifting at times (when discovering his music post-KISS) and depressing at others. This episode of the Decibel Geek Podcast seeks to give a glimpse into what some of Vinnie's peers over the years have experienced working with KISS' former Ankh Warrior and provides me with a chance to speak as a voice of the fans who are trying to navigate this strange situation. Joining me in part 1 of this Vinnie Vincent Special are former WASP, Steeler, & SIN bassist Rik Fox who shares with me his shock at, what he claims, was his song being ripped off by the Vinnie Vincent Invasion shortly after letting Vinnie and band mate Dana Strum listen to his demo and the icy reception he received when trying to settle the dispute. Also joining me is Keli Raven, a veteran Los Angeles musician that was breaking into the scene back in 1991 and worked with Vinnie Vincent on the still-unreleased Guitars from Hell album. Raven also was involved with some of the music for writing sessions for KISS' Revenge album and was witness to Gene Simmons & Vinnie Vincent's creative process. Unfortunately, Keli states that Vinnie continuously lived up to a bad reputation that he had built by that time. This episode is just the tip of the iceberg and will leave you wanting to hear more (we hope!). Part 1 of the Vinnie Vincent Special is your ticket to a behind the scenes look at one of the most intriguing rock personalities of the 1980's. Get ready for an audio Invasion! - Chris Czynszak
