March 16, 2007TheRighttoRock.com has has issued its latest podcast (episode #14),featuring former DEEP PURPLE/RAINBOW singer Joe Lynn Turner. During the 48-minute interview, Joe discusses his extraordinary career and talks about his upcoming solo CD, "Second Hand Life". Download the podcast at TheRighttoRock.com.
Frontiers Records will release "Second Hand Life" in Europe on April 20. The CD is Turner's tenth solo release. This time Joe wanted to go straight back to his melodic rock roots. Therefore, he worked on the songwriting with such luminaries as Jim Peterik (ex-SURVIVOR),Bob Held, Karl Cochran, Martin Briley. He also managed to include a track that he co-wrote with Ritchie Blackmore, Jim Peterik and Roger Glover entitled "Stroke of Midnight". The players on the new disc include longtime collaborators Karl Cochran (ACE FREHLEY) on guitar and bass, Bob Held on bass, Gary Corbett on keyboards and former DAMN YANKEES — now with LYNYRD SKYNYRD — drummer Michael Cartellone.
Says Joe: "I would describe the new album as a hybrid between 'The Usual Suspects' and 'Sunstorm', my recent studio project which received more positive reviews than any of my solo CDs since 'Rescue You'. I felt that the fans wanted to hear more music in this melodic rock vein. So... I think we delivered on this forthcoming album."
