In 2010, he returns (at 49 &#8211; not quite yet 50) with <em>&#8220;Tattoos &amp; Tequila&#8221;,<\/em> twelve scorching hot rockers that were recorded in the winter of 2009 with SLAUGHTER bassist\/guitarist combo Dana Strum and Jeff Blando, along with the smoldering drum performance of Zoltan Chaney. This is Neil\u2019s first solo studio recording &#8211; believe it or not &#8211; <em>in fifteen years<\/em>. 1995\u2019s <em>Carved In Stone<\/em> was killer in my book and I am here to say that I believe this new album will definitely exceed every listeners expectations. It rocks.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nNeil shows off his still ever potent vocal talents by perfectly covering classics from AEROSMITH (&#8220;Nobody&#8217;s Fault&#8221;), SEX PISTOLS (&#8220;No Feelings&#8221;), CHEAP TRICK (&#8220;He&#8217;s a Whore&#8221;) and SCORPIONS (&#8220;Another Piece of Meat&#8221;) &#8211; throwing in some hot original tracks, such as the totally kicking &#8220;Tattoos and Tequila&#8221; and &#8220;Another Bad Day&#8221;, both which were produced by Marti Frederiksen (AEROSMITH, OZZY OSBOURNE, DEF LEPPARD). It&#8217;s said that Neil wanted to pay homage on this album to all the rock giants that have influenced him throughout his musical career. Let me just say that I think he hit a home run out of the park. The cover songs were produced by Neil and Jack Blades (DAMN YANKEES, NIGHT RANGER) and truly do need to be heard to be believed. I for one can&#8217;t wait to hear more future solo releases from the longtime CR\u00dcE legend.<br \/>\nIf you can&#8217;t get into <em>Tattoos &amp; Tequila<\/em>&#8230; you need your pulse checked.<br \/>\n<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i66.photobucket.com\/albums\/h259\/rsid999\/Storm-08-june.gif\" alt=\"tmd\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i189.photobucket.com\/albums\/z89\/themetalden2007\/BIGROCKETEND1113337777-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"tmd\" \/><br \/>\n<br \/>\n<big><br \/>\n<strong>ROCKET REVIEW:<\/strong><\/big><big><strong>[starreview tpl=16]<br \/>\nVINCE NEIL &#8211; &#8220;Tattoos &amp; Tequila&#8221; (CD)<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>(Frontiers Records\/2010)<\/em><small><br \/>\n<br \/>\n1.
