My wife insists no one reads anything I write. I am glad to find that is not true. Slash's all-star romp was a snooze. Perhaps I was too hard on Beth Hart. I watched her performance of "I'd Rather Go Blind" with Jeff Beck at the Hollywood Bowl and thought it was the greatest thing I had heard from her. I am going to read PopMatters. Thank you for your kind note.
It may indeed be a lot of fun for casual blues-rock fans, but most of it bored me to tears. I panned it pretty hard in PopMatters, although there are some bright moments. I do like Iggy’s treatment of “Awful Dream”, Brian Johnson’s take on “Killing Floor”, and yes, even Beth Hart. I thought she put far more effort into her performance than poor Demi Lovato did with hers.
But hey, different takes is what keeps the world turning - love it!

Well, be sure to tell your wife that you've got a reader!
