Fantastic! Thanks for posting- been looking forward to this, and I've got some work to get on with too, so timing is perfect to give it a listen!

A real shame it doesn't seem to be getting a physical release outside of Australia though- hopefully that may change, and a record label might pick it up?

Who is playing on this album?

Are Richard & Frank on the whole thing?

This sounds pretty cool :peace:

But I don't understand the title of the album. In June he will be back on stage performing 'It's So Easy' :smoking:

So, which is it?

What does this mean? Seems like a great addition to the solo albums to me.

Would love to know who?s playing what. Is Frank the drummer through out? If so some excellent work. Would love to hear him on a new GN?R album. The drum sound on Chinese is not my cup of tea but this sounds great.

Jarmo you know who?s playing what?

Fragile Water in my opinion still sticks out above the rest of the songs. But, I like the version he released like 15 years ago on MySpace known as "The Air" It's Fragile Water, but the beginning was a lot better IMO. Glad that song and that album has found the light of day.

Just bought it from itunes.

Dizzys got a pretty cool voice.

I dig the horns on Rock N Roll Aint Easy. Mother Theresa also stuck out after the first listen.

I also would love to know who plays on this. I read in a interview that the drummer for Fragile Water is Adrian Young from No Doubt.

The guitar solo for This Dont Look Like Vegas, Dirty Bomb, I Celebrate, Understanding, Crestfallen sounds signature 4tus to my ears.


If all this info is on the cd booklet, id appreciate if someone would share the info here.

Ricky Warwick plays on ?This Don?t like Vegas?

I bloody Love Mother Theresa.

This was made available regarding the track 'This Don't Look Like Vegas', which provides some information. Is quite likely that these people play throughout the album I suppose.

Written by Dizzy Reed, Ricky Warwick (Thin Lizzy, The Almighty, Black Star Riders) and Del James, This Don?t Look Like Vegas, features Warwick and Mayuko Okai on guitar, with fellow Gunner, Richard Fortus (Guns N? Roses, Psychedelic Furs, Thin Lizzy), bringing the guitar solo.  Mike Dupke?s (W.A.S.P.) on drums, Mike Duda (W.A.S.P.) on bass, Reed on lead vocals, piano, shaker and tambourine, with backing vocals from Nadja Reed, Chela Johnson and Del James."

Dust N Bones is a gem.
Rock N Roll Aint Easy was also cool.


Gonna go a bit offtopic and point out  that Duffs new Walking Papers record is pretty killer aswell. And Bumblefoots prog band Sons Of Apollo is also a great and epic listen.
