Hey all, does anyone have this album? If so, is it good and where can I find it?

Funny, but since the Hammerstein shows I havnt listened to Guns, but Mr Stradlin instead. Great to see the guy is out there and still alive!!

Cant stop listening to his work, great stuff.

Yeah it's damn good Cool

You can only order it on www.scootersteez.com 20USD and it will be delivered on your doorstep.

Scooter is an old Indiana friend of Izzy and is handling the sales.

Info:

http://www.heretodaygonetohell.com/releases/izzy/like-a-dog/index.html

Review:

Bomb - Great fast rocker with awesome lyrics and vocals, there's a breakdown in the middle of the song and at the end when you think it's finished it starts again. Probably my favourite on the album.

Hammerhead - Another classic rocker with a great groove.

Snafu - Not a song you'd expect by Izzy but it's very cool, the intro is a stereo sound of fast notes a la AC/DC's Thunderstruck. Then the song begins with aggressive sounding palm muting from Izzy like on Grunt.

Hell Song - Great song with a great groove.

Rollin' On - And another great song with nice vocal harmonies and a nice standout solo section.

Just Don't Know - The song starts with a drum intro followed by a single note riff from Rick. When I first heard the song the vibe of it reminded me of Easy Rider for some strange reason hehe. The bridge right before the solo is also really cool.

Chop Away - It's the slowest on the album and the "typical" three chord song with slide playing from Rick on it.

Win U Lose - Took me some time to get used to but now I love it, it's basically a bluesrocker kinda song. I like the verses which standout a little from the rest of the song.

On The Run - Izzy starts with a guitar riff which reminds me of River's Jump In Now. Then Taz comes in with some awesome drumming and the whole song starts. It's basically a three chord song but with some unexpected stops in it and with Rick making some weird slide guitar noises aswell. And then at the end when you think the song is about to come to a stop Taz starts away with the drum riff again and the song finishes in a Highway Zero kind of way.

Like A Dog - Again kinda of a bluesrocker song which is repetitive but still sounds good. It's a simple melody but sticks in your head.

And then after 5 minutes the hidden track starts; First you hear a distorted phone call between Izzy and Taz or Rick and before that's finished the drums start to kick in and the rest of the song. Just simple riffs but they sound cool, at the end there's a slower part and when that stops Izzy starts soloing until the fade out of it. That solo of him sounds pretty cool, kinda reminds me of the Nightrain solo.


Here are two 30 sec. promo samples that Izzy sent back in 2003 of Bomb and Hammerhead.

And you can hear "Chop Away" on unofficial MySpace acount http://www.myspace.com/jujuhounds

About the cd, it's the real thing, a real press but it does not contain artwork. However the full artwork is downloadable at www.beenafix.com mainpage or www.scootersteez.com.

This is how the cd looks like:

wooooo!  I now have THREE Izzy albums!  GO ME   Cool hihi

Izzy & the juju hounds
117 degrees
Like A Dog

Each album shows a different side of Izzy and how he's living over the years.  In the juju hounds, you can really sense how trapped he felt by the monstrous GNR fame, and he just wanted to shut that door to anybody who came knockin.  I also like the lyrics to the song Like A Dog - it shows Izzy as a free soul.  Cool

^ Only Like A Dog is available on www.scootersteez.com but there's a topic on the Izzy forum which contains links where you can order/buy the other albums.

Here are three 30 sec samples of Bomb, Hammerhead and Hell Song:

Nope it doesn't say thanks to Tyler in every album cover, he thanks GN'R music in the LAD cover aswell which he hasn't done that either.

Just Don't Know is a great song yeah... especially the bridge right before the solo is just cool Cool

I've got all his albums, but not bought, just in .mp3 format.  Wink And I like them a lot.

Does anyone know what happened with the material written/recorded with Slash, that, according to rumors, had been supposed to appear on Like A Dog? I'm sure I can't hear Slash on it.

^ Now that's not nice.. you should buy them and support him Wink

Izzy had made clear in 2003 who was on Like A Dog, there where no rumours about Slash/Duff being on it cause it was stated all the way back then. Like A Dog is a solo album. Basically when LAD was recorded in April/May 2003 Slash and Duff where busy with VR.

The 2 (atleast 2 we know off) albums containing Slash and Duff are from Nov/Dec 2001 and "The Project" album from Oct/Nov 2002. Here's the MTV report with comments of them on the 2001 album:

http://www.snakepit.org/0102news.html

SLASH says he is working with Izzy to finish up the album. SLASH gave us more information on that project. He says that he, SLASH, wrote 3 of the songs and did guitar work on the whole album. Duff came in and laid down the bass. Izzy does the singing and also plays guitar. SLASH says it is just about ready to go. Izzy is not into heavy promotion, so you may not see much about it. It will be for sale on the internet. SLASH says don't think of it as the next GNR or Snakepit album...it is not in that style. As soon as we know more about sale dates, we'll let you know!

The big news tonight is the MTV interview with SLASH and Duff on their forthcoming album with Izzy. Both former Gunners go over what kind of album this is, what it means for the future of the three and what the future holds for the three together. SLASH says he talks to Izzy on the phone often and got wind of Izzy's latest new project. Somehow they got together and began to work together. SLASH says we will recognize the songs as Izzy's and like Izzy's and SLASH's. SLASH says he and Izzy wrote 5 songs; all of which still need some tweaking and background vocals. Duff laid down the bass tracks for the album. Izzy's doing lead vocals and rhythm guitar. The album has no title at this time and no scheduled release date. Late summer is the timeframe for the release with the internet being the focal point for sales. SLASH and Duff don't rule out more work together, and their fans hope so too. If you want to read the full article by Jennifer Vineyard of MTV, it appears on both the MTV and the VH-1 News. Thanks to Vicki and Skorpiogirl18 for sending this in. Really interesting!

Also see the MTV site:

http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1451906/20020123/story.jhtml?headlines=true

It may not be a Guns N' Roses reunion per se, but it's the closest thing to having the original lineup back together
again in quite some time ? former GN'R guitarist Slash and bassist Duff McKagan are collaborating with fellow former
Gunner Izzy

"We got together to work on songs, and they sound like Izzy, like Izzy and Slash, so they're easy to recognize."
? Slash

Stradlin on his upcoming solo album.

It's not the first time that former GN'Rmates have joined forces since leaving the group ? McKagan played bass on
Stradlin's last two solo albums (see "Izzy Readies Second Post-GN'R Solo Effort"), and Slash has jammed over the
years with Stradlin (see "Slash: Making His Mark Without Guns") ? but the three haven't played together since the
Use Your Illusion albums in 1991, when Stradlin left the band.

"The thing with Izzy's [solo] record," Slash said, "is that I got involved with him because we talk on the phone a
lot, and he's just always doing these anonymous projects in his own quiet little fashion. It's just nice to get
together and write again.

"We got together to work on songs, and they sound like Izzy, like Izzy and Slash, so they're easy to recognize that
way," he continued. "They have a sense of humor about them, but they're loose and laid back. They're not heavy-duty, arrangement-oriented songs. They're just basic ideas that we thought were cool, so we threw it down."

Slash said that he wrote and recorded a total of five songs with Stradlin in November around the holidays, but the
songs still require about a day's worth of "fixing," as well as background vocals. Meanwhile, McKagan said that he's laid down the bass tracks for an album's worth of songs in two different sessions
in November and December at a studio in Los Angeles.

"Me and Slash are just the session guys, man," McKagan said, laughing. "I just went in and did bass tracks for the
first three songs in an hour and kept at it."

As with his previous three solo albums, Stradlin penned the bulk of the material and performs lead vocals. The LP is
currently untitled and there is no target release date other than late summer, with Internet sales being the main focus, according to his management and label, SFV Records.

Stradlin was unavailable for comment, as he is still in the studio working on the album. His camp did stress that
since the record is unfinished, there's no telling what will make the final cut.

Still, Slash and McKagan are optimistic that the sessions will see the light and could perhaps lead to more. "I'd never
rule out the idea of us three doing something with somebody singing," McKagan said. "That possibility is always there. Everything just sounds better than it ever has, but we'll see. We also realize that there's a bit of history involved, and no one wants to screw it up, not for nostalgic purposes. Only for artistic purposes.

"We wouldn't want to be that band in 'Rock Star,' or be silly," the bassist continued. "It's great to be able to afford
to say that, that we're not doing this to make a bunch of dough, and we would only give back for the right purposes.

"We're just so intertwined," McKagan added. "It's not unlike a relationship with brothers. We've lived through a lot
together, all through our 20s and early 30s. You know how a lot of people have college buddies? We're like that. We'll never not be friends. Music is a part of that, but it's beyond that. We're family."

When SLASH said the new album with Izzy and Duff would probably not be heavily promoted and just sold on the internet, we wondered where on the net the sale might happen. If it is not heavily promoted, we don't want to miss it. We have heard that it will be released through SFV Records. This is the small label that Izzy is using in the US to distribute his albums. SFV is where you can get River, Izzy's last album. You buy it right on the web site. In case you
have been looking for a copy, here's where it's sold: -Link to SFV records doesn't work anymore-


That 2nd album with "The Project" was recorded during the same time Kelly Shaefer did his audition for VR. Slash said Izzy sang the songs and according to him it was probably the best instrumental GN'R ever.. The album was recorded in a professional recording studio down the block from their rehearsel space.

In January 2006 we asked Izzy if some of those unreleased projects (also some solo albums, one complete acoustic from 2001) ever gonna see the daylight. He said that he's looking for a cool label where he'd put his latest solo album (2005) out along with some bonusmaterial and outtakes. He also had plans to release his entire solo catalogue on that label. Problem is that labels usually aren't that interested in people who spend 0 time doing promo and don't tour much (or at all) which is the thing that generates most of the income. Izzy ain't interested in the whole business thing, it puts him off. He just wants to simply write and record songs and put out an album. Once that's done he's moving on to new things again. There is tons of material, albums or projects that are biting dust in Izzy's basement.

I love Izzy songs! "Rolling on" is so fucking simple and so fucking good.
"I am rolling on cause I can't go back"... Izzy says it all in one sentence!
I think Izzy is as good as Dee Dee Ramone as far as songwriting genius.

Why are the albums so cheap on this site ? When it says, "order this album for $2.58", besides tax, is that really it ?

Thanks IzzyDutch,

You do very well keeping up w/ this thread.? ? ok

That is really cheap, guess I shouldn't complain.

How much are they going for on Itunes (per cd) ? I've never personally used it. I tried typing in " Iz Str " on the bottom of the page search but I kept getting "nothing matched my search criteria", or something like that.

Thanx again.

No..No. I typed the full name in. I just abbreviated it in my prior post to you cos I didn/t feel like typin all of it in.    hihi

But anyway, thanx for all the info. I'm assuming the w-site that offers the album's for a couple bucks is reputable?

Lastly, which album would you recommend first. I already have Ju-Ju Hounds.
Thanx again, IzzyDutch.

I think that Russian site is not a scammer no.. Smiley

About which album to get first, they're all good and a little different.. most people on the Izzy board all have different favorites. Personally I like them all but my favorite is 117 degrees and least favorite is River. The albums post JJH are all different then the JJH album, the sound is more Izzy and less Rolling Stones I'd say.

Here's a description of the album sound, but you can hear the first 30 seconds of all of Izzy's albums on that link there

Ju Ju Hounds - Very Stones / Faces sounding with several acoustics.

117 degrees - Different sound, more 'up to date' and southern rock raw sounding. This one has the most variety of songs, from blues / acoustics / rockabilly / surfrock / country / hardrock it's all there.

Ride On - In terms of sound in the same vain as 117 degrees only more faster and more raw, it's got less variety and is the most aggressive sounding Izzy album after Like A Dog. There's a song called Highway Zero which is like the sequel of Dust N' Bones and there's a song called Spazed which sounds much like Aerosmith's Spaced.

River - This one is real bassy, sounds much like the Faces a la the "Maggie May' feeling. It's got some acoustics and two reggae songs.

On Down The Road - This one is the most Stonesy sounding of all without the Faces sound aswell like the JJH, it's still quite raw and it's got several acoustics including the awesome balled 'Sweet Carress'. It's got two covers, the Stones' Please Go Home and Gone Dead Train from Crazy Horse and also played by Randy Newman.

Like A Dog - Only one ballad, Chop Away, the rest is all fast paces hardrock stuff, no acoustics. This album is the only one who really comes close to the GN'R stuff, it's got the most aggressive sounding Izzy songs to date.

Wow, thanx. Much more info than I expected, but really appreciate it.

You seem like you know alot about Izzy, and his music, so 117 degrees first it is. But, with the low cost of these, I'll probably get 117 tonight and hopefully have the rest by the end of the long weekend.   yes

O' one last thing. I should not have any trouble putting these songs from my computer to disc, right?

I promise, that's the last question. I really appreciate all the help though.    ok

I'm a big Izzy fan too.

He was definitely the most underrated Gun, IMO.

Thanx again.

Oh I assumed it was from one of his solo discs.

But Dizzy DID mention a song called "Toothpuller" that Izzy wrote about a trip to the dentist.

That wasn't made up- and I think that's kinda funny.

Hey Jackamo,

I'm pretty sure Izzy Dutch knows what he's talking about when it comes to Stradlin.

I'm not saying this to try and bully you, but trust me, he knows his shit and he wouldn't just make something up.

I'd really hate to buy a lossy copy from iTunes - but I want to support Izzy at the same time. Any ideas where I could look for leftover copies?

I guess if 300 different guys or something fill up scooter's mail box with requests like "I wanna buy an Izzy album, can you ask Izzy to do another pressing of it?" he may tell Izzy about it and Izzy will press more.
But it needs to be a lot of people involved, he won't do that for 12 or 120 people, because they press 1.000 copies at once.
It took like MONTHS (maybe more than a year) to sell those first 1000 copies, so I think he won't press another 1.000 unless he feels that there is a huge demand for it.

The real deal is SO MUCH BETTER.
I guess you guys should create a thread to see how many people want to buy the CD so maybe there is a lot of people and maybe Izzy will press more copies.

You think it's a good way to support the artist by linking to sites that rip off the artists?

Just wondering....

Just in IzzyDutch's defense, I really don't think that's what his intention was.

I mean, I know where you are coming from w/ this and I agree.

Just for the record, he was giving this info to me and I did go through Itunes for two of Izzy's cds so far..... I'm all about supporting Izzy and not ripping him off. I have no doubt Izzy Dutch feels the same.

Respectfully,

I don't loose any sleep over it, don't think Izzy will either

I don't know how it works on iTunes but on that Russian site you can also preview the first 30 seconds of the tracks, all tracks which I think people like, listening before buying it to see if they like what they hear. I was posting the link to the site more because of this reason then because it was cheaper. It's up to the people to buy them on iTunes or the Russian site.

You can get 30 second samples on iTunes as well.

Well, since Itunes actually seems to pay the artists, maybe that's a better option for those Izzy fans who'd want to buy his music.....

I actually did some research on that Russian site and it seems reputable.

From what I've heard, yes, it is cheap to go through their site to get music, but it's also cheaper to buy a Cd in Russia than it is in most other states. So that would explain the cheaper prices.

This is just a little research that I've done on my own. If any of you know of anything different.......... please advise.

You might also know that there's a problem with pirated music in Russia.


I wouldn't be surprised if Izzy didn't receive a cent from the sales of his album on that site.

Here's the e-mail I received from Scooter's in response to my question about "Like A Dog":

"currently they are not available. We are trying to get all of the Izzy recordings available to the public soon. Please keep an eye on our web site for notice of when they will be available again. Thank you for your intrest. www.scootersteez.com . The songs are also available from I -tunes I believe. Thanks Roy At Scooters"

So it looks like they'll be trying to get all of Izzy's stuff released soon - that would be great!  peace
