Snakecharmer Review
January 22, 2013 by 5 Comments
I live in the United States, and given my age, I was a “musical child of the 80’s”. I was 15 in 1980, and music of that era is what dominated my rock listening style. Like a lot of Americans, I was introduced to Whitesnake through the Slide it In album, and that crystallized […]

Next month we will be getting an album of new material from Snakecharmer (that’s also the album’s name), a band made up of some former Whitesnake members (Micky Moody & Neil Murray), as well as a Black Sabbath connection (Neil again, and Adam Wakeman). I should have some more promotional material available shortly, but […]

If you’ve been following me for awhile (and especially on Twitter), you’ll know I like to post playlists. Given my overall music collection is so gigantic, I generally have a playlist for every band I like. I’ve posted several of them to twitter. However, this afternoon when I was thinking about Ronnie James Dio, I […]
