It isn't a secret that I am a huge 80s music fan. Otherwise, I wouldn't be here. That said, I am sure you guys are hungry for some great hooks and awesome R&R music. Look no further than Billy Idol's latest "Devil's Playground." He is back with Steve Steven (for years) and the album kicks ass from beginning to end. Check out these links for a sample of the tunes. I guarantee you will not be disappointed. Trust me, I am a huge fan the VH/DLR sound. I've always thought that, in another life, EDVH would hook up with Idol. But hey, the great Steve Stevens is no slouch. BTW, if you heard the single scream, that tune is only a sample of the great tunes on the CD. Also, he is on tour to support the album. Do yourselves a favor and go watch the guy. Talk about great frontmen. Dave will always be tops, but this guy is amazing at 49!!! Anyhow, if you decide to buy it, get it at Target for $9.98. You'll get two great bonus tracks online.
