Next Quiet Riot album....

[David]

Kevin DuBrow talks briefly about the new Quiet Riot record....

Quote:

We should start the next QR album sometime next month although no studio time has been booked yet. It should be a big musical departure if the demos are any indication. Our friend Glenn Hughes is coming up to Vegas next week to work on a few more songs for the next album and I’m really looking forward to that. Glenn is the greatest living singer on the planet and we will benefit greatly from his participation.

Hmm...writing or singing?

I would love to have heard Glenn singing with Kevin on that nine-minute version of "Metal Health" he did with QRiot down in Florida last year...

Cheers....Todd

I was there! YAY! Hopefully he'll do a guest singing job or two, or twenty when it's recorded LOL!

Nothing against Kevin's singing, it's quite enjoyable also! Just, what can I say, you can never hear Glenn's singing enough LOL!

Hey there! I'm new, so if this is old news I'm sorry. I just read on a Classic Rock News site that Kevin Dubrow is writing with Glenn for the next Quiet Riot album next week in Las Vegas.

Looks like GLENN will indeed do more than just writing......he's now also due to do a duet with Kevin DuBrow, in addition to the bass work on one track, for the upcoming Quiet Riot album - the Spooky Tooth classic, “Evil Woman”, according to a message from Kevin a couple of months ago.

Meantime, Frankie Banali writes....

I am thrilled to report that another very dear friend Tony Franklin will be playing bass on the new CD. I have had the opportunity to work with some wonderful bass players in my career, but none better than Tony. He is the bass players "bass player" and a pleasure to play with. Very soon we will be ready for Mr. Kevin DuBrow to record the vocals. Kevin has come up with some truly inspiring vocals on this one, and as a bonus we will have Glenn Hughes on a vocal duet with Kevin on a special song with Glenn also contributing his unique bass playing to that one track as well. This will be the first track since the 1982 "Hughes/Thrall" release that Glenn and I are the recorded rhythm section. I hope that those who are fans of QUIET RIOT will be both pleased and surprised with the new CD. Everyone else, like it or not can make up their own minds. At the moment, it's all good with QUIET RIOT! Best, Frankie Banali Los Angeles, CA 3/6/05

QUIET RIOT drummer Frankie Banali has posted the following message on his official web site:

"I am happy to report that I have completed the drum and percussion tracks for the new QUIET RIOT studio CD. Next we will commence recording the rhythm and lead guitars courtesy of Neil Citron. Neil, who is one of my closets friends and a truly amazing guitarist, has been playing some really wonderful parts for the new QUIET RIOT songs which are the most varied we have written to date. The guitars will be followed by the bass tracks. I am thrilled to report that another very dear friend Tony Franklin [WHITESNAKE, THE FIRM] will be playing bass on the new CD. I have had the opportunity to work with some wonderful bass players in my career, but none better than Tony. He is the bass players' 'bass player' and a pleasure to play with. Very soon we will be ready for Mr. Kevin DuBrow to record the vocals.

QUIET RIOT recently enlisted their friend and guitarist Billy Morris (ex-WARANT) to perform with them on selected live dates in the same capacity as he has done in the past.

QUIET RIOT parted ways with guitarist Tracii Guns (BRIDES OF DESTRUCTION, ex-L.A. GUNS) less than a month after announcing his addition to the group. The split was attributed at the time to "the musical diversity of styles" which "would not work to our mutual satisfaction
