JAKE E. LEE Recording With STARSHIP Vocalist - Jan. 30, 2008

According to MelodicRock.com, singer Mickey Thomas (JEFFERSON STARSHIP) is currently recording material at The Tone Factory Studios for a new album that will feature Aynsley Dunbar (JOURNEY, WHITESNAKE, UFO) on drums, Danny Miranda (BLUE ÖYSTER CULT, QUEEN + PAUL RODGERS) on bass and Jake E. Lee (OZZY OSBOURNE, BADLANDS) on guitar. A late 2008 release via Direct Music is expected.

Jake E. Lee's "covers" album, "Retraced", was released in the U.S. in April 2005 via Shrapnel Records. The CD, which was engineered by Michael Lardie (GREAT WHITE), features the following lineup of musicians:

Jake E. Lee (OZZY OSBOURNE, BADLANDS): guitars
Chris Logan (MSG): Vocals
Tim Bogert (VANILLA FUDGE, BECK, BOGERT & APPICE): Bass
Aynsley Dunbar (WHITESNAKE, MSG, UFO): Drums

All the songs were recorded in a "power trio" format ala BADLANDS and the tracks for the project are cover songs along that style (bluesy power rock).

Thanks for the heads up.................................

So....a power trio is comprised of four musicians?!? They must not count the drummer as a musician.

Pretty cool, dare I say it looks like a supergroup?

I'll be interested to hear it. I hope Jake gets room to really play on it. Sounds like he should if it's a "power trio" sort of thing.

Of course they don't. You do?

I'm reading that part as a reference to his retraced album.
