How
many musicians can you name that have played and recorded with Tom
Jones, Manfred Mann's Earth Band, Denny Laine, Uriah Heep, David
Gilmour, The Firm, and AC/DC and many others?
Well,
if I did not mention AC/DC, you probably could not name such a
person. As it is, AC/DC has been in the news for months, mostly about
their new album “Rock or Bust” and most recently, about their
Feb. 8th performance at the Grammy's.
Chris
Slade is the well traveled, man of the world and probably the only
musician to have played with so many other great artists.
Chris
will be filling in for longtime AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd. Phil is
embroiled in a mess of personal legal troubles that prevent him from
working with the band at this time, and AC/DC have called on Chris
Slade to fill in for the band's upcoming world tour in support of
“Rock or Bust.”
This is
no surprise, Chris Slade worked with the group years ago, recorded
with them 'The Razor's Edge” and toured with them, so bringing him
back was an obvious choice.
For
fans everywhere, this is good news.
Welcome
back Chris!
