well had more time to listen and...

Well I got a chance to really listen to the Album a little bit more and I have to Say I am highly satisfied with this effort on Meat's behalf the vocals are awesome. He sounds like he is back to his 100 percent, Now lets make sure he stays very healthy this year for the tour fans. Hoping Los Angeles or Vegas are on the list of shows I would be happy with a early September date or November not real sure I would be able to get a date off in October due to my Job.

He Rocks this Album i am thinking it ranks up there with Bat 1 and 2 and CHSIB.

My Personal Review Of HCTB

To anybody that really reads this Blog Welcome

For those of us in the United States that have to wait another week or two for HCTB (Hang Cool Teddy Bear) Meat Loaf's latest release on Roadrunner records. This review will come to a big surprise because I am reviewing it Prior to the US Release Via the release of Vinyl from the UK.

yes I did Say Vinyl.

I Must Say First and Foremost THIS IS NOT YOUR FATHERS MEAT LOAF He has out done himself with this album. from very strong guest artist to the production. I would rate this up there with BOH II this album just plain Rocks. Meat is sounding incredible there is not really a bad song on this record.

I will say this it is not a bat album but very close as far as the story telling of the album.

If you are a true fan you will love it if you are new to Meat Loaf you will say wow this guy can sing and he is good.

Guest artist Jack Black is good on Like a Rose I am not sure about that song but I will say it is kind of the comedy relief the album needs.

Lets Be In Love is a Great song that shows off the Vocal Talent of Patti Ruso. I am so Glad she is back with the band don't get me wrong I also liked Aspen she was great to but the combo of Patti and CC just rocks.

Can't Wait For the Live Shows.

That will be interesting because we Lost Kasim and Mark from the Neverland Express. So who will Replace those great talents.

For Now we will just Keep Rockin'

Meat You have another Great album on your hands.

Matthew
