mellie Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 Lee, Stevie Wonder released a CD two years ago and today a formal announcement was released for plans to go on tour. I would be real surprised if a LIVE CD/DVD doesn't come out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenny309 Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 TODD solo?? I thought he was immersed in The CARS project with touring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Marshall Posted August 5, 2007 Author Share Posted August 5, 2007 Thanks for the responses so far. Kind of expected there would be more. Didn't think of Springsteen... His profile is still so high. Too bad Stevie's tour is going to be kind of limited/short. He certainly still has 'it'.Good info on Jackson, 'Alice', Todd and the rest.More please.

Poor4Life Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 Paul Rodgers just released a great live CD/DVD "Live in Glasgow".Cheap Trick's last CD "Rockford" was thier best in years.Jimmy Buffett's last two CD's "License to Chill" and "Weather with You" shows he's still got it.Sammy Hagar put out a great one last year, called "Livin' it Up".and although I haven't heard it, Peter Frampton's instrumental CD "Fingerprints" garnered good reviews.Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Nathan Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 while Todd is definitely immersed in that New Car smell... his last album, "Liars" was clearly his best work in a decade (or two) --- AND I just got a Ticketmaster notice that he will be doing a solo gig next month at the House Of Blues here in LA.
