SHAMELESS – So Good, You Should… (2022)
Glammy hard rock band SHAMELESS was formed in the Spring of 1989 by bassist Alexx “Skunk” Michael in Munich, Germany. After a breakup, Michael decided to reform Shameless in 1998 with his friend and guitar player BC. Alexx enlisted help from drummer Eric Singer (KISS, Alice Cooper, Black Sabbath), who’s introduction to Steve “Sex” Summers (Pretty Boy Floyd) and Stevie Rachelle (Tuff) started a long-lasting musical relationship.
Since then, the international outfit has released 7 full-length albums and went on numerous tours. For their new 2022 album “So Good, You Should…”, Michael again teamed up with guitarist partner BC, Charlotte Tybalt, Dennis Post, Stevie Rachelle (Tuff), Frankie Muriel and Tod T Burr to release their first ever covers album which also includes 2 brand-new original tracks.
Due to the pandemic making in-person studio recording impossible, Shameless recorded the recorded music at 12 different locations all over the world including Munich, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, St. Louis, Copenhagen and Auckland, New Zealand.
Charlotte sings 5 tracks plus adding backing vocals on almost all the others. Like on all Shameless releases, Tuff singer Stevie Rachelle, sang on a couple of the songs.
Kiss legend Bruce Kulick is featured on a total of 4 songs including their version of the unreleased Gene Simmons song “Love is blind” and the cover of “East Bound And Down” where the band was joined by Jaret Reddick of Bowling For Soup on vocals.
