QUEEN's Brian May To Guest On New MEAT LOAF Album
August 21, 2009, 15 years ago
Gary Graff from Billboard.com is reporting:
MEAT LOAF is staying relatively tight-lipped about his next album, which is expected in 2010, but he can't help gushing about what a great time he's having making it.
Credit for that, the inger says, goes to producer Rob Cavallo (KID ROCK, GREEN DAY, GOO GOO DOLLS), who's helming Meat Loaf's first release since 2006's "Bat Out of Hell III: The Monster Is Loose. "That's a real producer," Meat Loaf tells Billboard.com. "That's the real deal. His ego does not get in the way of an artist. He'll make a ton of suggestions and make it much better than it was. He lets my horses run, and (with) other producers the best I could get out of them was a gallop sometimes. But my horses are running on this record, and I'll stop my horses from time to time and go, 'Rob? I don't know what to do now,' and he'll come up with brilliant ideas."
Meat Loaf says he and Cavallo are "pretty much 50 percent" finished with the album, but he won't say whether it's another thematic work or a song collection. "You'll have to wait and see. I'm not giving away anything on this record." He did, however, confirm that QUEEN's Brian May, who also guested on Bat III, contributed "a little 12-bar solo" for one of the songs.
