September 12, 2007, 17 years ago
German guitarist AXEL RUDI PELL is scheduled to release Diamonds Unlocked on September 28th in Germany, October 1st throughout the rest of Europe and October 9th in North America. It is Pell's first album consisting exclusively of compositions by other musicians.
In his latest online update he comments on his cover of the MONTROSE classic 'Rock The Nation': "Yes, the song has the same title as one song from Mystica, but nothing else in common! Rock the Nation was the first song way back in the seventies where I heard the voice of SAMMY HAGAR for the first time. I remember being in some kind of rock disco where it was played very very loud. From that point on I loved this tune. We arranged the guitar solo a bit different to the original studio version by Montrose, but sometimes they played it live similar to our version. Hope you like this rocker!"
