Glam Rock Icon MICHAEL DES BARRES Releases New Live Album Hot 'n Sticky

Glam Rock Icon MICHAEL DES BARRES Releases New Live Album Hot 'n Sticky
Riding the wave of critical acclaim from critics and peers such as Stevie Van Zandt for his album Carnaby Street,Michael Des Barres is releasing a live album recently recorded at the legendary Viper Room in Hollywood. Hot 'n Sticky is just as the title describes, delivering the songs from Carnaby Street and other personal favorites the way this music is meant to be enjoyed. It's down-n-dirty, straight-up rock 'n roll played by a great band, and Michael Des Barres is here to bring it back with Hot 'n Sticky.
"I had no plans to record a live album that night. I record everything so I have something to dance to, but this happened to be one of those hot and sticky nights when the music plays itself, and we became like a primal, blusey, electric machine. Of course it helps that we've played every club, dive bar and juke joint that would have us. That's where rock 'n roll lives --- no video screens, no lasers, dancers or lip synching, just raw incantations from the Olympian heights of rock 'n roll heaven."
- Michael Des Barres
Hot 'n Sticky will be officially released by MDBimmedia on November 5, 2013and will be available in both digital and physical formats via all major outlets including iTunes, Amazon, CDbaby and directly from the artist atmichaeldesbarres.bandcamp.com.

"Rock ain't near dead, and if you need any convincing on this point listen no further than Michael Des Barres' fiery new live set,
Hot 'n Sticky. This disc will cure what ails you with ample doses of rhythm, blues, and a pure love of rock 'n' roll. The set moves, grooves, and shakes you down with a top-flight band of LA aces and a frontman who melts all those before him.

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
