Why do I always get to review the Tribute CDs? Maybe because I'm the only idiot that listens to them. Well this is the track listing:
"Seperate Way" by Kelly Hansen of Hurricane
"Any Way You Want It" by Alex Mitchell of Circus Of Power
"Faithfully" by Marq Torien of BulletBoys
"Don't Stop Believing" by Eric Dover of Slash's Snakepit
"Open Arms" by Jizzy Pearl of Love/Hate/Ratt
"Girl Can't Help It" by John Corabi of Ratt/Union
"Only The Young" by Mark Knight of Worry Beads
"Lovin' Touchin' Squeezin'" by Chaz West of Jason Bonham Band
"Wheel In The Sky" by Kelly Hansen of Hurricane
"Be Good To Yourself" by Ralph Saenz of The Atomic Punks/Metal Shop
"Who's Crying Now" by Kory Clarke of Warrior Soul
"Lights" by Stevie Rachelle of Tuff

I believe this is the first tribute CD that Ralph Saenz is on so that's cool. Too bad he couldn't have been on the Van Halen tribute CD. Seeing Marq Torien's next to "Faithfully" was scary and funny at the same time, but actually he didn't do too bad. Nobody did too horribly bad considering most of these guys have no business trying to sound like Steve Perry. Stevie Rachelle sounds a little ruff on "Lights" and Alex Mitchell didn't need to be on the CD either, but overall I've heard worse. Musically this is probably one of the better tributes.

Comments: I still want to know who actually enjoys these things.
