Finally...

I'm not always a huge fan of tribute albums. I don't know what it is, maybe I always just prefer the original. However, in the exception to the rule, I am really excited for this latest Beatles tribute album. It's called Butchering The Beatles where heavy metal's luminaries collaborate on some of the Fab Four's classics. I'm sold on Billy Idol doing "Tomorrow Never Knows". To be released Oct. 24 (via FMQB). 1. "Hey Bulldog" – Alice Cooper, vox; Steve Vai, guitars; Duff McKagen (Velvet Revolver / Guns N Roses), bass; Mikkey Dee (Motorhead), drums 2.
