In at #3, the Ozzy Osbourne classic, “Crazy Train,” showed up in a new car commercial and, while it won’t make me buy the product, the ad was well produced and executed.
Beyond the Gene Simmons items, the second-most visible rockers among hennemusic readers was Guns N’ Roses, who also took three of this week's spots on the HH10.
At #4, Gilby Clarke has spoken publicly about a GNR reunion, suggesting he’d do it if he knew Slash would commit to the concept; at #5, we have the full GNR set from Rock in Rio, as Axl Rose shows up 2 hours late to sing in the driving rain; and, at #9, former GNR bassist Duff McKagan was one of the first ex-members to be quoted in the press about a possible reunion next year, should the band be voted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame.
Other big news among hennemusic readers included a 35th Anniversary edition of Aerosmith’s “Rocks” (#6); details on the cause of death of former Warrant singer Jani Lane (#8); and, at #10, Black Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi confirms his first US book-signing to launch his upcoming autobiography.
