was (And is...They reformed this past summer, But I don't think many noticed) the former lead singer/guitarist of Stryper.

As for Roth? Really bad that he is reduced to playing Indian casinos here on Oklahoma, And even then no one shows up to care...Most thought he was the door man

I have zero memory....so I cannot think of who you're talking about. LOL Anybody here remember that?

You know, I had a similar reaction when I heard that. Although, it may just have been a weird metamorphosis of the Portuguese guitar style that album is going for. Nelly was born in Toronto to Portuguese parents and she is very much influenced by Portuguese music. I believe even the album title, Folklore, is a tribute to that very distinct style of music.

Musica portuguesa conquista o mundo finalmente.

And, talk about covers that come close to, if not surpass the original recording...


That girl who had that big hit "I'm A Bitch", a few years ago...Meredith whatsername. I remember reading about her in Guitar Player magazine around the time her hit was peaking and her first "influence" she named was Lindsey.

Hate to admit it, but you're right. That is one of the best covers ever.

Dude, thanks for introducing me to a cool band. I'm digging that stuff. Although the sing-songy aspect of some of the songs may be a bit of a turnoff.

I see what you mean. Sounds like Tango-era guitar licks were one of their inspirations. Have they said anything to this effect?

Well, actually, you were all helping me with a project I was working on. I'm done now, but thanks to all who contributed!!

Meredith Brooks is the "I'm a B*itch" singer, Chilid. I didn't know she was influenced by Lindsey!

Cool.
