And now, on with the show.

Well, hey, everyone, it's Nate.

Welcome to episode 358 of the Vinyl Guide, the podcast for record

collectors and music nerds. And today, we be talking to Doug Aldrich of the Dead Daisies.

Now, the Dead Daisies have a new album out. It's called Radiance. I got my hands on a copy,

and it is really, really fun. A great spin. The Dead Daisies are a hard rock band with what seems to be a rotating cast of members,

and some very notable names in rock have been part of this band's history.

Now, the Dead Daisies are the brainchild of guitarist David Lowy,

whose family is quite well known in the world of business.

We talked to Doug today about working with David and how

being in the Dead Daisies is not like being in any other band. Also in the Dead Daisies is Glenn

Hughes, whom you all know from Deep Purple, Tony Iommi, Black Country Communion, and more. And also,

the Dead Daisies recently announced the return to Brian Teaky on the drum kit. So all up,

the new album, Radiance is really good, solid songwriting, and there's even an Easter egg in the

vinyl package, which we talk about on the show today. That Doug and I hit on a lot of topics,

working with the Dead Daisies, how the group operates, the rotating band members,

Doug's time with deal, white snake, hard lessons in a life of rock and roll, and of course,

final records. Plus, there's an extended version of this interview, an extra 15 or 20 minutes

or so, only for patreon.com slash vinyl guide supporters. If you like this podcast, you want to hear more,
