Some Along Came a Spider questions

Post by Stuart » Sun Jul 27, 2008 7:27 pm

Just a few questions about the new album that I hope someone can help me out on.

1. Was Dick Wagner ever involved in the album?
2. Does anyone know if these 11 songs were written more recently? I recall reading a while back that there were some 37 songs, but the ones with Greg Hampton, were they written once Alice met up with the producer?
3. Was it worth the wait for the new album? Was it originally scheduled to come out in May 2007? Then it became a double album, then it became the current form?

If you go to the recent interview at http://www.sickthingsuk.co.uk/interview ... ly2008.php , you will see there was some discussion about this.

I notice from the cd booknotes that Slash was mentioned as guesting on one track and a certain J Osbourne was given a credit in writing another but nowhere was Ozzy given a credit for the harmonica part.
Anything I say or write is my own personal opinion, no matter who agrees or disagrees with me.

What Kevin is saying is that he was given credit for writing on the song but didn't see a credit for him playing on it.

That's right WYM, i was merely observing what i saw in the book.

And yes, Ozzys real name is John, but he never answers to it.
