Title: Scott's solo album - "12 Bar Blues" Post by: EstrangedReality on November 16, 2007, 01:32:19 PM Has anyone else heard this? I think it's better than most of the VR stuff. The cover for the album is a riff on John Coltrane's Blue Train, which I think is really cool.
Example: Weiland = http://www.linge.de/music/records/mehldau/covers/12_bar_blues.jpg Coltrane = http://www.ngcsu.edu/cavalli/Blue-Train.jpg Not a huge Weiland fan, but his elastic vocals and experimental styles really work well here. He was on heroin when he wrote the album, and the lyrics are superbly nonsensical because of this. The music video for "Barbarella" is fucked up.

But then you start to appreciate the diverse styles. Just catchy songs like About Nothing, then great ballads like Son. He's talented and I hope he releases his 2nd solo album soon!
