The rock is flowin with Cherie Currie. 6 tracks close to being finished already.Guitars by Nick Maybury and bass Grant Fitzpatrick. Great tones in a classic sense. Vox, Ampeg,Magnatone, silvertone, les paul, SG, 335 all the best stuff, 63 ludwigs on an analog board.

Extremely anxious to hear some of this - Currie is one of my all time favorite front women.

Great day in the Studio with Cherie Currie Getting real close to a finished album. Have 11 tracks , some overdubs and vocals to do and maybe 2 more after the New Year . Mix , master and get out to the world. A great RNR Record. I must say. Many guests as well to be included.

Here is some footage of Matt Sorum and Cherie Currie in the studio:

The session with Cherie Currie for her song "You Wreck Me" with Matt Sorum producing, couldn't have gone better. All the horn section parts I wrote worked for the song and Matt and Cherie were pleased with it. I blew some solos and riffs through out the vamp. I played a sax solo on one other song and a good time was had by all. We love days like that.

Video Footage Of MATT SORUM In The Studio With CHERIE CURRIE Available - Feb. 2, 2011

Video footage of Jimmy Z laying down the horn parts on the song "You Wreck Me" for the new album from ex-RUNAWAYS singer Cherie Currie on January 27, 2011 at Matt Sorum's (VELVET REVOLVER, GUNS N' ROSES) studio in California can be viewed below.

As previously reported, VELVET REVOLVER guitarist Slash, bassist Duff McKagan and SMASHING PUMPKINS mainman Billy Corgan are among the guests who appear on the CD. Tentatively due out later this year, the record was produced by Sorum, who told The Pulse Of Radio what it sounded like. "The most modern kind of take I could put on things would be QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE meets the YEAH YEAH YEAHS meets, like, the RUNAWAYS," he said. "And then we've got a little bit of depth, we're doing a couple of ballads. It's a great-sounding rock 'n' roll record. It's coming out great."

Sorum said he's also lined up guest appearances on the disc from Juliette Lewis and Courtney Love.
