Ronnie Romero w/ Chris Caffery - 'The Shining' (Black Sabbath cover)

There's a man who sees all there is to see
What the future holds for all
As the days grow dark, was his sole and final warning
Beware of the one with invisible friends
They will steal into your mind
And all too soon, the signs begin to show

Rise up to the shining
Live long live now
Rise up to the shining
Don't be blind by fools again
Fools again
As the page is turned and the story's told
From the visions he had seen
The house on the hill with the haunting eyes that call
No one left when madness came out
To play its game
If you stay too long, you'll finally go insane

Rise up to the shining
Live long live now
Rise up to the shining
Don't be blind by fools again
Fools again

Bells will take their toll
On your way
There's no way we're born to shine
Before our time, all your life, you're
On your own
Lonely road
Lost in a time
Let the light lead your way
To the golden throne
It's the only way

Rise up to the shining
Live long live now
Rise up to the shining
Don't be blind by fools again
Rise up to the shining
Live long live now
Rise up to the shining

Oh rise up, to the shining
Wise up, they're gonna steal your mind
Rise up, the house is gonna haunt you
No one laughed, no one cried
You stayed too long
You're finally gonna stay


Ronnie Romero - 'Raised On Heavy Radio'
Ο Ronald (ή Ronnie) Romero έγινε γνωστός στο ευρύ μουσικόφιλο κοινό όταν τον επέλεξε ο Richie Blackmore στην πρόσφατη επανένωση των Rainbow. Το "κύριο" συγκρότημα του Χιλιανού τραγουδιστή είναι οι Lords of Black, ενώ τον ακούμε επίσης στους Michael Schenker Group, The Ferrymen, CoreLeoni, Sunstorm κλπ. Φέτος τον απολαύσαμε (και) σε προσωπικό δίσκο, ο οποίος φέρει τον τίτλο "Raised On Radio", κυκλοφόρησε τον περασμένο Απρίλη και περιέχει διασκευές.

Δίσκος διασκευών θα είναι και το νέο πόνημα του Ronnie Romero. Από το "Raised On Radio" στο "Raised On Heavy Radio" όπου διασκευάζει πιο heavy τραγούδια σε σχέση με τον φετινό του δίσκο. Το "Raised On Heavy Radio" αναμένεται στην αυγή του νέου έτους.

Παρακολουθούμε το βίντεο με την διασκευή στο έπος των Black Sabbath "The Shining" (βλ. το εναρκτήριο τραγούδι της δισκάρας "The Eternal Idol" που βγήκε το 1987 και ήταν το πρώτο album των Sabbs με τον Tony Martin στα φωνητικά), για την οποία ο Ronnie δέχθηκε τα συγχαρητήρια του Tony Iommi...

Δελτίο τύπου: «Ronnie Romero has announced the upcoming release of 'Raised On Metal Radio', a companion album of sorts to his first covers album, "Raised On Radio", on January 27, 2023.

This time out, Romero pays tribute to legendary artists from the metal world like Ozzy Osbourne, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Accept, Metallica, and more. Special guests on the album include Gus G. (Firewind, Ozzy Osbourne), Chris Caffery (Savatage, Spirits Of Fire), Roland Grapow (Masterplan, Helloween), and more.

Romero's voice and prolific musical activity have brought him to the forefront of the hard rock/metal scene where he can be seen/heard with Lords of Black, The Ferrymen, Sunstorm, Rainbow, and the Michael Schenker Group.

Through his work fronting these acts, it is no stretch to see how the artists covered on this album have influenced Romero and understand how his voice is well suited to give them a proper tribute.

Ambitious and driven as always, this record is another special treat for fans while Romero continues work on his proper debut solo album of original material. Romero's first solo covers album, "Raised On Radio", featured covers of classics that meant something special to Romero over the years and helped forge this talented singer's musical style.

Songs by legendary acts like Survivor, Bad Company, Foreigner, Queen, Led Zeppelin, and more were given Romero's talented vocal treatment. These classic rock and AOR covers showcased a different side of Romero's musical influences and were executed with passion, charisma, and power.

Now, with this second installment of covers, "Raised On Metal Radio", Romero showcases his love of metal music, for which he is more widely known. Through Romero's career thus far, he has performed killer renditions of several rock and metal classics as part of his shows fronting legendary acts like Rainbow and the Michael Schenker Group (MSG).

He's also covered classic songs by Journey, Queen, Rainbow, and more with Spanish metallers Lords Of Black. So, with trying his hand at covers by legendary artists being familiar territory already, both cover albums were waters that Romero was comfortable wading into.»

  1. Πάρα πολύ καλή διασκευή. Έξτρα πόντος για το τραγούδι που διάλεξαν να διασκευάζουν. Ψαγμένη επιλογή.
