John Corabi et Mick Mars

[Everflow]

Ce n'est pas encore officiel mais il semblerait bien que les ex-comparses vont monter un projet ensemble, puisque l'aventure Mötley touche à sa fin.

John Corabi, former lead singer of MÖTLEY CRÜE, THE SCREAM and UNION, says that he plans to collaborate again with MÖTLEY CRÜE guitarist Mick Mars after the completion of the CRÜE's "The Final Tour".

Corabi originally joined CRÜE in 1992 as the replacement for the group's original singer, Vince Neil, who was fired due to personal differences. With Corabi on vocals, MÖTLEY CRÜE released one critically acclaimed full-length CD, which ended up being a commercial failure in the wake of grunge despite a Top-Ten placing on the album chart. When Neil returned to the fold in 1997, Corabi was left on his own and formed the band UNION with ex-KISS guitarist Bruce Kulick.

In a 2012 interview, Mars stated about MÖTLEY CRÜE's 1994 self-titled album: "I thought that was probably… To me, and I can only speak for me, I think that was probably the best album we've done. Musical-wise, the songs, I felt, were strong. And just musically, to me, it was, I guess, my BEATLES 'White Album'; that's kind of how I feel about that one. I'm not saying that any of my other albums are crummy or anything like that — I love every album that we did — but that one just has a special thing for me."

Asked if there are any plans for him to work with Mars again, Corabi told Jack Antonio of the "Do You Know Jack?" radio show (hear audio below): "Yeah, actually I was just talking to him the other day. A lot of people already know about it, but as soon as he's done doing this next tour, Mick and I have had some discussions about possibly going in and doing some writing together and doing a record, and maybe going out and doing some shows. So we'll see how that works."

Corabi also talked about what it was like playing guitar for MÖTLEY CRÜE during the tour in the support of the band's self-titled album and being the guy that Mars could "bump ideas off." He said: "Mick's a great player. He really doesn't need anybody to bump ideas off of. I just basically… Me being able to play [guitar], and play as well as I do, allowed Mick to do… Mick didn't have to worry about, 'Okay, I've gotta play the rhythm here.' 'Okay, I've gotta [break into] the solo,' 'Now I've gotta get back to the rhythm.' He had the freedom to just be the lead guitar player, and I was able to cover up and do whatever rhythms he asked me to do that gave him freedom to be that lead guy. And I think he enjoyed it."

Corabi previously told Philadelphia's 93.3 WMMR radio station about the possibility of collaborating again with Mick Mars on the MÖTLEY CRÜE guitarist's forthcoming solo album: "I don't know what he wants to do musically, but at the end of the day, I love Mick Mars — he's one of the sweetest human beings you'll ever meet in your life — and anything I can do to help him with his solo record, I would be more than happy to do. I appreciate the fact that Mick has been just stupidly supportive of what we did in the past, and I appreciate Mick's talent as a guitar player; I think he's totally underrated. And anything I can do to help him, he's more than willing to help me with what I wanna do. So we'll have to see where it goes from there."

Je l'ai déjà dit, je le redis : les 3 compères de Motley moins Neil doivent rebosser avec John Corabi. Il faut le sauver des concerts dans des rades devant 40 pèlerins, il a trop de talent pour ça. Et "Motley Crue", l'album, mérite une suite. Il n'y a plus rien qui les empêche de le faire maintenant. Corabi pourra éventuellement faire le vexé pendant 5 minutes, mais ce sera pour la forme

Largement trop sous-estimé cet album, c'est clair!

Les albums de Union avec bruce kulick sont pas degueux non plus.

Corabi a été le meilleur chanteur des Crüe. L'album est absolument magnifique. Ce type a une voix extraordinaire, avec un méchant grain qui donne un beau feeling aux morceaux calmes, et un chouette gnack aux titres bien rock.
Mes deux Union sont usés jusqu'à la trame, tellement je les ai écoutés!

Pour moi, Vince Neil est une infâme crécelle qui chante affreusement faux en live! La preuve par le live qui suit, où Corabi et Neil se filent la réplique:

En parlant de cet album, Corabi souhaite sortir un DVD de son interprétation intégrale récente :

Former MÖTLEY CRÜE singer John Corabi is planning to release a live album and DVD of his performance of the band's entire 1994 self-titled album, recorded earlier this year in Nashville, Tennessee.

Corabi originally joined CRÜE in 1992 as the replacement for the group's original singer, Vince Neil, who was fired due to personal differences. With Corabi on vocals, MÖTLEY CRÜE released one critically acclaimed full-length CD, which ended up being a commercial failure in the wake of grunge despite a Top-Ten placing on the album chart. When Neil returned to the fold in 1997, Corabi was left on his own and formed the band UNION with ex-KISS guitarist Bruce Kulick.
