While gearing up to yield Poison on bout with Def Leppard this summer, Bret Michaels begin time to assemble an all-star casting of guests for his new LP, Bret Michaels and Friends: Get Your Bedrock On, due out in September.
"Every song on it is a accord with added musicians," says Michaels. "And it's such a assorted ambit of people, from Loretta Lynn and Joe Perry [who play on a adjustment of the Poision hit "Every Rose Has Its Thorn"] and Jimmy Buffett to Lil Jon, Michael Anthony, Ace Frehley, all the Skynyrd guys, guys from .38 Special and Blackfoot and Rascal Flatts' Jay [DeMarcus]. These are accompany and humans I've played with, partied with, awash with throughout the years."
A new arrangement of Poison's "Nothin' But a Good Time" unites Frehley, Anthony and Lil Jon. "Ace Frehley is the absolute deal," says Michaels. "He laid down this amazing abandoned and again Michael Anthony came in, he did the backups, and I was like, 'Just play some Michael Anthony licks.' He did, and that's what fabricated abracadabra on the song."
While abounding of the featured artists are now accompany of Michaels, they started off as his bedrock & cycle heroes. That's a lot of credible on his arrangement of "Sweet Home Alabama." "I did [it] with all the guys from Lynyrd Skynyrd, the guys from Blackfoot and .38 Special," he says. "That was amazing because apparently my aboriginal bottom in the aperture as a adolescent was acceptable country, again I got angry assimilate the Beatles and Stones. Again I anon fell in adulation with Southern rock, which was affectionate of a absolute admixture of country and rock."
Michaels isn't done recruiting collaborators. He hopes to get Zakk Wylde to appear in and accommodate "Go That Far," the affair from Rock of Love. And afterwards blockage out Cheap Trick in concert recently, he got addition idea. "I'd like to get Rick Nielsen to appear in to play on 'Talk Dirty to Me,'" he says. "I anticipate that'd be abundant to accept him appear in and put his appearance on a song that I adapted in an over-the-top, punk-metal fashion."
Though Michaels says, "This could be the amaranthine record," he's focused on finishing the LP and can't advice but get aflame about the affairs of approaching collaborations. "If I was to do addition one of these records, it's cutting the bulk of possibilities," he says. "I've been onstage with Jimmy Page, he's appear and played with Poison in Reno, Nevada, and it was an amazing night. And endure year, I played with Toby Keith and partied with him. The account is endless."
