Original Rainbow Member Craig Gruber Dead At 63

And he says rather than embracing the technology, record executives "made a mess" that they still don't know how to clean up.
He tells the Jakarta Informer: "It's not that Napster changed anything - it's that the stupid music industry didn't see this amazing technology and say, 'My God, we could do so much with this,' and instead tried to destroy it and tried to treat people as criminals.

"What can you do money-wise if a billion people download your songs for free? It could have been the tiniest little subscription - it could have been ads or sponsors. There are a million ways it could have been done and the music industry had a lot of time to figure it out."

The event marked the group's third live date of 2015, following back to back weekend appearances at Coachella on April 10 and April 17. AC/DC's 20-song set was similar to their Coachella shows, with some changes in the running order - this time opening with the title track to their latest album, "Rock Or Bust."

The tour marks the return of guitarist Stevie Young and drummer Chris Slade to the lineup following the retirement of founder Malcolm Young and a series of legal issues faced by longtime member Phil Rudd.

Punk-metal super-group Teenage Time Killers is reported to have a who's who of music notables appearing on their upcoming release, including Dave Grohl, Corey Taylor of Slipknot and Stone Sour, Jello Biafra from the Dead Kennedys, Lee Ving from Fear, and Foo Fighters' Pat Smear for their debut album, Greatest Hits Vol. 1.

He tells 100percentrock: "I'm happy for the guys. I get their thinking. They don't want to be a band that overstays their welcome and they don't want to fade off. They want to go out with a bang and they want to go out on a high note. So I'm all for it.

The tune is one of several previously unreleased and alternative takes of a selection of album tracks featured on the project, including an alternative version of "Brown Sugar" featuring Eric Clapton; unreleased versions of "Bitch" and "Dead Flowers"; an acoustic take on "Wild Horses", and five tracks recorded live at The Roundhouse in 1971 including "Honky Tonk Women" and "Midnight Rambler" - all featured on the Deluxe and Super Deluxe Editions.

Due June 8 (June 9 in North America), the remastered album will be available on CD, 2CD, LP, 2LP, a Deluxe Edition Boxet, Super Deluxe Edition Boxset and via digital download.

The Super Deluxe edition also includes "Get Yer Leeds Lungs Out!", a 13-track audio recording of the Stones March 1971 show in Leeds, shortly before they began their self-imposed UK 'exile' period in France over tax issues. A DVD includes two tracks from the band's Marquee Club show in London on March 26, 1971.

But leave it to the always-savvy KISS to see an opening in the market and take it. The Rock and Roll Hall of Famers will release a new KISS pinball machine in association with Stern Pinball that will feature artwork from Kevin O'Connor, who contributed the hand-drawn art for the KISS console originally released in 1978, Ultimate Classic Rock reports.

Faith No More are on the road in support of their first album in 18 years, Sol Invictus, which will be issued on May 18. Keyboardist Roddy Bottum says the band needed to push themselves and their fans with new material for the concert stage.

Bottum says: "We got really bored with what we were doing. We felt like there are a whole lot of people out there who look to us to be inspired by what we do artistically. So to be doing old songs on a big stage, over and over, felt kind of cheap and easy - and a little too safe a place to be.

"I love the Fellini-esque vibe of the video," says Kravitz. "When I heard the concept, I knew that Dikayl was out of his mind; and that was the attraction."

"I couldn't think of anything more surreal," adds Rimmasch. "It made me laugh. Lenny went for it. The shoot was chaotic. The day after I walked to the beach with a hangover, laid in the sand, and thought -"what have I done?"'

Kravitz returns to live action with a show at The Fonda Theatre in Los Angeles on May 15, following which he'll begin an extensive summer tour through Europe in Hamburg, Germany on June 22.

Emms - formerly of the band Misternothing - appeared on the 2013 series of BBC talent show The Voice, getting through to the live stages under the tutelage of coach Danny O'Donoghue.

Emms says: "I am stoked to be joining The Treatment. I've been a fan of the band for some time and I have the first two albums, so I already knew most of the songs.

Malmsteen is the latest high-profile musician to partner with SceneFour on abstract art in recent years. Def Leppard drummer Rick Allen has produced two collections that translate rhythm into visual art, while Black Sabbath drummer Bill Ward and Philm mainman Dave Lombardo have also launched similar projects.

Malmsteen is also recording material for his 20th record in his home studio, which he says gives him the freedom to full develop song ideas without worrying about the expense of traditional studio time.

The box set will also contain additional photographs, artwork and extensive liner notes. Van Giersbergen says: "When I started my solo career in 2007 I felt the sky was the limit. The four albums under the Agua De Annique tag mark a very important part of my career and my life in general.

Foo Fighters are onboard for both weekends of the event. Meanwhile, the Strokes will perform only the first weekend, and Florence + the Machine will play the second.

Aguilar has this to say to Groovey: "In my personal opinion, I don't think we're gonna try to top The Dream Calls For Blood. You can't recreate that moment in time.

"This next album we're writing, we've got some songs. We're four songs in - no lyrics yet. It's always gonna be heavy. The foundation of Death Angel is still there, but it's kind of hard to describe what direction we're going in until it's recorded, mixed and mastered.

Kisser says: "Sepultura have so many different versions of Sepultura in everybody's mind. Some people like the old stuff some people like the new stuff. That's what makes Sepultura so special and so great.

"We are just following in our steps and really growing as a band and keeping the Sepultura spirit alive. Working with different musicians from orchestras to percussive groups to Brazilian artists. Just building new bridges and opening new doors. It feels great after 30 years having these opportunities still flowing."

Like his previous release, Minnemann plays every instrument on the record. He'll sign the first 1000 CDs and is offering those who buy now the chance to get their hands on items including a t-shirt, autographed drumsticks and two exclusive album tracks.

He says: "Versus the previous release EEPS - which was assembled by using a lot of crazy and different pieces and textures - Celebration stays in one solid mood, with an overall more heavy rock approach and occasionally moving into dark and film music like territories and interludes."

Morrison died at 27 after a short but illustrious career. He spent a few teenage years in a house in northeast Albuquerque, close to the airforce base where his father worked.

Today, that house belongs to a woman name Thelma Lue. According to an interview she gave to KOAT. Morrison's presence is still there. Her granddaughter told her that late one night she heard an organ playing in a bedroom.

And singers Heidi Shepherd and Carla Harvey let their emotions get the better of them in the studio this time out. Shepherd tells The Roman Show: "Carla and I both got emotional so many times in this album. I remember one time I was in the vocal booth and the producer didn't know I was just bawling my eyes out, and he kept trying to get me to record more.

"And I was like, 'I can't. I need an hour.' But we write from emotion, and I think a lot of people will be able to relate to that. One thing we always say is that writing these songs, for us, is a very therapeutic, cathartic experience. I think for any songwriter that's how it is. You take negative experiences in your life and you turn them into positives through music."

The tracklist has been chosen to represent his work outside of Genesis and takes material from A Curious Feeling (1979), The Fugitive (1983), The Wicked Lady (1983), Soundtracks (1986), Bankstatement (1989), Still (1991), Strictly Inc (1995), and his orchestral albums Seven: A Suite for Orchestra (2004) and Six Pieces for Orchestra (2012).

The four-part series sees orchestra conductor Hazlewood explore the progressive rock music of the 1970s. In the opening episode, he'll focus on drums and percussion - kicking off by tracing prog's origins in the popular music of the 1950s and 1960s.
