Do you love 70�s and 80�s hard rock? We have news about a new tribute album that may interest you. Here is the official press release we received from Versailles Records, the label that recently released popular tributes to Steve Vai / Joe Satriani as well as The Cult. 

For Immediate Release

NY-based Versailles Records' experiment in paying tribute to both the best of 1970s/80s' hard rock and to the victims of the September 11th, 2001 tragedy with 'American Hair Bands Vol. 1: A Tribute to the Best of 1970s/1980s Hard Rock Anthems' is turning out to be one of the freshest and exciting tributes we have been involved in to date. 

 The compilation is due in stores the first week of November, 2002, and a portion of the proceeds from sales of the album will go to support the victims of the September 11,  2001 terrorist attack.  The roster features production and mixing work from Martin Favere (Screaming Trees, Mud Honey, Presidents of the United States, Queens of the Stone Age), Michael Wagener (Motley Crue, Skid Row), and Joe Renke (Alien Crime Syndicate, Presidents of the United States), and boasts current and former members of Guns N Roses, Aerosmith, Quiet Riot, Rough Cutt, Enuff Znuff, Molly Hatchet, Blackfoot, the Charlie Daniels Band, Ministry, My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult, Love/Hate, LA Guns, and Ratt, as well as some of the country's hottest new acts, including Crash and Burn, The Fakes, Cookie (who played the Warped Tour, and have been featured in SPIN, AP, and Rolling Stone), Richard Kendrick, Corey Craven, BFE, and G-Soul, who have been featured on VH-1 and ESPN.
