April 27 : Billy Sheehan (TALAS vs.2) & Jeff Scott Soto
cover Peter Criss song for late singer Phil Naro on "Buffalo Rock
City II" From
:
Buffalo Rock City - KISS Tribute (facebook) Buffalo Rock City
announced that there will be a second KISS
Tribute Album "Buffalo Rock City II" coming out later this year.
On May 3 the lead off single "Love for Sale" from the album will be
released. "Love For Sale" (as some of you might know) was a Peter Criss
song written in the 1990s for his solo band
CRISS, which never
released by Peter during his CRISS era, and at the time the song was
being developed,
Phil Naro
(RIP) was in the band and lent a hand in
shaping the track.
(NOTE from KRR : In 1999 "Love For Sale" ended up
on
The Mark St. John Project EP,
which project EP features Phil Naro on lead vocals).
Phil Naro had planned on participating on "Buffalo Rock City II,"
but due to hi untimely passing on May 3, 2021 (the release date of
the single marks the 2 year anniversary of his passing), we asked
the surviving members of Billy Sheehan (TALAS vs.2) with Jeff Scott Soto to
record a song in Phil's memory, and no better of a song for a KISS
tribute album than a song that Phil helped write with the original
drummer of KISS.
Here's the teaser/ad video for the "Love for Sale" single, which you
purchase directly from Bandcamp on May 3, 2023 at
Bandcamp.com.
All proceeds go to the Maria Love Convalescent Fund, a Buffalo, NY
based charity, which provides interim financial assistance for the
people in the community with convalescent care needs. Again, this
song is dedicated to the memory and musical legacy of Phil Naro. Let
him never be forgotten!
