Artist The Tour Bus
Title Road Trip
Label Pulse Records
Reviewer Vinnie Apicella
Rating
The Tour Bus began life as a specialized program for WDHA, New Jersey-based Rock radio and for the last couple of years has been building momentum, logging continuous mileage in syndication and now, ultimately, on display for the rest of the world to hear by way of an in-studio close up featuring the many impressive bands and artists who've appeared since their inception.

Effectively catering to the "lost" generation of once renowned '80s Hard Rock scene, "Road Trip" captures many of your old favorites, and maybe some that you'd never thought would be heard from again. Imagine hearing the likes of Joe Lynn Turner, Mike Tramp, Stryper and Zebra all on the same bill. "Road Trip" is a microcosm of what the Tour Bus show represents and offers to listeners during their weekly five hour Saturday night segment that's effectively given fans something to look forward to as well as reminisce about.

The twelve tracks included on "Road Trip" feature currently active performers generally years removed from the limelight but never far removed from that which they do best-create some truly classic Rock and Roll. The music maintains an acoustic base considering the performances are strictly done live in studio and listeners will find many old favorites as well as some newer titles likely never heard before. Contributor information and individual band contact are listed within the credits and for more information on the show itself, a revivalist movement gone out of control, contact www.thetourbus.com.
