The Richie Sambora & Orianthi album

He is trying to launch the album while Bon Jovi album.

I think it's a pretty safe bet that Doc will try and make sure that the album is out right before the UK dates with Bad Company or right after...

Doc is just the manager - I really don't think there is a label invested to "push" getting this out at all. Labels would not go this long and change so many times. He can "use" Marola's label to press and distribute but will be Sambora's expense. Any Artwork, Video and promotion still to be done. Is it odd that not even a single has teased the market? Unless you count I got You Babe last July.....

I'm sure Doc would like that however. I remember in one of the scatterviews, Richie said he didn't want to hit the road again until there was a product (album) to promote. He was talking about the crowds they drew without any new music.......yada yada.


Edit: The article that is posted above now says December???

Richie Sambora, ex-guitar from Bon Jovi, will do gigs in SP and don't think about a return to the band: "Not now".

He prefers not talk too much about the “friend” and the divergences that resulted in his quit of the band

I was waiting for you to ask me this, to tell the truth (Laughs). We are ok, right? We follow different ways. I do my things, he do his things and everything is ok. Don’t exist a return. We construct a respectable story during all these years. But there’s a time that you feel tired about being in the same place, doing the same things. The new and the unknow are always transformers for any human.

PS.: Sorry for not translate the entire thing now. I’m at work LOL

I'd imagine that they have funded the album themselves and will start shipping it to labels now it's complete. Deals can be done fairly quickly these days, but you're right, it's a close call to get a release ready for October now. They will at least have a single ready to go for then, with a December release to follow, that make more sense to be honest...

Thanks, great report.

what a beauty

Honestly, he's looking pretty good these days.

In this shot he looks like Mickey Rourke.

Hehe, yeah, now that you said it: agreed 100%!

I don't think he's really looking better or more sober, maybe a little bit, and that performance he gave a couple of days ago was not as bad as it used to be, but not good either...
