Re-machined is the perfect tribute to a hard rock album that turns 40 this year and it makes the perfect companion to the 40th Anniversary Immersion boxset that came out recently to boot! Although I wasn't crazy about the Flaming Lips version of Smoke on The Water, every other name band and artist turns in an exceptional and killer performance! I like both the Chickenfoot and Glenn Hughes/Steve Vai versions of Highway Star and I really can't decide which one is better. Michael Anthony's bass playing and vocal screams are jaw dropping and I like that Steve Vai paid tribute to Jon Lord by playing a harmonized, Brian May-like version of Lord's Made In Japan organ introduction. And Glenn Hughes is a vocal dynamo on the song as well as on Maybe I'm A Leo. Metallica's version of When A Blind Man Cries is a real treat while BLS sound amazing on Pictures Of Home and Zakk Wylde's vocals have never sounded better. It is a great listen from start to finish, and I have to say it again that it makes a great companion set to the 40th Anniversary Machine Head remaster set. Re-machined is a tribute album that delivers and you won't be disappointed!
