IT'S A MAN'S WORLDHere's a commercial you'll want to check out. Dave's version of James Brown's "It's a Man's World" (from Meniketti's "On The Blue Side" CD) was selected for the ad campaign for NBC's new daytime chat show "Trisha." The UK's "Queen of Chat," Trisha Goddard comes to America in September. The ads, featuring Dave's version of the tune, run for 20 weeks so if you watch the NBC network, you might catch one of the spots.
LIVE ON iTUNESDue to an unfortunate technological glitch on the side of our digital distributor and iTunes, the digital version of Y&T's new "Live at the Mystic" release was held up from iTunes for six weeks. We're happy to announce that the glitch has been remedied--iTunes is now carrying all the tracks, just as many e-tailers have since the July release. Surely much to the dismay of iTunes and digital retailers the world over, that glitch marks the first time we've experienced the physical CD beating digital to the market. Ain't technology grand?
"Even if you had to wait a quarter of a century on it: The Ultimate Y&T live album is finally here!"
