Does anyone have any news on this? Is it still in the recording process or is it a no go? Just checking because, I remember on his web site, little videos with him all excited about it, but haven't heard anything about it sense. Hopefully it will be one more true rock album. :D

Surprised no one answered this yet.

It's on hold because "The Grafting" is getting a re-boot. John felt it wasn't given a fair chance in the market, found new distributor or something, and they re-launched it.

So we have to wait before John's #4 solo work comes out.

BTW, there was another solo project in the works before "The Grafting" but was never released. So potentially we could have a 2-disc set?

Also, John mentioned on tour that there's a book project coming.

That's exciting to hear about the book. I wonder if it will be an autobiography or something different.

Right - the new CD is on hold at the moment... giving Grafting a new push first.

However, if anyone has any spare change laying around and would like to contribute to the cause, a new SONG could be done right now - dedicated totally to you, the contributor. :wink:

I'll bite.

Exactly how much spare change are we talking here?

(PS, I am in NO position to make a serious offer as I suspect we're talking more than "spare change" -- I just think it would be good to know how BIG and how MUCH these projects are, most, and I include myself, have no clue whatsoever).

A song is in the vicinity of $4000.... it all depends on how it's produced, who is playing on it, studio time, etc. But that's a rough ballpark figure for what John wants to do.

Can't say I have that kind of change laying around in my pocket either, but there ARE folks who DO. I've seen them. I've seen their wallet. I try to be really nice to them. :wink:

That's cool. Now that I've received my tax refund, I might be able to pick up a copy of THE GRAFTING.

I'll buy John's autobiography...I think it would be a fascinating read. By the way...what ever happened to calicowriter's book about Schlitt? Just wondering.
