It's sad to see this.  I think there's all kind of potential for this lineup,
but to use the TL name and play the old songs is nothing but corpse-
picking.  I know John Sykes's got lots of fans in Europe, so
somebody will buy the stuff--hell, I think he's a hell of a player, but I
can't see myself buying it...
