John Corabi Set To Release Debut Solo Album On Nov. 13th

 
 
 
 
John Corabi has announced the release date of his upcoming solo debut, simply titled "Unplugged".  It will be released on November 13, 2012 by Rat Pak Records.  His debut solo offering veers a lil' left of center being it is an acoustic album.  It features all-new versions of several tunes from his time with The Scream, Mötley Crüe, and Union.  Rounding out his debut will be five new tunes and an interview.  One of the songs, "Open Your Eyes" was demoed as far back as 2002 when John formed the short lived project 'Zen Lunatic'. 
 
While it is a ballsy move to release an acoustic album for your debut solo effort, anyone who has followed John's career shouldn't be shocked.  John has always released acoustic-based tunes with all of his previous bands.  I'm especially interested in the new recordings for "Love (I Don't Need It Anymore)", "Man In The Moon", "I Never Loved Her Anyway" after hearing how he re-worked the Corabi era Mötley Crüe classic "Hooligan's Holiday", which you can hear below, courtesy of Rat Pak Records.
