Rock My Monkey recently conducted an interview with '80s hard rock queen
Lita Ford. The chat is now available for streaming using the audio player below.
"Wicked Wonderland", the first album in 15 years from
Lita Ford, sold around 2,600 copies in the United States in its first week of release, according to
Nielsen SoundScan. The CD landed at position No. 31 on the Top Hard Music Albums chart.
"Wicked Wonderland" was released in Europe on October 2 via
earMUSIC/
Edel. The set was issued in the U.S. on October 6 through
Lita's own
JLRG Entertainment label as a regular CD and limited-edition vinyl with different artwork.
In an "innovative" music marketing move,
Ford released a single from
"Wicked Wonderland" on
Stockroom.com, the world's leading fetish site. It is believed to be the first time a relatively high-profile music release has been launched through a web site catering to the alternative fetish lifestyle.
QUEENSRŸCHE and
Ford have teamed up for over two dozen dates beginning October 15.
Lita is hitting the stage during the
QUEENSRŸCHE set to perform three songs, including
"Close My Eyes Forever", which she is singing with
QUEENSRŸCHE frontman
Geoff Tate. For all songs,
Lita is being backed by
QUEENSRŸCHE —
Geoff Tate on vocals,
Michael Wilton and
Parker Lundgren on guitars,
Eddie Jackson on bass and
Scott Rockenfield on drums.
