Tony Harnell news

Former TNT and current Starbreaker vocalist Tony Harnell has been busy lately working on a new acoustic solo album. The title of the record is "En Memoria Carinosa," which, in Tony's own words, stands for "in loving memory of the songs from my past." The LP will include reworked versions of Harnell's hits with TNT and Westworld, other classic songs and new stuff as well. A tentative summer 2009 release via Frontiers Records is expected.

Harnell's final release as a member of TNT was the "Live in Madrid" DVD, which came out in September 2006 via MTM Music. The DVD, which was filmed on April 1st, 2006 in Madrid, Spain, was accompanied by an 82-minute audio CD plus booklet liner notes from Harnell about his work with the group as well as an additional tour documentary by Darren Paltrowitz.

Starbreaker — the band featuring Tony Harnell, Magnus Karlsson (Allen Lande, Primal Fear) and John Macaluso (Yngwie Malmsteen, TNT, Ark) —released its second album, entitled "Love's Dying Wish," in North America on November 18th through Blistering/Ryko.

Basically, another Morning Wood type album...

Is it wrong that the only music I know by Tony Harnell is from the soundtrack to Sonic Adventure?

...Ted Poley, Johnny Gioelli and Al Pitrelli are on it too.

I still remember the first time I heard the album "Knights of the new thunder" and became a fan of this mans voice.

thanks for posting the news

Yes. Very, Very Wrong.

How did they get 82 minutes of music on a regular cd?

Cheers for clearing that up. It's a damn fine song, though; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMgJhB9xOIU - or at least, there's a lot of ten year old related nostalgia in it for me.

I was listening to TNT on the way to work yesterday. I have had that album for over 20 years and I still get goose flesh when he hits the high note on the outro of Desperate Nights. Simply awesome.
