Guitar Zeus - Code 19 (Feat. Zakk Wylde) 🎸

Out now on CD, vinyl, download & streaming platforms ► Video created by Rob Neilson “I can’t say why we called the song Code 19,” says Appice, who co-wrote the song with Kelly Keeling. “I asked Kelly why he started to sing the words Code 19 and he said it sang well and was like something people should fear,” With the current state of the Covid19 pandemic, those who have heard it feel it is more relevant now than ever before. Adds Appice: “There was a lot of unrest in the world when I created the recording in 1997. The death of Princess Di; the El Nino storms that created tropical cyclones around the world; the shootings of Tupac and Biggie; and the loss of Hong Kong’s independence, just to name a few. It seemed like the world was heading for a very dark time. 9/11 happened soon after. It was almost as if we were channeling Nostradamus when we wrote it.” Rhythm & Solo Guitar: Zakk Wylde Drums: Carmine Appice Bass: Tony Franklin Vocals & Guitar: Kelly Keeling Lyrics: Feels like I’m living in a movie Inside the light that feels the texture on the screen Dancing in the smoke it turns from black and white to bleed You’re almost there Better there Climb aboard the air light riders sea Right into the noon day sun you’re almost past the lead Slipped into the rolling takes you faster than the light it’s not a dream Code Nineteen Red homocide Fade to the sky Raid genocide Paid Suicide Astral mass communication All telepathy and thoughts are understood So no mistake is made from conduct of the truth the spoken word No longer heard It’s not a dream Code 19 Headed home Heavy load Pot o gold Not a soul on you Stay tuned Show Time Code Legendary drummer Carmine Appice has re-released his GUITAR ZEUS project, a compilation album featuring a who’s who list of the best and world-renowned guitarists on the planet backed by his core band featuring Tony Franklin (The Firm, Blue Murder) on bass, Kelly Keeling (., ) on vocals / keys / rhythm guitar, and Appice on drums.
