Adrian Smith and Richie Kotzen release their debut album, 'Smith/Kotzen', through BMG on Friday 26th March, which includes the album’s first single, and today's Video Of The Day, ‘Taking My Chances’. This nine track opus is a consummate collaboration between these two highly respected musicians who co-wrote all the songs and also share lead vocals and trade off on guitar and bass duties throughout the record.Exploding with powerful melodies and harmonies, the album embodies the spirited attitude of 70’s Classic Rock with a melting-pot of influences ranging from Blues, Hard Rock, traditional R&B and more, blending the pair’s backgrounds and life experiences to result in a thoroughly contemporary sound. The record also features special guest drum performances by Adrian’s fellow Iron Maiden bandmate Nicko McBrain plus Richie’s longstanding friend and touring partner Tal Bergman.
