Real to Reel: Reel 1 by Tesla
Real to Reel: Reel 1 is an album by Tesla, released in 2007. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 1 countdown appearance in total. The biggest is “Thank You”, on 1 list with a best position of #64.
Real to Reel, Tesla's sixth studio album, came out on Rykodisc on June 5, 2007, and it's the Sacramento hard rockers paying tribute: a set of classic rock covers cut their own way on analog tape with vintage gear, so the whole thing sounds warm, loose and a little dusty. Jeff Keith's rasp, Frank Hannon's guitar, Brian Wheat's bass and Troy Luccketta's drums are all present, with Dave Rude now in the second guitar slot after Tommy Skeoch's exit.
Best Buy shoppers got a bonus disc with a run at "War Pigs" and unplugged versions of "Shine Away", "Modern Day Cowboy" and "Paradise", and 12 more tracks from the same sessions filled out Real to Reel, Vol. 2.
