Interview: Guitarist Jim Peterik Talks 'Tiger' and the New Pride of Lions Album, 'Immortal'

Authored by guitarworld.com

Peterik’s latest endeavor is a reunion with vocalist Toby Hitchcock for the new Pride of Lions album, Immortal.

I spoke with Peterik and got his thoughts not only on Immortal, but also the iconic song he co-wrote 30 years ago.

They actually wanted me to make a new record a few years ago, but I wasn’t ready at the time.

I had just completed the Crossroads Moment album with Jimi Jamison, and my juices were just gone for that direction.

I got into doing Lifeforce (my smooth jazz project) just as sort of a respite from melodic rock.

Frontiers' initial plan was to have me release a record and then they were going to do a Toby [Hitchcock] album.

I asked them to do it the other way around and by that time I’d be ready. »

If that sounds high, you should be careful not to damage an iPhone X in any other way: all other out-of-warranty repairs will cost $549.

So an iPhone X can still get a $29 screen repair if it’s under warranty, and it can still get a $99 repair for anything else under AppleCare+, too. »

The team documented thousands of genes switch on and off as soon as Scott entered space, and the state continued for a short time after his return.

“Both DNA and RNA were found to express genes in order to compensate for a lifestyle in space.”. »
