I'M STARIN' INTO THE NIGHT
SEEN THE TIMES
OF MY LIFE WITH ME
WITH YOU,
IT WILL ALWAYS BE RIGHT
YOU'RE MY BURNIN' LIGHT
YOUR STAR
WILL SHINE TONIGHT
Carved in Stone
is the second
solo album
by
frontman
and his most recent
one to feature
entirely new material.
It was released
in 1995
on Warner Bros. Records.
It is his final release
on the label.
Background
Produced by
the Dust Brothers,
the album welded
rock and hip-hop.
"That was before Kid Rock…"
Neil observed in 2000,
"so no-one was really ready for it then,
. If it came out today
it'd probably sell fifty million copies.
The album was put on hold
while Neil was dealing
with his
daughter Skylar,
who was suffering from
nephroblastoma.
Neil included a song
on the album
in honor
of Skylar called
"Skylar's Song".
Skylar died
from her illness
on
August 15, 1995,
a month before
the album was released.
Following its
release and a tour,
Vince returned to
Mötley Crüe
in January 1997.
This is his only album
to feature bassist
Robbie Crane
and last for
drummer
Vikki Fox.
Guitarist Brent Woods
also plays on
the record.
He previously jammed with
Wildside
and was later a
touring guitarist for
Warrant.
The album charted at #139
on the Billboard 200.
"Skylar's Song"
was released as a single
and featured a music video
and
"The Crawl"
was released as
a promo single.
