Mike Ness: Cheating At Solitaire Vinyl 2LP

Debut solo studio album from Social Distortion frontman Mike Ness. Cheating At Solitaire was originally recorded in 1998 and featured a more roots rock n roll oriented sound than his main outfit’s output. There are guest spots from Bruce Springsteen, Brian Setzer, and members of Royal Crown Revue. Ness was able to step away from his trademark punk sound and explore his influences with this release. Sixteen tracks in all. Released by Craft Recordings on double vinyl housed in a gatefold sleeve.
