Tommy Heart of FAIR WARNING. I've been listening to Rainmaker a lot this summer, so at the end of summer I drew an illustration of Tommy Heart and Rainmaker. He has a musical instrument called a Rainmaker, which is made from a cactus.

Apparently the mansion where the album "GO!" was recorded was haunted.

If we are going to talk about fair warning, we need to learn about ZENO and Sky Guitar. And also about Uli John Roth, the leader of ZENO and brother of Zeno Roth. I have a few interviews with him on hand, but if you are going to talk about his music, you need to listen to more of his music.

The image shows ZENO vocalist Michael Flexig, Fair Warning guitarist Helge Engelke, and vocalist Tommy Heart, who participated in the "Sky of Avalon" album released during this period.

ZENO was the predecessor band to Fair Warning. About Zeno Roth, who was the leader of that band.

Born 30 June 1956 in Düsseldorf, Germany. He has an elder brother, former Scorpions guitarist Uli Jon Roth, and a father, renowned journalist .... This is a well-known story and is therefore omitted.

He died in February 2018.

However, his blog, written in Japanese, still exists today. The actual blogger was probably his Japanese wife, Mrs.Naoko. You can read some interesting stories that were not told in the magazine interview.
