Customer Ratings & Reviews

heard Oblivion on line, and knew that this CD would easily be equally as good, or even supersede it . I was right, I highly recommend this to anyone who likes rock.

Excellent album more words destroy the meaning of this

These guys have the talent to display amazing musicianship within the "commercial Rock" format, so much fun to listen to the fills an unisons that naturally fall in between good lyrics and listenable composition. The easy pick for a single would have been "Fire" but really any of the 13 songs would do. Also, "Oblivion" is the right opener for any new fan wondering what the Winery Dogs are about. Glad to see Kotzen, Sheehan and Portnoy really behaving as a band and not just another "project". In closing, buy this album, you won't regreat it!

I first saw the CD on Amazon, it caught my attention because it had names from Mr. Big and Dream Theater, 2 highly successful 90's bands. I had a $5 rewards on Best Buy about to expire. then when I went to find this cd in the stores, it was sold out. That told me it might be good, so I mail ordered and not sorry I did. There are 12 songs and 7 are great 5 are really good. The drummer is solid and the bass thumps! The guitarist also sings and sounds a bit like David Coverdale of White Snake. The music is uptempo, the promo bills it as 70's music, but it is distinctly 80's with the guitar work, and 90's with the rhythm section.I like the opener Oblivion, the 3rd song Hot Streak is bluesy, some really sizzling guitar work on Empire and War Machine. My overall favorite is Spiral, a very unique yet catchy tune. I had no expectations and was pleasantly surprised, especially since I am a huge fan of 70's music like Deep Purple, Uriah Heep, Styx and Kansas and not so much a fan of 90's music. The Winery Dogs defy time, they are what 70's to 90's rock should have evolved to for 2015 and they deliver!

When the first Winery Dogs album came out, I was amazed at the songwriting and composition of the tunes. Everyone knows the technical prowess each of these guys possesses, but the tunes came together in a tight cohesive package. Fast forward two years and we now have Hot Streak, a more diverse collection of songs but a set that I would contend sees the band maturing and growing. Simply put, just like the first album, there is something here for everyone. And Kotzen's voice continues to be the cherry on top as he delivers the goods on all of these tunes. If you liked the first release don't hesitate to pick this up as this has the band progressing on a very nice trajectory.

If you liked the first cd you Really need to check this one out! It has lots of good songs on it. The opening song Oblivion is amazing, Hot Streak( the title track) rocks too. Ghost Town is another great song & if you want a little more mellow check out Spiral. There's great drums, guitar work & amazing bass on this disc. These guys are truly a SuperGroup

This is a great follow-up to the first CD from the Winery Dogs. Lots of solid, creative interplay between these virtuoso players. The songs are great, the instrumental performances are great, and Richie's vocals shine once again. The Winery Dogs are one of my favorite new bands made up of players from some of my old favorite bands!

The Winery Dogs smash it out of the park again! Fantastic second recording by these powerhouse musicians! Mike Portnoy bringin the heat on drums, Richie kotzen blazing guitars and stellar off the charts vocals, and Billy Sheehan rippin on bass makes this recording a great big YES to having in any music collection!

This is a great band of super stars. Coming from Mr. Big : Billy Sheehan, Dream Theater : Mike Portnoy, And Poison : Richie Kotzen. They Play well together and their songs are well put together. Since they are masters of their instruments. First song really kicks. Saw Them live they great.

“Hot Streak” isn’t easily digestible ear candy for the masses, this is what music is supposed to be, wonderfully crafted songs played by people who’ve spent years learning their respective instruments, melodies, hooks, amazing harmonies, catchy songs, thought provoking lyrics, songs that either make you want to have fun, cry, reminisce or escape.

First album was awesome, so I couldn't wait for a second production. This didn't disappoint! They're back full power with great music and excellent musicianship. True masters of their instruments, superb lyrics and great arrengements.

These guys continue to cement the musical relationship they have and the music shows. I still love the first album but this one is far superior give it a listen and see for yourself!

I bought this after hearing the first single "Oblivion" and it is a great album. A couple of the songs feel a little repetitive and longer than necessary, but Ritchie Kotzen sounds great, and the musical abilities of this experienced trio are incredible. Worth buying!

Great 2nd album by the Winery Dogs. If you loved their first album you will love their follow up. This album does not disappoint from the opening track it is full throttle.

I haven't heard so much musicianship in an album in quite a while. These guys deliver once again and this is definitely some of the best music that was created in 2015.

Their second album shows the musicianmanship of this power trio. Kotzen's voice is infectious and his guitar work is superb. Sheehan and Portnoy are the two best at their craft yet they show mature restraint but wow you at the same time. Another gem.

What a tight and killer album! The first half smokes, the second "side" is much more varied. Something for all fans here, this is just a great rock record!

This is a great cd lots of Great songs, the opening track is amazing. I like the entire cd, you won't be disappointed. Mike Portnoy is on fire, Billy Sheean is Amazing, and Richie kotzen brings a unique feel to many of the songs. Buy It

I own their first album as well. This is a great follow up of blues based rock from a great sounding super group. I would definitely recommend.

second or follow up albums generally are not as good as the first ones. This is not the case for the Winery Dogs (AMAZING, AMAZING AMAZING)
