I have not seen anything of Jake in years I know he released an album a while ago but as he been seen? I was wondering a while ago if he plays secret shows or guests for other bands.

Yes, Stiltz' is correct. Jake lives in Las Vegas, Nevada with his lady Gigi. He's going to be in some upcoming print ads for my company, Cat's-Eye Custom Analog Effects. Jake's a great guy. And although he's kind of stayed out of the spotlight these past several years, he seems to be ready to emerge again. He's endorsing Cat's-Eye pedals and Stephens Design pickups and has a record deal with Mike Varney's Shrapnel Records. I've asked him a few times about upcoming projects and tours, but he kinda sidesteps those questions in favor of the business at hand. But don't count Jake out quite yet tho'...I'm sure Jakes got a couple of projects in the works. and even tho' "Retraced" was a collection of covers, It proves he's still got the chops! And Mike doesn't just sign anybody....His whole roster is a who's who of awesome guitar players, drummers and vocalists! Mike also lets his artists have almost near complete artistic control! That's a plus for a guy like Jake, who it seems would rather not do anything than compromise his artistic integrity.

and with that I'm guessing another solo-album is in a near distant future

Maybe a reunion with Ozzy? Collaboration with Zakk?
In my dreams.

He has already refused that one
In my dreams.

Him working with Zakk could be interesting though
Jake's blues playing versus Zakk's blues/country playing

Yep, he lives in Las Vegas, Nevada. I have his mailing address. So basically, I could find his house if he ever asks me for a ride to the airport or something.

Rebel Rocker Guitarist Jake E. Lee is quite a elusive musician but still he is very much out there in the music World: his latest album/Cd is titled Jake E. Lee-Retraced which he pays homage Tribute to the legendary Blues Rocker bands of the 70's and Jake & Co (Aynsley Dunbar, Chris Logan & Bogart) done an extraodinary anew renditions of Classic 70's songs that helped him in his earlier days. It's a awesome new Cd Jake E. Lee "Retraced" release in 2005 on the Shrapnel Record Label in which the Rebel Rocker is signed to and his doing music gear endorsements with ESP and lives in Las Vegas with his lady flame Gigi Hangach (Phantom Blue fame). Hopefully in 2007 there will be something new coming out on the fame Rebel Rocker Jake E. Lee. Peace!

I still listen to Waiting For Darkness, Centre of Eternity, Killer of Giants and Secret Loser quite a bit. There are some really cool ideas in those songs. I sure am glad he's still around...
