Faster Pussycat-s/t

Pretty Boy Floyd-Leather Boyz With Electric Toyz
Slade=Take Your Hands Off My Power Supply
Cinderella-Night Songs
Poison-Look What the Cat Dragged In
Motley Crue-Too Fast For Love (as a fan, I'll say that Shout was slightly overrated. 11 cuts. One cover + 2 'fillers'=8 originals, of which, maybe 5 were standouts. God Bless the Children of the Beast was sooooo much better when paired with the deleted cut 'Black Widow'. On its own, it's rather pointless. TFFL smoked Shout in every conceivable way. But, the MTV philes enjoyed it, I guess.)
Gun-Taking On the World
Tracy Chapman-s/t (just good)
Shotgun Messiah-s/t
Tesla-Great Radio Controversy
Lizzy Borden-Menace to Society

That's an OK list if you're a chick. Or just want to look like one.

Poison.


I'll probably post more commentary after I've had sufficient time to fully digest the scope of this.


Maybe not quite Lagos proportions, but possibly the closest we've seen yet.

As opposed to just living within the Clear Channel vacuum, liking whatever he hears, simply because he knows nothing else. Because he doesn't know any better. Sort of like Wags.

No, I think BCO is a man of research.

Which is what makes all this Cinderella/Poison talk that much more hilarious.

Here's a guy who has probably heard a broad range of music, from good to bad, from technical to dirty garage rock...and he has determined, after hearing all of that, that "bands" like Poison and Cinderella were the cream of the crop.

If that doesn't say everything you need to know about the guy...

I've never subscribed to Rolling Stone in my life. In 42 years on this planet I've bought maybe 5 copies of RS, the only remaining copy of which is this one.


You were saying?

Perhaps you need to understand the difference between speaking figuratively and literally.

What?! No Britney Fox?!?!



God, I hated that bunch of bands! What was the point, if anyone knows, of all the makeup, hair, and spandex? What kinda women were attacted to guys who tried to look prettier than them?

His explanation for the Starkweather killings "I guess there's just a meanness in this world" sounds as haunting today as ever. Were there a merciful God, this album would have outsold "Born in the USA" 5 to 1.
