Re: Choose the best Under The Gun
Is Under MY Gun by Icon close enough?
From the list, chose Kiss over Motörhead.

Re: Choose the best Under The Gun
80's Boston band "Face to Face" was the first one that came to mind, so them.

Danger Danger Under the Gun is one of their many songs that should've been a huge hit. It's like Bon Jovi meets Survivor meets Lionel Richie Running with the Night meets Pat Benatar. It's a classic.

I voted for DP because of all the groups listed I like them the best. But it's not one of their better songs.

Re: Choose the best Under The Gun
Thought you'd say that but since you put UTG #2 anything was possible.
UTG is a filler/skip track imo. 3-chord Jon Lord vamp that doesn't really go anywhere. So many other great songs on that album... Nobody's Home, Mean Streak, Hungry Daze...

Re: Choose the best Under The Gun
Nobody's Home I like, but the other two don't move me. I really like the 12" single that has "Son of Alerik." Although I thought Perfect Strangers had a better/more aggressive sound and stronger songs at the top, I actually felt House of Blue Light was a little more consistent start-to-finish. Problem with that one was no great songs like Knocking, and also it had Jon Lord dipping into FM-synthesis keyboards, which changed the sound . . . and not for the better.Bono Nettencourt wrote: ↑Sun Apr 07, 2024 6:00 am Thought you'd say that but since you put UTG #2 anything was possible.

Yep. They got Yes syndrome - tried and failed to follow-up a great comeback album. Like you said, the singles were the worst 2 songs, esp Call of the Wild.

Re: Choose the best Under The Gun
I remember seeing an on-sale date at my ticket agent for a Philly Nobody's Perfect date in '88... was that tour canceled due to "lack of advertising funds"? Or had Gillan quit/been fired?
I liked Hard Lovin' Woman too.
