Don't you mean Excitable? WTF were they thinking having that and Love and Affection on the album while leaving off Tear It Down and I Wanna Be Your Hero??

And Ring of Fire. My favorite Def Leppard song.

I liked em.

Not the flashiest of players , but that dude with the mustache does a fantastic job on ‘Broken Heros.’

His ‘Only time will tell if we stand the test of time’ lyric is my dumbest of all time. (No pun intended. ).

I agree with this.

This becomes even more weird considering what they left off the album.

Replace Social Disease with Edge of A Broken Heart and Slippery When Wet becomes even more of a masterpiece.

Good call. A totally pointless cover in the middle of a lot of fantastic tunes. There was no need for it.

Desmond produced / wrote Bat Out Of Hell III

What Steinman thought about that? He went nuts and sued Meatloaf over it. However some Steinman songs were on the album. Not sure if they even mended fences.

Desmond in his book readily admits to taking the Bonnie Tyler song and reworking it for Bon Jovi.

He wrote both tunes.

Also the guitar riff of the song Poison from Alice Cooper is a direct copy of a John Waite song called Encircled. He wrote both tunes.

I guess that’s how it works sometimes.

Enuff Z Nuff has to be the smallest band that tours constantly. I enjoy seeing them, they draw like 40 people.

Props to Chip for being so persistent.

Yeah, those two are well-off because of being in that band where Sting wrote ALL the hits. To do this at their age is ridiculous. I couldn't give two shits about anything Sting did after The Police. Summers and Copeland brought a lot to the table and those songs don't sound the same without those g...

Wildside is a fantastic album. By far the best of the available choices IMO. They were just toon late to the game.

Danger Danger should have been on the list Epic Records screwed them over by not releasing Don’t Walk Away as the third single IMO. Their fate was sealed.

I bought Loud and Clear. One of the few that did. Excellent record IMO. The label did spend money on a couple of videos with cameos of Vince Neal and Ozzy. Loud and Clear Dance All Night More Than A Million Times Everytime I Dream She Never Looked That Good For Me All good tunes but nobody bought in...

The first Danger Danger album is a masterpiece. IMO

I always wanted to meet and see Ted perform. After all this, he seems unstable. He should be appreciative anyone wants to fly him out to play!

Eddie Nash, owner of the Starwood Nightclub, which spawned many hair bands, has to be considered. Suspected in multiple murders, drug dealer, cocaine addict, etc.. John Holmes ex wife described him this way: "He [Eddie Nash] was an awful man... John told me he used to leave the bathrooms withou...

Ray Gillan it has to be.

Didn’t his actions cause his bands label to completely attempt to eradicate their catalog?

I can’t recall if that’s ever happened before.

What if Paul Stanley didn’t tell Jon Bon Jovi to contact Desmond Child? There would potentially be no hair metal genre? Underrated comment. Not really considering it was already around pre Slippery When Wet. Desmond Childs’ songs on Slippery When Wet completely changed the game. Smiling pretty boys...

Wingers’ Without the Night is one of the greatest ballads of the genre IMO. Huge mistake mot to release it as a single.

Miles Away is good as well.

I think so. An alcoholic/ drug addict that fell into Sharon’s arms - she took the reigns - and he lucked into finding players that were very talented but very ignorant and she was able to take control. Wasn’t her dad a high powered music figure? Ozzy got, or rather Sharon was able to, get him credit...

Why not bring in Sebastian and play Crue and Skid tunes? You could still bill it as Motley Crue does some Skid Row.

Read Bob Daisley’s book ‘For Facts Sake’. There’s some in there.

The guitar riff in Poison is actually from a song on John Waite’s Rovers Return called Encircled. I recall Desmond said he either wrote both songs or ripped off the riff for Poison. https://www.guitarworld.com/artists/guitarists/john-mccurry-on-writing-alice-coopers-poison And they reached an agree...

Do you also enjoy it?

Fantastic song!

Pleasure Palace is awesome too.

Really good album but they should have let David Glenn Eisley stay in the band IMO.

Only way it stops is if people stop buying tickets to see this trash. And they never will. Exactly. I saw Dokken a couple of weeks ago. They were handing out free tickets so I figured why not. I knew what I was getting. Place was half full (800 capacity). Even with Lynch on a couple of songs. I thi...

The guy from Ministry refused to sign their first album and didn’t acknowledge it. Recently, I have heard he has started signing it.

It was electronic synth - really good but then he went all hardcore. Completely different direction.

Axl & the band sounded fantastic as always! Gotta give Axl some credit. Looks and sounds better than he has in a while. Ugh, you thought mickey mouse sounded good on those Sab songs? Get Tyler to front GnR as well. I had Vince Neil expectations for him. So it wasn't a high bar. Axl 1987 ain’t w...

Sounds like Ted should have taken a nap and reevaluated before posting that shit about a baby. I'm sure it sucked but he sounds like a douche. Exactly what I thought. I am Assuming he has no kids - and if he does he is pretty ignorant to say that. Any parent can empathize with a screaming baby - es...

First album is phenomenal.

Better than anything Journey has done since Frontiers, IMO.

And it’s the best album Waite ever did, IMO.
