This. One of the best sounding cd's maybe ever.

Poson Apples is better.

Thumbs up for HH...but barely. Doesn't sound like the Crue at all.

Thumbs up. It’s the best song on MC94, which isn’t a very high bar compared to the Crue’s bigger 80’s classics, but it’s still good enough.

Agreed! Tommy really shines on this album. I guess banging Bobbie Brown would give you a little extra pep. My question is how...how does that album sound so good? Was the engineer putting more effort than usual into it? Was he better with the studio equipment? Was it better studio equipment? What makes that album sound so good? Especially the drums. Were they just mic'd really good? What in the fuck happened in that studio to make that band sound so good?

Was the BBE Sonic Maximizer even invented yet? If so, then that is most likely the answer.

The best album that Mick, Nikki or Tommy have been involved in .

Corabi is a great singer and frontman but nothing he did post MC94 has been as good

Bob Rock was on a roll. I think it started with Dr. Feelgood and even Bon Jovi Keep the Faith. Then he kicked it up a notch for Metallica. Then up another notch for the Motley album. Then it all went to shit with St. Anger.
