Mötley Crue - Shout At The Devil

Time to present album number four out of ten of the assignments we got. "Choosing 10 vinyl albums that greatly influenced my taste". One album per day, 10 consecutive days. No explanations, no reviews, just covers. Every day I ask someone else to do the same." Throwing the ball on some nice figure at the social media Facebook.

After KISS made their entrance in one's life, did the doors opened up to try other things, dare to stretch out your hand for the more dangerous and forbidden, be a rebel. And during this time as a fleck brat many dangerous bands find its way into my room. Like MÖTLEY CRUE, W.A.S.P., VENOM, and MANOWAR among many.

I do have a great memory when I got "Shout At The Devil" with MÖTLEY CRUE, a few friends of mine usually hang out downstairs at one of my best childhood friends. Playing pool and listen to music. One day I did take the album "Shout At The Devil" with me, pretty quickly it got to be a real favorite, got many spins until we agreed to create a band and play tunes like this. We grabbed a few tennis rackets and mounted our own guitar/bass makeups, I believe that I played bass on this one. Anyway, after some time we agreed to arrange a concert for our parents, that including MÖTLEY CRUE and W.A.S.P. tunes, of course, it was played at high volume and eager youths who wanted to show off, with makeup as MÖTLEY CRUE, air guitars and lip-synced vocals we performed a concert that kind of ended after a song or two when the parents didn't agree with what was playing... haha.

"Shout At The Devil" is the second studio album by American heavy metal band MÖTLEY CRUE, released on September 26, 1983. It was the band's breakthrough album, establishing MÖTLEY CRUE as one of the top selling heavy metal acts of the 1980s.

Today's tune is the title track, enjoy!

Mötley Crüe - Wild Side

Sunday, time for a Classic tune.

"Wild Side" is a single by the American heavy metal band Mötley Crüe. It was released on their 1987 album Girls, Girls, Girls.

Nikki Sixx described "Wild Side" as more complex compared to some of the simpler songs on the album. It is one of the few Mötley Crüe songs that changes in time signature. Sixx had written the song during the most dangerous part of his heroin addiction. He mentioned this in The Heroin Diaries: A Year in the Life of a Shattered Rockstar.

The song's tempo is 118 beats per minute and the main riff uses a chord progression of A minor 7th, D sus, and D minor, on a guitar using distortion. On the Guitar Tuning, they often used Tune-Down Whole-Step from standard E-A-D-G-B-E to D-G-C-F-A-D as their own set of discretion.

The song has been a staple at live concerts and has not been left off the setlist since its release. It is usually accompanied by a tremendous amount of pyrotechnics, and is always a crowd pleaser. As the song does not have a guitar solo only some melodic lead guitar lines, a 'drum solo' is used when Tommy Lee plays in a suspended, rotating drum cage over the crowd.

Todays tune "Wild Side" taken from the fourth studio album "Girls, Girls, Girls",  released on May 15, 1987.
The video for this song was recorded on July 18, 1987 in Market Square Arena in Indianapolis, Indiana.

Michael Monroe - Trick Of The Wrist

The Finnish national treasure Michael Monroe in a sense paved the way for both Mötley Crue as Guns N 'Roses. Harvested a great success with his band Hanoi Rocks in the 80's. Now he goes solo with his new band featuring Sam Yaffa (Hanoi Rocks, Demolition 23 & New York Dolls) on bass, guitarist Steve Conte (New York Dolls), drummer Karl Rosqvist (Steel Prophet, Danzig) and the latest recruiting guitarist Dregen (Backyard Babies, Hellacopters), who replaces Ginger, frontman of British band The Wildhearts, who appeared with Monroe for the last time in Provinssirock in June. Dregen's first concert with Monroe was is June 26 at Fishing Harbour in Helsinki when Michael Monroe open for Foo Fighters.

Unlike other members of Hanoi Rocks' in the 1980s, Monroe was never a big drug user or a big drinker although in his book "All Those Wasted Years" Monroe tells about being addicted for a short while to Amphetamine in the 1980s. This appears indeed for this 49 year old chap is in an excellent shape.

With his sixth studio album "Sensory Overdrive" in their luggage did they visited Debaser Medis, Stockholm last night.

That it was a very pleasant evening can surely most people who were there testify about. Something that was difficult during this evening was to pinpoint an average age; for it was really spread out from 18 to 60:) The Swedish relics Nomands opens up and creates a fine atmosphere inside the room with his straight rock, would think that many arrived there under Nomands flag and got Monroe as a bonus.

Michael Monroe's band got a lot of attention, it photographed and conducts interviews, largely due to Dregen connect with his teenage hero. That this little Sly dog is everywhere, is a mystery to me, later in addition to merge their bags with one of his idols, he has been developing its own favorite bag of Candy, or rather pimped an existing product to attract the younger candy-eating public. Polly, manufactured by Cloetta, now comes in a new flavor - licorice, lemon and chocolate in a bag designed by Dregen. He is a really nice guy, he almost always comes up and talk about this and that, we talked for a couple of occasions, one was about the classic band "Secret Service" and their achievements back in time ...you might remember the tunes, Oh Susie! and Flash In The Night :) It is great that is going so well for him, "you're going strike while the iron is hot, someone said”.

How does Dregen fit in the band then? Oh yes, like to be cut out for the job, he lift up the band lots, even the other guitarist Steve Conte ends up in the shade when all the focus lands on Swede and Monroe are enjoying every bit of it now that he has found a irascible equal. Dregen was incredibly enthusiastic about the gig that he kicked wildly around in the air as if he was attacked by a swarm of angry bees. Romp as a small mischievous schoolboy and headbanging so sweat chafed over the audience, in other words, he gave everything.

The bottom line is that this is probably the best setup Monroe had sofar and they really delivered a great gig. Do you have the chance to see them during their tour, so do it.

Todays tune "Trick Of The Wrist" is from the latest solo album "Sensory Overdrive" and this clip is filmed on the Swedish TV 4 on Nyhetsmorgon (Sep 6, 2011) includes a Interview with Michael Monroe & Dregen.
