Album Review: Motley Crue - Dr. Feelgood (1989)

When I first reviewed Girls, Girls, Girls I thought it would be a great album, but in the end all it had going for it were the hit singles, one or two surprise goodies and that was it.  It wasn't bad, but it wasn't crash hot either.  I was hoping that the album that came after it, the acclaimed Dr. Feelgood would be better.  Well, it certainly is.  A lot better.  There's a lot of hits here, and mostly good songs to boot.  "Dr. Feelgood", "Kickstart My Heart", "Without You", "Same Old Situation (S.O.S.)" are the ones every one knows and hopefully likes.  "Slice of My Pie" and "Time For Change" are the hidden gems, and the self-explanatory "She Goes Down" isn't bad.  You could probably find yourself getting "Rattleshake Snake" confused with the Skid Row song in your mind, thanks to the same name, but the Skid Row song is much better than this one.  All up, this is a great album, and its a no-brainer as to why the album is regarded as being their best.  A great starting point for anyone looking to check out Motley Crue.  A-
