Which 80's hairband are you?

[KoichCPA]

Fastway and WASP and Faster Pussycat were the best 3 bands of the 80's.

Personally with Faster Pussycat, it pretty much starts and finishes with their debut for me, not a fan of Wake Me When Its Over. However I don't have Whipped, so maybe I'll like that one as well. Their first album though is definitely one the best "get in the mood to go out & get trashed" albums around. It pretty much defines what LA glam is all about - sleazy, trashy, dirty, raw, party rock & roll, totally uninterrupted by anything else from start to finish. Love it! That album just smells like Sunset Strip!

And who can possibly not like Fastway's Trick Or Treat soundtrack?

 

[Spiff]

Troops, please edit your post to say that Tesla are freakin' awesome. It's for your sake, really.

Thanks.

 

[TRrEiTxIxRiE DTrash]

"Hang Tough" is freakin' awesome
Most of the rest of "The Great Radio Controversy" is great
"Modern Day Cowboy" is pretty cool

Is that good enough?

 

[Spiff]

Erm, no. No singling stuff out, just say that Tesla are perhaps the best band around. There's a good lad.

 

[TRrEiTxIxRiE DTrash]

I prefer Pretty Boy Floyd actually.

 

[Shannow]

I chose RATT and they didn't even get in my top 9!

Same Here !!!.

'cept I got Bon Jovi

(then europe, whitesnake, def leppard, twisted sister, quiet riot, warrant, motley crue, and poison).

Wasn't too fussed on Poison at the time.

 

[Shannow]

I would have thought Cinderella would have made my list....they're great.

Some bastard stole my fastway tapes from the Camira....was very happy with Fastway.

As to WASP, when I was at UNSW, I had a stereo in my room, going most of the time.

A sweet innocent country girl moved in at the end of the corridor, and kept hearing the metal beat coming from my room, so she asked to borrow some music. So I loaned her some stuff, including "Live in the Raw".

A few Day's later, she's in the communal showers, singing "Harder Faster".

Whitesnake. Wish I knew what they're like. Have only heard a few songs.

 

[TRrEiTxIxRiE DTrash]

"1987" and "Slip Of The Tongue" are 2 of the best hard rock albums of the late '80s

 

[Shannow]

Vai

 

[spawn]

Winmar, you MUST buy the self titles Whitesnake album (its sometimes called 1987 but I dont recall that being on the cover)... ITS FREAKING AWESOME!

 

[TRrEiTxIxRiE DTrash]

I think in America & Australia it was called "1987" and in Europe it was called "Whitesnake". Or maybe in Europe and Australia its called "1987" and in America its called "Whitesnake". Goes under both titles anyway but I think the Australian release is "1987". It says it on the spine but not the actual cover.

Oh and Slip Of The Tongue is just as good too The guitars don't sound as heavy but the songs are just as good... especially Now You're Gone, Fool For Your Lovin', The Deeper The Love, Slip Of The Tongue, Sailing Ships, Cheap An' Nasty, etc!

 

[Winmar]

Can it be bought cheaply?

 

[spawn]

[JonBonJovi]

Can it be bought cheaply?

I'll burn you a copy and send it to you, pm your addy!

 

[TRrEiTxIxRiE DTrash]

Both albums are usually $17.99 at JB and more than easy enough to find in 2nd hand shops for $10-15.
