There have been so few vinyl LPs produced over the last 5 years that you should never pass up the opportunity to upgrade your collection. They're each very limited in their pressings and disappear with extraordinary quickness from the vinyl market. This causes prices to skyrocket because once they are gone, they are gone forever! Don't second-guess yourself with this chance to upgrade your collection because before you know it, the opportunity will have passed forever

BAT OUT OF HELL

Overwrought and undeniable, Meat Loaf’s BAT OUT OF HELL remains both one of rock’s biggest -- and least likely -- hit albums. The byproduct of a partnership between beefy singer Marvin Lee “Meat Loaf” Aday and fellow journeyman/National Lampoon Road Show cast member Jim Steinman, BAT OUT OF HELL met 1977’s vaunted Year of Punk with a blast of neo-operatic, Wagnerian-Scaled bombast (based on Peter Pan) that was as reactionary as anything the spiked set and their supporters could possibly imagine. 13 million sales and counting.

Tracks include: BAT OUT OF HELL - YOU TOOK THE WORDS RIGHT OUT OF MY MOUTH - HEAVEN CAN WAIT - ALL REVVED UP WITH NO PLACE TO GO - TWO OUT OF THREE AIN’T BAD - PARADISE BY THE DASHBOARD LIGHT - FOR CRYING OUT LOUD - GREAT BOLEROS OF FIRE.

Meat Loaf's Bat Out Of Hell III: The Monster Is Loose

Thirteen years in the making, Meat Loaf's Bat Out Of Hell III: The Monster Is Loose is the third installment of rock's greatest epic serial. The project was the most ambitious, committed and emotional of his three-decade career, Meat Loaf said recently. "I knew I would have to shoot for the moon, or the end of the universe, if I was going to do Bat Out Of Hell III. The Bat just has a life of its own, so you can't say you're gonna top it or you're gonna beat it, you just have to try to do something special."

"Meat Loaf delivers his most impassioned vocals since the original Bat in 1977." – Entertainment Weekly

"30 years after the original Bat made Loaf a star, he returns with Bat III, a disc that recalls the original's theatrical bombast, anthemic melodies and guitar shred." – New York Post

BLIND BEFORE I STOP

Blind continues where Bad Attitude leaves off, and this is probably what Attitude would've had if it was allowed to have 11 more tracks to it, as it continues with the 80's-style euro-pop sound. It didn't do well here, but one has to wonder why it didn't once listening to it, as it was the most forgotten Meat successes. Although this album didn't get received well here, the UK showed us that they have better tastes in music than us.

The album starts up with the excellent Execution Day, and with the rock ballad that Meat gives here, it's hard to not listen to it. Excellent lyrics and a great guitar riff does it justice.

Rock N' Roll Mercenaries is EASILY the best track on this LP, and one of the better Meat duets that he as done. British rocker John Parr helps Meat out on this one, and he sounds as good as ever here. There are lyrics that tell a lot about the music industry as of late, and they tell their case perfectly, and the quote "Money is power, and power is fame," is one of the best I've heard in a long time. If for nothing else, get this LP just for this track.

As well as for the highlight track, Getting Away With Murder. This is the only single that came off of Blind, and it's a wonder why neither Murder nor Mercenaries made it onto the Very Best Of LP. Murder tells of a guy who's juggling two lovers, trying to love them both. It's also one of Meat's better vocal attempts, and the lyrics tell the story very well.

One More Kiss is taking a bit from Paradise By The Dashboard Light, being cut into three separate parts. It goes into a soft rock ballad, to a hard rock one, then back again. It's a unique sound, and good display of creativity.

Blind Before I Stop is a very good hard rock song that got overlooked. Meat's basically saying how much he wants to dance (that would be interesting to see. Meat dancing). It's cool, and easy to get down to.

Burning Down is a bad song, but you may not care, since it's one of those bad songs that you sing along with anyway, because it still has a pretty good ring to it, and the riffs are perfect.

Standing On The Outside is an EXCELLENT soft rock song, and one of my favorites. Meat is at his best when he goes soft, and this is a highlight of that respect. I don't know why this one wasn't a hit, because it needed to be. It's one of Meat's better songs of his career.

Masculine is slightly humorous by it's chorus and some of it's other lyrics, and the riffs are decent to accommodate those lyrics, but what was with that answering machine message at the beginning of this one? Made no sense to have it in there, as it didn't have a place with the rest of the song.

A Man And A Woman is a good ballad, but failed to capture what Standing On The Outside did before. Still, even when compared with that excellent track, this one stands firm.

Special Girl is the only slightly redundant song on the LP. It doesn't really succeed in making you get into the song much, and it's a disappointment, because it could've been better.

Rock And Roll Hero is one of the best closers to a Meat LP I have EVER heard yet. Although just slightly edged by Rock N Roll Mercenaries as the best song on the LP and one of the best ones in his career, Hero is easily a track that should be responsible in you getting this CD. Meat rocks hard here, and really let's you know the reason for this LP.

It's hard to really see a bad Meat LP, since his worst is EASILY better than some best efforts of some artists these days. Meat's worst albums are still great, and this one is VERY overlooked (not as much as Midnight was, but it comes close). If you need more convincing in getting this LP, two of the songs from this one (the two I said should've been on Meat's Very Best Of LP) appeared on the import greatest hits album Prime Cuts.

I recommend this LP for anyone who likes to hear just Meat being Meat. This is proof that the UK knows a lot more about good music than the US could ever know.
