│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Ah yes, itÆs always interesting when bands pump out one of ║ │
│║ their biggest albums with the most hits on it right before ║ │
│║ shit gets ugly. I donÆt mean ugly from a musical ║ │
│║ standpoint, but more so the fact that itÆs when the band ║ │
│║ would face the most troubles amongst themselves; the drug ║ │
│║ use was at an all-time high, their behavior was getting the ║ │
│║ best of them, and the swimming in success would ultimately ║ │
│║ lead to these issues. We all know it resulted in the ║ │
│║ removal of Vince Neil. Guns æN Roses syndrome anyone? ║ │
│║ Anyway, Dr. Feelgood was the album the finally got the glam ║ │
│║ sound perfected. The two previous werenÆt bad by any means, ║ │
│║ but a significant step down from the first two. This one ║ │
│║ almost reaches that early potential, though. ItÆs the one ║ │
│║ with all those big LA and MTV hits. The well-received ║ │
│║ ôKickstart My Heartö and the beloved ballad ôWithout Youö ║ │
│║ were brought to us on this platter. But really, the walls ║ │
│║ are held up by many other forces, and thereÆs a reason that ║ │
│║ it did as well as it did. Never mind the fact that thrash ║ │
│║ was reaching technical peaks in 1989, glam was nearing an ║ │
│║ end, and itÆs good that Motley Crue went out with a bang. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ What it boils down to, is that Dr. Feelgood has the same ║ │
│║ raw power and focus on heavy metal riffs as what made the ║ │
│║ first two records great, but it manages to fuse the poppier ║ │
│║ glam stances that followed up with this in a way that ║ │
│║ worked better than ever. The title track completely rides ║ │
│║ on dropped notes and heavy distortion with the beefier ║ │
│║ sections being in the verses and reeling in the cleaner pop ║ │
│║ related tactics into the chorus with the gang vocals. Not ║ │
│║ to mention, that thereÆs an absolute shredder of a solo ║ │
│║ present. ôSame OlÆ Situationö and ôShe Goes Downö are also ║ │
│║ others that hone in on heavy rhythms combined with strong ║ │
│║ melodies. Chord progressions in ôDonÆt Go Away Madö ║ │
│║ represent some of the bandÆs finest. And best of all, the ║ │
│║ album stays very consistent, whether the track be a metal ║ │
│║ anthem, a hard rocking pop infused track, or one of the two ║ │
│║ ballads. The production is clear, and the same attitude is ║ │
│║ withheld for the length of all eleven tracks. By the way, ║ │
│║ album closer ôTime For Changeö is the other ballad from ║ │
│║ this record, and it blows ôWithout Youö out of the water. ║ │
│║ Organs and a piano as well as strong harmonics bring this ║ │
│║ song up a few notches. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ The only issue this record has is that sometimes Vince ║ │
│║ NeilÆs vocals get a bit nasally. This had happened on ║ │
│║ earlier albums, but itÆs a bit more prevalent here, and can ║ │
│║ sometimes come off as whiny. If youÆve heard him recently, ║ │
│║ almost everything he sings sounds like that. Thankfully, it ║ │
│║ wasnÆt all bad back in the day. Others will complain that ║ │
│║ this record is too poppy, or that the songwriting is too ║ │
│║ watered down. Really though, the music itself is still ║ │
│║ crafted very well, even if it is somewhat simple, and the ║ │
│║ party like vibes and excessive sexual content just make it ║ │
│║ seem worse. What I find funny is that almost everyone who ║ │
│║ trashes on this album probably worshipÆs British Steel, ║ │
│║ another heavy metal gem that is guilty of all the exact ║ │
│║ same problems. So no happier vibes and simpler structure ║ │
│║ making their way into the tunes is going to allow this ship ║ │
│║ to sink. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ When given the right amount of attention, Dr. Feelgood is ║ │
│║ almost the ideal Motley Crue release, seeing that it rips ║ │
│║ ideas from every record that preceded it. The lyrical ║ │
│║ content and the fact that it flooded MTV leaves a bad taste ║ │
│║ in peoplesÆ mouths, but itÆs just a consistent, fun heavy ║ │
│║ metal album that has some lighter touches and would wind up ║ │
│║ marking the end of the bands wild success. ║ │
