Jump The Gun (Pretty Maids Album)
''Jump the Gun'' is the third studio album by the Danish hard rock/ heavy metal band Pretty Maids. It was released on 20 April 1990 in Europe by CBS. In the US, the title was changed to ''Lethal Heroes'' and it was released by Epic Records. The album was produced by Deep Purple's bass guitarist Roger Glover. According to CBS, it was then the most expensive album recording to date in Denmark, with a cost of around DKK 3–3.5 million. ''Jump the Gun'' was nominated for Danish Heavy Rock Album of the Year at the 1991 Danish Grammy Awards, but lost to Skagarack's ''A Slice of Heaven''. Due to the underwhelming commercial performance of ''Jump the Gun'', three members left the band by late 1990 leaving only the lead singer Ronnie Atkins and the guitarist Ken Hammer. The band has said on numerous occasions that the decision to hire Glover as the album's producer was a mistake and led to its over-produced sound. In 2014, Atkins called the album his least favourite. "Hang Tough" is ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Album
An album is a collection of audio recordings issued on compact disc (CD), vinyl, audio tape, or another medium such as digital distribution. Albums of recorded sound were developed in the early 20th century as individual 78 rpm records collected in a bound book resembling a photograph album; this format evolved after 1948 into single vinyl long-playing (LP) records played at rpm. The album was the dominant form of recorded music expression and consumption from the mid-1960s to the early 21st century, a period known as the album era. Vinyl LPs are still issued, though album sales in the 21st-century have mostly focused on CD and MP3 formats. The 8-track tape was the first tape format widely used alongside vinyl from 1965 until being phased out by 1983 and was gradually supplanted by the cassette tape during the 1970s and early 1980s; the popularity of the cassette reached its peak during the late 1980s, sharply declined during the 1990s and had largely disappeared ...

Night Of The Crime
''Night of the Crime'' is the second album by the heavy metal band Icon. It was far more polished than their self-titled debut and forayed into areas of glam only previously alluded to on their debut. It was produced and engineered by Eddie Kramer. Around 30 songs were demoed for the album, and Kramer´s version included one more finished track, "Hang Tough" (later covered by Pretty Maids). Ron Nevison mixed the album and "Hang Tough" did not make it to the final release. The album has, like the debut, been remastered and re-released several times on CD. ''Night of the Crime'' was voted third best AOR album of all time by ''Kerrang!'' magazine readers in 1988, behind multimillion-selling classic albums by Journey and Michael Bolton.http://www.rocklistmusic.co.uk/kerrang.html#AOR Albums Track list ;Side one # "Naked Eyes" ''(Bob Halligan Jr., John Aquilino)'' – 4:04 # "Missing" ''(Halligan Jr.)'' – 4:30 # "Danger Calling" ''(Halligan Jr., Dan Wexler)'' – 3:39 # "(Take Anot ...
