L.A. GUNS
1989 - Cocked & Loaded.
way more Helter Skelter.
August 22, 1989 - 2024: 35 years of: Cocked & Loaded.
More black-leather attitude.
Still drippin' wet from the sex action of 1988's L.A. Guns debut-LP, the badass firing squad would now use live-rounds.
The cool "Letting Go" intro opens-up the celebration, as the scene gets a rough "Slap In The Face". Pure attitude as the beloved AC/DC vibe gets updated on "Rip And Tear" and the cooler "Give A Little". More biker-rock snakes it's way with "17 Crash", the delight of "Malaria" and the boogie-groove of "Sleazy Come Easy Go".
The MTV driver of "Never Enough" made sure American-youth had their fix, while the dreamy powerballad of "The Ballad Of Jayne" made sure the Cathouse was always sold-out.
It's 1989 and West-Hollywood never sounded so good as all the brightest element of rebellion were running at peak performance. From God almighty Alice Cooper, to the Jersey-boys of SKID ROW, to the feelgood MÖTLEY crew ...hardrock's dominance was iron-clad.
RIAA-certified Gold ...no need for roses, as these wild gunners would shot again with 1991's Hollywood Vampires CD.
RIP Steve Riley (1956-2023)
