RECKLESS "Hot And Ready"

[CROSSBONESXIII]

IF YOUR PERM WAS BETTER THAN THE LEAD SINGERS...GIVE A THUMBS UP...I KNOW MINE WAS...:)

[DropPodFullOfPonies]

9 people don't have their guns ready.

It may be cornball hair-metal, but it's good cornball hair-metal...from Canada, t'boot!

[200mad]

I was just watching a home reno show, Love It or List It on Women's Network, Canada. The guy had a Reckless poster in his basement and he was a drummer. Any idea if it was the guy in the video?

[TupakSade]

@200mad Yup, same guy - only 27 years later! Apparently he didn't have the poster up in his basement; he had it in storage, but the tv crew found it and put it up as part of the reveal. There was also a pic of him at 14 years old with Neil Peart backstage that the crew found, framed and put up for the reveal too!

[zougras]

where we can found the lyrics of this band?

[TupakSade]

@zougras Hey, Zougras; which lyrics do you need? Message me privately and I'll get you the ones you want.

[SabuPtolemy]

Man, this is as god awful as I remember it from 25 years ago.

I absolutely loved the first Reckless album with Jan on vocals and I loved Doug Adams with Witchkiller. What a band!

I have no idea why Steve would dumb things down this much when he could write mindblowing stuff like 'Victim of Time'. And WTF happened to his guitar tone?! His tone ruled on the first album.

Reckless II = epic fail on every level.

[lancelo96]

IS THAT COREY HAIM?

[CROSSBONESXIII]

@lancelo96 WHERE? WATCHIN THIS WOULD'VE BEEN WORTH IT FOR A COREY SIGHTING...

[PoofDuddy]

The Cornball Meter needle blew a fuse @ 2:45. If they played this one at Gazzaris back in the day they'd earn at least a dozen empty beer bottles for this offense.

[GlamorousDarkness]

They ad a video for a song called Nitty Gritty. If anyone finds it PLEASE let me know!

[TupakSade]

@GlamorousDarkness - Hey, GD: This version of Reckless had no song called "Nitty Gritty", and this was their only promotional video. You're thinking of the US band Reckless that came out after the Canadian band was already broken up.

[DexterWardBand]

Fantastic album & band!

Steve Madden kicks ass!!!!!!

[JayLeeHawk]

This album was released in CD format, I have a copy. Steve is one of the best guitar players in Canada. So if the tone was off, it wasn't his fault. I've known him since 1986. Marshall Law (which was the name of his group after he dropped the name Reckless) also released a CD. It was his first album with Jan that was never released as a CD. He toured in Europe and opened for bands like Iron Maiden, Adam Ant, etc.

[FDSbeach]

Terrible video, awesome song.

[wouldntyoulike2know]

I really like the lead singers voice. He has a great range, and sounds like if he was pushed a little more he could have really had an even more powerful voice.

[jromethebassist69]

the singer sounds close to motley crue's lead singer.

pretty good sound, really raw.

[alisimon5]

When I sing I pray my voice sounds like this guy. I just found out about this band and they rule!

[louiebones]

A couple of these dudes were in WITCHKILLER

[SidVicious10101]

Terrible guitar tone. Great singer. Great Bass player.

[agz666]

not bad:)

[FAUSTIANDAWN]

Not Bad, a little Helix sounding.

[frankmarrelli79]

It sounds good!!!! Good Old Fuc***g Rock!!

[ChillerKane]

These guys used to rock.

[MADDROCKER55]

okay, 2 songs were beggs or adams, but not this one! the rest were madden's & he isn't even given credit here! what up with that?

[TupakSade]

Sorry for the oversight!  Just edited tags and video description.

[krpalospo]

nobody have this video with better sound it's excellent video and excellent band. If someone have the video please upload ....

[MADDROCKER55]

Not Sure WHY lederman or Beggs ETC are tagged in this particular video And STEVE MADDEN OMITTED since STEVE MADDEN wrote all music & lyrics for all the Reckless albums *except for one song I believe..but it was never a hit so I dont' remember which one it was!Must be becaude he not only heralded such amazing musical genius & wicked guitar..but was so hott in his black leather jacket...and still is 30 years later!!!!

[TupakSade]

Sorry for the oversight - just edited tags and video description.

[romulomaza]

SOUND LIKE QUIET RIOT

[krpalospo]

No like Quiet Riot is like Accept

[warrior745]

If you want a band that would probably be considered a rarity listen to babylon ad they're really good.

[osdelos]

Did those dudes do "When the Hammer Falls Down?"

[warrior745]

they did when the hammer swings down. if thats what ur talking about but they also did bang go the bells which is another good one.

[electricland]

[raishe]

[SabuPtolemy]

Does anybody have the 'Victim of Time' performance from German TV of the original Reckless with Jan on vocals?! That was THE BOMB! This is totally weak and the singer sounds like a bad Mike Vescera (Obsession, Loudness) clone!

[lorianne1970]

Where the hell is Nick Brewerton? :)

[vampoxxx]

wooow

what a crap

[shalozitchhadlab]

this video is cheaper than a mcdonalds cheesburger

[ptola]

Does anyone remember about that cute blonde...? Jan Melanson was her name... Just listen to the first Reckless lp... UNDERRATED! (and it's a cryng shame!!!)

[crimsonrush]

I bought that album TWICE. There are so many songs that were AWESOME it wasn't even funny. The next album for me was so different and not as good.

[ptola]

totally agree... I own a vinyl copy of that record (and it's a canadian print) it's quite rare to find nowadays I think... they never released it as a cd if I'm not mistaken...

[vanderwolf1]

Holy Shit! My old band used to cover this tune. We are getting back together for a reunion and we were trying to get a copy of this song to go over it again. This is too cool. It was one of our favourite tunes.

[FatherJuan69]

I frickin love this song. I think I was one of the 14 people who bought the album.

[mightywibble]

ohhhh i like...i like very much

[rockinrob1]

Thank's,I'd put Steve Maddens ugly mug out of my mind but now this comes along to haunt me.Just kidding Stevie-Ahh,those were the days eh/Cats Eye Studio's vet here!If you could only do it all again.

Hey what happened "Marshall Law" Dude?

[xxvffxx]

I remembered Steve Madden had me playing drums,I played so hard (which he had me doing) and broke all the sticks then kept me playing even when the sticks were the size as the cigs :)) I think we were doing a song called "top of the world tonight" then it was off to the booze cans..(it would be sooo packed.. it was like being in a can of sardines)

too bad I never saw them when they were with JAN, anyone have a video of them playing victim of time ?

dougie V (danny V's little bro)

[CrMetalStation]

i love this shit!!

[iamsteveshoe]

gang vocals in the chorus! yesss!!!! i remember this song as being way heavier, but that was many years ago...
