I agree the "Dead Ringer" album is better than "Bat Out Of Hell" imho....You won't find Meat Loaf pushing his voice to the limit like this on any other project.
I do not believe it was better than bat I...but real close...kill you if you don't come back, dead ringer with hot hot cher and this song plus...maybe it was as good I never knew this video existed. Took a lot of balls to sit on the back of that pickup
Album personnel (not the band seen in the video, but the ones on the song): Lead Vocals: Meat Loaf Female Voice ("What is it, boy?" at 3:51 and 4:04): Leslie Aday Lead Guitars: Davey Johnstone (okay, wait, so he IS in the vid) Acoustic Guitars: Joe DeAngelis Bass: Steve Buslowe (and he is too) Piano, Keyboards: Roy Bittan Synthesizers: Larry Fast Drums: Max Weinberg Percussion: Jimmy Maelen Background Vocals: Rory Dodd, Ted Neeley (and him), Allan Nicholls, Eric Troyer (and him too)
@secondeagle To reiterate: the video does not feature the band I just listed, which are the musicians that Meat's live band at the time are miming to. It just so happens that four of the musicians on the studio track are also in the live band captured on film here.
This album, song cover....... blew away "Bat out of Hell" If stupid Meatloaf fans would have given it a listen they all would have known that the "Deadringer" ruled!!!!!!! Thanx 4 posting this great video that I never saw...Hey wasn't this the original flip side of "Im gonna love her for the both of us"???

Thnx, I never knew this existed! It's a shame that the Dead Ringer album wasn't such a succes. I think it's even better than Bat out of Hell

Long before a guy named Slash inspired the world with his licks....there was Davey Johnstone, Jim Steinman & Jimmy Iovine. This is Rock n Roll.
