I remember when Motley Crew first started.. there were rumors they were Kiss without makeup... (hysterical!) I tried to sneak into the Whisky in 1983 because I could hear them from the sidewalk outside.... they were rocking that place like it had never been rocked before... proud to be a Crew fan for 35 years!

Too Fast For Love is one of my favorite records. It's so raw and genuine with a nothing to lose attitude.

I love Vince's voice. I mean of course when he sings. But when he's just talking I love it too.

I agree! Mick Mars will Always be one of The Very Best Guitar Players of all Time! His unique sound and style, mixed with His Awesome Riffs he comes up with are Just Freakin Awesome... and you mix that With Vince’s Voice... and the beat of Tommy’s Drum playing, and then Nikki’s the Glue That Holds it all together! You end up with one Of the Greatest Rock Bands of all time... spanning across four Generations of Listeners... we’re all privileged to have lived During this time period 🤪👊🏻

It has nothing to do with fashion. They are hiding their age. They are hiding their wrinkles.

[@michaelm4021]

I 'came of age' in the 1980's. Throughout middle school, high school, college, Motley Crue and their music were a HUGE part of my life. They remain, to this day, one of my favorite bands. Motley Crue fans tend to feel a strong bond, a strong connection with the band, as they are reminiscent of our youth. It's always interesting when the Crue is back in the news, as is the case recently. "Too Fast For Love" remains their VERY BEST album - and one of rock's finest. It's raw, pure, passionate... In many ways, definitive of the times in which it was made...

[@carriesitar9155]

When it first came out, I couldn’t get into it. But in 1989 ish, or maybe 88, I borrowed: from a friend, and it’s in my Top 3 Hard RockAlbums of All Time. It’s so Raw, tha it’s Almost Punkish.

[@flugplatz21]

When I started dating my girl, she thought Dr. Feelgood was one of the great rock albums. I asked what else she liked from Crue, and she didn't really know much else. First I played her Girls, she thought that was great, but then I had to explain and show that Too Fast is just the shit! Same thing with Metallica, she thought the Black album was great, until I played her Master of Puppets. She thought Shake Your Money Maker was great, until I played her Southern Harmony and Amorica back to back. It's fun schooling people on great music. TFFL is one of my favorite albums in all of music, ever, and it's best when you can listen to the whole thing.

[@BM-vi5hk]

Mick Mars might not be the best guitarist, but his 1 chance in a million rise from the absolute bottom to the absolute top, despite being saddled with nearly a decade of MUSICAL FAILURE, DIVORCE, CHILD SUPPORT, CRAP JOBS, and A LIFELONG DEGENERATIVE BONE DISEASE is nothing short than amazing.

[@sdsuback]

If this album sucked, there would be no Crue. Undeniable--their best album. They may have made better economy on other recordings --but this is the one, period. Mick arguably-- probably without knowing--made history with these tracks, amazing guitar hooks and grit, that was never able to be re-captured, and that is a good thing for the purist. Tommy was heavy, NiKK was heavy and Vince's voice was unique. They killed it here. 2nd album worked, it was great. Downhill from there except with radio and commercial appeal, cashed in. Too Fast For Love, made them.

When I have a shitty song stuck in my head I just stop, then I play the most obnoxious, raw, majestic power-riff ever made. The feedback helps me solidify it in my mind, and then the guitar starts.

They are the greatest music videos ever, and Live Wire is one of the greatest Metal songs ever. P.S. Thanks Tommy... I'm a drummer because of you.

Motley Crue had faith and relied on the best music "professionals" to make them into something big. Local band hits the lotto. One of the luckiest bands to benefit from all the pioneers of the decade before that had begun to fade, perfect timing. Kudos to them for walking the line and coming out on the other end alive. They're pigs, barely competent, but they did it.

I agree it was a very underappreciated disc but I think it's a matter of personal taste of whether or not it's their best disc musically, lyrically yes, but musically it was a departure from the typical sound, it was a great record but I still prefer the Vince version of Motley, Actually, I feel that Generation Swine was even more of a underrated CD, with the exception of a couple of songs that CD was awesome, it had some of the most well written songs, such as Let Us Prey, Flush, Confessions.
