Ten 10/10 Albums In My Collection. Glam Metal/Hard Rock

[@gregsimmons694]

Ratt out of the cellar could of had 7 singles come off of it to hit FM radio! Thanks for sharing my friend. Greetings from ashland ohio! God bless all the ratt n rollers! Jesus saves sinners!

[@mrboulder9714]

It's a perfect album from start to finish. Thanks for watching

[@frankies9465]

I love Night Songs . Ive defended that album for years. A hard rock classic

[@mrboulder9714]

@frankies9465 It's an amazing record. They never put out a bad album in my opinion. Thanks for watching

[@julesgiddings8747]

Long Cold Winter is better!

[@motleyfan7558]

Nice job.

[@mrboulder9714]

Thanks for watching

[@darrenarron1095]

Like the vid dude i would have put kix blow my fuse. Tigertailz young and crazy smashed gladsy soical intercorse 😎👍

[@mrboulder9714]

Tigertailz and Kix are both great shouts. Cheers for watching fella

[@GRockVC]

Good spotlight video there James. All excellent choices, particularly poison, cinderella, warrant and skid row.

[@mrboulder9714]

Cheers Grant. So many great albums to choose from mate

[@CliveBarnesMusic]

Three you didn't mention but are also 10s in my opinion: Spread Eagle - Spread Eagle LA Guns - LA Guns Vain - No Respect Great video, as always 👍

[@mrboulder9714]

@CliveBarnesMusic Not familiar with Spread Eagle. The other 2 you mentioned are quality. Thanks for watching and commenting fella 👍

[@CliveBarnesMusic]

@mrboulder9714 Check out that Spread Eagle debut. Right up your street. Happy New Year..

[@mrboulder9714]

@CliveBarnesMusic Will do and a happy new year to you too

[@michaelscott1658]

I will 2nd the Spread Eagle recommendation - when their debut dropped I really thought they were gonna be the next big thing in this genre but it didn't happen for several reasons IMO. One factor which may not even make sense is how GOOD the debut LP is - I think they set the bar way too high for themselves to be able to put together a follow up that could come anywhere close to what that was & YES it's that good! You definitely want to find that album & give it a listen - I'd be willing to wager it may replace one of the ten on your list. Check it out!

[@MusicGodReacts]

Absolutely 100% agree. Spread Eagle was grossly overlooked. Thunder Backstreet Symphony is another ine.

[@doyouluvit]

Out Of The Cellar is definitely a 10 of 10 for me!

[@mrboulder9714]

Agreed. It's a perfect album from start to finish. Cheers

[@PeterFilbert]

You sir, are a hero! Long live glam metal ❤🤘

[@mrboulder9714]

Thank you very much. Glad you enjoyed the video

[@BIGD-gj1vb]

This list is my childhood. ❤ I'd have to replace Lynch Mob and Warrant with Def Leppard (Hysteria) and Whitesnake (Self titled). Great list man.

[@mrboulder9714]

I'm actually spinning Def Leppard's Hysteria as I type this. Whitesnake's 1987 is a banger too. Cheers for watching and commenting fella. Much appreciated

[@vernfenton863]

Nice to hear glam metal spoken about in glowing terms.

[@mrboulder9714]

Absolutely. One of my favourite styles of Metal. Cheers

[@Shelby8371]

Great vid! But I would replace poison Cinderella and slaughter with-Queensryche operation mind crime Vain- No Respect And most definitely- Def Leppard- Pyromania. Keep up the great content

[@mrboulder9714]

Love those Leppard and Vain albums you mentioned. I need to listen to Operation Mindcrime more. Thanks for watching and commenting and thanks for the kind words. Cheers

[@bassdemon4186]

Some good choices there especially Dokken, Ratt and Cinderella. The latter being the best debut of the era and still sounds great today. A killer mix of Aerosmith and AC/DC that they never bettered in my opinion. Once Around The Ride was the first song of their opening slot at Donington '87 in the pissing rain. Seems like yesterday.🤘

[@mrboulder9714]

Glad you liked choices. Yes Cinderella's debut is such a fantastic album. Shame I wasn't old enough to attend Donnington in 1987, the line up looks great

[@jamesbedford3774]

That Lynch Mob record would definitely make my top 10. Brilliant from start to finish.

[@mrboulder9714]

Yeah it's brilliant from start to finish. Their 2nd album is excellent. Cheers

Self titled albums by Sea Hags, Bulletboys and Spread Eagle are great along with Every Dog Has its Day by Salty Dog and Young Man's Blues by Rock City Angels 😀

The Bullet boys debut is amazing. Cheers for the recommendations. Much appreciated

[@greggnelson338]

Spread Eagle and Salty dog. There's an old vid (like '93) of Come Along shot in a sweaty club. Poorly shot but crazy energy.

I played the hell out of night songs as a 16 year old kid my favorite Dokken is under lock and key but tooth and nail is incredible. Love your videos and take on the music we love!

[@Ray-yt8gu]

Twisted sister stay hungry is a brilliant record

[@mrboulder9714]

Night Songs is superb. Yeah, Under Lock And Key is brilliant, Unchain The Night is such a great opening song

[@mrboulder9714]

Agreed. You Can't Stop Rock and Roll is excellent too

[@stevesekora]

Everyone of these albums absolutely slaps, 100% agree with this list, these albums just stand the test of time. Going to listen to that Lynch Mob now, one that I have not spun in a while. Great video James! Cheers!!

[@mrboulder9714]

That Lynch Mob album is an absolute monster of an album. Cheers as always mate

[@rogerkjorvik]

Not my preferred genres but cool video. Never looked at Night Songs as glam, more pure HM, fantastic album. Do have a couple of Dokken albums as well, do like them a lot. Cheers. 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@mrboulder9714]

I,get what you're saying Roger, Cinderella we're pretty heavy for a Glam band. Dokken is a great band. Thanks for watching mate. Much appreciated

Hi Mr B, Great video as always, I enjoy a bit of glam but it's not my focus, so some good ones to check out, looking forward to the thrash and DM videos. Happy New Year, thanks for all the great content, wishing you a great 2025.

[@mrboulder9714]

Thanks for the support as always. Hope you have a great 2025 too. Cheers

[@darriana7249]

Full heartidly agree with your opinion on Night Songs. Easily tied with W.A.S.P.'s debut for my all time favorite glam metal album. Nobody's Fool is easily one of my all time favorite ballads

[@mrboulder9714]

Yeah Night Songs just bangs from start to finish. Excellent album. Cheers for watching fella 👍

[@jimmyr204]

Great video topic! So many to choose from.

[@mrboulder9714]

You're right Jimmy. So many bangers to choose from. I'm definitely gonna do a part 2 at some point. Good to hear from you fella 👍

[@This-Is-Music]

Great video. Those are glam metal classics indeed. 'Night Songs' kinda scared me away back in the day because of the over-the-top glammy image, but, yeah, it's a fantastic album. Just got into Winger myself last year. Awesome stuff.

[@mrboulder9714]

@This-Is-Music One of the most over the top Glam images but definitely a striking album cover. Winger is superb, plenty of great albums for tou to discover Kim. Thanks for swinging by as always mate. Cheers

[@seanbelcher4486]

Look forward to your thrash list. This was an awesome 10 for 10

[@mrboulder9714]

Cheers and yep, I have 10 Thrash bangers in mind. Thank you for watching

[@metalmickey]

I love Night Songs it's Doom Glam lol. A good chunk of these I agree with. You know my thoughts on Ratt and I'm not huge on that Wicked Sensation but either way great list and good to see some glam being shown. It's all extreme these days in the VC

[@mrboulder9714]

I'll be the first to admit I've neglected the Glam stuff lately. I'm definitely going to do a Part 2 to this. Haha, yeah it is a bit Glam Doom I suppose. I definitely know you're feelings on Ratt mate. Cheers as always Mike

[@James_Russell]

Great list from a genre that produced some great music for us teens in the 80' and 90's. I'd have to squeeze in Shout at the Devil in there as well. MC's first two albums were about as close to perfect as possible.

[@mrboulder9714]

Too Fast and Shout At The Devil are both essential. Cheers for watching fella 👍

[@darcysixstringsninelives3493]

I’m not the biggest Warrant fan, but the other 9 albums are essential & have been in my collection for years! You’re wise to skip that Dokken debut, a few good tracks & that’s about it! Great video, see you next week 🤘

[@mrboulder9714]

Yeah, that Dokken debut is patchy considering what came after it. Love those first 3 Warrant albums. Cheers Darcy as always mate 👍

[@rockandmetalplus5248]

Awesome list,James. You know I love my Glam metal. I keep meaning to do a top ten Glam bands/ albums list myself. I think the only one I dont like is Winger. They were never Glam metal for me. Mote hard rock/ AOR. But I dont class Bon Jovi, Whitesnake, Def Leppard as glam either. 🤘🍻

[@mrboulder9714]

It would be cool to see a Glam Metal video from you John. I definitely get what you're saying with regard to Whitesnake, that line up was definitely put together by the label/management. Cheers mate

[@YiannisChristodoulides]

I feel that no list is complete witout the debut by GnR and something/anything by LA Guns! But a great vid as always matey

Appetite For Destruction is an absolute banger from start to finish. Classic album. Cheers as always fella 👍

[@cristianosorio2517]

Hi James!!! I like when people (vc/music fans, etc.....) refers to this type of music as glam/hard rock instead of "hair metal" that's an hiddeous/stupid term (imho). I like hard rock very much, because it was the first kind of "rock" music i listened back in the day (mid 80's) helped me to discover other kinds of music like thrash, speed, power, classic rock...... To me Ratt and Dokken are my go to bands if i want to listen to that kind of music. I might add to the list Faster Pussycat maybe Bon Jovi (?). cheers and be well

[@mrboulder9714]

Ratt and Dokken are indeed amazing bands Cristian. I listened to Slippery When Wet just last night. Old School Bon Jovi is amazing. Cheers mate 👍

I'd also throw in Bangalore Choir-On Target, Wildside-Under The Influence, Hericane Alice-Tear The House Down, Heaven's Edge-ST, Steelheart-ST, and Lillian Axe-ST and yes i know these titles are the early 90s releases but Lynch Mob was also a 1990 release so thats why i throw these in there

I mean, no disrespect, but do you really like Vince Neil's vocals? I can't seem to get around it. I think that White Lion's Big Game, Q5's Steal the Light, Quiet Riot's Metal Health, and Whitesnake's 1987 is much better than most of these. Also, Def Leppard had some bangers in this period. And WASP was almost certainly better than all of these choices...

[@mrboulder9714]

Well i wouldn't be listening to Motley if I didn't like Vince's vocals. Def Leppard and WASP do have plenty of bangers that will most likely be appearing in Part 2
