MÖTLEY CRÜE are The World’s Most Notorious Rock Band.
Hailing from Los Angeles, CA, the quartet—Vince Neil (vocals), Mick Mars (guitars), Nikki Sixx (bass), and Tommy Lee (drums)— have commandeered the rock pantheon for 40 years.
40 years ago TODAY on November 10, 1981 Mötley Crüe released their debut album
Too Fast For Love.
To celebrate, today they release the 40th Anniversary Remastered Edition!
Too Fast For Love is the debut studio album from Mötley Crüe. The first edition of 900 copies was released on November 10, 1981, on the band’s original label Leathür Records. Elektra Records signed the band the following year, at which point the album was remixed and partially re-recorded. This re-release, with a different track listing and slightly different artwork has become the standard version from which all later reissues derive.
The album reached #77 on the Billboard 200 album chart in the United States, and would ultimately reach platinum status and in 2017 Rolling Stone magazine would rank the album at 22nd in the list of “The 100 Greatest Metal Albums of All Time”.
Too Fast for Love was also the earliest of seven consecutive Mötley Crüe studio albums to be certified gold or platinum in the US with the cover being a homage to The Rolling Stones’ 1971 album Sticky Fingers.
Live Wire Debuted 1982 and Peaked #24 Hot Rock and Alternative Songs via Billboard Magazine.
Over the bands 40 year career, The Crüe have accumulated worldwide album sales exceeding 100 million. With 7 platinum and multi-platinum albums, 22 Top 40 mainstream rock hits, 6 Top 20 pop singles, 3 GRAMMY nominations, 4 New York Times best-sellers and even landed a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The rest is History……………..
