BULLETBOYS – The Warner Albums 1988-1993 [HNE / Cherry Red 3xCD remastered + bonus] (2021)

HNE / Cherry Red Records has released BULLETBOYS ”The Warner Albums 1988-1993”, a complete collection of the Bulletboys’ Warner Records recordings fully remastered and including bonus tracks.
Ted Templeman, famed for his production work for Montrose, Doobie Brothers, but most notably Van Halen, took the band into the studio to oversee their 1988 self-titled debut (CD1), a successful slice of American hard rock / hair metal scoring the MTV hit ‘Smooth Up In Ya’ (US Hot 100 #71, US Mainstream Rock #23) and ‘For The Love Of Money’ (US Hot 100 #78, US Mainstream Rock #38).
In 1991, the band released “FreakShow” (CD2) perhaps their most consistent album, and despite most the bands of this ilk were dropped by major labels by 1993, Bulletboys manged to release their 3rd effort on Warner, titled “Za-Za” (CD3).
A comprehensive remastered collection from an underrated ’80s band which were much more than simply Van Halen clones as many critics described them. These guys are good, very good in their own right…
