Joey Tempest - Pleasure and Pain.

One from Joey's Great solo album of '95.

Welcome back mate.

Gary Powers loves these guys.

Another classic Drummer/Vocalist combo.

Only other singing drummers I can think of off the top of my head are Ted Poley, Paulina Villarreal, Micky Dolenz, Karen Carpenter, Don Henley, Ringo Starr (although saying he sang is stretching it), Roger Taylor & Phi Collins.

Of course their are drummers who left drumming to sing like Dave Grohl.

Here's another surprising one,

Keith Slack from Steelhouse Lane.

A Drummer by trade who filled in one night for an AWOL Vocalist with an older band.

Pre Steelhouse Lane of course.

Three songs from the killer "Von Groove" '92 album "Once in a Lifetime".

A great band that features a Drummer as Lead Vocalist. 

There's a few examples of that, but it's fairly uncommon.

New song 'Come To You'.

 

 

Nice.

Thanks Stefan and just for the record, I know this isn't your thread, but just wanted to let you know that even though I may not leave a comment on all of your threads, I certainly view them and greatly appreciate them as all of us do here.

Here's one helluva killer track!

 

One of the best ever.

Interesting choice. Until now, I never even knew that there was an alternate version of the song. I personally prefer the original, but each to their own.

Yeah, the original is THE version of course. 

I wasn't claiming Prayer '94 was superior, but it's still a Killer version that I reckon should be considered.

A bit of a no brainer TBH.

Loved the debut felt kinda meh about the sophomore effort.

Me too.

I don't get the RATT comparison at all. I always got a Danger Danger vibe from these guys.

This may be controversial, but If it happened, then I reckon "Prayer '94" should be included. 

Here's one more.

Sic Vikki - I Don't Want Nobody But Yours.

I remember buying this CD in '93 not knowing anything about them.

Turning it over and seeing Steve Plunkett as producer sealed the deal. 

The album is definitely one of the unsung Masterpieces of the genre.

Here are a few killer tracks by a band which I don't think has ever been mentioned on this forum:

 

 

 

You'd be wrong.

He sang this track on one of the Liberty N Justice albums.

Just out of curiosity, what do you personally consider the defining characteristics of each sub-genre. I'm trying to better understand them myself.

Having thought about it, I guess the best advice I could give is to check out the individual "Song of the Day" threads for each genre.

They're all pretty much on point.

EDIT: Sorry, just realised this is the completely wrong place to post things like this. Therefore, I deleted it.

 

Was this a cheeky little dig at me?

If so, nice one.

I watch Savannah and Hoda every morning before I leave for work and have become familiar with the incredible heroics of Caitlin Clark. She's unbelievable and the "Logo 3" is insane. 

It's a shame she couldn't top it all off with this title.

I think she'll be OK though. She's already set for life.

This one's always been special to me.

WOW. This one's really shocking.

RIP.

That's a big question.

I'm still refining them daily. As I said, it's very subjective.

I just tried to edit the post to get the song from a different uploader; it's "Heart of Steel" by Trixter.

Killer track from a Killer album that is a massive time machine for most of us here. 

I'll also throw in "Play Rough" and of course, "One In A Million".

Nice one, but I'd put that in the Melodic Hard Rock category.

Just my opinion, it's very subjective, others may disagree.

I'm not too familiar with all the different sub-genres of glam metal, but I think this song counts:

 

"Video unavailable".

What was it?
