Motley Crue is by far the best heavy metal band there has ever been! They changed the face and sound of rock and roll in the '80s! I will continue to go to their concerts as long as they can still rock! Here's to you Motley Crue! You guys are definitely my favorite band! Thanks for all the years of the awesome music!
Huge Crue fan, have been 81, but they aren't heavy metal, they're Glam Rock. Black Sabbath, Metallica, Megadeth, Iron Maiden, Judas Pirest, they're Heavy Metal.
What's wild about Nikki saying that he plays music instead of doing terrible things to people. This woman is, clueless because that is an absolutely true statement. What he said makes complete sense. Playing music kept me out of trouble.
@@stevenwhite8936 Yup you’re right. Oops! I don’t know how I screwed that one up. Just gettin old I guess! 🤷🏻♀️😂 Tabitha was a redhead & I’m pretty sure she started later in the 80 or 90s
I remember the first time I heard and seen photos of the boyz. I was 13 and in grade 7. A hot 80s chick in my class brought in the cassette. Teased hair tight jeans camel toe and all. Fn hot! She hit play and it was like I was injected with metal. Like nothing I had ever experienced before. These boys were badasses. Since then nothing has ever been such a polar change as hearing Motley for the first time. She's got the looks that kill. Yes sir Mr. Motley!
I was 12, 1982, and bought Too Fast for Love for a dollar from the clearance bin. It was the original version, not the remixed release that came slightly later. I'd never heard of Motley Crue, but going by the cover I guessed it wasn't pop! It blew me away, I loved it. The raw guitar sound was what I liked most, and it was different on every track. I still miss hearing the slightly different versions on that album, I've never been able to find them online, or on CD. I've still got the vinyl, I just haven't had a record player for 30 years, and I always taped my albums when I got home and played the tapes, so most of my albums are near mint, except that the inner sleeves usually ended up on my bedroom wall as posters. Until Smokin'in the Boys Room came out, I felt like I was the only one in Australia that had heard of Motley Crue! I saw them in 2015, it was kind of sad, very few people in the audience knew any of the songs. They supported Kiss at the V8 Supercars race, and your race tickets included the Concert at no extra cost, so it was not a select audience, just a few people that hung around to hear Kiss play "I was made for loving you" mostly, it made me ashamed to be South Australian.
I remember hearing Shout at the Devil in '83 and it was definitely edgy for the times. They were hardcore on a different level but had pop appeal to reach the masses, powerful at the time. They didn't break new ground musically but had image and attitude in spades. GNR and Metallica were leaders as well a little later. Great American 80's Rock and Roll bands. Motley Crue's contribution to music shouldn't be ignored, they had a huge impact on the 1980's.
Great documentary, thanks for sharing, I’ve only watched it a few times plus ! Lol! Sure takes me back to my teenage years . Good times , great songs ! I still love Motley Crue ❤
God I love seeing early Crue wow friggin HOT! I remember my brother showing me that Shout at the Devil album he just bought when it came out. I opened that record jacket and saw them? I went NUTS! I was 10 years old. Still love that CD and listen to it often.
I had an “auto reverse” Walkman back in the day, and one day it suddenly stopped “flipping” the tape, but instead started playing playing the tape in reverse. This was at the height of the “Satanic Rock” push, and a lot of albums really did have backwards shit. Some were obvious, but others were “iffy” at best.
I played 'Stairway to Heaven' backwards. It's a sad tale of a lady returning the stairway for a full refund but she had to settle for store credit. The store clerks echoed with laughter.
Awwww you poor thing. This was an amazing time to be growing up in. Today they show every kind of sin out in the open. I am so glad that a new generation is able to see how it was. Truly amazing. Nothing can ever compare to the 80s and the music.
Born in 1970 it was great being a kid in the 70’s and a teen in the 80’s…then in my 20’s in the 1990’s anything before 9/11 was great then everything became PC
Vince had to do public announcements like that as part of his probation deal after the wreck. He also had to speak at high schools about the danger of drugs, drinking & driving etc.
What is this?! Is this some old documentary I never heard of or did someone make this out of old footage to look old? Anything with motley is awesome! Im all in. I’m watching...
Foods important the band answers and look at Vince Neil today apparently he cared a lot about food now as in how much to enjoy. That’s really sad to see him now but I still enjoy their music and the epic movie the dirt
They looked at eachother because food is not important when you are on cocaine and just barely out of the struggling/starving artist phase. Sure Vince could be in better shape but what do you expect from years of alcohol use and lack of exercise? After such a fast life at such a young age, he can coast now knowing hes had what most wont. Who really wants to watch a 60 something man shaking on stage in shape or not?!!! Just enjoy the me.ories life goes on.
Got to see them for the first time this year, so jealous of anyone who saw them in their prime. Great show dont get me wrong but doesnt compare to some footage ive seen
It's weird , back in the day I always thought Vince was the ultimate douche but as the years have gone by and after watching a ton of videos and seeing the actions of all members of Motley he seems like the coolest most normal dude , outside of Mick of course.
I still think the vocals on the song shout at the devil is as great a rock vocal performance as I have evet heard. As Eddy changed guitar out of L.A Motley and Vince's vocal delivery had a damn gattling gun rapid fire explode in your face urgency that lay to waste the 70s bell bottomed blues hippies before them. Punk attitude Heavy metal power with elite pop song writing sensibilities.
Thank goodness that for the most part these backward bible belt days are OVER! I was born in the 50's, and this was the social norm. Everyone was supposed to follow the bell mare and have impeccable, yet impossible moral standards and believe me you were constantly watched so you didn't stray. You were supposed to be a good little soldier exactly like everyone else or face the fires of hell. It was a nightmare life. So imagine what happened with my strict moral parents, their friends, and the almighty church when I broke free, married a bass player and lived hippie life ever after! Peace!
BULLSHIT. AFTER SHOUT THEY JUST WENT DOWNHILL THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER ALBUM LIKE SHOUT. NOT 1 SONG ON IY I DIDNT KNOW BY HEART A ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE .AND THEIR SWAN SONG.
Yep they were forced to push the satanic crap.It sold back then they learned that from Ozzy..All that promoting of Satan got us where we are today..Record companies always pushed it and still do..The " artist" are persuaded to be these characters..
It's interesting they said in the interview that they don't see Ozzy as he's a busy guy, but they hang with his band. But in the book they talk about the ant snorting incident and licking his own piss. Then Ozzy says he's no recollection of it either 🤔
According to motleys head of security at the time fred saunders... ozzy actually peed in the pool and started lapping up the pool water,and didnt see ozzy snort any ants.
ELO’s WAS actually: The music is reversible but time is not. Turn back, turn back,turn back. They put several in their music to make fun of that whole backmasking thing.
When rock stars got off radio and out of the magazine and into are living rooms crue was perfect for that a group of good looking guys who care about nothing except getting laid and drunk they looked the part they lived the part and there music was a young rebelling teens life perfect for 80s suburban white culture you can feel the 80s in this band I remember I was young glam was the new popular rock music and you could feel the essence of the 80s from motley crue I remember when it was all new the 80s biggening of so much analog technology like the vcr 8 track recording digital just started with the drum machine crue you could taste the young rebelling teen youth high energy fast cars fast woman Jack was the best selling whiskey budwiser was the party dog spud mcancy Pepsi was the taste of the new generation of 80s teens and crue was the hero to all those kids who hung out in the smoking pit at school what great times I was 14 in 1990 I'm the generation right after this was over my generation killed these bands but I still have the clearest memories of the 80s teen my older brothers the only decade were there was such a thing as a preppy metal head 💙 miss those times
It comes a cross as goofy and ridiculous but what it does is get you to go just a little bit further, closer to accepting behaviors that you wouldn't have before hand. All the Rockstars are promoted as being cool and all the Christians being uptight and not fun. Where did you find yourself after 5 yrs of listening to this music? You can joke about it or make a clever statement but be honest with yourself.
Sheltered existence?! You’re a nerd?! You didn’t have a subscription to TV Guide?! Your family couldn’t afford cable?! Your parents were separated and you had a deadbeat Dad?! You’re visually impaired?! Who knows?!
Thay got so so talents LA glam rock but little did thay know that the Grunge era was coming in the near future to literally put these guys out of business by 1991 period
Like really someone is really going to sit there and play a whole album backwards just to look for some unlikely satanic messages but then along comes the CD which can't be played backwards no matter how much you try
Kept me out of trouble watching MTV and especially Headbangers Ball I was mesmerized by all this in a trance just to watch and dance dancing on glass whoo hoo
I meant *Pop Rock Band* They were pushed by the media so hard simply for their image and the things they said, not the music. From 1985-1990, they were definitely more pop rock than metal.
It's pretty cool how it was Nikki Six that founded the band when all he plays is root notes. But that's fine. I play Drums and I think that's what Bass players should do mostly that is. But that's why I really always Loved Motley Crue. The rest of the band just kind of played along with what Nikki Sixx was playing. But I originally thought that Mick Mars was the guy that founded the band.
Nikki wrote the songs and lyrics which created the template for their street wise dangerous heavy catalog that also had elite level hooks and pop sensibilities. Tommy filled the back end in with a frenetic all out assault on the drums in the vein of Bill Ward and Keith Moon. Mick is so underrated to me. In an ere where Eddie started a revolution of speed players who copied his style usually not as well. Mick was not that style. He was more a metal keith Richards. He came up with more massive catchy heavy riffs then any player of the decade of the 80's. Incredible tone and gutterall power that like Nikki one could tap their toes too. Then Vince had this machine gun explode in your face delivery on the fast stuff and a smooth as honey tenor which was juxtaposed to the raw power the band pumped out. Great band
To me Crue changed the scene in 81 with too fast for love, because they didn't sound like anyone else, same with Def Leppard with Diver Down. The band who started( or at least blew it up 1st) hair "metal" was Quite Riot..is say "metal" because it wasn't considered metal at the time. Not like Sabbath, Maiden, Metallica, Slayer, ect.. they were Metal.
Shout at the devil was heavier then most any thing at the time. So it was not hair metal when they were heaver then the bands Metalica was listening too at the time
LOL, that whole " play your album backwards for a SATANIC subliminal message" is really reaching when they played Zep's stairway backwards , HAHAHAHAHAHA!
Motley sucked after shout at the devil album!!went all MTV glam and became just another top 40 radio rock band...SATD was such an ahead of it's time metal classic album,still today....Mick Mars was motley Crue!!!
If you have to play a record backwards and then Print the words YOU think it says underneath it , is Suggestive & manipulative. If you listen to stairway to heaven backwards it doesnt say ANYTHING, but ............. since they type out the words under it about the power of satan or whatever, then you can almost sorta kinda hear how they could "think" it says something. ....In other words, it says Nothing, but when you tell people it says something, Some will believe it. - Listen to it backwards without their agenda they put in there with it trying to get you to believe it says something. It says nothing but theyre manipulating you into thinking it does say something.

When MTV actually played music video’s. I would never ever change growing up in the 80s. Mick Mars is one of the all time greats.
The 80s were the BEST years of my life. Almost anything seemed possible.

This Is great stuff AND rare. WOW.
Thanks Ralph lots of great quality footage I never seen.
Good Rockin Tonight, Damn havn't heard that in a long time lol, Us Canadian kids in the 80's totally grew up on that show.
Thank you so much for sharing! Love it.
I've got 2 weeks to get in shape to go see Vince Neil I hope he extends me the same courtesy

They also trashed people’s stuff and started fights though

Downhill after that....was never the same after the car wreck.
Not true at all. Some of their best work, and biggest hits were still ahead of them after the car crash.
BULLSHIT. AFTER SHOUT THEY JUST WENT DOWNHILL THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER ALBUM LIKE SHOUT. NOT 1 SONG ON IY I DIDNT KNOW BY HEART A ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE .AND THEIR SWAN SONG.
Thanks!!!

Maybe that interview was super early in the tour and they got closer as time went on. There are lots of pictures of them together during that era...
According to motleys head of security at the time fred saunders... ozzy actually peed in the pool and started lapping up the pool water,and didnt see ozzy snort any ants.
I think he meant they didn't see him often. That was just one incident.

This really goes to show how manufactured The Crue actually were in the 1980s. They were essentially a pop band. Super cool compilation.
they was never a fucking pop band
Motley Crue changed the world of rock and roll! They are the best heavy metal band that there ever has been! Nobody can compare!
No they were never a pop band that’s a crazy statement 😂
Kept me out of trouble watching MTV and especially Headbangers Ball I was mesmerized by all this in a trance just to watch and dance dancing on glass whoo hoo
I meant *Pop Rock Band* They were pushed by the media so hard simply for their image and the things they said, not the music. From 1985-1990, they were definitely more pop rock than metal.

But that's why I really always Loved Motley Crue. The rest of the band just kind of played along with what Nikki Sixx was playing. But I originally thought that Mick Mars was the guy that founded the band.
Without Mick, Motley wouldn't have happened. Give Nikki props, instead of an EVH wannabe, he knew Mick was the right ingredient.
Nikki was the leader, and also wrote the songs. That was his main contribution to the band.
Nikki wrote the songs and lyrics which created the template for their street wise dangerous heavy catalog that also had elite level hooks and pop sensibilities. Tommy filled the back end in with a frenetic all out assault on the drums in the vein of Bill Ward and Keith Moon. Mick is so underrated to me. In an ere where Eddie started a revolution of speed players who copied his style usually not as well. Mick was not that style. He was more a metal keith Richards. He came up with more massive catchy heavy riffs then any player of the decade of the 80's. Incredible tone and gutterall power that like Nikki one could tap their toes too. Then Vince had this machine gun explode in your face delivery on the fast stuff and a smooth as honey tenor which was juxtaposed to the raw power the band pumped out. Great band

I thought this video was about Motley Crue!?
To me Crue changed the scene in 81 with too fast for love, because they didn't sound like anyone else, same with Def Leppard with Diver Down. The band who started( or at least blew it up 1st) hair "metal" was Quite Riot..is say "metal" because it wasn't considered metal at the time. Not like Sabbath, Maiden, Metallica, Slayer, ect.. they were Metal.
I don't think Def Leppard did Diver Down
Shout at the devil was heavier then most any thing at the time. So it was not hair metal when they were heaver then the bands Metalica was listening too at the time
Can anyone else see that they look like they've been smokin rock for about 2 hours b4 this interview lol
LOL, that whole " play your album backwards for a SATANIC subliminal message" is really reaching when they played Zep's stairway backwards , HAHAHAHAHAHA!
Motley sucked after shout at the devil album!!went all MTV glam and became just another top 40 radio rock band...SATD was such an ahead of it's time metal classic album,still today....Mick Mars was motley Crue!!!
If you have to play a record backwards and then Print the words YOU think it says underneath it , is Suggestive & manipulative. If you listen to stairway to heaven backwards it doesnt say ANYTHING, but ............. since they type out the words under it about the power of satan or whatever, then you can almost sorta kinda hear how they could "think" it says something. ....In other words, it says Nothing, but when you tell people it says something, Some will believe it. - Listen to it backwards without their agenda they put in there with it trying to get you to believe it says something. It says nothing but theyre manipulating you into thinking it does say something.
