There is no shortage of Motley Crue hits collections out there, but this one just might be the definitive. All the essentials are on disc one, which is generously crammed with choice cuts from the Aqua Net years, before Vince Neil outgrew the spandex and Tommy Lee found his true calling in amateur porn--from the sleek glam rock of "Too Fast For Love" and strip-club anthem "Girls, Girls, Girls" to the runny mascara ballad "Without You" and comedy hocus-pocus of "Shout at the Devil." Having just barely survived the '80s, the band gets inexplicably serious on the second half of the collection, delving into such utterly forgettable noise as "Planet Boom" and "Generation Swine." But there's no reason to fret--the compilation is merely doing its job and succeeds brilliantly in tracing the rise and fall of a band whose legacy is turning out to be far greater than anyone ever imagined. -- Aidin Vaziri

Average Customer Rating: 4.0 out of 5
1) Third and Best [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Pre-Script: I would just like you guys to be aware that I do not own this album but I have listened to it and have listened to Motley Crue long enough to create what I think could be called a "Decent" or at least "Fair" review. Yes folks, another Motley Crue greatest hits compilation. Repetitive, repetitive, repetitive Motley Crue... or maybe not. This is their 3rd GH compilation released, however this is different than the former 2 in the fact that it's so much better. This is a two-disc album with 27 (awesome) tracks, just more than two hours of music and has more and better songs than the former two although many are the same. "Live Wire", "Too Fast for Love", "Helter Skelter", "Shout at the Devil", "Smoking in the Boys Room", "Girls, Girls, Girls" , "Kickstart my Heart", and "Dr. Feelgood", Wild Side" "Anarchy in the Uk", "Primal Scream", and (I've saved the best for last) "Looks that Kill" are the strong points of this album, although every track is truly excellent and deserves to be on here. Well, the songs have individually been broken down and thoroughly discussed, so there's not much else that I can saywithout being repetitive, except that any Motley Crue collector or fan deserves to and should have this wonderful compilation. PARENTS:Be aware that although this has an EXPLICIT LYRICS sticker from the lame PMRC, I honestly don't know why it's there. Motley Crue hardly ever swares and when they do all it is they say is: "Damn" and "@$$" nothing terribly severe. OVERALL: kids, adults, men, woman, teenagers, anyone who likes Motley Crue should buy this album and enjoy one of the best "Glam Metal" bands in the world play.2) Disc 2 ROCKS! [Rating: 5 out of 5]
I am not here to dog one CD and play up the other like so many other people in here. HOWEVER, if I were to, I would be singing the praises of disc 2 a lot more. Disc 2 is loaded with great rarities and remixes. "Bitter Pill," "Bittersuite" and "Generation of Swine" are but a few of the outstanding releases on disc 2. Disc 1 has all of the classic standards, but, basically they are songs we have heard over and over. Great compilation overall, especially the outstanding disc 2!3) I'll hand it to them... [Rating: 3 out of 5]
I feel odd even WRITING this review--even odder than I did when I picked up this CD set. In short, I never liked Motley Crue in their heyday. When I was in high school, cranking up the Cramps or the Flesheaters on my Walkman, a friend of mine praised the Crue, while I thought they stunk. MTV didn't help either, rotating "Home Sweet Home" endlessly (and unfortuantely all of the hair rock power ballads to follow). While my friend Frank praised _Shout at the Devil_ and denied that there had ever been a band called Brownsville Station and insisted that "Smokin' in the Boys' Room" was an original Crue, I scoffed at his inferior musical tastes.So why the hell would I even bother LOOKING at this collection? To tell you the truth, the omens came threefold--first, I got into Brides of Destruction. I saw the video for S.T.F.U. on Headbangers' Ball and loved it. When I got it, I found out that the outfit was lead by Nikki Sixx, and though it didn't make me like the album any less, I'd still grimace a bit and say to myself, "This band has a member of the Crue in it."Then, when I went to see _Evil Dead: The Musical_, "Kickstart My Heart" was played during the intermission. Listening, I realized that this was one Crue song that I didn't mind so much when Frank forced some Crue on the turntable. In fact, I kind of liked it.Last, this CD set was basically for free at a sale I came across at a CD store. Enough said--I figured that I could find at least two or three tracks that I liked.But in listening to this collection, I've come to realize that the Crue was a band that suffered for its desire for fame. They can no doubt rock - "Kickstart My Heart" remains one of my favorites, and "Live Wire" is a juicy one. But other times their songs felt very off-the-mark, sometimes starting with a good hook but falling off very quickly. "Toast of the Town" was like this, as well as "Hooligan's Holiday," and "Planet Boom" just plain fizzled out. Some songs suffer for trying to sound too pop, and they just come across as empty.I don't think this set turned me into a Crue 'fan,' nor am I sure that it was supposed to, and possibly a Cruehead may think that this collection is just blast after blast of Crue par excellence, but I did come out of it highly pleased with some select tracks, but also kind of thinking that they were a band who had the wherewithall to strike up hook after hook but forwhatever reason fell flat a lot of the time. Rather than distinguish themselves as a singular band in rock mythology, I think they ended up forging themselves as the prominent name of a name brand of rock, for though they proved themselves to be the better of the whole hair-metal pop-rock genre, they never fully came together to do solid music.But then again, they had the fame, money, booze and women, and I was just a raging gutter punk, so they may be able to say that the last laugh was theirs.4) The Greatest Hair Metal Band of all Time [Rating: 5 out of 5]
For 25 years they have been the biggest hair Metal band of all time, now here is a great complation of all their head banging tracks & power ballads from 1981- 2005 with tracks brand new on this CD, the CD features classics like "Girls, Girls, Girls", "Dr. Feelgood" "Looks that Kill" "Home Sweet Home" "Too Young to Fall in Love" & many more on 2 discs, listen to your Crue music b4 ya see em' with America's greatest Rock 'n' Roll band AEROSMITH!!!5) Thats the way! [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Red White and Crue(2005)Motley Crue was a band with a history Vince Neil,Nikki Sixx,Tommy Lee and Mick Mars deserve a great compilation.and yet the other compilations like decade of decadence(1991)and Greatest hits(1998) didnt do this band justice.Now comes a compilation that all bands should take notice of for the next compilation.Red White and Crue captures all of Motley Crue goin trough classics 80`s album like Too fast for love passing by the self titled album Motley Crue (1994)and Quaternary(1994 also) with John Corabi to finally come to New Tatoo(2000).All of Motley is covered and surprinsignly the John Corabi stuff too.3 New songs were made for this album sick love song(appearently Tommy didnt play on it),if i die tommorow(Samplw Plan wrote it)and Street fighting man(a Stones cover).and there is also an unreleased song `Black Widow`from the too fast for love era that was never released.All album singles are here Dr.Feelgood known to be the best Motley album was represented 5 times on here getting most songs for one album.The cover is enssentially a woman and its collered red and white and black.On the back there is a picture of the band.The booklet was well made with Crue members current pictures separatly and one togheter.The mini-biography of the band was good for a booklet mentionning Vince Neil was fired and more.At the end you see who wrote the songs wich songs were singles and the album the songs were on and its release date.What else hasnt been said already?Thats right nothin`fellow Crue heads.Great for a fan and a newcomer great songs great package and all highly recomended forget about the other compilations.5 stars!
