I bought this record some time ago and it still blows my mind. Wonderfull songs in REAL Steinman style. When Meat Loaf's voice was fried Steinman decided to put this record out himself and i think this was a good idea.Starts out fast with a song that never left my list of instant classics. Bad For Good is a great riff and piano driven song that all the classic rock fans should know about. The rest of the record is wonderfull as well.1. Bad For Good. 10/102. Lost Boys And Golden Girls. 10/103. Love and Death and an American Guitar. 10/104. Stark Raving Love. 10/10 (Personal favourite)5. Out Of The Frying Pan. 10/106. Surf's Up. 10/10 (Not Steinman singing)7. Dance In My Pants. 10/108. Left In The Dark. 10/109. Storm. 10/1010. Rock'n Roll Dreams Come Through. 10/10 (Not Steinman Singing)All the songs are ten rating songs because they are so well written and emotional. Steinman's voice suits these songs well and i really enjoyed this record.

Great songwriter, lousy singer. Everyone should have one talent and Jim Steinman clearly has several; but singing is not one of them.The second problem with this album is that 90% of the songs can be found scattered on Meat Loaf's various albums -- and sung and arranged much better. It's too bad -- the lyrics are fantastic but this just isn't a good CD to listen to.

This album is one of the best that my husband and I own we bought it on vinyl,cassette and cd. We took it with us when we had our first child it was our music especially rock and roll dreams come though it was our song.

Jim Steinman is perhaps the greatest unknown composer of all time.He is a musical genius.Bad for Good is brilliant and awesome music!

What makes Jim Steinman think he can sing? His songs are great, but best sung by people who actually can carry a tune like Meatloaf, Bonnie Tyler, Celine Dion, etc.

.....if you can believe that!Once again Steinman writes a bunch of really bad songs, over produces them until they are a bombastic mess, and sings them with screeches so painful he throat must be bleeding. "Rock and Roll Dreams Come Through" has got to rank among the lamest songs ever written.
