What's your favorite come-back
album from a mid-70s through the 80s era band?
The idea here is that basically every band from the mid-70s through the 80s, from Bon Jovi to Flipper, has reformed and issued new releases in the new millenium. Most of these suck. But not all. What's your favorite come-back
album from one of these bands?
I've chosen this era to encompass punk, new wave, and hair metal, plus anything else that fits in the timeframe.
Here's my vote: The Dictators' D.F.F.D.
And here's why: The Dictators had three albums back in the day. The first showed off their goofy proto-punk charm. The second showcased their pop hook chops. The third simply rocked your balls off.
D.F.F.D. is a synthesis of all three aspects of the band. It takes everything that was great about the Dictators and rams it together into one glorious album. It's goofy. It's has great hooks. And it rocks.
I'll also give an honorable mention to the Go-Go's for God Bless The Go-Go's.
