L.A. Guns . Following the success of the second album,Cocked & Loaded , this album reached gold status in the US.Drummer
Nickey "Beat" Alexander played on this album, but his replacement Steve Riley is in the album's band photo and list of band members, because he was by then an official member of L.A. Guns. A large majority of the songs were written by previous L.A. Guns vocalistPaul Black .The album features several remakes, including "Hollywood Tease" (previously done by singer
Phil Lewis 's old band Girl), and "Shoot For Thrills" (previously done by bassistKelly Nickels 's old bandSweet Pain ).Torme , which was one ofPhil Lewis 's pre-L.A. Guns bands, had previously recorded a song titled "Sex Action", but they are two different songs with the same title.Track listing
