DEAD OR ALIVE - MAD, BAD AND DANGEROUS TO KNOW - Vinyl LP - Epic - 1972 -VG 2503


Dead or Alive's Mad, Bad, and Dangerous to Know is the band's third studio album, released in December 1986 in the US and February 1987 in the UK. This album continued their collaboration with the iconic production team Stock Aitken Waterman, blending dance-pop and Hi-NRG styles with the band's flamboyant energy.

Key Details:

  • Singles: The album spawned several hit singles, including:

    • "Brand New Lover": A catchy, danceable track that became a Billboard dance chart topper.

    • "Something in My House": A hauntingly energetic song with gothic undertones.

    • "Hooked on Love": A vibrant, upbeat tune.

    • "I'll Save You All My Kisses": A dramatic and theatrical piece.

    • "Son of a Gun": Released later, adding to the album's legacy.

  • Production: The album was marked by creative tensions between the band and the producers. Pete Burns, the lead vocalist, was known for his strong artistic vision, which sometimes clashed with the producers' approach. Despite these challenges, the album's polished production and infectious beats made it a standout.

  • Cover Art: The cover features an image of Pete Burns and a backdrop inspired by the Château de Raray, famously used in the 1946 film La Belle et la Bête. The phrase "Mad, Bad, and Dangerous to Know" originates from a description of Lord Byron, reflecting the band's bold and rebellious image.

  • Tracklist:

    1. Brand New Lover

    2. I'll Save You All My Kisses

    3. Son of a Gun

    4. Then There Was You

    5. Come Inside

    6. Something in My House

    7. Hooked on Love

    8. I Want You

    9. Special Star

The album's themes revolve around love, desire, and heartbreak, delivered with Dead or Alive's signature flamboyance and energy. While it didn't achieve the same commercial success as its predecessor Youthquake, it remains a cult favorite among fans.
