Bat Out Of Hell
New - LP - 19075985821
Sealed, latest run of the 2019 150gm US reissue. 'Vinyl Made In France' sticker on back. "There is no other album like Bat Out of Hell, unless you want to count the sequel. This is Grand Guignol pop -- epic, gothic, operatic, and silly, and it's appealing because of all of this. Jim Steinman was a composer without peer, simply because nobody else wanted to make mini-epics like this. And there never could have been a singer more suited for his compositions than Meat Loaf, a singer partial to bombast, albeit shaded bombast. The compositions are staggeringly ridiculous, yet Meat Loaf finds the emotional core in each song, bringing true heartbreak to "Two out of Three Ain't Bad" and sly humor to "Paradise by the Dashboard Light." There's no discounting the production of Todd Rundgren, either, who gives Steinman's self-styled grandiosity a production that's staggeringly big but never overwhelming and always alluring. While the sentiments are deliberately adolescent and filled with jokes and exaggerated clichés, there's real (albeit silly) wit behind these compositions, not just in the lyrics but in the music, which is a savvy blend of oldies pastiche, show tunes, prog rock, Springsteen-esque narratives, and blistering hard rock (thereby sounding a bit like an extension of Rocky Horror Picture Show, which brought Meat Loaf to the national stage). It may be easy to dismiss this as ridiculous, but there's real style and craft here and its kitsch is intentional. It may elevate adolescent passion to operatic dimensions, and that's certainly silly, but it's hard not to marvel at the skill behind this grandly silly, irresistible album."

Bat Out Of Hell II: Back Into Hell
Used - LP - V 2710
Beautiful And Rare 1993 UK Original. Glossy, Unplayed Condition. “Although Meat Loaf Has Made Several Albums Since Bat Out Of Hell, Bat Out Of Hell II: Back Into Hell Is An Explicit Sequel To That Milestone Of '70s Pop Culture. Reprising The Formula Of The Original Nearly To The Letter, Back Into Hell Is Bombastic And Has Too Much Detail, Thanks To The Pseudo-Operatic Splendor Of Jim Steinman's Grandly Cinematic Songs. From The Arrangements To The Lengths Of The Tracks, Everything On The Album Is Overstated; Even The Album Version Of The Hit Single, "I Would Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That)," Is 12 Minutes Long. Yet That's Precisely The Point Of This Album, And Is Also Why It Works So Well. No Other Rock & Roller Besides Meat Loaf Could Pull Off The Humor And Theatricality Of Back Into Hell And Make It Seem Real. In That Sense, It's A Worthy Successor To The Original.” - Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide. more
