'Dr. Feelgood': MÖTLEY CRÜE's Track-By-Track Guide To 1989 Classic
May 6, 2009MÖTLEY CRÜE will perform its classic 1989 album, "Dr. Feelgood", in its entirety on Crüe Fest 2, the sophomore outing of the band's summer festival tour, to celebrate the record's 20th anniversary.
When Vince Neil and Nikki Sixx recently took RollingStone.com track by track through the disc, they had forgotten obscure gems like "She Goes Down" and "Slice Of Your Pie". "The next time I do an interview I promise to listen to my own music," said Sixx. "When you talked to Vince, he probably had no idea too. I'll probably listen to it on the way into rehearsals next month. We're going to brush off the cobwebs then."
For more of Neil and Sixx's hazy memories of writing and recording "Dr. Feelgood", go to RollingStone.com.
Originally released on September 1, 1989, "Dr. Feelgood" reached #1 on the Billboard chart and went on to sell more than 7 million copies worldwide, producing 5 Billboard Hot 100 hits. The title track reached #7 on the Hot 100 and earned the band its first two Grammy nominations ("Best Hard Rock Performance" for "Dr Feelgood" in 1989 and "Kickstart My Heart" in 1990).
Commented Sixx, "On this summer's Crüe Fest we really wanted to give the fans something they've never seen before. And since its the 20th anniversary of the release of 'Dr. Feelgood', we figured what better way to celebrate than to play it live TOP TO BOTTOM every night."
Crüe Fest 2 will kick off Sunday, July 19 at Susquehanna Bank Center in Camden, NJ.
