Format:Audio CD
For a while now I have liked some of the work of both Meat Loaf and Bonnie Tyler. One day I noticed that the songs I liked by each artist were written by the same man, Jim Steinman. I therefore searched Amazon in the hope of finding something by Jim Steinman and I luckily found this album. Jim has a good voice. It is not as strong as Meat Loaf's or as gritty as Bonnie Tyler's voice, but it is good in its own way none the less. Each song is classic Jim Steinman and I have come to prefer this album to the stuff by Bonnie Tyler and Meat Loaf. That is how good this album is!

I too had this album on vinyl when first released (and I'm slowly but surely building up a CD back-catalogue of all my old favourites)and happily was given this as a belated Christmas present from my Wish List. It's as gloriously OTT as I remember, and am having a whale of a time trying to pick out Todd Rundgren's backing vocal tracks and guitar contributions.
PS This album deserves WAY more than 5 stars - this goes up to 11, Tap fans!

I bought Bad for Good on vinyl (with the free single Rock and Roll Dreams Come Through) when it was first released. I have recently bought a copy on cd (no record player) and have fallen madly in love with it all over again. If you liked Bat out of Hell then this will surely have you euphoric. The drama of the music together with the unique lyrics and powerful voice of Jim Steinman makes this an album well worth a place in anyone's collection. I defy anyone with a love of great music to be disappointed.

Guilty pleasure
An astoundingly good album that really shouldn't be any good. Meatloaf was expected to record a follow up to Bat Out Of Hell but had apparently lost his voice after touring. Read more
