A moore bluesy album this, but it still has geat songs, perhaps not as many as Open up.., but 'Ride The Wind' is fantastic though. I personally first didnt like the blues sound all that much, but the more you listen to the album, the stronger it gets. A good album, but fare from a classic.

Feel good songs made all the more fun by Poison's feel good attitude. This era was about fun and not critical acclaim. You can bet I was having fun on a weekend night listening to this CD and I still have good memories that come back to me when I listen to it.

Judging from this album Poison's got a hotter sound and a more mature outlook on life than they have ever had befor. These guys are the definition of Multi-Platinum Rockers!!! They've toured the world to sell out crouds, yet behind all the apparent glamor and glitz these guys were more down to earth than anyone could imagine. If you call youself a Sleaze Glam collecter, than every Poison album should be in that collection!!! This music can be listend to any time and any where!!! 10 out of 10

the last classic release from these La glammers and this is, in my opnion, their best ever. its gone down a true cult album and Unskinny bop as a true rock classics. Not one bad song on it but I never fell for something to believe in. Just a standard ballad. a total asskicker this one and hope HOLLYWEIRD sounds this well too

From: James |

I agree with Kim. Unskinny Bop is one of the most overated 'hits' ever. I have to say it is one of my least favorite songs by the band and i always skip it when playing the cd. The rest of the album is top-notch and worth every penny you pay for it.

From: dokken6008 |

Oh, come on!! 'Unskinny Bop' was Poison's 'Cherry Pie', their 'Lovin' You's A Dirty Job'. It was their 'Pour Some Sugar On Me'. It's a good song. 'Flesh & Blood' is none other than Poison's best--it was their peak. They really needed to get pushed by their producer and Fairbarn (God rest his soul) did just that. I love almost every song on the entire disc minus 'Poor Boy Blues'. If you forget about that tune 'Life Loves A Tragedy' makes the perfect album closer. 10/10

Dokken6008, are you telling me that Bruce Fairbairn is DEAD!? I didn't know that. Do you know why? Also, this album was to 'commercial' for me. If I had to pick some good songs off this one they would be 'Let It Play', 'Ride The Wind' and 'Don't Give Up An Inch'. Over all I think Poison went down hill with each album.

But if like six or so different dudes from various sites were bullshitting me, may they rot in hell!!! On that note, I would definitely be happy to find out that Bruce is alive. I guess I just don't know right now after what R.R. just said. Also I give you credit for being the first to spell Bruce's last name correctly--I always forget. Later.

Kim, what I mean is that 'Unskinny Bop' was the band's peak--commercially, DEFINITELY. Opinions on what is actually their best is opinional. But I'm telling you, 'Unskinny Bop' was something along the lines of Poison's 'Pour Some Sugar On Me'--it brought them a great deal of success. 'Nothin' But A Good Time' was more like Poison's breakthrough success of making a kick-ass memorable tune. 'NBAGT' was kind of like their 'Photograph'--great stuff.
|
From: James |
Date: June 30, 2002 at 9:28 |
in terms of comercial success the sales and radio plays will show that 'Every Rose' is their peak comercially. 'Unskinny Bop' was a gimmick song. It is a rock equivalent of 'Achy Breaky Heart', just a gimmick song that got way more attention than it ever diserved. I am a huge poison fan but most of the HOLLYWIERD album is better than 'unskinny bop'.

Well, I don't want to get any arguements with you, James. It's nice to see that at least a few people thought 'Hollyweird' was very good. Personally I was quite disappointed, as the anticipation I had built up from the five 'PTTP' tracks was huge. I'm just hoping that next time they will have spent more time on the production and songs. I'm just hoping their will BE a next time.

Like many have said already, this is indeed Poison's best album. It was the peak of their prime...and it was when Bret looked the best too ;o) By the way - I like Unskinny Bop. It's a fun song...that's what Poison is all about, fun songs.

TO BE SURE THIS IS THEIR BEST ALBUM. A super product of melody-top days. I love the clean sound and tune of guitars and drums here. So I think firstly the studio kicks ass! Songs as the sleazy 'Unskinny Bob', and the orderly melodic 'Ride The Wind' make it so enjoyable to listen this record. The only thing I didn't like here is the ballad 'Something To Believe In'. Sorry, but the former Poison ballads were better.

Poison at their peak! Track for track, the songwriting is more consistant than their first two. Unfortunately, things went downhill for the band after this release.

Bullcrap! The four bonus tracks on 'Swallow This Live' were an EXCELLENT continuation from 'Flesh & Blood'. If you meant 'F&B' was Poison's last greatest original LP, perhaps your statement would hold some validity.

Chill out! What I meant about things going downhill was weaker album sales, concert attendance(some of the shows on the NATIVE TONGUE tour were cancelled due to poor ticket sales), and CC leaving the band. Poison seemed to have hit their stride with FLESH & BLOOD, but they couldn't follow it up successfully. The new songs on LIVE were fine, but that couldn't stop the downward spiral.

Here the ultimate party bunch started playing with more balls and it worked out just fine for them...You have the instant classics such as 'Unskinny Bop' but also the 'deeper' songs...Nice blend of typical Hardrock and Partyrock...For me 'Ride the Wind' will always be THE stand-out track....Too bad these guys fell off the ol' rocking horse during the 90s...Has anyone seen Cornelius Cecil Deville today??? Couldn't believe my eyes. He's a freakin' medical wonder! Oughta be dead the way he looks...

Oh, come on -- that insipid Unskinny Bop might rate as a masterpiece if you're about 15 years old mentally, but any adult seriously lauding that steaming turdpile as anything more than a childish gimmick should have a Catscan pronto... These guys always sounded to me like they were more interested in acquiring more eye shadow than actually contributing anything worthwhile to music... Cheezy glam -- nothing more... C.C. DeVille could be THE worst guitar player of all time; check that -- he is...

This album is very bluesy unlike the previous two which is all about hard rock.But this album contains lots of quality,especially life goes on which is a ballad with pure rock genius like when the children cry,carrie,home sweet home,nobody's fool,alone again and here i go again.This album may have blues element but Great band like cinderella and whitesnake's music also is quite bluesy. It really doesn't matter cause all three of them bands are some of the best hard rock'metal band in the 80's.

This album is sometimes a little too polished. The rockers don't rock as much as the past ones, but the ballads are very good. The weird thing about this album is that some of the filler this time ('Life Loves A Tragedy' and 'Let It PLay') are stronger than the hits ('Ride The Wind'). 7/10

I HAVE been laughing at Poison since day one. Unfortunately the joke has now worn as thin as Brett's real hairline!! How is the buying public suppossed to laugh along with the band when the band themselves portray a serious image. Reading and listening to interviews they seriously believe they are talented and contribute when really they are nothing more than fashion dummies caring far more about their looks than the music. They deserve all the shit that's thrown at them

Careful not to upset CC's mom (known in some circles as Leebo), Rockhead... She really takes offense, dropping f-bombs left, right, and centre, whenever Lil' Precious is slagged by people possessing an opinion different from hers... I did that once, and his mommy was all over me with her Pee Wee Herman argument tactic of 'Is not' whenever I'd state that CC is a piss poor guitarist... If we took Leebo's comments seriously, we'd understand that CC is so great we dare not compare him to anyone...

Nice 180, Leebo... And if it doesn't matter to you that DeVille is considerably lacking in the talent department, then it really DOES matter; it shows you can overlook mediocrity as if that shortcoming denotes some kind of bizarre genius... But I guess when that mediocrity mirrors your own lack of talent and wit, then CC could be the only choice as your hero... Apparently, talentless bums look up to talentless bums -- it's all so crystal clear now... Cheerio, pip pip, and all that, eh, wot?

So it's a bad thing to be technically proficient? To toss my hat in the ring, I always liked Poison (one of many character flaws I suppose), but I've never mistaken CC for a guitar hero. Not that there's anything wrong with that, it is what it is. But I also like Dream Theater, Yngwie, Stratovarius, etc. (although I can't stand Vai for some reason...). Does that make me a 'fucking muso geek' for liking my 'widdly heroes'? If it does I guess I should change my business cards ASAP...

'rockhead' hates poison anyway (see above) so his opinions may be a bit bias? grow up boys, find something else to do with your time rather than posting on the board of a band you don'y like ..it's getting a bit tired. and what's ? I'm guessing you're ... 12?

You've been exposed as a walking contradiction, Leebo... If you want to continue this game of getting the last word in, take it to the message board, where I can further make you look like a damn fool without cluttering up an area reserved for comments specifically about Poser... I'll not comment in here in response to you again, but I'm betting you certainly will... And was a surreptitious wink to Rockhead, denoting, 'Can you believe this goof won't give it up?'... Cheerio, mate...

My comment was based purely on your u-turns and inconsistency in postings Lesbo. Nothing to do with this album really. And by the way this Poison thread helps my anger management. Due to the inane ramblings of Poison die-hards I find I can have a bit of a LAUGH-SO TIME IS NOT REALLY WASTED..

i tend to really enjoy this album, i don't hear much blues in it until the last track #14. i think this is Poison's STRONGEST album, this album seems like it has very strong upbeat songs and deserves a listen. it seems like when you hear Poison's Look What The Cat Dragged In, it sounds raw and edgy, then u pop in Open Up And Say Ahh.....it sounds more harder, heavier then their debut, then u hear Flesh And Blood, and the songs sound stronger and more enjoyable, more upbeat, more bass.. IT ROCKS!

This was actually the first album I ever heard that truly blew me away (Yes, I got into the scene a little late) and to this day I still love the CD! 'Ride the wind' was always a fave and led to the more melodic leanings I found, 'Valley of lost souls' and 'Life loves a tragedy' are great slabs of commercial hard rock. 'Come hell or highwater' is awesome, and overall it's just a great solid commercial hard rock release. Hard to choose a fave between this and the debut - very different CDs

Excellent album....in my top ten favourites easily. Has a more mature/thicker sound which is less pop and more hard rock. The songs are great aswell of course. This is easily poisons best album.

Great Glam/Hard Rock/Blues album, tambien mi album favorito de ellos dejando de lado los escandalos de 1 de las 2 bandas mas famosas de esta movida que recuerdos de adolescencia cuando aca ni existian los CDs era puro Casette aun los tengo algo estropeado pero alli estan, aca fusionan su onda glam con hard rock y blues lo cual los hace mas maduros y con mas gusto y clase, mi tema favorito siempre sera en este 'Come Hell Or High Water' ese comienzo de esta placa siempre estara en mi mente...

Hey Blue Charvel, you've got good taste my friend. Yngwie and Strato are two of my faves too. I only have one Dream Theatre album - 'Awake' and I'm not really into it. I'll have to pull it out one of these days. If you haven't already, check out Kuni (Looking for Action). You should like that. He's a guitar wiz and has some cool songs in the hard rock/glam/traditional/power metal genre. To teh others: CC Deville is not a guitar mastermind but he is good at playing glam/hard rock.

First let me tell ya that i LOVE this band. This record is one of the best records,released that year(90). My fav. is 'unskinny bop'(superb rhythm).The ballad 'something to believe in'is great song.'ride the wind'kicks(you know what)D. Another 2 that i like very much:'flesh&blood,sacrifice' and 'come hell or high water'. Great stuff from beginning till the end.

In this release Poison quits the party anthems and gets serious, making a more mature album. Killer tracks like 'Valley Of Lost Souls', 'Ride The Wind', '(Flesh & Blood) Sacrifice' & 'Come Hell Or High Water' makes, for me, the best Poison album.

i don't think this is poisons best album that was the first to me but this is the best musically and it's stripped down and more bluesy and mature kind of like cinderella when they made night songs and then long cold winter but this is a very enjoyable album unskiny bop was amusing that's all but the rest like valley of lost souls,let it play,life goes on,ride the wind,don't give up an inch and something to beleive in are all good songs this is their last good album before they would venture into the valley of lost sales!

Very awesome release from Poison here. Every song is a winner throughout, with Ride The Wind, Don't Give Up An Inch and Poor Boy Blues being my favorites. I don't like this as much as Open Up, but it's great anyways.

Third release and the band was already in a stardom situation ..."Ride The Wind" is in my humble opinion the best cut in here...tracks 3,5,6,7(nice),8,11(nice) & 13 are good songs as well...so in general lines and not adding anything else that has been said,this Record is a lot of fun .88/100

I'm with Rick: Flesh And Blood contains Poison's best song, in the form of "Ride The Wind." And that's coming from an avowed non-fan of the band--partly because I think Bret's a fucking doofus, and partly because I just don't like most of their tunes that much. But you know: broken clocks and blind squirrels. That said, this disc, while trying to be taken a bit more seriously, also contains the band's hands-down worst song (of their peak years anyway): the godawful, embarrassing "Unskinny Bop."

Of Poison's first three albums, this is my least favourite - there's just too much filler with Strange Days Of Uncle Jack, Something To Believe In (one of the dullest ballads I've heard; almost as bad as Britny Fox's Save the Weak and Slaughter's Fly to the Angels), Don't Give Up An Inch and Swampjuice (Soul-O) being the worst offenders. Of the rest, there are few "stand-out" tracks: Sacrifice, Let It Play, Life Goes On (decent enough ballad), Come Hell Or High Water and Ride The Wind (decent but far from their best). Unskinny Bop is dreadful, yes, but I don't find it skippable at all as it has some decent guitars in it. Poison were one of the first glam bands I ever listened to regularly but they're far from the best - especially on this album.

How can a song be both dreadful and also not skippable at all?

Dreadful lyrically but the guitars make it unskippable.

I think the whole damn thing's pretty dreadful personally, but to each his own. There's no denying the song was one of THE big hits of the summer of 1990. Isn't it funny how summer hits seem to stick in the mind mor ebthan songs that ere popular in any other season? 1990: "Epic," "Cradle Of Love," "Unsinny Bop," "The Other Side," and "Blaze Of Glory." I could do the same for basically any summer from 1988 to 2002.

I am, and always will be, a massive Poison fan, and while my favourite songs are probably on Open up and say ahh, I think of the first three albums this is by far the best from start to finish. The first two albums had more weaker tracks for me. Songs like Unskinny bop, I take for what they are, classic cock rock with ridiculous lyrics, and I enjoy it immensely. Over all though, and as much of a fan of DeVille that I am, I will always say that Crack a smile was for me the out and out best album they ever did. What I really like though with all of Poisons albums is they all sound different without actually sounding like a different band.

Flesh & Blood is the third studio album by American glam metal band Poison, released in 1990 through the Enigma label of Capitol Records. The album peaked at #2 on the Billboard charts and it sold over 7.2 million copies worldwide. It peaked at #1 on the Cash Box charts ENUFF SAY !!!!!!!!!!

I always laugh when people use album sales to justify their own personal opinions—but only when an album performs well. If one of their favorite record was in the cutout bins two weeks after release, these same people usually say sales figures aren't a mark of quality, and somehow their pet band got screwed out of success. And ey, lots of great albums didn't sell well, and lots of multi-platinum ones are indeed great. But the selectiveness with which some people apply the standard of commercial success is just silly.

totally agree with doghouse.the commercial success is not a security (a "gage" in french) of quality.personaly i m not a sheep.last example the very average "rock believer" from scorpions.n° 1 in my country.i never understand the exictement about bands like gun n roses or poison.these two bands never catch me.after it s like we says in france "c est chacun ses gouts ,tous les gouts sont dans la nature".traduction:we have all our own taste,all tastes are in the nature".
