| I'm surprised to find this album listed as Melodic Metal. It's more along the lines of Dokken and Lynch Mob. Back when I first got it I was also surprised by the great vocals. A mix of ballad types and all out rock make this a fun album to listen to. I've even busted my wife singing along, and some of you can imagine how that goes. Check out Riviera/Long Way Down. It's one of the best songs ever, and that's not intended to slight the rest of the album. I wouldn't want to be without it.

| My collection would not be complete without this all out hard rockin' classic. After leaving Keel, Marc Ferrari really outdid himself here. I find his guitar playing excels that of his previous band. Rory Cathey just soars along with his "Dokkenesque"- like vocals. Tracks like "four on the floor", "take this heart of mine", "let's make love tonight", and my favorite kick ass tune "jump the gun", are prime examples of good solid song writing at their best.

| Great class metal cd. The style reminds Dokken(Back for the attack) and Lynch mob. The singer is halfway between Oni Logan and Don Dokken. Great singers like Cathey and Rob Mason should lead the scene, instead It's hard to have their notices. I'm surprised about the low rate, for me It's 9,5. Thanks to tis site and to the other rewiwers like Koogles tahth make me discover this gem.

I want to bring you (all my lovely children who reviewed on this page, "Cold Sweat") all a little closer, cause all your reviwes bleed together like Jack Danials and Coke(A perfect mix!!!)It all started when guitarist-songwriter Mark Ferrari bailed on the band "Keel" his goal was to assemble a functioning democracy of a band dedicated to well-crafted songs and arrangements, solid musicianship. He was gonna call the band "Ferrari" and with his ideals in place he set out to do just that.

| Shoulden't be any problem, right? In a world were Murphy is the cheif lawmaker, things don't always go according to plan. For starters, a certain automobile manufacturer rejected Mark of his band name ("Ferrari") and then a semiactive Jazz group took claim to name #2,("Crying Shame"), wat a crying shame!!! Well apparently soul bro numero-uno diden't complain about "Cold Sweat", so we're off to the races and it's all peaches and cream, right Babes? Not!!! As Federico said in his review......

| ...(The singer is halfway between Oni Logan and Don Dokken.) Could it be that Oni Logan "WAS" the lead singer for "Cold Sweat" only to leave for George Lynche's band the day they were to record for MCA. Something to ponder on. Actully that's all fact so don't ponder. So know inter 22 year-old Rory Cathy and guess what? You have one fucking awsome band,(All reviews correct!!!) So regardlless of catching the wife sing or not we all know this is one bad assed band!!! 9 out of 10!!!

| Yeah this band is completely awesome. A friend of mine was best friends with Cathey, the lead vocalist in high school. I met my friend and he turned me on to Cathey's first band, Gibraltar. They a tape and IT was awesome, fueled mostly by the vocals. There was a great ballad on that one called "Real". I lost my Gib Tape years ago. Wish I could find a MP3 to download on that one, Or at least a tape. ANyway, a few years later, my friend called me again and told me about Cold Sweat. The remake of "

| For all U fans of Cold Sweat you need to check out www.cold-sweat.net this has all the dope on the band. I had the pleasure of working w/ these guys and not only do they rock, you could'nt meet a better bunch of people. The comments here are typical of what they got all over the world. It seems though that the record company had a different opinion, short sighted on their part (dont ya think). If you want some more good rock go to the-fifth.com Roy's new band, the album is for sale there. Pup

| "Let's make love tonight" is outstanding!!! Awesome! I mean, I'd go for anything that has Marc Ferrari in it! But I just can't seem to get the hang of the rest of this album. "Four on the floor", "Jump the gun" and "Cryin' shame" are good too but there's something missing here...Can't quite figure out what it is...If the whole album sounded like "Let's make love tonight" it would have been 10/10 but I can't stretch it any further than a 9/10. That's good enough though!

| I bought this on cd when it first come out in 1990 and still play this today. I bought it as it had Marc ferrari in it, I love Keel. Never expected this band to be as good as this. The thing I hate about popular bands these days is no one can F*@king sing. Check out Rory Catheys pipes, fantastic. Great songwriting and musicianship, I highly recommend this release if you are into clean vocals and a big production. Standout tracks would be Cryin shame,Waiting in vain (monster ballad), Take this he

I worked for the music industry and these guys are the best out there. I was shocked they were not resigned. I would have signed them if I had a label! I will do anything for these guys they are awesome! Marc really knew what he was doing with this project. Rory (or Roy) really fit the bill perfectly; I

I have seen the video for "Let's Make Love Tonight" and watch it every day! (Gulp) I have each scene down! When Marc and Erik are playing a solo together my heart skips a beat! Then when Chris and Erik run into to each other for a hit at the end of the solo, WOW. They all have such awesome stage presence.

| Not a weak song to be found, even though I could have personally done without the cover tune (Track #11). One of my pet peeves was always hard rock bands that did cover songs. I couldn't help but think that the band had run out of ideas. But anyway....this Cold Sweat album is sure to please if you like your metal with lots of hair and the mandated hair ballad ("Waiting In Vain"). "Four On The Floor" kicks things off nicely and keeps on rockin'. Definitely recommended for hair metal fans.

| One of m top 5 vocalists of all time! What a voice! Simply stunning especially in the verses of the killer versed but poor chorused 'Lets make love tonight'. Anyway, excellent musicianship, vocals and overall sound. 'Take this heart of mine' is as good as melodic hard rock ever gets and an all-time favourite track, 'Cryin' shame' is a great bluesy rocker, 'Waiting in vain' a very nice ballad, and overall a good hard rock disc. Unfortunately their demos are much better, but this is still good.

| If this would have come out 2 years earlier, and If they would have put out more than 1 album, Cold Sweat(named after the kickass Thin Lizzy song)would have been as big as Skid Row or Warrant or any of 'em...if not bigger. This album still holds up against anything from that era. I just listened to it tonight on the ride home from work...and I thought to myself..."Man...these guys should have been a lot bigger!" Catchy songs, great guitars (way better than Keel), awesome vocals from Rory Cathey

| They were the first band that I ever saw live. They opened for Dio at "The Riv" in Chicago back in September of 1990. "Let's Make Love Tonight", "Waiting In Vain", "Cryin' Shame", "Take This Heart Of Mine", "I Just Want to Make Love To You"...all of 'em...old favorites.

| seen great reviews about this cd and said to myself I have to listen to this cd. So now I have and don't see why such great reveiws to me this cd was just an average cd like many others in the early 90's which I called most of those bands one cd wonders. And I say thet cause most of these band had till 1993 to make second cd's, before the grunge came around. For most of these bands they just did not have what it takes to put out second cd.s I gave it 7.5.

Why do we try to disect Aor/Metal like a science experiment..just listen to the cd..you like or dislike, simple as that. It's your ears that tell the truth.I think we give 2 much credibility to ratings..but they are here for a reason, we just need to listen for ourselves in the end.Good Rock cd for summer night car crusin'

| what i like about this album is that they even maneged to fuck up the classic "i just want to make love to you" composed by the great willie dixon and so well singed by the king and queen : muddy waters and etta james! donīt spend money one this ! dl the only (good) track: "take this heart of mine" very far from the quality of lynch mob or dokken.

| Great album! The singer is indeed outstanding! They should have made it big! Cathey's new band The Fifth has some good songs but only if you are into modern rock. It's a little agressive for 80's purists. Break out is one of the albums I'm happy to discover and proud to recommend. And it's affordable too.

| "Let's make love tonight" is a great party rocker, "Rivera /Long Way Down" is a Dokken-style anthem, the ballad "Waiting In Vain" (a little bit similar to Damn Yankees songs) and "This Heart Of Mine" are also great. The major problem is that the rest of this LP is average although well played. 7,5/10
