He knows his stuff.
This is a great album, mostly overlooked which is a shame because it's better than the silliness that came after. Saying that, no doubt he's still enjoying the funds his silly period provided .
I've been a big fan of Mr.Furnier for years, I was even at his London Marquee gig (Alice Trashes the Marquee), which is considered one of his most famous live performances due to the size of the venue and his popularity at the time. And apart from his trad-metal era (Constrictor, Raise your fist etc) and soft-rock shite like Trash (Desmond Child, need I say more?) he's done some fantastic stuff. In fact, the sequence of albums from Love it to Death up to and including Welcome to my Nightmare contain some absolute top material.
