Just heard that Jim Steinman died today. What an incredible body of work he has left behind. Will be pulling out my Meatloaf albums this weekend..

Absolutely MrT

I've always been a fan of Meat Loaf and loved Bad For Good since I first heard it as a pimply 14 year old teenager.

It's no surprise a lot of the songs re-appeared on some of Meat's subsequent albums.

They are timeless.

Good vs evil, boys and girls, rock & roll, love and heartbreak - what more could you want in a song ?  :band:)

R.I.P. Jim

I agree Shep. Bad for Good was one underrated album, Rory Dodds voice really added to Jims songs like Surfs Up...Classic

Strewth! I have only just found out about this. I love the Bad For Good album and Pandora's Box.
My wife and I have tix for the stage show that got postponed to November this year.
