 Ah. The Crue. November 24, 2008
Motley Crue were a band that could have been a lot more then they ended up being. Their first two albums (Too Fast For Love and Shout At The Devil) we're absolutely amazing. They were, and still are unique, powerful, and energetic. Those two albums are the evolution of the New York Dolls, The Stooges, The Damned, AC/DC, and perhaps a little Sex Pistols and David Bowie into something entirely on it's own. They are among the greatest albums of Glam Rock. Motley Crue however, later devolved into something rather horrible. After Shout the Crue lost their soul. Theater of Pain and Girls, Girls, Girls are hardly better than anything from such equally horrid acts as Poison. Though both albums did contain a single good song (Home Sweet Home, and the title track from Girls). The '91 remix of Home Sweet Home was undoubtedly better though. Overall, This set comes highly recommed, for 2 reasons. 1) Shout At The Devil, their best Album 2) for the Leathur mix (the best version, and the rawest) of Too Fast For Love. Girls, Girls, Girls and Home Sweet Home are also here, and are good songs in their own right. The rest, however, should be tossed into the dump of bad music.

Motley Crue. Their exploits are the stuff of legend, and their music changed the look and feel of heavy metal. They quickly climbed to the top of the Hollywood hair metal pack, and stayed there well into the 1990's.
The band's back catalog has been reissued so many times it's hard to keep track of them all...until now. Music To Crash Your Car To Volume 1 is the definitive collection of early Motley Crue recordings. You get the band's first four albums - Too Fast for Love, Shout at the Devil, Theater of Pain, and Girls, Girls, Girls - all digitally remastered plus a wealth of bonus material.
Here's what you get:
Disc 1 - The complete Too Fast for Love album, plus the highly sought after original Leathur mix of Too Fast for Love. This is the real highlight of the box set, as it lets fans hear how the band's first album was really supposed to sound. Too Fast for Love is my favorite Crue album, so this is my favorite disc in the box set.
Disc 2 - This one starts with a few Too Fast for Love bonus tracks, after which we get the whole Shout at the Devil album. Closing out the disc are some demos and b-sides from that album. The sequencing makes it hard to listen to this disc as an "album," but I don't see a way around that short of expanding the box set to 5 CDs.
Disc 3 - This disc contains the full Theatre of Pain album, plus various demos and outtakes from that album. This is probably my least favorite of the Crue's early albums. I know the power ballad "Home Sweet Home" was a hit, but the rest of the album didn't have the same wild energy of the band's first two releases.
Disc 4 - This disc gives you the full Girls Girls Girls album, plus the assorted demos, remixes, and live versions. Motley Crue was on top of their game with this album, and the song Wild Side is one of the best metal tracks of that era. Their cover of Jailhouse Rock is a fun addition, and works a lot better than the band's take on Smokin' in the Boys' Room.
Overall, Music to Crash Your Car To is everything a box set should be. The only drawback is that the album artwork and liner notes (lyrics, etc.) are missing from the box set. If you can live without them (and it's not like Motley Crue's lyrics are that hard to understand), this comprehensive box set is the best way to catch all of the classic Crue albums in one shot.

This box set is made for fans who want to collect EVERYTHING without spillovers. Not only do you get every song (in original order) from their first 4 albums, but you also get extra tracks on thier re-issues as well as tracks exclusive only to this set. Fans of "Too Fast For Love" (like me) won't be disappointed with the Leathur Mix version. I like it better than the more popular version, actually. The ONLY downside to owning this set is that the original album covers are not included.
A great compilation April 12, 2005

There is also a booklet that comes with this box set that has several cool pictures, a track list, songs, credits, and there are two stories- "Why Motley Matters" (written by Shaun Pollit)and "Motley Crue Ruined My Life (for which I am eternally grateful"), that was written by Dante Bonutto. Shaun Pollit is the founder and webmaster of www.motley.com (the official website for The Crue), and Dante Bonutto is a London based journalist, a former artist, and a repertoire man for Eastwest records UK. He wrote the Motley Crue biography entitled "The Comedy and The Tragedy: The First Five Years". Since both Pollit and Bonutto have worked with Motley Crue, it is nice to see that they have had some contribution to this box set. All of the above mentioned are pros for this box set, so that me cover a couple of cons about it:
All of Motley Crue's albums have been re-issued, and besides the bonus tracks that appeared on them, they all also happen to be enhanced. While this box set has Motley Crue's first four albums repackaged with bonus tracks, the CDS are not enhanced, which would have been a nice addition for this box set.
Some of the same songs appear on this box set.
People with Ipods: Since this box set has Motley Crue's first four albums repackaged with bonus tracks, don't get confused: Itunes will put (or at least they did for mine)disc one and disc two together, instead of putting them seperately as disc one and disc two. As for discs three and four, disc three will be listed as "1985-Theatre Of Pain" and disc four as "Girls, Girls, Girls". All of what I just mentioned is not a con about this box set, and just becuase it did that on my Ipod doesn't mean that it will do that on yours, but if you have an Ipod and Itunes does the exact same thing with your copy of this box set like it did mine, I hope all of what I just mentioned saves you some confusion. Itunes does have a copy of this box set available-but it is only a partial album, so you won't get every song, and you will have to purchase it song by song. Besides, with the booklet and the liner notes, I would strongly recommend you get this box set at the store or order it off the internet.
Overall:
This is one of the box sets that has been released so far, and if you are a Motley Crue fan, add this to your collection, and don't forget to get Volume Two of this box set.
