About the songs themselves can be mentioned in such a rock classics anything new, who knows almost every (r), who is interested in rock music. Here truly joins a super song to the next and even the ME at least known remaining Aint Gonna Cry "is a beautiful rock number What has written only with the co-author Jim Vallance in that time for fabulous songs;. And the in this variety.
This also applies to the seven bonus tracks (approx. 25 minutes), which is probably not managed for runtime reasons an LP on Reckless ". The title song was well, but was at the time Dead-Line the release of the album yet completely finished and disappeared with the other songs for a long time in the archives of his record company. These songs are all catchy with some interesting lyrics and have wonderfully in 1984 fit on the album. All the better that this now here as a supplement and real asset are found. were recorded the songs just by Bryan Adams (voc, g), multi-instrumentalist Jim Vallance (key, dr, b) as well as the lead guitarist Keith Scott.
The second CD is the live recording section from the Hammersmith Odeon in London, of course, a treat. This is about the last of three concerts, the Bryan Adams played there with his band in April 1985, which was broadcast in the same month of the BBC.
15 title and rd. There are 65 minutes here to hear the band played live very well in front of an enthusiastic crowd London. While there are many repetitions of the album "Live! Live! Live!" Live! Live! Live! [Japan], but also many other songs that are not on there. Overall a great and well-rounded this bonus CD, which can clearly points also from the sound.
The remaster of the studio album, I find the sound good and not too inflated, as is often the case with such publications. He considers himself to my ear very close to the original vinyl LP from 1984, but also sounded excessively for the period mid-80s was already very good.
The booklet has 23 pages, is nicely illustrated with new photos - mostly from the studio of the recording sessions -and has almost four pages of text about the history and making of the album. The rest of the pages are the lyrics of the songs reserved, including the bonus-takes.
Overall, a beautiful thing this 30th Anniversary Edition ", which I would recommend with *****. If you want it even more comprehensively, buy the super deluxe edition" Reckless (30th Anniversary, Limited Super Deluxe Edition), the addition even a DVD with nine video clips of songs from the album contains as well as a Blu-ray audio to the album, bonus takes and 5.1 mixes of songs.
