Grading the 1987 Hard Rock Albums

A few weeks ago, the Kousins did a retrospective of music (and other pop-culture things) from 1987, which focused on the hard rock genre (which can be found here). The Kousins will be visiting other years. But before we all move on, it was time to grade the top hard rock albums of 1987 (in their opinion).

The albums that were graded (from A+ to F) were (in no particular order):

Alice Cooper – Raise Your Fist and Yell
Def Leppard – Hysteria
Dio – Dream Evil
Guns N’ Roses – Appetite For Destruction
Helloween- Keeper of the Seven Keys, Part I
Kiss – Crazy Nights
Mötley Crüe – Girls, Girls, Girls
Whitesnake – Whitesnake
Rush- Hold Your Fire
White Lion – Pride
Anthrax – Among the Living
Frehley’s Comet – Frehley’s Comet
Aerosmith – Permanent Vacation

Calls from Jim From Irwin, Bruno from Reassuringly Toasty South Africa, and Jem From Alabama.

We have Instagram and Twitter. We can’t ask for those “enjoy” things and for you to keep getting updates because Facebook doesn’t like that. Pfft…
