''Decade of Decadence'' is a greatest hits compilation album by the American heavy metal band Mötley Crüe, released on October 1, 1991. It peaked at number 2 on the US ''Billboard'' 200 chart. It was the band's sixth album overall and the first of many greatest hits compilations. ==Overview== Though it was intended to be the band's first compilation album, the content was unlike a standard compilation release. As well as six of the band's greatest hits, it featured three remixes ("Live Wire (Kick Ass '91 Remix)", "Piece of Your Action (Screamin' '91 Remix)" and "Home Sweet Home '91 Remix"), a soundtrack contribution ("Rock 'n' Roll Junkie"), a compilation album track "Teaser" (previously released on the ''Stairway to Heaven/Highway to Hell'' album), a previously unreleased live track ("Kickstart My Heart (Live in Dallas, Texas)") and three newly recorded songs "Primal Scream", "Angela" and "Anarchy in the U.K.". The album debuted at No. 2 in the US albums chart, just under Garth Brooks ''Ropin' The Wind'', and was certified double platinum by the RIAA.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=RIAA Searchable Database: search for Motley Crue )〕 The remix version of "Home Sweet Home" was the band's 8th and final Top 40 hit in 1991, reaching No. 37 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100. The original 1985 version had only reached No. 89 on the same chart.〔Whitburn, Joel. ''The Billboard Book of Top 40 Hits'', 6th ed, Billboard Publications, Inc. 1996.

"Primal Scream", "Home Sweet Home '91", and "Anarchy in the U.K." which was largely shot on the bands Monsters of Rock tour in Europe. "Rock n' Roll Junkie" had been featured in the Andrew Dice Clay movie, ''The Adventures of Ford Fairlane'', which featured a cameo by Vince Neil. The songs, "Smokin' in the Boys Room", "Teaser" and "Anarchy in the U.K." are all cover songs, originally recorded by Brownsville Station, Tommy Bolin, and Sex Pistols respectively. During an MTV interview in 1991, Tommy Lee stated that Vince Neil recorded his vocals for "Anarchy in the U.K." in one take. Neil has stated that John Lydon called him saying the cover was brilliant. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Decade of Decadence 81-91」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
