Liner Notes
Poison'd! is a covers collection on which Poison replaced classic songs of rock, power pop and southern rock with light, approachable playing. It was made with the lineup of Bret Michaels (vocals), C.C. DeVille (guitar), Bobby Dall (bass) and Rikki Rockett (drums). Flashy choruses and cheerful rhythms naturally dye the varied selection in the band's colors.
Kiss's "Rock and Roll All Nite," Sweet's "Little Willy," Grand Funk's "We're an American Band" and other classics that were their roots line up. From the Rolling Stones to the Cars, the choices span a wide range of eras and genres. While keeping respect for the originals, the playing is relaxed. Not a summary of a career, it is a pleasant record that conveys, as is, the members' sense of enjoying music.
