The third full-length studio album by legendary British Heavy Metal band.
Released in 1983 by Neat Records, it was their last album outside a major label. Produced by Michael Wagener and Udo Dirkschneider, it didn't quite measure up to their classic debut, "All For One", but is a marked improvement over the second album, "Wiped Out". Largely credited with sowing the seeds of Thrash Metal along with fellow New Wave of British Heavy Metal trio Venom.
For those more familiar with the N.W.O.B.H.M., standout cuts such as "Break the Chain", "Take It Away" and "Mind Over Metal" help make this disc quite a treat!

The third full-length studio album by legendary Swedish Pop Rock band.
The follow-up to their international breakthrough, "Look Sharp!" (1988), as well as the non-album single "It Must Have Been Love" (from the soundtrack to "Pretty Woman", 1990), sees like most of the songs sound like they were designed to be Hit Singles, not just fillers between two or three good cuts.
The beauty of Roxette is that the duo of Per Gessle and Marie Fredriksson can do practically anything in terms of Top 40 music. From the quiet desperation of "Spending My Time" to the chanting carnival of "Joyride" to the Folky "Church of Your Heart", they bring a worldliness to their lyrics and melodies that most Pop A-listers don't even have the imagination to dream of. 
The album was recorded over an 11-month period in Sweden. The duo experienced considerable pressure from their record label, EMI, to deliver a successful follow-up album, and resisted pressure to relocate to Los Angeles and work with experienced American producers.
"Joyride" was an immediate commercial success, selling over 2.2 million copies worldwide within a month of release. The band toured extensively to support the record, performing to over 1.7 million people across four continents during the Join the Joyride! Tour.
“Joyride” topped the charts in seven European countries, and was certified multi-Platinum in several territories. In their home country, it spent seven weeks at number one on the Swedish Albums Chart, where it has been certified 3× Platinum for shipments in excess of 300 000 units. It also spent nine non-consecutive weeks atop the Norwegian Albums Chart, along with a further eight weeks at number two.
The album remains one of the best-selling albums of all time in Argentina, Austria, and Germany. "Joyride" was a massive commercial success in Germany, debuting at number six, before rising to the top spot the following week. In total, it spent thirteen consecutive weeks at number one on the German Albums Chart, and a further five weeks at number two. It was certified 7× Gold by the BVMI, indicating shipments of over 1.75 million units, and remains one of the best-selling albums of all time in the country. "Joyride" spent eleven weeks at number one on the Austrian Albums Chart, and is one of the highest-selling albums of all time there, where it was certified triple Platinum by the IFPI for sales in excess of 150 000 copies. The record also spent sixteen weeks at number one in Switzerland, and was certified quadruple Platinum there for sales in excess of 200 000 copies.
On the UK Albums Chart, "Joyride" debuted at number two, kept off the top spot by Eurythmics' "Greatest Hits". It spent 49 weeks on the chart, and was certified double Platinum by the BPI for shipments in excess of 600 000 copies. Similarly, the album spent two weeks at number two on the Australian Albums Chart, behind the Eurythmics compilation, and was certified triple Platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association. It debuted at number forty-one on the Billboard 200, on the chart dated 20 April 1991. The album would spend over a year on the chart, peaking at number twelve. It was certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in July 1991, and had sold over 1.3 million copies in the US as of 2005. In Canada, it peaked at number three, and was certified quintuple Platinum for shipments in excess of 500 000 units. It was also certified sextuple Platinum in Argentina for sales of almost half a million copies. As of 2001, "Joyride" had sold over 11 million copies worldwide.

The third Single by legendary Italian Italo Disco/Pop singer.
Released in May 1987 as the third Single from her self-titled debut studio album, the song topped the charts in France (where it became the first number-one Single by an Italian singer since 1984) and Switzerland, while peaking within the top five in Austria, Belgium, Finland, West Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain, and Sweden. It was Sabrina's first Single to be released in the United Kingdom, reaching number three on the UK Singles Chart in June 1988. Outside Europe, "Boys (Summertime Love)" peaked at number 11 in Australia and number six in South Africa. The song was re-released as a remixed version twice: in France in 1995, retitled as "Boys '95", and in 2003 as "Boys Boys Boys (The Dance Remixes)".
The accompanying music video for "Boys (Summertime Love)" was filmed at the Florida hotel in Jesolo, Italy. In it, Sabrina splashes about in a swimming pool, while her bikini top keeps sliding down, thus repeatedly revealing varying amounts of her nipples. As a result, the BBC added black bars around the image when the video was aired on Top Of The Pops in June 1988, effectively cropping it into widescreen. It remains one of the most downloaded video clips on the Internet.

The fourth Single by legendary Italian Italo Disco/Pop singer.
"Hot Girl"  was released by Baby Records in November 1987 as the debut album's fourth and final Single. After the enormous success with "Boys (Summertime Love)", the team around Sabrina's manager Menzione tried to score another international hit with a new Single. They chose "Hot Girl", a song from Sabrina's by-then-released first album, and had it remixed for the Single release.
"Hot Girl" was not intended to be marketed in the United Kingdom, as "Boys (Summertime Love)" was re-released in June 1988 after a commercial failure four months earlier, followed by "All of Me (Boy Oh Boy)" in October of the same year. In Continental Europe, it was released in two times: first in the last two months of 1987 in the majority of European countries, then in the first half of 1988 in Spain and France; as a consequence, on the Pan-European Hot 100 Singles chart established by the Music & Media magazine, its 23-week chart trajectory is divided into two segments with a two-month hiatus, including a peak at number 36 in its second week.
Although Sabrina heavily promoted the song (in a Spanish TV show, she danced in such an enthusiastic way that her breasts fell out of her top), the song did not match the success of "Boys (Summertime Love)". The song was a success in France, Switzerland, Germany, and the Netherlands where it was a top 20 hit.
Regarding the national charts, "Hot Girl" peaked within the top ten in Spain where it reached number two, being unable to dislodge Pet Shop Boys' "Always on My Mind" atop, the Flanders part of Belgium and Finland where it attained number six, and the Netherlands where it reached number ten twice. It was a top 20 hit in other three nations: France, where it debuted at number 28 and reached number 12 five weeks later, spending a total of 13 weeks in the top 50, Switzerland where it culminated at number 13, and Germany where it was present for 13 weeks on the national chart with a peak at number 19. In Sabrina's home-country, Italy, it missed the top 20 by one place, peaking at number 21 for two weeks.

The second full-length studio album by legendary British Pop singer.
After her debut studio album, "Touch Me", went Gold, Fox returned to the studio to record her eponymous second album. Emerging British super producers Stock Aitken Waterman were enlisted to contribute one track, "Nothing's Gonna Stop Me Now", after her label reportedly became concerned the album did not contain any obvious hits. However, US producers Full Force, who were helping Lisa Lisa at that time, also delivered a top 5 US hit for the album with "Naughty Girls (Need Love Too)". The album also spawned the Singles "I Surrender (To the Spirit of the Night)", "I Promise You (Get Ready)", and "True Devotion".
Jim Lea and Noddy Holder (of the English Rock band Slade) wrote and demoed the song "Shooting Me Down" for the album after being approached by Jive Records. However, Fox never recorded the song as there was not enough time to do so before the album's release date.
The album charted at number 22 in the United Kingdom, number 51 in the United States, number 41 in Canada, number 86 in Australia and number 16 in Germany.
