Girls, Girls, Girls continued
Mötley Crüe's commercial hot streak, eventually going quadruple platinum as its predecessor,
Theatre of Pain, had; meanwhile, the title track brought them their second Top 20 single, and
"Wild Side" became a popular
MTV item. In general,
the Crüe really plays up the sleaze factor on this album, trying to recapture some of the street-tough grittiness that fueled
Too Fast for Love -- even appearing on the cover astride motorcycles and wearing leather; this time around, the influence of
Aerosmith is felt to a much greater degree. The production is too polished to really give the record a raw, dirty feel, but the raunchiness comes through all the same. Again, there's a bit of filler, as though the band knew they didn't have to make a
completely consistent record to maintain their popularity, but there are enough high points along the way to make
Girls, Girls, Girls an entertaining party-
metal platter. [In 1999,
the Crüe remastered and reissued
Girls, Girls, Girls on their own
Motley/
Beyond label with four bonus tracks: instrumental mixes of three selections, plus the previously unreleased song
"Rodeo."]
