You get bang for the buck.......2005-04-01

"Winners Take All" is one of many Quiet Riot compilations which packages their greatest hits. This was not a band approved release, so don't expect extensive liner notes.

This greatest hits collection features ten tracks and has a budget price under $10. All four albums that Quiet Riot did for Pasha in the 80's are represented. At least one cut is taken from each one. For the most part, this includes a lot of songs that are already on other Quiet Riot compilations. However, "Winners Take All" is the cheapest of any collection you'll find for them.

The first five songs are all classic tunes (for Quiet Riot). If I recall, the only one that was not an actual single is 'Winners take all' (a Queen-style ballad). This release gets off to a good start. The quality of tracks six and seven, 'Scream and shout' and 'Put up or shut up', are both debatable, since some fans like those tracks more than others. Even Kevin DuBrow, the Quiet Riot frontman, has gone on record as saying he hates the song 'Scream and shout.'

More cuts are taken from the 1984 album, "Condition Critical" than any other release. Seeing that "Metal Health" was their biggest selling album, you wouldn't figure that this would be the case. Only three cuts come from that 1983 breakthrough album.

Two cuts are from "QRIII", including the first video, 'The Wild and the young.' At one point, Quiet Riot cut a low-profile album with Paul Shortino on vocals and a different bass player (Sean McNabb). 'King of the Hill', a fairly entertaining cut, is the cut taken from that release (known to most people as "QR").

There is no previously unreleased material here and ten tracks makes for a short listen, but this is a nice sampler of Quiet Riot's 1980's output. It is worth noting that the members do not receive royalties for any releases from this label, so they are not supportive of this release.

There are plenty of people looking at this who may only be interested in 'Cum on feel the noize', 'Mama weer all crazee now' and 'Metal Health.' They will find just what they are looking for here, and then some. There are some more songs that could have been included on this collection, for sure, but those are ones appreciated more by devoted fans of this group and won't make much of a difference to casual listeners. For somebody that does like what they hear, and wants more, there are a number of other entertaining cuts on the original studio albums that these songs are lifted from.

A Typical "Best Of".......2000-07-08

Another attempt by the record label to make a few bucks, but for anyone wanting a good sample of the 80's era Quiet Riot, this album more that suffices. From the big hits "Metal Health", "Cum on Feel the Noise", "Party All night" to the lesser, but just as good hits "The Wild and the Young" and "Mama were all crazy now", the album delivers what any Quiet Riot and Metal fan expects. For those who closely followed the band, the track "King of the Hill" from the non-Dubrow album simply titled "Quiet Riot" was a worthy addition, though it is not true to expected Quiet Riot form. I would suggest buying all the Quiet Riot Albums for a true sense of the band or picking up the current "Alive & Well" album to get a real modern sound to the tried and true classics of this great American Band. However, as a starter or to add to a collection - this Album would be an excellent addition.

Decent overview of 80's metal stalwarts.......2005-08-15

'Take Two: Accept/Quiet Riot' is a budget-priced release which takes five songs from the early catalog of each artist. Both Accept and Quiet Riot were giants in the early 80's metal pig pile. Some of the songs which earned them that status can be found right here.

Three albums by Accept, recorded during their prime, are represented on this collection. "Fast as a shark" and "Princess of the dawn" are both favorites from 1983's 'Restless and Wild.' Accept's breakthrough album, 'Balls to the Wall' from 1984, is represented by the title track (their biggest single/video) and the song "Guardian of the Night." The remaining selection is the title track from the 1985 effort, 'Metal Heart.' This covers the five songs included here for Accept. Overall, there is little to complain about.

Quiet Riot's representation leaves a little something to be desired. "Cum on Feel the Noize" and "Slick Black Cadillac" can both be found on the 1983 multi-platinum album, 'Metal Health.' While these cuts are great choices from the album, it is hard not to include the title track. Casual fans will be looking for that one, not "Slick Black Cadillac."

The follow-up, 'Condition Critical' (1984), is represented by the title track and "Party All Night." Although the song, "Condition Critical", is a favorite among rabid fans of Quiet Riot (and for good reason), "Mama weer all crazee now" was an actual single/video from this album. One has to question the song selection here, since there are only five slots available on 'Take Two' for Quiet Riot. For that reason, the ideal thing would be to use the biggest singles.

As you might guess, this period of Quiet Riot was when they were in their prime. During this period, they recorded an album called 'QRIII' in 1986, which was the follow-up to their records from 1983 and 1984. For whatever reason, that one is not covered here. The release that came after that one, titled 'QR', is highlighted on this collection with the song, "Run to You." "Run to You" is a ballad in the vein of Whitesnake that doesn't hold up as well as Quiet Riot's other music. The fact that original singer, Kevin DuBrow, had been temporarily replaced by solid (but undistinguished) journeyman Paul Shortino may have something to do with that. There is a better song on the album, like the single/video, "Stay with me tonight."

In theory, this lineup of music by Quiet Riot is a pretty good one but some of their biggest hits will not be found here. I suppose it doesn't matter but it would have been nice to have something, such as "The Wild and The Young" (a single) from 'QRIII.' Whatever the case, four of the five songs here for Quiet Riot are strong.

'Take Two: Accept/Quiet Riot' is still a very enjoyable listen and you won't really need to skip over anything on here. It does do a much better job of presenting Accept than Quiet Riot, who got the short end of the stick. Die-hard metal fans may prefer Accept's original studio albums from this time period, 1983-1985, as there isn't a definitive collection of their work to promote (their live albums don't count). A Quiet Riot fan (die-hard or casual) will almost certainly be forced to search out a greatest hits collection, because a lot of their key songs are missing here. Fortunately, there are a lot of alternatives out there that are easily available. You can expect to find limited liner notes and no new material, since everything here can be found on other albums. Based on the price alone, this is a low-risk purchase. With that said, there is no reason to pick this up if you already own the catalogs of Accept and/or Quiet Riot.
