I loved the first one I bought years ago and this is just a replacement. It's great for keeping up a good beat when you want to exercise. The music is great anytime but be sure and put your speed control on when you're in the car.

It's amazing how quickly Warrant went from being platinum selling megastars to the poster boys for everything that was suddenly wrong about the hair metal scene, but that's just what happened in the early 90's. A lot of that backlash had to come from the title track and video to the band's 1990 album Cherry Pie, a big obnoxious innuendo-laden song about...well, I'm sure you can figure it out. That song came to symbolize the hair metal scene's lack of originality and real meaning, paving the way for Nirvana and friends to clean house.

I think it's unfair to write the scene, band, and album off based on one song though. Sure, it's probably my least favorite Warrant song, but the rest of the album is surprisingly strong melodic rock. Check out the monster guitar hooks on Uncle Tom's Cabin or the power ballad perfection of I Saw Red and Blind Faith. Bed of Roses is a great melodic track, and Song and Dance Man, Mr. Rainmaker and the cover of Blackfoot's Train, Train give the album a dose of Southern swagger. Really, aside from the title track and the closing expletive-fest "Ode to Tipper Gore", Cherry Pie is a remarkably strong album, and one that doesn't deserve the reputation it has since picked up.

If you're dead set against the hair metal era, nothing I say will convince you otherwise. Those of us that grew up with bands like Warrant know a fun rock album when we hear it, and Cherry Pie definitely qualifies.

NOTE: The 2004 reissue of Cherry Pie features digitally remastered sound and a pair of bonus demo tracks - Game of War and The Power, the latter of which appeared on the soundtrack to the 1992 boxing movie Gladiator: Music From The Motion Picture (1992 Film). It's a shame they couldn't have added the cover of Queen's We Will Rock You from that same soundtrack. The remastering alone makes it worthwhile to replace your old version, but the bonus tracks are pretty good too.

Take it from me, a metalhead thatreally doesn't care too much for the "Glam Metal" subgenre when I say that this is a great album.

My review: However, this is a catchy album that was also one of the last "Glam Metal" albums to go Platinum, before "Grunge" bands like Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Stone Temple Pilots, and (I've saved the best for last) Nirvana, etc. would take over and start to rule the music world. All 14 tracks on here are Excellent and outstanding with the exception of "I Saw Red" (the ballad of the album)

I believe "Uncle Tom's Cabin" and "Cherry Pie" are by far the strong points. "Uncle Tom's Cabin" is an axcellent semi-ballad which starts out as a soft acoustic-sounding song for probably the first 45 seconds, and then turns into a havily distorted song that you may actually want to headbang to, and then back into an acoustic-sounding outro.

Do I even need to review the song "Cherry Pie". It's excellent and while very repetitive it is one of their stand-out songs. (although personally, I like the former better than this one).

Most every song on here is great and needs to be heard by YOU. To conclude my review I'd like to wrap up saying BUY THIS ALBUM! IT WON"T LET DOWN AND IS A MUST BUY!!!

BUY THIS ALBUM TODAY!!!

Nowadays it's not "cool" to say that warrant was a great band!!. However this was a really cool band when "cherry pie" went out. This album has some really good songs and it reminds me when I was a teenager. I really love the song "blind faith"

I have always liked "Cherry Pie" and "Uncle Tom's Cabin". "Train, Train" is a pretty good track, too. The others are alright, but those are the three I bought the CD for. Being an older CD, the price was well worth it! If you like the 80-90's Hair Band style, you'll probably like this CD.
