127 - W.A.S.P. Wild Child 1985

On W.A.S.P.'s sophomore effort, 1985's "The Last Command", the band hired Quiet Riot producer Spencer Proffer to man the boards, resulting in a slightly more accessible sound than their rugged self-titled debut. Although the album wasn't the massive commercial breakthrough the band had hoped for, it resulted in their second gold-certified release in a row as they became one of the more popular metal bands of the mid-'80s. The album's two singles/videos proved popular on MTV's heavy metal-oriented shows. The party-hearty "Blind in Texas" and "Wild Child," the latter a tale of a Harley-riding free spirit.
