30 and Life: Skid Row's Debut Gets Digital Expansion With Unreleased Live Show

February 4, 2019 By The Second Disc Leave a Comment

BUY NOW AT AMAZON.COM

Rhino's celebrating the 30th anniversary of hair-metal group Skid Row's breakthrough debut album with a new digital expanded edition.

The Toms River, NJ-based band, fronted by the inimitable Sebastian Bach, spent 1989 taking over the charts with their first album, supported with memorable music videos and a carefully-honed live act, serving as opening act for Bon Jovi, Aerosmith and Mötley Crüe that year. Featuring sharp production by Michael Wagener (Dokken, White Lion), Skid Row has gone five times platinum in the U.S., having reached No. 6 on the Billboard 200 and spinning off the Top 10 hits "18 and Life" and "I Remember You."

The 30th anniversary digital reissue of the album, released on Friday, January 18 to commemorate the album just a bit ahead of its original release date (January 24), includes the album outtake "Forever" (later released on the group's first best-of in 1998) and an unreleased club gig featuring nearly all the tracks from the album plus a cover of KISS' "Cold Gin."
