A few weeks ago, the Kousins did a retrospective of music (and other pop-culture things) from 1987, which focused on the hard rock genre (which can be found here). The Kousins will be visiting other years. But before we all move on, it was time to grade the top hard rock albums of 1987 (in their opinion).

The albums that were graded (from A+ to F) were (in no particular order):

Alice Cooper - Raise Your Fist and Yell

Def Leppard - Hysteria

Dio - Dream Evil

Guns N' Roses - Appetite For Destruction

Helloween- Keeper of the Seven Keys, Part I

Kiss - Crazy Nights

Mötley Crüe - Girls, Girls, Girls

Whitesnake - Whitesnake

Rush- Hold Your Fire

White Lion - Pride

Anthrax - Among the Living

Frehley's Comet - Frehley's Comet

Aerosmith - Permanent Vacation

Calls from Jim From Irwin, Bruno from Reassuringly Toasty South Africa, and Jem From Alabama.

We have Instagram and Twitter. We can't ask for those "enjoy" things and for you to keep getting updates because Facebook doesn't like that. Pfft...
