Description:

Personnel: Bryan Adams (vocals, guitar); Keith Scott (guitar); Tommy Mandel (Hammond organ); Dave Taylor (bass); Mickey Curry (drums).
Released 10 years after Adams`s debut record, WAKING UP THE NEIGHBORS continues in the hard-rocking tradition of its predecessors, but there are some notable changes. Here, Robert "Mutt" Lange, producer of AC/DC and guiding hand behind a number of other successful hard rock acts, is now Adam`s fulltime songwriting partner instead of Jim Vallance, who had co-written all of Adams`s early hits. Many of the latter had a touch of heartland melancholy, but these songs are more concerned with the human heart. The love song "Everything I Do (I Do it for You)," featured in the movie ROBIN HOOD, was an enormous hit.
Lange`s heavy-metal influence is evident here, with Adams serving up a fine approximation of an AC/DC song on "Hey Honey--I`m Packing You In," while "Thought I`d Died and Gone to Heaven" carries with it the unmistakable flavor of Def Leppard. But in general the emphasis, as always, is on hook-heavy rockers with catchy choruses like "Can`t Stop This Thing We Started." Whereas on earlier records Adams had spiced up his songs with traces of social consciousness, this set is back squarely in love-and-lust territory.
