BB Steal / On The Edge (1991)

BB Steal (Beg Borrow Steal) are a heavily Def Leppard influenced Australian band featuring former Boss lead vocalist Craig Csongrady. The band also once featured former Boss guitarist Kevin Pratt. In this album we find  Def Leppard guitarist Phil Collen as a co-producer. "On The Edge" is the second effort of BB Steal and originally released in 1991. As I said before BB Steal sounds as a heavier, at moments, Def Leppard in Hysteria album. Even if this band has no identity, at least their doin' a fine work with this record. Well played songs, tight musicianship, very good guitar work and also a fine work by Mr. Collen, as a producer! Ok this one is not a masterpiece or somethin breathtakin' but it's a very good hard rock album with some nice tunes.
A must have for Def Leppard fans, "Hysteria" era!!
