Title: BAT OUT OF HELL
Review: How does one describe Meat Loaf without sounding trite and cliche? To call him original would be mere understatement as there was no one like him before him, and no one like him after him. Meat Loaf does not sing Jim Steinmans' songs he devours them-he swallows them whole and when he releases them what emerges is a primal scream that soars to the heavens then down to the bowels of hell and back again. I always suspected that Mr Loaf is not of this earth but a demonic choirboy from some other galaxy and praise be to however, whoever, or whatever sent him our way so we mere mortals can stand at his altar transfixed and yes even terrified and elevated by his larger than life presence shaking as he performs his music like, like A BAT OUT OF HELL.Meat Loaf should be considered a National Treasure as well as this CD.
