Asphalt Ballet

s/t

Very Rare Original LP released on Virgin America Records in 1991. Complete with Inner sleeve.

Emerging from the late-'80s L.A.  hard rock club scene, the San Diego quintet Asphalt Ballet caught the attention  of Virgin Records and released this self-titled, major-label debut in 1991. Led  by ex-Broken Rule vocalist Gary Jefferies, Asphalt Ballet's Danny Clarke  (guitar), Julius J. Ulrich (guitar), Terry Phillips (bass), and Mikki Kiner  (drums) concocted 13 bluesy, commercial rock tracks that fans of Guns N' Roses  and Poison should find satisfying if not entirely original. The album's second  track, "Soul Survive," enjoyed minor radio and MTV attention, but, for the most  part, the disc and the band were largely ignored. While certainly a professional  attempt at '80-style sleaze rock, Asphalt Ballet contains none of the hooks or  the hard-living authenticity that Sunset Strip idols Mötley Crüe, Guns N' Roses,  or even the lesser L.A. Guns used to conquer territories outside Southern  California. Proving their questionable commitment to the post-Aerosmith blues  formula of this debut, Asphalt Ballet's next (and last) major-label release,  Pigs, featured a new singer and a much more metallic approach. It takes more  than tight trousers and long hair to generate the swagger necessary to pull off  elevated crotch rock. Judging from this debut, Asphalt Ballet couldn't muster  enough confidence or conviction to fill the leather boots of their bad-boy  idols.
