Turns out that Lee, despite that powerful voice, just wasn’t cut out to be a Metal Queen. People might have thought I’d stolen my sister’s Tiffany tapes or something. There was just no way, as a 15 year old, I was going to let anybody catch me listening to those songs. It has Joe Lynn Turner’s melodic sensibilities and songcraft, hooks galore, and a smashing chorus.īut then you get tripe like “Goin’ Off the Deep End”, “Dream With Me”, and…ugh. The guitar is not as dominant as the keyboards, but it does at least have some guitar. The single/ballad “Only Human” is a decent song, very soft, but not too far off from stuff the Scorpions would do later on! (Lee actually sang backup vocals on “The Rhythm of Love” by the Scorps in ’88.) The best track is actually the pop keyboard rocker, “Powerline”. I won’t tell what that rains smells like, but it don’t smell good. There are also some truly awful, awful songs on here, most notably “Don’t Rain On My Parade”.

John Albini (now blonde all of a sudden?) is still her guitarist and co-writer, but there’s much less guitar on this album. The songs - commercial pop designed to get played on the radio and not a hint of metal to be found anywhere.

I got this album for Christmas 1987, and I was so disappointed. Strange voices in the black of night Spinnin round in my head.

Lee of course had the trump card labelled CanCon in her deck. There were the odd flashes in the pain - Vixen, Madame X - but Lee and Lita were the only two to get regular play year in year out. Otherwise the Pepsi Power Hour was pretty much devoid of regular female rock heroes. OK, sure the odd Joan Jett track too, after her resurgence with Up Your Alley. Growing up in Canada, you basically had two mainstream choices in female rock singers: Lita Ford, or Lee Aaron. All shades of metal were dropped what was left is a mainstream pop rock record co-written with professionals such as Marc Ribler and Joe freakin’ Lynn Turner. In the late 80’s, Lee (aka Karen) was less comfortable than today with being the Metal Queen, and her 1987 self-titled disc is possibly the best example of this.
