Description

"Open Up and Say...Ahh!" is the second studio album by American glam metal band Poison, released in 1988 through Enigma Records. It proved to be the band's most successful release, and spawned four hit singles: "Nothin' but a Good Time", "Fallen Angel", "Your Mama Don't Dance" ( a Loggins and Messina cover) and their only #1 single to date, "Every Rose Has It's Thorn". The album peaked at #2 on the US Billboard 200. "Open Up and Say...Ahh!" was certified platinum in 1988 and 5x platinum in 1991 by the RIAA. It also has been certified 4x platinum in Canada and gold by the BPI. The album was recorded and mixed at Conway Recording Studios in Los Angeles. Paul Stanley from Kiss (whose song "Rock and Roll All Night" had been covered by Poison the year before) was originally selected to produce the record, but was unable to fulfill the role due to scheduling conflicts. Instead, the band worked with Tom Werman. Werman was an experienced rock producer, having worked with artists such as Ted Nugent, Cheap Trick, Twisted Sister and Motley Crue. The original front cover of the album, which featured model Bambi dressed as a luminous red demon with a protruding tongue, caused controversy among parental groups. The band apologized, and changed the cover so that only the model's eyes were visible. This is the 1988 US VINYL LP Pressing on the Enigma Records label. The catalog # on the spine is: C148493. The bar code matrix # is: 0 7777-48493-1 9. Record is visually graded by Goldmine standards as EX+. The cover is graded as Near Mint. The record also comes with the original sleeve.
