Of all the hair-metal bands making the rounds in that genre's late-'80s heyday, Poison had a particular penchant for the art of the power ballad. For the uninformed, this is the type of song that often resulted in many Bics being flicked at arena shows and was oftentimes the quickest route to pop success for bands that might otherwise be too heavy for regular airplay. BEST OF BALLADS & BLUES cherry-picks the best bits from these former denizens of the Sunset Strip.

Even non-fans will instantly recognize the Meat Loaf-like title "Every Rose Has Its Thorn," and the inevitable late-'80s prom/wedding song "Something to Believe In" (in both regular and previously unreleased acoustic versions). Diehards will swoon over "Until You Suffer Some (Fire and Ice)" and "Theatre of the Soul," from the line-up featuring temporary C.C. Deville replacement Richie Kotzen. Also included is the harmonica-and-piano-adorned "Be the One," featuring temporary guitarist Blues Saraceno, from the long-shelved CRACK A SMILE album later released as CRACK A SMILEŕAND MORE! six years after it was originally recorded.

Recorded between 1982 & 2000.

3 stars Not a bad collection
The song selection for this cd isn't bad, but I really only bought it because their greatest hits cd included all their singles but one, 'Until You Suffer Some.' Which was included here.

5 stars Best of the best band ever
Poison is already the best band ever and this CD just compliments there greatness. The new 'Something to believe in' is even better than the old one and 'every rose has its thorn' is always a classic.

5 stars Poison Collection is a Treasure
I have all of Poison's albums, except "ROCK CHAMPIONS". But this album is a product of the years that they have been together, and it is an awesome and eloquent collection. If you are a Poison fan like myslef you HAVE TO HAVE this album. It has all their hit ballads and some that are sensational that haven't had air play like "THEATRE OF THE SOUL" that is one of my favorite ballads. The acoustic version of "STAND" is wonderful and the guitars are in total sync. The modern version of "SOMETHING TO BELIEVE IN" is a great breath of fresh air that tells of more modern hard times that is as equally as touching and it is also acoustic. Don't waste your time get this album. It isn't just another greatest hits album, it has songs that didn't get the air play and radio attention they deserved. It is a musical treasure. Rock on!

5 stars Great Compilation!!!
Man, this CD is gonna kick tail. When I heard this was coming out, I feared it would just be songs from Poison's 3 big albums. But now that I have seen the track list, all fears have been put to rest. You get the main essentials from the early albums, but you also get 3 tracks from the grossly underrated Native Tounge, "Until You Suffer Some (Fire And Ice)", "Theatre Of The Soul", and "Bastard Son Of A Thousand Blues". All are great tunes. You get both ballads from Crack A Smile, "Lay Your Body Down", and "Be The One". And you also get the ballad from Power To The People, "The Last Song". On top of that, you get one of the best songs from Flesh And Blood, "Life Loves A Tragedy". And to make things even better, there are two bonus tracks. An acoustic version of "Stand" (which will probobly be better than the original version), and an acoustic version of "Something To Believe In". The original version is also included. I read somewhere that the new version will have all new lyrics, making the song more relavent to modern times. How cool is that? I can't wait for August 5th.
