 (5 Customer Reviews)
Although 1988's OU812 was another mega-seller for Van Halen, it turned out to be a somewhat rushed affair, since the group was under a strict deadline to finish it in time for the start of the band's summer concert festival, "Monsters of Rock." More time was spent on 1991's FOR UNLAWFUL CARNAL KNOWLEDGE, and it shows--it's one of the best and most consistent Van Halen release of the Sammy Hagar era. It also turned out to be the line-up's heaviest and most rock-oriented release, due in part to the involvement of Led Zeppelin producer Andy Johns.
The album spawned several popular singles and MTV videos, such as the album-opening "Poundcake" (which the group performed live on the 1991 MTV Video Music Awards), and the more pop-oriented tracks "Runaround," "Top of the World," and "Right Now." Also featured was the Eddie Van Halen solo guitar piece "316" (written for his newly-born son, Wolfgang), as well as "Judgement Day," "Pleasure Dome," and "Man on a Mission." The ensuing tour for the album eventually resulted in Van Halen's first live album, 1993's LIVE: RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW.
Recorded at 5150 Studios, Hollywood, California.
Van Halen: Sammy Hagar (vocals); Eddie Van Halen (guitar, keyboards); Michael Anthony (bass); Alex Van Halen (drums, percussion).
For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge Music Van Halen For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge Songs For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge Music Review Average Rating: (4.4 out of 5 stars)   A Must Have for any fan of hard rock
If you like any rock music what so ever, you have to get this. Every thing about it is great. If you are going to get 5 Van Halen albums get this, Van Halen 1, 1984, 5150, and fair warning. I Know you will enjoy these recordings. By the way Roth and Hagar are both great singers, and if you are a fan of Van Halen and hate one or the other you are not a true fan.

The Best Yet
I've never heard a better VH album. The grunge style gives it a more 90's feel. H#ll of a lot better than their 1995 studio follow-up, Balance!

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No  A More Consistent Release
This album is a little more consistant than the last, but it's also not as great in the good parts. Poundcake and Judgement Day are killer, Pleasure Dome has some absolutely killer guitar and drums, even if it's not that heavy, and This Dream is Over is pretty dang cool. There really is no weak song on this album, but nothing makes me pee my pants with glee either. ONe thing to mention, this is the best sounding album since 1984.

Recorded in June 1956. Originally released on Tradition Records (1005). Includes liner notes by Paul Clayton.
Paul Clayton's first commercial album, and a classic of its genre. The unifying element for these 20 songs was Herman Melville -- in the wake of his entertaining at the premiere of the 1956 John Huston movie, Clayton was asked to cut an album of sea songs that would have been known in Melville's time, the 1840s, and the result was these 20, a selection of short-drag shanties, much longer halyard shanties, and captain's shanties, all used in connection with different jobs and activities aboard ship. They're passionate, lusty, funny, ironic, and often laced with a mood of sadness, for these pieces were usually sung by men who were in the midst of months away from land and loved ones. Along with Englishman A.L. Lloyd, Clayton was the foremost exponent of whaling and seafaring songs during the '50s, and this album was his magnum opus -- his singing is authentically rough and unembellished, making ...

The Nat Adderley Sextet's Soul Zodiac could easily have been buried in a time capsule as an example to future generations of the ideas that were in the air in late 60s/ early 70s popular culture. A concept album based on the signs of the Zodiac, a hip narration, psychedelic guitars and some fatback drums. Paradoxically it was this level of vogueishness, that for many years consigned it to the parts of the jazz catalogue that time had forgotten. However in the early 90s the acid jazz scene discovered its funk filled grooves and hip hop producers used those very grooves as the building blocks of their own records, turning the album into a sought after collector's item. The Adderley brothers were born in Florida, Julian, more famously known as 'Cannonball' in 1928 and Nat in 1931. Cannon became a renowned alto saxophonist, and one of the leading bandleaders of his day. Signing in 1955 to Mercury Records, but making himself a national name when he joined the Miles Davis Sextet in 1957 being present on the recording of Davis' most enduring album Kind Of Blue. After leaving Davis he signed to the New York independent jazz label Riverside where he began to score a series of jazz hits that would make his group one of the most successful jazz bands of the time. A key component of that group was his brother Nat who had played at various times with his brother in the 50s, as well as with J J Johnson and Lionel Hampton. After rejoining Cannon he would stay in his bands until his brother's death in 1975. As well as his cornet playing being the front-line instrumental foil to Cannon he was also responsible for some of the most important tunes in the group's song-book including 'Work Song', 'Jive Samba' and 'Tengo Tango'. The Cannonball Adderley Quintet's success, and problems at Riverside saw them signed in 1964 to Capitol Records and working alongside staff A&R man and producer David Axelrod. Axelrod and Cannon got on well, and they settled into an extended period of work that would see the group reach a new level of success. That success reached its peak - commercially ...
