Advantages: Iconic album, brilliant songs, awesome voice. Disadvantages: Not everyones taste, maybe too much disparity in song types for just 7 songs.
_Introduction_ Bat out of Hell is the third best selling album of all time, behind Thriller and Back In Black, and here's why I think that might be... I first heard the song Bat Out Of Hell eight years ago, when I was only ten, and didn't think that much to it. What I didn't realise however, was what I had heard on the free Daily Mail CD of Power Ballads, was an awfully watered down and pitifully edited four minute version of the song. I soon came ... ...Loaf & Co_ Bat Out Of Hell was Meat Loafs big break. Before it's release in 1977, he was largely unheard of, and only known in niche areas, for supporting more popular acts with his bands. However when he met songwriter Jim Steinman, all that changed. After touring with a bizarre sci-fi musical adaptation of Pater Pan, the two collaborated and ended up with the seven song album we know today, with three of the tracks heavily influenced by the aforementioned ...

...track on the album.
Bat out of Hell is Meatloafs (aka Marvin Lee Aday) second album and by far his most successful. The artwork on the album cover is second to none and depicts a motorbike riding off like a bat out of hell. The cover itself has no become senonomous with Meat Loaf.
I will now provide a brief opinion on the album and each of the tracks.
Album Produced by Todd Rungren
All songs written by Jim Steinman
1. Bat out of Hell
Track ... ...so alone
Like a bat out of hell
I'll be gone when the morning comes
When the night is over
Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone gone gone

And the sun goes down
And moonlight's shining through
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I'll come crawling on back to you
2. You took the words right out of my mouth
Track Duration 5 minutes 04 seconds
