"Condition Critical" is the 1984 album released by the American Heavy Metal "QUIET RIOT". This album contains a cover of the "SLADE" song: "Mama Weer All Crazee Now" . The album front cover artwork illustration was by Stan Watts. This web page has photos of album covers, inner sleeves, record labels together with production details, musicians and track-listing.
Quiet Riot's 1984 album, "Condition Critical," arrived on the scene following the band's massive success with "Metal Health." While "Metal Health" reached number one on the Billboard 200 chart, "Condition Critical" wasn't quite as commercially dominant. However, it remains a solid entry in the Quiet Riot discography.
Released in 1984, "Condition Critical" features ten tracks of pure, unadulterated hard rock. The album boasts the band's signature sound – powerful vocals from Kevin DuBrow, shredding guitar work by Carlos Cavazo, and a driving rhythm section laid down by bassist Rudy Sarzo and drummer Frankie Banali.
One of the album's highlights is a cover of Slade's classic rocker, "Mama Weer All Crazee Now." Quiet Riot puts their own spin on the song, delivering a high-octane version that stays true to the original's spirit. The album also features plenty of original Quiet Riot anthems, like the title track "Condition Critical" and the fist-pumping "Party All Night."
The cover art for "Condition Critical" is a noteworthy element. Created by artist Stan Watts, the illustration features a chaotic scene of medical mayhem, perfectly capturing the album's title.
