(FunHouse) Thirty-five years after its release, Dr. Feelgood stands as the last great rock record of the 1980's, and one of the greatest rock records of all time. Recorded in Vancouver with Producer Bob Rock and released in 1989, this iconic album took Motley Crue to #1 on the Billboard Top 200 and earned a 6X PLATINUM certification in the US. The album cemented the newly sober band's status as global superstars, hitting the Top 10 in Australia (PLATINUM), Canada (3X PLATINUM), Finland, Norway, New Zealand (PLATINUM), Sweden, Switzerland (GOLD) and the UK (GOLD).

With five massive hit singles that kept radio and MTV request lines busy, the Dr. Feelgood World Tour saw Motley Crue on the road and in the air on their own private jet for over 2 years. First single "Dr. Feelgood", with its instantly memorable opening, catchy chorus, and gritty music video set the tone by reaching the top 10 on the US Hot 100 singles chart. Originally a Top 30 hit upon release, "Kickstart My Heart" went on to become MOTLEY CRUE's most popular landmark track. From the buzz saw intro to the cheating-death lyrics and music video shot in a rare return to a club show at the world famous Whisky a Go Go in Hollywood, it has now logged well over 1.5 Billion streams and can be heard nearly every day in movies, commercials, video games and at sporting events around the world! The Hot 100 hits kept coming as "Without You" hit #8, "Don't Go Away Mad (Just Go Away) reached #19, and final single "Same Ol' Situation (S.O.S.)" was accompanied by a music video capturing the fan excitement of a live Crue show.

The Dr. Feelgood World Tour kicked off at the now legendary Moscow Music Peace Festival in Russia and by the time the tour wrapped in late 1990, the band had played over 100 shows to over 2 Million faithful fans. Motley Crue continues to fill stadiums around the world with many classics from Dr. Feelgood in their setlist to this day!
