Motley Crüe Calling
Sylvie Simmons, Creem, February 1984
THE PERFECT WORLD...Little waterfalls tinkle cheerfully down the hillside and rabbits and chipmunks scamper playfully in the long grass of the sun-dappled meadow; bluebirds tweet their happy tweeting high in the linden frees, and all the men look like Motley Crüe!!
