Bryan Adams – Reckless (1984)
Celebrate the 40th anniversary of one of the greatest rock albums of the 80s. Reckless is the record that turned Bryan Adams into a global superstar, producing an incredible six Top 15 singles. Recorded in New York and Vancouver, it is the perfect distillation of blue-collar rock, featuring raspy, heartfelt vocals and some of the most infectious guitar hooks in the history of FM radio.
Co-written with longtime collaborator Jim Vallance, the album is a relentless hit machine that balances high-octane rockers with soul-stirring ballads. From the nostalgic yearning of "Summer of '69" to the gritty, heavy-stepping duet with Tina Turner on "It's Only Love," Reckless is a masterclass in songwriting and stadium-sized production.
