About the album Bangkok Shocks, Saigon Shakes, Hanoi Rocks
The album Bangkok Shocks, Saigon Shakes, Hanoi Rocks was the debut album of the Finnish band Hanoi Rocks and was released in 1981. The original title of the album was Some Like It Hot or Some Like It Cut, but at the last moment, it was changed following a suggestion by Jim Pembroke. The album's sound is classified in the hard rock sound of the early 1980s, but with many elements from punk to glam rock and glam metal, before this term even officially existed.
After several changes in the lineup of the band from Helsinki, the group recorded their first album at Park Studio in Stockholm during January 1981 in between breaks from various performances there. Guitarist Andy McCoy is the main composer of all the album's songs except for a cover of a Bobby Vee song from 1961, Walking With My Angel. The album's hit is Tragedy, which opens the album.
Bangkok Shocks, Saigon Shakes, Hanoi Rocks reached No. 14 on the Finnish charts.
