RABBIT DON'T COME EASY
(https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/2/2a/Rabbit_Don't_Come_Easy_cover.jpg)
Rabbit Don't Come Easy is the tenth studio album by Helloween, released in 2003. It is the first Helloween album to feature Sascha Gerstner on guitars, who replaced Roland Grapow. No drummer is listed in the band line-up for this album. Mark Cross was hired for the position before recording, but only managed to complete two tracks ("Don't Stop Being Crazy" and "Listen to The Flies") before being forced to leave due to illness. Mikkey Dee of Motörhead played on the rest of the songs on a session basis. The Japanese version contains a cover of Accept's "Fast as a Shark," with the band's new drummer, Stefan Schwarzmann.

When I heard this one I was into Helloween very very deep. It was good, but far away from my favourite Helloween albums, but now I think it's higher in my ranking than couple years ago. It has some very good songs like Open Your Life, Hell Was Made In Heaven or Listen To The Flies but it has also some fillers in my opinion. Very strange perios in Helloween history when Roland left, Sascha appeared and there was no drummer also! Rabbit was recorded with three drummers finally, it does not happens often ;) Anyway let's vote down this one, I have my strong favourites here so I'm very interested in what side this will go ;)

Andi Deris - vocals
Sascha Gerstner – guitar
Michael Weikath – guitar
Markus Grosskopf – bass
-----------------------------------
Mark Cross – drums on Don't Stop Being Crazy, Listen To The Flies
MIkkey Dee - drums on the rest of the songs
Stefan Schwarzmann - drums on bonus tracks, which are not included here

Rabbit first round. I had to vote for other song but I've change it.I've decided that Do You Feel Good is a good choice to start with.

This was supposed the big comeback after a failed experimental album. Truth is, The Dark Ride was awesome, and this one is a medocre attempt at going (forcively) back to an happier and classic sounds. It's not a dud but there are some very average songs here and the best ones would be overlooked in other, better albums.

And people voting for Do you feel good are right.

This has been my fav Helloween album for a long time now.  It's really underrated IMO.

Do You Feel Good, easily.
