Girl – Sheer Greed (CD, 1999, Receiver Records RRCD 269 / RRCD 269-Z)

Why This CD Matters
Sheer Greed is Girl’s debut album and captures the flashy, melodic hard rock sound emerging from the UK just before glam metal exploded internationally. Featuring future Def Leppard guitarist Phil Collen and future L.A. Guns vocalist Phil Lewis, the album blends swaggering riffs, glam attitude, and catchy hooks across tracks like “Hollywood Tease,” “Heartbreak America,” and “Do You Love Me.” It remains an important bridge between late-1970s glam rock and the sleaze-metal movement that followed later in the decade.

Collector Note
Original 1999 UK pressing on Receiver Records. Girl albums remain collectible among fans of NWOBHM-adjacent hard rock, glam metal, and early recordings by major rock musicians.
