Forbes Senior Contributor, Hugh McIntyre, is reporting that Mötley Crüe is back on the charts in America this week, but the band didn’t release a new album. One of their biggest commercial successes from the past, Dr. Feelgood, is a win once more in their home country, following a special edition release. As the title returns, it reaches a very special new peak on multiple tallies, appearing higher than ever on more than one list.

Dr. Feelgood appears on four Billboard charts this week. The set debuts on half of them and returns to the other two - and it manages to hit a lofty position the title has never seen before on both of those rankings.

Between the two tallies Mötley Crüe brings their decades-old full-length back to, the set performs the best on the "Top Hard Rock Albums" chart. That’s not unexpected, as they faced the least amount of competition on that tally. Dr. Feelgood re-enters that race at #12 this frame, nearly finding its way to the Top 10 for the first time.

The same project is also back on the "Top Album Sales" chart, where Dr. Feelgood did have to race against many other titles, as the list is not genre-specific. Mötley Crüe comes in at #29 on the ranking this time around, which also marks a new peak for the set.

Thirty-five years after its release, Dr. Feelgood stands as the last great rock record of the 1980’s, and one of the greatest rock records of all time. Recorded in Vancouver with Producer Bob Rock and released in 1989, this iconic album took Mötley Crüe to #1 on the Billboard Top 200 and earned a 6X Platinum certification in the US. The album cemented the newly sober band's status as global superstars, hitting the Top 10 in Australia (Platinum), Canada (3X Platinum), Finland, Norway, New Zealand (Platinum), Sweden, Switzerland (Gold) and the UK (Gold).

With five massive hit singles that kept radio and MTV request lines busy, the Dr. Feelgood World Tour saw Mötley Crüe on the road and in the air on their own private jet for over 2 years. First single “Dr. Feelgood”, with its instantly memorable opening, catchy chorus, and gritty music video set the tone by reaching the Top 10 on the US Hot 100 singles chart. Originally a Top 30 hit upon release, “Kickstart My Heart” went on to become Mötley Crüe's most popular landmark track. From the buzz saw intro to the cheating-death lyrics and music video shot in a rare return to a club show at the world famous Whisky-a-go-go in Hollywood, it has now logged well over 1.5 billion streams and can be heard nearly every day in movies, commercials, video games and sporting events around the world. The Hot 100 hits kept coming as “Without You” hit #8, “Don’t Go Away Mad (Just Go Away)" reached #19, and final single “Same Ol’ Situation (S.O.S.)” was accompanied by a music video capturing the fan excitement of a live Crüe show.

The Dr. Feelgood World Tour kicked off at the now legendary Moscow Music Peace Festival in Russia and by the time the tour wrapped in late 1990, the band had played over 100 shows to over 2 million faithful fans. Mötley Crüe continues to fill stadiums around the world with many classics from Dr. Feelgood in their setlist to this day.
