Social Intercourse, the second album from glam rockers Smashed Gladys, was cut in 1987 and hit the racks on Elektra in 1988. Singer Sally Cato and guitarist Bart Lewis had started the band in 1982 after meeting in Toronto and decamping for Manhattan, and Gene Simmons of Kiss managed them in the early going. By now Cato was out front with Lewis playing lead, JD Malo holding down the low end and Matt Stelluto behind the kit, while Roger Lane had stepped in for second guitarist Marcel Lafleur.
The title and songs like "Legs Up" tell you the kind of leer on offer: loud, sleazy glam-tinged heavy metal with its tongue nowhere near its cheek. The big-name cameo comes on "Cast of Nasties", where Ozzy Osbourne adds backing vocals.
