Motley Crue is a Glam/Hard Rock band from Hollywood, California, USA.
Mötley Crüe was formed on January 17, 1981 when bass guitarist Nikki Sixx left the band London and began rehearsing with drummer Tommy Lee and vocalist/guitarist Greg Leon. Tommy Lee had worked previously with Greg Leon in a band called Suite. The trio practiced together for some time with Leon eventually deciding not to continue. The bassist and drummer then began a search for new members. Sixx and Lee soon met guitarist Bob "Mick Mars" Deal. Mars was quickly auditioned and subsequently hired by Sixx and Lee. The group was still in need of a singer. Lee had known Vince Neil from their high school days. On seeing him perform with the band Rock Candy at the Starwood in Hollywood, Mars suggested Mötley Crüe hire Vince.
The band's first release was the single "Stick to Your Guns/Toast of the Town," which was released on their own label, Leathür Records, which had a pressing & distribution deal with Greenworld Distribution in Torrance. It is also alleged that the single was distributed at concerts the band performed.
In November 1981, their debut album Too Fast for Love was self-produced and released on Leathür, selling 20,000 copies. This led to intrest from Electra records...
