L.A. pop-metal merchants Ratt knew better than to mess with a successful formula, following up their first two multi-platinum albums with 1986's Dancin' Undercover. Unfortunately, this lack of growth also trapped the band in a creative corner which would eventually lead to their demise a few years later. Still, with strong singles such as "Slip of the Lip," "Dance," and "Body Talk," leading the way, Dancin' Undercover achieved platinum sales.
