Dangerous is a 1990 covers album by the British guitarist Andy Taylor, who is
most famous for his work in the band Duran Duran. It was a follow-up to his
earlier solo album Thunder.

Andy Taylor commented on the history behind the album in and interview with
MelodicRock: "It sort of one of those happy accidents. Somebody…a very
well known band had this idea to do that and they wanted me to produce the
album for them, doing this selection of their favourite covers. At the very last
minute they pulled out. And I said to the label – A&M – I could do that. The
guys that managed me at the time went into overdrive – 'you can do that as
well, because you know how much money they are going to pay you to do
it?!' I thought, great, this is something everyone wants to do – an album of
their favourite covers. The reason things are so raw, was that within 3 days
we were in the studio recording this thing and it was done in that sort of 'ok,
let's rehearse them and beat the s##t out of them and play them and move
on and just play them as you would do if you were in high school playing a
bunch of covers!'It was done in that very short space of time and raw,
upfront way. We had a blast doing it!"

The album was not widely promoted and had only limited success. Taylor's
popularity had dwindled since leaving Duran Duran in 1986 and this album
struggled with sales because of it. However, two singles were lifted from the
album: "Lola" and "Stone Cold Sober", with "Lola" making UK #60. Both singles
were accompanied with all black and white videos.

Ironically, Duran Duran, the band Taylor left, would attempt the cover album
in 1995 with Thank You, also to disastrous results.

Highlights include the bouncy album opener "Don't Believe a Word" originally
performed by Thin Lizzy and "Mustang Sally" originally performed by Wilson
Pickett in 1966.
