Mad, Bad and Dangerous is the second album released by the late-80s hard rock band Blue Tears. The album was one of many recordings by the band which went unreleased following the increased popularity of alternative and grunge music.[ citation needed ]

Long after the band members got involved in other projects, some of these unreleased material started to surface on the Internet. Bandleader Gregg Fulkerson decided to compile an album of most of this material and release it officially.[ citation needed ]

The album was finally released in 2005 by Suncity Records. It marked, perhaps, the return of the band, since they released an all-new album The Innocent Ones the following year.
