This quote from Sounds Magazine 1981:
"Jim Steinman, author of all this fevered lust-rock, had to salvage the follow-up to 'Bat Out Of Hell' due to Meat's vocal collapse and release it as his own solo LP. Thus 'Renegade Angel' became 'Bad For Good,' and Meat's album was to be 'Rock 'n' Roll Dreams Come Through,' except at the last minute Jim took that anthemic swoon and stuck it on a free EP with his album. In those circumstances, the hopes for a worthy Meat Loaf part two seemed ever receding."
I guess he didn't know about the trade off.
Still not sure if Meat actually recorded a vocal, if it got to that point.
