Saw them same year in Phoenix, AZ. Fun fact, Jeff Martin their drummer was also the vocalist for Racer X with Paul Gilbert. Jeff has a set of lungs for sure.
That's a f bass player! And singer! In fact, it would be unfair not to mention Lord, Blackmore, Gillan and Pace in the above sentence. They are some of the best instrumentalists ever, and some of their works are between the most amazing, complete and complex songs ever!
I remember. That at the same time. They where around. The black crow's had come out. And for reasons I can't understand. The crow's became big. Spike and company. Where always a better band. Than the black crow's. They definitely should have been huge huge. huge.
I remember seeing Jake E. Lee for the first time when Circus Magazine covered the US Festival in 1983. Everyone I knew looked at those pictures and agreed he was instantly the coolest-looking rock star we'd ever seen. Even more so when we saw the videos of how he moved while seemingly effortlessly flying all over his fretboard. By the time Badlands came out, I was kind of done with that style of music, but the album grabbed me by the throat and stayed in my rotation for the next three decades. He is an absolutely smoking guitarist.
I saw these guys at Hammerjacks in Baltimore Maryland. Hands down one of the best live performances I have ever seen. They blew the doors off the place. Jake is critically underrated as a guitar player. RIP Ray. One of the best hard rock singers I have ever heard. This band was amazing.
How have I missed this vid for so long!!?? I was at this show...amazing!! Thank god it happened because it almost didn't...Asshole security at the Palace!! Was lucky enough to see them a few times and they were always great...Ray is one of my all time favorite singers...so good.
Amazing like ever and its one really gift blessed for fans of Brazil when Mr Glenn Hughes included Brazil in tour South América and here in Monsters of Rock woh and its really one monstruosuos performance and hotter than the burn flame of Deep Purple Mark 3 era
