Quiet Riot - Live at US Festival 83, Glen Helen Regional Park, San Bernardino, CA, USA (29.05.1983) 

❤👍

First metal band I listened to too!

RIP Frankie Banali

Correction: 2 Jews. You neglected Spencer Proffer.

@@nista67 I definitely won't try to downplay the importance of a great producer.

Yep. Carlos is the man that's for damn sure

Had his METAL LICKS instructional tape as a kid. He's awesome.

Saw him play with RATT back in 2010. Still amazing!

Been saying this for decades now. I hate the fact people try to compare him to Randy(although a great for sure). But Carlos deserves his own.

@@wiseguy9202 He was the best out there as far as replacing randy goes. But Carlos paved his own way with his own name and no one gives him the credit

Definitely true but I see this comment everywhere on old songs these days

Amen 😅

Damn right. Pure talent.

There's a reason.​@@donaldsalkovick396

I was at that show, too! Was the day after I got married--tickets (and a freaking huge bud) were a wedding gift. Best damn present I've ever gotten. That show rocked! \m/

That's insane man. $20 sheesh I wish shows today were that cheap

Me too !

$20 in 1983 is equivalent to $50 Nowadays. In comparison a ticket to Ultra Music Fest costs $400 and you don't actually see anybody perform.

Well y’all lucky bastards that were there! I’m from Jacksonville Fl. and they played the US Festival live on the radio as it was happening damn we were partying listening to the Rock day!

thats great! i was 11 and asked my super religious grandmother for the METAL HEALTH cassette for X-MAS that year. she found the album at some store and saw the cover and read the song titles and refused to buy it. thankfully she was cool and sent me the money to buy it for myself. thank you grandma .i miss you.

I hear ya man. I got into KISS into the late 70s then fell off between 80-83 just listening to the radio. Then I got "Metal Health" at 13 as well and my metal mania took off for real. I followed up Quiet Riot with Motley Crue's "Shout at the Devil" later that year and I have been banging my head ever since. I don't hafta tell you how "Metal Health" got into your inner being and suddenly Culture Club and Duran Duran and the ass clowns who listened to them were now the "enemy". Oh man I could go on and on, but I kinda figure the story is probably pretty much the same for you.

@year1914 destroyer was my first and I saw kiss later that year with judas priest which was also my first concert 79? If my memory serves me correctly I saw quiet riot in 83 with iron maiden?

Same here🤘

I'm 34 and i missed all the best times! what we gonna do now i dont know!

Some body should have told us these would be the good old days.

Yeah man! just by listening to this type of music I've figured out for years now that this was best time ever to live in! \m/

Motley Crue i

Hella fast tempo probably because he was not a fan of the song! R.I.P Sir!! Great groove,chops and above all a beautiful person!

Black Sabbath, the band that invented heavy.

Black Sabbath and Motörhead, ever heard of them?

@@TheOnlyHollywood1 Of course I have. I grew up listening to them. And my point stands. You don't need 2 guitarists to sound heavy.

@@gstar7686Lucky you being able to experience these bands at their peak

To be honest, the guitar is a bit thin here. They totally would have benefited from having one more guitarist on stage. Compare this to Judas Priest mid 80s to get the idea.

Battle axe is the name of the solo

🐐 thank you!

He sounds great here no doubt.

yea he has a great voice the only problem is that he sound out of tune sometimes cause he runs so much that he's got no air left to push up some of his notes

@@_vixen_4504 There are much worse out there. Rob Zombie is the undisputed king of running around breathless sounding like shit. lol

@@C77-C77 yea and we also have the king of running out of breath Vince Neil. But Vince had a great voice al least but the lack of warming up and taking care of it made him in a joke these days

@@breakingthelaw7974 even watching vince in the 80's was bad. literally only sounded good on the albums.

AND SPACE FOR MORE OR SO IT LOOKED! HUGE

kept him working for over 40 years!

Don't forget about Juan Croucier!

Swings that bass back and fourth like a weathervane

I saw him live a few weeks ago it was awesome he still has the moves

Rudy's signature slinger style.

34 years, man

word

gearheadcg aunt that the truth?! Good music

Millennials will no believe you unless they can 'prove' that with some website....

no bubble butts ..........lol

No cellphones either great crowd!! 🤟

@@chrisvogan3851 Today's society will NEVER get real music. Only that pop culture, auto tune crap. This is real, uninterrupted, straight up, rock and friggin' roll!

If Hendrix Loved it from beyond the grave you too, sir, will like it

Wild.

3000 props

That’s bad ass

kind of like woodstock ah! lol. cool, adventures and risky times, got to love it.

Wow you deserved it 🔥 70s 80 s in Miami.

Pretty awesome you can go on RU-vid and watch the full concert. I bet it takes you right back like it was yesterday

Cringe. So lame . So desperate.

Best comment ever. So true

@@spacesex710 I think you might have missed the meaning of the comment. He's not saying that nobody plays their instruments and nobody writes their own music. The fact is and you can look this up the recording industry has gotten into the business of finding an image instead of finding great musicians. A band like quiet riot for example did everything on their own and came up on pure talent. It was also far more common to record an album as a band instead of multitracking, I can't say that that's the case for the '80s but that certainly has changed over the years. There are plenty of phenomenal musicians who still write their own music and still play instruments but it is a fact that the landscape has changed and musicianship has really taken a hit. Someday that will turn around and we will get musicianship back but not until the recording industry and record labels become unnecessary. With SoundCloud and RU-vid and people making a name for themselves on their own we're inching closer. But it's a good comment, not to be taken entirely literal.

It's actually bullshit.

Such a good song, upbeat and wild

That song made metal a viable genre

It was the biggest show any of them had played

I'm always lookin2 see what he's up2!

His name is Rudy Sarzo and he's also worked with Ozzy Osbourne and Whitesnake

Rudy is a legendary bass player. period.

Played w blue oyster cult as well

And I've seen him play with Dio as well...

Rudy Sarzo on Bass and Randy Rhoads on Lead guitar (before Carlos Cavazo) - then Rudy Left to join Ozzy Osbourne, Randy Rhoads followed him to Ozzy, Randy recommended Carlos Cavazo to replace him in QR, Randy died in the plane crash before an Ozzy show... Rudy rejoined Quiet Riot to get to the the "best known" lineup of QR - the line up for this show...

OC Harris ...note

Loverboy was my second concert, in San Juan Puerto Rico, 1986, Dokken opened up for them.

He was amazingly underrated too.

The "Guitar Solo" is "Battle Axe" from Metal Health.

mine too bro, in San Juan Puerto Rico.

Incredible performance. They brought it and left it all over the stage. Carlos’s Run For Cover solo is mind-melting. Killer showmanship! Rudy Sarzo is a monster player. Frankie plays with power, authority and flair. He was a total fan and knew the history of rock music. But Kevin DoBlow is absolutely astounding, his voice never gets old. One of the great metal voices. Even if he is likely gacked of his mind here. Plenty of that going on backstage. Check out Ozzy when he first runs out on stage in the chicken costume! R.I.P. Frankie!! Bravo!

At least we still have Rudy and Carlos. Apparently Carlos collects cars and we all know Rudy plays with every goddamn band on the planet he’s that good.

@@godzillasimpson8357 Rudy back with Quiet riot but I cant call it riot anymore unfortunately..

He had his flying V which is a pretty model, less than I think 20 were built with those specs. He probably didn't want to play it, or maybe because it was national tv and he was endorsed by Washburn he was told to play it.

I think he still has that guitar too

Loved the shit out of that guitar when I first saw it in the magazines, which were photos from this. Now I've found the same exact model (and in the condition I want it in) to buy.

My friend had the A-20 best neck action I’ve ever play gonna have one, one day

He had a lot of guitars he used in those days, he had a couple different Washburns (the A-20 and the V shaped guitar), a couple Gibson Flying V's, an SG Junior, and at least a couple Jacksons. I remember he said in Guitar Player, on Metal Health, most of the record was done with a Jackson Telecaster copy, which I think he also plays for a couple songs on this show.

first one of their albums released in the us to hit #1,they had an album or two that was japan only.

The Go-Go's hit #1 with their debut album "Beauty and the Beat" just two years earlier, there may be some more bands to do that I'm not sure.

@@WinslowLeach1974 First "metal" band I guess I should've said...lol...they were actually considered "metal" back then...not so much compared to today's metal.

@@CaptainVelveeta Truth, it's something how music has gotten heavier over the years, and how many of those old 'metal' bands would be basic rock/pop today. But good stuff. I like QR's second album a lot too.

@@CaptainVelveeta yea but i can't call the music of today metal they have lost all the greatness in the solos if they even have solos and they don't have those cool distorted voices that they had back in the day they instead just sounds like a beast from fantasy movies with their weird heavy growling

The Speedway had some great shows back in the day...

Ha, I forgot about that! I remember seeing them and Rail. Rail wasn't around for very long, but a decent band.
