RATT really started rolling in 84 when I was 16 in highschool still one of my favorite guitarist of all time, Warren is an absolute LEGEND. Warren was the soul of RATT, I feel he was the best of that era, just my humble opinion....... Warren needs to get back out there........
@@tommcdonough6086 hey Tom good to hear from you my friend. I saw the band in the mid 80’s in Memphis at the mid south coliseum. That was the main venue at the time and it was general admission, fight your way to the stage. All the shows were also extremely loud as I know you’re aware. There was just a spirit in the air, all of which is now a bygone era. I thought a bunch of us were going to die that night. I was probably 5-6 people away from the stage when the entire crowd started swaying to the left and right, what seemed like 10 feet. Everyone had a terrified look on their face, but there was nothing any of us could do to stop it. Thank God nobody fell !! Warren did a very long solo about 25 feet from me. He was on fire 🔥 I’ve also often times wished he would be more active playing. I’d love to see him enter the jazz fusion sphere. Take care Tom !! ~fasteagle 🦅
I was in line at a Walgreens in Texas in early 90's and right behind me was Robin Crosby! He looked hammered but was super nice. He told me he needed some aspirin and a Pepsi - I bet... RIP man!
i love to see Carlos with the band , i think that Warren and Carlos work really well together and the world and people like me that hated Quite a Riot, get to witness how great of a player Carlos is, the lp that he made with the band is solid, its a shame that lineup did not take off, i saw Warren do all the guitar work in Austin Tx and he blew me away , esp. his Black Les Paul had the most amazing tone and i got to meet and talk to him outside and he is one of the nicest musicians i had the pleasure of meeting, Jan S
I'm 50.....this was one of my favorite bands...holy crap...I don't care what anyone says - - - I just love to see these guys still "Layin it down"....and they're doing it A++++....Warren is a legit legend with his Chops....where's Blotzer??
in 2016, 2017 blotzer fighting for trademark ratt, they were in court. blotzer lost but still fighting for the name. probably using another band with the name ratt.
Glad to see so many 80's rockers still playing and keeping rock alive but so many singers just can't sing anymore or just don't have the vocal range they once had. Keep rockin!
My favorite group growing up and my first major concert in 8th grade on their City to City tour with Kix and Britney Fox. Love these guys...and Warren D is the most underrated guitar master of all-time. RATT n Roll 4Ever!!
Warren always holds his own - nasty for sure... Robin wrote so much of it and Warren always held it down and added smoking and soulful solos - great combination - may Robin “King” Crosby always RIP...
If know the LA/Sunset Strip history, you know that this COULD have been the guitar duo in Ratt. Basically, whoever was in the band when the album "hit". I'm so glad it was Robbin, though. That dude was the heart and soul of Ratt.
That beginning riff of "Lay It Down". So awesome! I guess it always belonged to Warren, and not Robbin. If it was Robbin's, then you would think Carlos would play it, since Carlos has rythym guitar duties.
I miss the KING 🤴 And will Never Forget the Night at the Troubadour when Both Robin and Stephen Came and Saw TYRANNY PLAY!! Miss you so much,, Everyday KING R.I.P. My dear friend and Brother!!
Aside from the fact that Bobby Blotzer wasn't part of this, they sounded great! Stephen Pearcy, Warren DeMartini, Carlos Cavazo, Juan Croucier & Jimmy DeGrasso: a lineup that had potential!!
That's who it is; I couldn't place him. Given that Carlos is a smoking lead guitarist in his own right, that's pretty wild that he would be doing the rhythm guitar duties here.
@@johnbratmon6385 I actually read an interview with him some time ago in Guitar magazine where he says how they called him to play in the band. Great guitarist.
listen man - you need to check your basic spelling - this is the correct way to spell EPITOME, sorry bro but with spellcheck there is just no fucking excuse. It makes a killer comment seem really sad... That is just stark reality.
I remember when I heard it first. On a flexible promo disc in German Metal Hammer Mag. Wow ho good it was, and still it it is!!!! Thanks of rsharing it!
Back in the days, concerts were either sold out or too packed! Nowadays, heavy metal concerts are never sold out and more spaces to move around. I blame Nirvana for killing off the metal scene.
I had a poster of him with that guitar on my wall when I was a teenager. I love that guitar. It ain't cheap though. www.google.com/shopping/product/14385947173922707785?q=warren+demartini+samurai+sword+guitar&rlz=1C1GGRV_enUS756US756&sxsrf=ACYBGNTLD5kw3yj2ZasDgWcizuqdaNkaIg:1580323708825&biw=1163&bih=525&prds=epd:51819497959803164,pdprs:3,prmr:3&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjsgtnQvKnnAhWThXIEHdpAC4QQ8wII3QI
If you had to replace Robin - Carlos is a great fit... How they fucked this up and he left is fucking insane man, Carlos was a great fit and a great friend of Warren’s and he’s gone - wtf...
