That's funny, because I didn't remember Pearcy having the tattoo. It looks so much like him, though, I let it go.

(it was the 80's) all the Girls Nicknamed me "Ratt" lol ... I guess they thought I looked a bit like him as well... (any girl that didn't want a preppy/stuck up "trust fund baby" ....I was glad to be the bad-boy they might be looking for!)  ;)  like I said ....   good times!

Uh ... NO.

Reb Beach (Winger) replaced Lynch in Dokken for a short stint (one album) and now retains a side gig in Whitesnake while making Winger records once again. Ozzy? Again, NO. Lynch played one or two shows with Ozzy but was never hired; Jake E. Lee got the gig.

not to throw facts around but brad gillis played a few shows with ozzy and formed night ranger before jake e lee ,joined..

Brad Gillis recorded a live album with Ozzy, man (Speak of the Devil)! And at this time Night Ranger was already formed. He was invited to join Ozzy's band, full-time, but declined ... so he could push the Night Ranger group. He said he wanted to make a run at it with his own band.

P.S. I made a mistake, I believe: Warren DiMartini did play with Whitesnake for a few shows, me thinks.

P.P.S. Gillis is a MONSTER player and on my top-10 list of all time.

These guys are pretty straightforward rock. Similar to Crue etc.


This is metal, man. Just saying. Not that I am a big fan of the tune. Just saying.

Big Mike, a fellow Ratt fan. I'll be damned. Good list, brother.

The list is kinda too obvious, in my mind, for a big Ratt fan.

SO many deep-album tracks from the band are amongst my very favourites.

I won't start naming names, but ... yeah, SO many ...

Looks like Carlos from Quiet Riot in the Video?

Yep, Carlos.

Do any of you "big fans" even remotely keep abreast of anything with the music that once mattered to you?!

Totally. Brad's a beast and Ozzy to this day applauds his quick cop to the gig and helping him out.

I own both Brad's solos CDs as well as all the Night Ranger albums. Him and Jeff Watson (the VIBRATO!) were a killer team. NR's now-second guitarist, Joel Hoekstra, is also terrific, alongside Brad.

Watson's got a new project in the works, too! Instant buy.

to be honest i hated watson ,maybe his goofy look,i don't know i like brads sound better,and that shared solo thing had to be equally doled out to get both in ,wasn't my cup of tea.

Sorry (lol!) just enjoyed the whole "80's" music scene (tremendously) ,played a lil guitar/banged a few whores (not a "super-fan" spouting off statistics and the life history of anyone) I do appreciate the posting of the RAtt video (bought/downloaded the album,love it!)

"Don't need nothin', but a good time
 How can I resist
 Ain't lookin' for nothin', but a good time
 And it don't get better than this"

Never liked 80s rock. The guys seemed like posers compared to the 70s acts. "Round and Round" while a good song, is no "Boys are Back in Town."

That said, this is a cool 80s rock song:


&sns=em


Arvilla's hair, back then, was pretty impressive, as well. ;D

Bands like Motley Crue, Poison and Warrant got a lot of attention among the "hair bands" from the 80s.

But musically, Dokken and Ratt were the best.

Dangerous but worth the risk
Giving yourself away
Hard Time
one step away
you think your tough
(Shizzo asked for Ratt's "Hits"...that's what I listed/these songs reflect my personal favorites)
