As I'm getting older, my love of 80's metal only grows. Those were my high school years. So many great guitarist that some rarely get talked about.......Carlos Cavasos is prime example.
Quiet Riot as a whole doesnt get talked about as much as they should. I love them and even I forget about them sometimes, then I head them on the radio and ill be listening to just quiet riot for weeks on end. Too many great metal bands unfortunately get left in the dust
What I remember about him was his tone. He is maybe the only bassist from the 80s LA metal scene that I immediately know is him, just from his tone alone. His playing is top notch as well, he ignores nowhere on his neck, including super high up.
Yes, he is a masterful player who should carry a reputation like other 80s greats have. But for some reason hes practically unknown outside of guitarist circles. But in my opinion he no doubt hangs with other 80s legends like Rhoads, DeMartini and Jake E Lee. You got the players who all melted together, being carbon copies of everyone like CC DeVille and countless other EVH wannabes and then you have the greats. Carlos is in the great group.
@@viewer9997 i think that all the sub genre lines are too fuzzy and we shouldnt be using them to critique songs, i think people should just be able to call it whatever they want as long as its somewhat correct, like dont call someone like AC/DC a death metal band and etc. you know?
I’d like to think Butch greeted Frankie with a sly smile and was probably like “So who do ya reckon’ll come next out of Rudy or Carlos?” and Randy probably just looked confused at the mention of his replacement’s name. Randy’s death was especially hard on Rudy... heck, he’s even said that he came back to QR because he felt it was the only way he could still enjoy playing bass guitar at the time...
I was young teenager when this record came out...I don't think a lot of people today realize how huge it was back in early 80's...just a massive explosion.
Think of how much music there was from 78-84. That 6 year period is insane. From one hit/album wonders to the mega bands. QR and Twisted Sister probably gave us the two “anthems” of our rock and roll youths. Those two songs are about how and why we jammed loud and proud to Ozzy, AC/DC, VH, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Rush, Crue, etc the list goes on.
that was the best decade to grow up. I was 17 when their debut album came out. Loved it then and still love it now. I will never forget the first time I heard them on my radio in 1983; I was totally blown away. Still banging my head with them. They are one of the best bands of the 80's. People today just don't get what a great period the 80's were and how it impacted today's music artists.
I almost drove my grandma out of her mind playing these HEAVY METAL anthems like this one and others at full volume !!! I can almost hear her voice now screaming outside my bedroom door ( PLEASE TURN THAT RACKET DOWN FOR GOD SAKES !!!! ) Yeah those were the days !! 😎👍🤙🍻
My Grandma's hearing was going and she refused to wear a hearing aid. When she babysat us, we would blast heavy metal music, and she would just smile and keep walking by. It was awesome, LOL.
@Christina Colosimo it's sad ! but at the same time funny ! I also drove my parents crazy ! playing this song really loud ! I spoke no English at the time ! but it didn't matter ! I bought the metal health vinyl when it came out ! a l still have it to this day ! Cheers 🍻 !
i remember hearing this song for the first time back around 1983 and thinking what a badass song this is, nothing sounded like it at the time! almost 40 yrs later it's still a cool song
And then the decade became band after band ripping them, Motley and Ratts sound off until it became a parody of itself. I love the original group of bands that came out of that scene though.
Carlos is one of the most underrated metal guitar players of all time. I would put him up there with the greatest. There are many who can shred, but only a few who can shred with melody. 🇲🇽 🇺🇸 Carlos Cavazo
In those times where heavy metal doesn't needed tattoos everywhere, extravagance, invoking evil at anytime, profanity, flown language and super extra mega great effects and productions. Just and only performance, good lyrics with almost a bit of sense, hability and a great sound even in live concerts (Man! it was 1983)
E@t sh1t man! Now if you'll excuse me, I'm late for my tattoo appointment. I don't want to miss it because I have a busy night planned. I'm going to have sex with 18 young women immediately after my tattoo appointment, and down eight bottles of Jack Daniels. Hail Satan! 666
The divinity of Heavy Metal music is misunderstood by many, as it"s to deep for most humans. Brainwashed religious fanatics for example, like christians, have always told people that Heavy Metal music is "Evil". But what isn't "evil" to them ? EVERYTHING is "evil" to them because they will DEMONIZE everything, anyone, and everyone that does not worship their fake religion full of lies. They will demonize everything they do not understand, and they understand NOTHING, therefore they will demonize EVERYTHING ( including YOU if you question them on their stupid beliefs that they need to protect - as darkness PROTECTS in their illusions of the blind Ego-mind). As they have no depth whatsoever, which is why they cannot understand anything. as they're always at the surface of images of their blind ego-mind of silly beliefs. Totally SHALLOW in their DARKNESS and their total self hatred. So they DEMONIZE everything and hate everything and hate the world, and hate all of nature, they have absolutely NO PRESENCE!!, They hate the Earth like no other, as its a reflection of their Self hatred.. in their cold and closed inner prisons of endless Bondage and hells within them. But the Divine Truth is, Heavy Metal and Rock music is a divine creation of the infinite intelligence of the Universe of Spirit and Nature, to wake humanity up, hence why it's LOUD and Screaming ! Heavy Metal and Rock music started out as being the "REBEL" music of society during the psychedelic (sacred divine plants) era. As EVERYTHING in human society is a LIE (even your American holidays are ALL totally fake man-made lies, as humans are stupid enough to believe christmas has something to do with a persons birthday, search "America's occult holidays" to see the total sham of it all).. And since Heavy Metal is the Rebel of society, and EVERYTHING in Human western society is a LIE, then OBVIOUSLY there will be far FAR more Truths in Heavy Metal. Heavy Metal music is absolutely LOADED with infinite Spiritual Truths that the ego-based mind is afraid to see and afraid to understand.There is NO genre of music on the planet that "ASKS" so many deep questions as heavy metal and rock music. And that's why christian idiots have to label it as "evil" , as they have absolutely no answers to anything, therefore they HATE any deep questions ! Because they hate themselves. Listen to rock bands that speak about the illusion of time, and alchemy of sacred divine plants, And speak also your divine 7-chakras in their songs. As well as talking about the countless lies of the "I" as who you think you are is total illusion (just as Corrosion of conformity does so well through their discography). Those 4 things are vital, and when you do you will find beautiful Spiritual music from bands like Iron Maiden, Blind Guardian, Death, Testament, Epica, Amenra, Isis, Dio, Neurosis (very special band !!), and Tool, Black Sabbath, and Queensryche (and many more), as well as softer magical bands like Pink Floyd and Neil Young etc, that is speaking to Soul (not the ego-mind) ;-) . Fake 'party" bands like the van halen's and the ac/dc's of the world cannot touch these bands. And stay away from "Nu metal" bands and 'commercial bands like the Limp Bizkit's of the world and the Papa Roach's of the world. It's total society garbage about the blind ego-mind, or about labeling and blaming (like pathetic pop diva's and eminem who are always labeling and blaming in stupidity of victim consciousness), and "victim consciousness" nonsense that doesn't serve you in any way. < 3 A band like "Blind Guardian" for example is loaded with beautiful Spiritual truths in their music catalog. It's very deep so you have to look beyond what people tell you what the songs mean. Don't follow "labels" of what other people say the songs mean as the mind can only label things at the surface of images and is blind, as these songs all mean YOU in many deep ways that the left-brain thinking ego mind of thought cannot see or understand. In one of my Ayahuasca ceremonies after total surrender of the ego as I surpassed the illusions of death, eye was given the sword of light from the Universe. The sword of Light came through me in magical beauty as I was downloaded massive amounts of knowledge love and wisdom through my heart chakra. This magical sword is far beyond how you see a sword in a picture in the illusions of images as this sword is multi-dimensional as I became "one" with the sword, the sword was me and I was the sword, as ONE in infinite beauty and magic in the 5th dimension of Consciousness. The sword of Light is only to be used for love and light and becoming in full awareness of my Soul purposes and missions on this planet to help awaken humanity out of the countless illusions of human society. Not a sword that can ever be used to harm anyone or anything. And through that experience I was taken back to Blind Guardian's "Somewhere Far Beyond" album that I listened to as a young man in the early 1990's, and Mother Ayahuasca showed me that Blind Guardian album cover and she said to me: " You see Robert, You have always been one of the chosen ones of Light, and you will always be one of the chosen ones of Light" .. and she showed me what a sword really means (that has absolutely nothing to do with what silly humans think a sword means as the blind human mind takes everything beautiful and sacred and twists it in countless lies).. Blind Guardian's "Somewhere Far Beyond" album cover is an Ayahuasca circle, with the Shaman playing Ayahuasca icaro's at the top through some kind of flute in the shape of an Ayahuasca vine on his chest, the flute at the bottom pointing to the light at the center of the circle. And he's elevated above everyone else sitting on a stool and wearing a crown (not just a hood like the others). And he also has a condor sitting on his shoulder (the highest flying bird that also has the ability to shift between Spiritual dimensions). In Ayahuasca art you will see the condor depicted quite often, and for infinite good reasons. Ayahuasca is the oldest and purest, and is by far the most effective form of Spiritual practice on the planet. Nothing could be more obvious as you listen to that album ;-) I so clearly remember as a child listening to heavy metal during the 1980's, & entire worlds opened up for me, bands such as Iron Maiden, Testament, Sabbath, Dio, and other great bands such as "Death" and Queensryche ( "Roads To Madness" by Queensryche for example is an Eternal Spiritual Truths classic), etc. A little later on in the early 1990's I got into the beauty of Blind Guardian with their beautiful album 'Somewhere Far Beyond". So many beautiful things that fake bands like ac/dc could never come close to offering. I never understood when people would tell me that Heavy Metal music is far too heavy to get into and too overwhelming. I always laughed, since I was a child, how people would tell me that this isn't music, but only loud cannons firing. I ALWAYS laughed as they tried so hard to sway me, but could never sway me an inch. From family members to friends to pathetic pastors in churches (and let me tell you that you will NEVER find more fake people on the planet than fear-monger pastors and priests in churches), as nobody hates our beautiful Mother Earth and Nature and divides people's more with hatred than pastors in churches, and they mostly hate themselves. And I never once cared for their blind and pathetic opinions, I always laughed hysterically inside. I always laughed hysterically how they couldn't "get it." . Because to me, when listening to heavy metal, it was always a blissful sweet symphony of beauty !! For me, it was always so soft, and wonderful, so welcoming, and Magical !! I feel so sorry for the humans that have no capability to ever understand the beauty of real heavy metal music, because heavy metal has so many beautiful Spiritual messages from the infinite Universe that the blind ego-based mind of duality is afraid to see, and afraid to understand. Mother Ayahuasca showed me in infinite ways how Heavy Metal music was so vital and so beautiful in so many magical ways for my Spiritual growth. And this magical band of beauty, Blind Guardian, was absolutely Massive and monumental for my Spiritual journey of the Universe of be-ing and infinite truths of beauty of Light and Spirit. ;-) .. Mother Ayahuasca showed me how my Soul always chose the right bands and the right music, far beyond my mind. Intuitively I knew it all along... but my goodness Mother Ayahuasca showed me so many deep Spiritual truths in deeper ways of infinite understandings of Spirit, that the blind ego-mind that lives in the illusion of time and the illusions of duality, is totally incapable of understanding..
@@Urnm-jy4bg I think your comment proves why he, along with so many others, feel that way. Going to a concert now has no feel anymore. Everyone looking at their phones or watching through their phones recording the concert. You must be a millennial!!!
@Lone Ranger they did all of the above though. Popular music is really just a sign of the times. Physically most people are living in the most peaceful times mankind has ever experienced, but mentally those who live easily are not. I think technology is taking its toll on humanity. Maybe I'm just thinking too deeply, but the type of music that we get today that becomes popular is usually very hollow and egotistical I.E. boasting about something. I feel like before the internet and social media became huge we were much more intelligent.

well, hell! When you play with the likes of Ozzy Osbourne, Ronnie James Dio, Whitesnake, you have to wear pretty big-assed shoes, because if you ain't good, your career is shit.
Quiet Riot opened so many doors for metal bands in America. I consider Kevin Dubrow one of the great vocalists of all time, and I only realized this after watching him in the Hear N Aid documentary - Amazing singer
Possibly the BEST band from that original group of LA Strip bands as well. It's either them or Ratt. Later in the decade GnR came along and took the crown but the initial explosion of bands, they are neck and neck with Ratt for being the best all around BAND.
I'll never forget the first time I heard them on the radio back in "83 ..I was blown away by their sound.. 32yrs later I'm still banging heads with them . I'm very fortunate to be in their new documentary "Well now your here , there's no way back !!! I had the opportunity to meet the late great "Kevin Dubrow " RIP .... And to become buds with Frankie Banali #awesome
It’s got to be rough to work the clubs for years, finally get a record deal, a hit song or two, a number 1 album on the charts and then your hair falls out.
@@colico14 He is, one of the greats. Met him in Idaho when Quiet Riot played my own. Rudy was not in the band but was playing bass with the singer of great white's band. QR invited Rudy for a song or two tho.
You know I never knew that. Maybe that explains that super unique and recognizable tone he always had. I always know its him on a recording just from the sound of his bass.
This is my favorite song of all time. Even though later in life the blues is my favorite genre, I can not help but to go back to my childhood and turn up the volume to this song.
@@deerski4426 Oh my dude, you forgot Rudy Sarzo existed for a minute there(he’s QR’s og bassist... he and Randy Rhoads were like brothers, RIP Randy, Butch and Frankie.... you’re probably all waiting on him to join you guys up in rock n roll heaven).
This is how to Rock it,I really like this song alot!!!! Played it Loud n Proud on my radio. Your Biggest fan from Pasadena, CA 😎 Awesome Band,they kicked a$$!!!!
US FESTIVAL...man I wish I had a time machine to go back to this epic show..my parents wouldn’t let me go🥺 we will never see anything like that incredible 3 day show ever again.. those of you who went... respect for getting there and surviving the heat!
I was there in San Bernardino for all 3 days. It was so hot 🥵 but what a great time. Looking back to 1983 it was a long time ago, 22 yrs old but will not forget all the women, drugs and fun. I came upon this by accident. Pleasant surprise. Still Rockin and always will!
It’s impossible to frown while listening to this song. They sound fantastic live! I was born in ‘80 and this song is engrained in my being. As far back as I can remember the adults around me were jamming metal. Thank God for that.
Kevin is missed big time, his place is forever cemented. My heart aches for Frankie, you can feel his love for his good friend. Bonds like that can't be broken however, it lives on.
Como 10 años que no veía ni escuchaba a estos weyes! I INCREIBLE!!!!! me fui a mi adolescencia!! Y de nuevo moví la cabeza como nadie me la había echo mover!!! INCREIBLE!!! adoro los 80s!!
Goddamn Dubrow sounds JUST like the album here... and this was the last song of the set, to boot! If he was tired at all, he sure wasn't showing it in the slightest. Rest in POWER, my man.
As I'm getting older, my love of 80's metal only grows. Those were my high school years. So many great guitarist that some rarely get talked about.......Carlos Cavasos is prime example.
100000% agree!!!!

And to my knowledge, they weren't using backing tracks, which are so common nowadays.
Is that Stephen Miller singing?
@@cockyplopsnigga No, Kevin DuBrow. A great singer, rarely talked about sadly

Rudy Sarzo was a badass bassist for more than several rock bands. A Rock Legend.

I think he's with Blue Oyster Cult now...

Because to me, when listening to heavy metal, it was always a blissful sweet symphony of beauty !!
For me, it was always so soft, and wonderful, so welcoming, and Magical !! I feel so sorry for the humans that have no capability to ever understand the beauty of real heavy metal music, because heavy metal has so many beautiful Spiritual messages from the infinite Universe that the blind ego-based mind of duality is afraid to see, and afraid to understand.
Mother Ayahuasca showed me in infinite ways how Heavy Metal music was so vital and so beautiful in so many magical ways for my Spiritual growth. And this magical band of beauty, Blind Guardian, was absolutely Massive and monumental for my Spiritual journey of the Universe of be-ing and infinite truths of beauty of Light and Spirit. ;-) .. Mother Ayahuasca showed me how my Soul always chose the right bands and the right music, far beyond my mind. Intuitively I knew it all along... but my goodness Mother Ayahuasca showed me so many deep Spiritual truths in deeper ways of infinite understandings of Spirit, that the blind ego-mind that lives in the illusion of time and the illusions of duality, is totally incapable of understanding..
80's, best years ever!!! Quiet Riot, great musicians!!! Rip Kevin DuBrow, great frontman! Regards from Italy
RIP leyend
Carlos Cavazo is ripping it up on this!! Always thought he was severely under-rated. He absolutely kicks ass.
Several hundred thousand fans and no cell phones!
Whoo hoo!!
I'm in that mob. By the end of Sunday, I was a committed metalhead.
SeVeRaL hUnDrEd ThOuSaNd FaNs AnD nO cEll PhOnEs!
@@Urnm-jy4bg I think your comment proves why he, along with so many others, feel that way. Going to a concert now has no feel anymore. Everyone looking at their phones or watching through their phones recording the concert. You must be a millennial!!!
I want to toss this phone but one problem it has far too much metal for my health.
Back then music had so much talent, stage presence, and energy you don't see much of that in todays crap!
2 dayz. Music aint worth listenin 2.it is pure garbage.
@@thomasbonner5572 what damn music?! Lol!!
Totally agree. It's crap now.
Yes some good bands in the 80s but ffs some of the most god awful dribble came from the 80s .
@Lone Ranger they did all of the above though. Popular music is really just a sign of the times. Physically most people are living in the most peaceful times mankind has ever experienced, but mentally those who live easily are not. I think technology is taking its toll on humanity. Maybe I'm just thinking too deeply, but the type of music that we get today that becomes popular is usually very hollow and egotistical I.E. boasting about something. I feel like before the internet and social media became huge we were much more intelligent.
This is one of the classic songs that defined the 80s metal scene. An icon....
A very Metal Happy 64th Birthday Carlos Cavazo..07/08/57 Atlanta Georgia. You are and always be Quiet Riot..
That bass!
Victor C., upside down, even...
Hell yeah! Rudy Sarzo was/is fucking awesome!!👍🏽😎
You should check out Rudy Sarzo's signature bass of today... reverb.com/item/29830595-spector-euro4lx-rs-rudy-sarzo-signature-model-sims-pickups-24-fret-access-9-7-pounds-nb15622
well, hell! When you play with the likes of Ozzy Osbourne, Ronnie James Dio, Whitesnake, you have to wear pretty big-assed shoes, because if you ain't good, your career is shit.
Quiet Riot opened so many doors for metal bands in America. I consider Kevin Dubrow one of the great vocalists of all time, and I only realized this after watching him in the Hear N Aid documentary - Amazing singer
They were arguably the biggest band in the land at this time. Their album, released in '83, was the first by a 'metal' band to go #1.
LOl, really? Metallica/ACDC/Iron Madien/Megadeth/Ozzy They were a one hit album band that died quickly.
@@BlackAria1974 notice I said "at this time". QR didn't have the same longevity but none of the bands you mentioned had a #1 album in 1983.
Possibly the BEST band from that original group of LA Strip bands as well. It's either them or Ratt. Later in the decade GnR came along and took the crown but the initial explosion of bands, they are neck and neck with Ratt for being the best all around BAND.
@@stevee231 Nah that would be van Halen
@bls8959 Halen is boring. Quiet riot could rock until the wheels fell off and keep going. Halen is too pop not enough metal
That's when people went to concerts and watched it and loved it the 80s was the best
@Joe Kirk 80 music is. The. Best
this album was awesome. i played the hell out of it back in the day!
Hell I still play the f out of it.
Hey welcome to the old folks home......we should be roomys!!!!
Excellent album!
@@LDLutes-tu4yo Not only old people listen to QR. I am 24
back in the day........well i was young too
I'll never forget the first time I heard them on the radio back in "83 ..I was blown away by their sound.. 32yrs later I'm still banging heads with them . I'm very fortunate to be in their new documentary "Well now your here , there's no way back !!! I had the opportunity to meet the late great "Kevin Dubrow " RIP .... And to become buds with Frankie Banali #awesome
tom Dilbert And you know good music ?? You must be the one on drugs Tom DILWEED !!! Your shit won't be around in 30yrs .. Trust me !!!!
ironpurle1 .... No doubt bro. He's so wrong. Keep rocking.... Jesus is Lord. Jesus rocks to
@@lesliethompson4039 Yes He does!
Jr High walking home from school with 3 friends carrying a boombox with this playing in the cassette deck.
Such a great performance, the band was on fire.
kevin Dubrow, we miss you a lot :(
No Cell phones!! everybody just rocking in the moment!! Good Times!!💯
Fuck yeah! 80's metal FOREVER!
My introduction to Metal. RIP Kevin, and today Frankie 😔
That voice so great!
Q fota é essa kkkl
This is one of my favourite rock songs in my mind it never dates still excites me 40yrs on.
It’s got to be rough to work the clubs for years, finally get a record deal, a hit song or two, a number 1 album on the charts and then your hair falls out.
And then die of a cocaine overdose. He had a great voice though.
Bahahahaha damn
2022 y sigue sacudiendo el cráneo está canción 🎵🤘🏼
Esta canción estaba en el Metal Héro?
Yes. I was there!
I was there myself, great weekend
I wasnt there but doesn't look like I missed anything
Nothing will come close to 80’s metal and rock.
THIS IS MY GENERATION! AND WE WERE ROCKED BY THE GODS! AND WE DROVE POWER MACHINES! AND WE FLEW WITH OUT SAFTY NETS! AND WE KICKED ASS! GEN X FOREVER!
I can attest as a bass player rudy playing the bass up side down is a real feat of musicianship.
He's great.
@@colico14 He is, one of the greats. Met him in Idaho when Quiet Riot played my own. Rudy was not in the band but was playing bass with the singer of great white's band. QR invited Rudy for a song or two tho.
Legendary
You know I never knew that. Maybe that explains that super unique and recognizable tone he always had. I always know its him on a recording just from the sound of his bass.
You are the expert
This is my favorite song of all time. Even though later in life the blues is my favorite genre, I can not help but to go back to my childhood and turn up the volume to this song.
Mine too
Sounds good still not the Steve Tyler I know or this is live better if seen in person 🙄 send me tickets then I will decide
This' what you can call a showman!
Raising a crowd like that is harder than peolpe think.
Someone et76vh7h8h7uijkg k ioojob jl j go yh HSN 0
Dessari Hardeman Agreed.
Yeah, not as easy as they make it look. Masters of the art really.
OMG I want to play bass like that all the time......sick!
nunca dejaré de escuchar esta canción, nunca, hasta el día de mi muerte.
carlos ramirez hi. sigues vivo?
carlos ramirez chido mi Carlos
🎸🤘Yo también! 🤘🎸👏
1:17 una pregunta ese es randy rodhes?
@@wtfed9262 No
Carlos Cavazos guitar, ,phenomenal, ,,,
Yep. Superb. 🤘🤘
And sorry to say, the last surviving member of the band.🤘🤘🤘
@@deerski4426 Oh my dude, you forgot Rudy Sarzo existed for a minute there(he’s QR’s og bassist... he and Randy Rhoads were like brothers, RIP Randy, Butch and Frankie.... you’re probably all waiting on him to join you guys up in rock n roll heaven).
@@dragonqueen6589 👍🤘
carlos sounds like 2 rhythms and 2 lead guitars how?
just bought the vintage cassette today. RIP Mr. Dubrow. Your music lives on in 2018!
Carlos frigging kills it, always.
Possibly the greatest outdoor festival ever!!!
I was there!
Fantastic musicians . The guitarrist , the best
R.I.P Randy, you were good, real good, maybe even the best, also my greatest inspiration for learning to play the guitar.
When music was ACTUALLY music. HELL YA
This music is for always; you don't have to ask..."Who is listening to this in...?" There ain't farewells for what you really love.
Sarzo is the all time boss on bass when live.
Jason Newsted.
@@Calbenmike Lol Geddy Lee, Steve Harris, Les Claypool, Chris Squire, John Entwistle to name a few.
Daughters account. It's just nice listening 🎶 to a band with true raw talent 👌 unlike alot of shit nowadays
This is how to Rock it,I really like this song alot!!!! Played it Loud n Proud on my radio. Your Biggest fan from Pasadena, CA 😎 Awesome Band,they kicked a$$!!!!
Wow they sounded great... wish I had a time machine....those days were the absolute best days of my life...
US FESTIVAL...man I wish I had a time machine to go back to this epic show..my parents wouldn’t let me go🥺 we will never see anything like that incredible 3 day show ever again.. those of you who went... respect for getting there and surviving the heat!
You were just there from a time machine called youtube....and you got better than front row seats
Just saw them two weeks ago for free and Frankie Banali signed my Metal Heath record,such a nice guy
This is best heavy metal song of all time. Change my mind. 😃
I was there in San Bernardino for all 3 days. It was so hot 🥵 but what a great time. Looking back to 1983 it was a long time ago, 22 yrs old but will not forget all the women, drugs and fun. I came upon this by accident. Pleasant surprise. Still Rockin and always will!
My band played this a million times back then.
Almost as much as they did.
1983 was great!
Bang your head!! Awesome song. Go Quiet Riot, I wish we had some music like this coming out now.
Great Song
Those days are long gone unfortunately.
It’s impossible to frown while listening to this song. They sound fantastic live! I was born in ‘80 and this song is engrained in my being. As far back as I can remember the adults around me were jamming metal. Thank God for that.
Banging my head at 15! Holy crap that's a crowd!
Kevin is missed big time, his place is forever cemented. My heart aches for Frankie, you can feel his love for his good friend. Bonds like that can't be broken however, it lives on.
I love the 80’s and 90’s metal more then the newer stuff
I wish we had concert footage like this of Ozzy and Randy Rhoads
HELL FUCKING YEAH!!!
Saw the original lineup in Texas, a long time ago.
wirikuta14 Me too, in McAllen, Texas.
HELL FUCKING YEAHHH!!
wirikuta14 Did you just respond to yourself?
+Buck Rogers roflmfao
This live sound music so good and clear👍
Como 10 años que no veía ni escuchaba a estos weyes! I

I come here again today to keep from going crazy ..acdc fan here ...luv this song
Damn...that’s really good!
I remember buying that album when I was like 12!
When I was young I listened this song and I was fan this band!!! It's cool!!! 🤘🤘🤘
I've been a fan of heavy metal for over 50yrs and my thrill from hearing it as never wained , long live metal music and groups like these.
I remember drivng across the country to Baltimore from L.A. and heard this song for the first time. Love it!
❤️🔥that opening scream!
Great song,i have 14 years ago,is crazy,the better era,80s congrats bro for upper and ty
Carlos, simply overlooked and underappreciated for this era of guitarists.
I saw them in Louisville KY Dec 9 1983. 40 years seems like 4 years.
Aún no nacía...... mierda estuvo genial aquellos años donde se hacía buena música
Frankie rocked and will always rock! Thanks for all!
This was really the only song that anybody wanted to hear from them. This was the best part of their show.
I LOVE INFORMING PEOPLE OF THE IMPORTANCE OF THIS GEM!!!!!!
R.I.P.🕊 FRANKIE BANALI .......... Thank You for The Music and talent you left to us!!! May You Rest In Paradise!!! Thanks So Much!!! PEACE🕊
BEST LINE UP EVER....
Keep rocking out to this group
Never gets old. Thanks for the memories Kevin and crew!
Que arrecho fueron esos espectaculares años 80s y estas super bandas del heavy
One of the great '80's acts!
That bassist OMG😬😮
It's so marvelous!! They make me smile out of astonishment
2020 amando essa música como fosse um lançamento....
Such a good bass player!!!
an epic song
Fantastic album and band
I remember buying this tape when I was a kid...this song was huge when it came out....and damn these guys sounded crazy good live..
R.I.P Frankie Banali. You will be missed
This band saved rock and roll. Music was fun back then. Randy Rhoades.
Spelling
Goddamn Dubrow sounds JUST like the album here... and this was the last song of the set, to boot! If he was tired at all, he sure wasn't showing it in the slightest.
Rest in POWER, my man.
Motley and Quiet Riot were my first 2 and forever favorites!!❤️✌🏻
