Being a musician and retired medical specialist your wrists just don't snap. So that's just an excuse! He's a quitter....plain and simple. This band had doors open up made excuses for family problems, band breaks up? They must of been one of the children that cried when they were children, this band had the looks and the talent and they just fucking gave up! There's been lots of outstanding bands just couldn't hang.

I had the pleasure of seeing RATT at the old Capitol Center in Landover MD. Poison opened and CC Deville definitely played a great show, he was the king of arpeggios for sure. Warren D came out and played exactly what I needed to hear and how the guitar is meant to be played.

In the world of hard rock and metal, we always here the names of Eddie, Randy, Satch, Vai, Lynch, Yngwie, etc and they all deserve their notoriety. Tipton and Downing never quite seem to get their just due. Being a band that helped shape the sound of metal, we always here about Sabbath, Maiden, Metallica but I can almost guarantee that when you ask any professional metal musician who is the prototype metal band that 99% of them will say Judas Priest.

Hey thanks for a great and very insightful video post on the REO legend that was Gary Richrath - top drawer! 👍🌟. I got into REO in a big way after the "Tuna Fish" album, and to this day, Hi Infidelity still rocks my world ❤️. Also enjoyed Good Trouble and Wheels are Turning. So sad to hear of Gary's death in 2015 - gone way too early. Still gutted! RIP Gary Gone, but never forgotten 🙏

I hope Chris knows the impact he had. In the '80s, others could shred, but his song-writing, chord progressions and arpeggios were always more mature than that. For me, all of that still stands tall all these years later. Little since has spoken to me in the same way. It's sad we missed more of that creativity but I admire him as a bloke for knowing it was right for him to step away.

Back when I saw Priest in the 80’s alongside the Scorpions, MSG etc. these bands came under rock/metal. Then came the thrash metal bands like Metallica, Slayer and the like which kind of became Metal, meaning fast chugging rock, a completely different kind of music IMO. I don’t think of Glenn Tipton as a metal guitarist, his best playing was all the albums up to Point of Entry, which is much more rooted in blues influenced rock and roll/heavy rock. Nothing like modern metal like Slipknot etc. Anyway, nice tribute and it’s well deserved.
