I was listening to whatever was on the radio, usually at that time, Michael Jackson, Billy Idol, but I don't remember hearing a lot of stuff like RATT then. I do remember Warrant on the bus heading to school, someone else's big sister had the tape and he borrowed it. Sounded good then just like it does now.

      I was good looking back then and i'd often just start rubbing up against girls i met at work in the mall , if they showed the slightest attraction
      Life was very different then , you never worried about someone saying much , young girls would put their hands in my pockets. lots of physical interactions

      Indeed! I was 17 when this album came out, got to experience the best of the 1980's & 1990's music scenes. Music was everything to us back then. It was A LOT easier to meet bands back in the day, holy shit. No cell phones, what happened backstage, at the hotels, & on the buses stayed there. Magnificent time to be young. Things moved more slowly back then but people were more real with each other, up close and in person. You made plans & kept them. A rock show was a major event, where anything might happen. Not as commercialized & policed like today. Loved every minute.

      I'm blessed ! What an era for a teenager. All genre were blending without elitism, from early Bon Jovi, Def Leppard to Venom, Led Zeppelin to Anthrax, Saga to Heart back to some Destruction, Yes, Asia, Rush, Alan Parsons Project, Scorpions sprinkled with a bit of pop with Prince, Jackson, Movies' Soundtrack and with the remaining of Disco, Synth taking huge place, New Wave coming, Punk's Not Dead, the musical range was just wide open and cohabitating pretty well.
      Ages of naivety, innocence, playful, lots of social interactions, physical contacts and great parties.
      I'm pretty proud of what my tribe and myself had become. Being young adults in the 90's was great too. Carpe Diem !

    2:56 The way Warren rides those bends, and the phrase ends on that pickardy 3rd with the vibrato on it, man so cool and so very vocal sounding. Really making the lead part sing in the intro to that solo... And then it opens up to some nice shredding with those runs! With the chromaticism.. He plays almost like a jazz horn player would. He's a true musicians musician, the real deal. Not just a guitar God, he's got true chops. I always think Warren was their musical backbone, without a doubt.

    Opening riff inspired by Van Halen - Unchained: their most signature heavy riff utilizing Eddie's infamous "brown sound". Warren emulated it perfectly here and made it his own in the way only he could. Him and George Lynch loved playing outside the traditional blues box and added a lot of dissonance to their chords and solos. Both 80's masters of a totally different style of rock.

    • @JIMJAMSC

      I respected DeMartini because he could have easily went down the EVH clone path but didn't. He was technical, fast but not absurd and accurate. Each note was clean, chords had space. Could be wrong but I don't think he ever tapped. Also didn't ruffle any feathers and step outside his lane and become a "rock god".
