Seems like a little man-crush going on there.

There was a lot of faces I didn't recognize in the video, and I can think of at least 10 off the top of my head that are NOT on the video. Only black guy I knew was Jimmy Hendricks. I recognized one of the white guys with the beard, but can't place his name.


BTW - Lets' not get this thread locked

I didn't know there were any Quiet Riot albums put out past, like, 1990 and that article says they released one in '06. They never really did anything worth hearing after the first album. Seems like they lost their voice after the first two songs on the first album and it got worse thereafter. "Cum On Feel the Noize" was a cover song by Slade and they did another Slade song "Mama Were All Crazee Now" which were more popular than most of their original stuff. I'm sure they some other Slade songs but I lost interest in them after the second album. They had all the ingredients for a memorable band but somehow the effort just didn't come together IMO.

These guys played and lived hard. Now they are in their 50's and its going to start catching up with many of them.

That was a bummer to hear. Always liked QR. Brings back some fun teen memories of back in the day!  QR may very well be the first metal band to tip the industry on its ear and get mainstream radio play! That album was hot for many many months when it came out! MTV was in its beginning stages. Good times!

I agree with bull their 2nd lp was crap i only really know them for "cum on feel the noise" "mama were all crazee now"and "bang your head" it sucks that he's dead though. oh, and "scream and shout" wasnt bad iether.

Seems hard to believe that somebody like that was already 52 years old.  Time flies. 


Bands like QR absolutely defined youth & recklessness to me. 
It's just hard to get my mind around how much time has already gone by since their heyday.

  Sad really. Quiet Riot is one of my favorites.
