RIP Mark Reale

[synergetic4d]

I bet those guys had Physical Graffiti on the turntable constantly

[alnessang]

The music world has lost a true talent.

Rest in peace, Mark. You were taken from us way too soon.

I remember thinking this was a band from Japan because we only found them in the Import section....from Japan. Funny to find out they were from NYC (we were in PA). "Narita" & "Fire Down Under" are flawless...as is "Restless Breed". I'll be listening to them as long as I'm still breathing Oxygen. This video is a gem! RIP Mark, Guy & Rhett!

This was the first band I ever saw in a large arena. I saw them in September of 1979 at the old Hemisfair Arena, San Antonio, Texas, opening for Molly Hatchett and AC/DC (with Bon Scott) on the HIGHWAY TO HELL TOUR!!

[BadAndyEd]

Awesome!

ガイ・スペランザがサイババに見えた

[yak45900]

Those first 3 Riot albums are killer. This tune kinda reminds me of the first Moxy album.

[amorfesis]

Who is this, Mars Volta?

[dynaco25]

OVERDRIVE is what we need more of. the days of Gain are on the downslide. CLEAN and mean is in. Practice up.

I remember seeing this on TV when I was little back in 77 or 78 in Japan. This was to promote their never to happen Japan Tour....which they finally came in the late 80s without Guy Speranza of course. what a shame

Classic les paul sound. I really miss this kind of rock music...just straight forward in your face guitar rock!! I saw these guys in 1977 in Binghamton NY as part of an outdoor show that had Sanford Townsend Band, Heart, and Journey. Great show.
