hey man !! WTF !! of corse Ross is a great guitarrist !!! But logan and shankle are much technically better !!! thats a fact !! Jeahh Ross is pure and raw its a real rock n roll feeling !! but shankle and logan are fuckong fast ant brilliant sollo players !! i like all of them !! Triumph of steel its fuckin great man !!!!
Ross always says ' I play the RIGHT notes ,it could be 10 it could be ten thousand '
Dave or Karl will never come close to the
rawness and energy of Ross playing
Ross is the kind of ' no bullshit fx processors-guitarist - he just plugs straight in the Marshalls and plays
Ross IS METAL ,while keeping that RAW edge of ROCK'N'ROLL,that whole primary attitude and message of rebellion,which a lot of 'rock' or 'metal' musicians today forget about.
Well its our old friend Chthon128, where you been buddy? I can tell you the truth right from the source, He was asked to leave the band right before the release of Kings of Metal! no woman ever ruled that guys life I can guarantee you. Would you like to ask him yourself? Joey is incapable of the truth, like the lie thats out there saying he left to play punk rock with the Dictators.
He only started using ESP guitars in recent years. Before that it was primarily Gibson guitars. Where it says on his website that he uses ESP guitars and Marshall amps and needs nothing else useta read Gibson, Marshall and nothing else.
You manowar fans really dont know anything, ross was asked to leave manowar right after Kings of Metal got released, great timing huh? that record broke them in Europe and all the ground work was done. Has it gotten better than those first 6 records? there is NO arguement. No one kicks his ass
Ross has rarely publicly disputed the 'official' story from Manowar because it makes no difference to him what they say or do. As his webmaster I wrote the text on Ross' Official site as I understood the truth at the time of my writing. We are currently working on revisions to make the information on his web site more accurate.
Are you fucking serious? Nothing can compare to the raw savage power of tracks like Gloves Of Metal and Shellshock etc. NOTHING. Manowar are still a great band, and I have nothing but respect for everyone thats been in that band, and if you prefer their new stuff then thats cool, all respect to you, but to say that he hasnt done anything as good as Gods Of War? C'mon!
You're fucking dreaming. Manowar wouldn't kick out their original guitarist just before a major tour and take the chance on a completely untried newby on their own accord. What are you, a fucking Walmart cashier? You know nothing, fool.
Ross left the band for his fucking girlfriend is the way I heard it. He was pussy-whipped by a woman--the demise of many a great musician.
he left manowar cause he didnt think it was going anywhere.. he shouldnt be close to manowar, the ideals of manowar make the band. He deservres to be wehree he is, no second chance for this guy, kalr logan kill him anyways.
To be honest, with Ross, manowar wasn't going anywhere...and if he hadn't left it still wouldn't be. It was good for him and the rest of the band that he left.
I been on a Dictators kick lately. I got Bloodbrothers from a cutout bin in the early 80s and liked it. Now I like it like ten times more...funny that. Can't stop listening to them and Pink Fairies. MORE DICTATORS!!
Ross has been my guitar hero since 1975, & always will be. Everything but the kitchen sink, every time, in his melodic yet ass-kickingly-trashy style. His solos still make the hair on the back of my neck stand up.
Ross the Boss Rocks, but i like Karl Logan

@HSDABEL technically, yes. but shankle's solos lack heart while ross' are just awesome.
to me, ross was and always will be the best guitarist manowar ever had.
mrcr0wley1 1 year ago 2
I agree. In fact, shankle recorded with manowar their worst album: Triumph of Steel. I just hate Karl Logan. He sucks

corruptop is right
manowar, the spinatras, thunderboss, ross the boss, and all of ross's other bands and projects are good
but you cant beat the dictators
and if u like this, look up 'my world' by the spinatras. its one of ross's old prjects. you wont even find them on youtube. but theyre great

No he doesn't.
He plays what he can, Karl Logan plays very much things he can't play!
The best guitarist in Manowar by FAR is David Shankle BUT Ross The Boss has some sick solos in Manowar, listen to the Fighting The World album.
