Shakedown: Quiet Riot 1979

Post by RR-ElectricAngel »

I believe Shakedown is a demo from May 1979 with Rudy Sarzo playing bass. I never heard this song before so I thought I'd let you all hear it. Very cool song indeed...

If I remember correctly, I think Rudy actually wrote this, or played a big part in writing it.

Yes sir, you are correct. I went to RANDY PERRY'S archive and that is what it says. How cool is that.... :)

This is a great song. Nice and short, really catchy. I'm glad that Randy did his thing with Ozzy, but it would have been interesting to hear what he would have done if he stuck with QR. I haven't really listened to too much of his work with QR, but I think I'll dive deeper into the catalog.

well, I like the song. If Randy stayed with QR, he possibly could've been involved with making Metal Health. Cavuzo is great, but Randy would've made that album AMAZING!
