Has anyone ever noticed that it has some of Ogre Battle by Queen influence in it? Kelly used to talk about him and Randy listening to Queen when they were growing up.

Im glad you posted that. I had noticed the similarities too. I remember years ago hearing a spot light solo from the quiet riot era, and then hearing brighton rock by queen. That had similarities too..

Yes I've thought the same thing. Kelle used to say he and randy also loved the first Boston album. I cannot hear any influence there really, maybe just some vibratos during leads but I always associated that with Schenker's influence on Randy.
I went ahead and rode the white horse
