I've been listening to Ratt really loud today and I just love Warren Di Martini's playing. He was a monster and through in intricate fills... I'd love to see him get more recognition... or put out an instructional video so I could glean knowledge from him.

I have always loved Ratt. Their first four albums were amazing. Every single tune was just killer. They had an amazing songwriting ability. Every single tune was just LOADED with hooks.....tremendous band with so much talent. Great vocals. Great guitar playing from DeMartiti and Crosby. Great songs. GREAT BAND......
".....the moment Randy Rhoads walked out on stage, you knew you were WITNESSING something IMPORTANT."
I saw Ratt while I was stationed at Keesler AFB (Biloxi MS) back in early 1987. Great show. Bryan Adams opened for them. I even caught one of Robbin Crosby's guitar picks (I still have it).
Not only do i love the soloing DeMartini can pull off, but i love the riffage. Thats the turning point for me when i pump up that Ratt album. I mean, anyone can shred there face off, but not everyone can come up with some serious rhythm that makes you wanna move.
I also really love Stephen Pearcy's voice and aggression when he sings.
Great band!! should be a household name!
