I had almost forgotten just how awesome this song and this band are! Me and my friends used to crank this up 33 years ago, and it still holds up today!
This first Tora Tora album was so damn good, and my buddies and I also rocked it since 1990. Even did a couple songs live in our cover band. I remember going to the mall the day the 2nd album came out, and being disappointed/disinterested in it as we jammed it in the car on the way back.
I remember all of a sudden seeing the 2nd album out in like 1992. It didnt quite have the vibe the first album had but at that time (grunge) I was happy just to have any decent rock coming out. The album still had some great songs on it @@joeblough261
I'm in my drum room rocking the neighborhood. My band rocked this badass in 90's. 60 years old, still kicking Tora Tora, Cinderella & all badass songs. Livewire by Motley Crue came up on song list, gotta jam! Neighborhood's not gonna like this house. I've been rocking the best since 4 years old.
i remember my dad who was 40 back when this came out, coming in the living room sitting down, watching this video with me, and he said "Dayum that fuckin' ROCKED!!!" XD Hell I thought he was gonna say "turn that off and go do your homework, dammit." I'll never forget that. Walkin' Shoes what a great Memphis Blues/Metal song!!!
Never underestimate a Dad. Mine took us to see Kiss and Judas Priest back in the day. His Mom took my sister to a Grateful Dead show. My mom actually got into Reggae. Good music bridges generational gaps
+Phoenix van der Weyden They were just kids too. Just a couple hundred miles from me when they were rocking the world. I thought they never received the recognition they deserved like a lot of bands. :-)
October 28, 1989...L.A. Guns, Dangerous Toys, Tora Tora at Hara Arena, Dayton, OH. Such an amazing show!! All three bands just tore it up that night!! :D This song takes me right back to that night.
My parents were huge fans of TT and went to a lot of their show starting when they were a local band. We saw Anthony (the singer) at the mid south fair in about ‘93 or ‘94 and he put me on his shoulders and walked me through the house of mirrors. Solid dude and underrated band. They deserved better
I grew up in Memphis as a teenager when these guys would play at the stage stop in north Memphis and let me tell ya these guys and another band LORD TRACY would turn that bar upside down. Great memories
Damn these guys kick ass. Never heard them till just now. I did a search and see they came out in the 80's and formed in Memphis, TN. Some serious R&R.
@@charlesrobertson6723 One of the best power ballads of all time!!!! We have it featured in our video of the most underrated ballads of all time on our TH-cam channel!
Not only hung around w these guys in high school was there the night anthony was tryn to name this band .......... was drinkn & smoking sum good ol skunk bud but looked down @ a vanhalen album laying on his bed @ said tora tora
@@wesleywilson9405 I had a gf in high school (Overton) that lived next door to a Wesley Wilson back in the late 80s. An apartment on Hickory Hill Rd, that you???
I bought this album when it first came out even though I had never heard of them. Album cover made me think they were rockers and boy, are they! I still rip the knob off the stereo whenever I play this, and I play it frequently still. Love all their albums.
i was in college in the 80s and i threw keg parties and played all these great bands as loud as the speakers could play! great times. great music. great memories
I bought this CD when I was in stationed in Okinawa Japan. Loved the CD and the follow on one Wild America. Still have both in my collection. Great blues metal tune. The guitar work is awesome.
I'm 52 now and when this song came out I was an EXTREMELY wild n crazy 23 years old with an unquenchable thirst for bad ass rock n roll and what a GLORIOUS time to be alive back then! This song took me back there again for a few minutes and I sure do miss this type of music. COME BACK ROCK N ROLL!!!! PLEEAAASE!!!! Music nowadays is boring and lame..... (yawn)
Best times of my life!! Great guys .. fun times with great friends!! The 80's rocked!!! None of the BS kids see or hear today!! Cops left us alone because we weren't out to hurt anybody AND we had respect, we just wanted to have fun and party .. and that we did!!! My kids 19 and 22 hear my stories and see my pics when I was 18/19 and they are always saying they wish they grew up in the 80's. Me too!!! My fav song is Phantom Rider and another great Memphis band and great guys were Thrust!!! Great memories
So many young people are like "I never heard of this or that great band".....do yourselves a favor, look up EVERY hard rock band that came out in the 87-89ish era. A lot of them only got 1 album due to the record companies jumping on grunge as the next big thing. (whatever) check for instance Salty Dog, The Scream
JohnProph Nice call on Salty Dog and The Scream. You must really know your 80's music. I got one for you... The Front, only one video on youtube - Le Motion
Oh man the Scream! I loved them, 1990 & 91 where weird time in metal, you could tell things where changing but not sure to what. Because at that time funk metal was getting radio play with bands like Mindfunk. I recall at the time I was listening to Love/Hate, Mordred & Soundgarden.
The great thing about being 47 is that I get to discover a lot of bands that were around in my day that I never knew of and rediscover those that memory had lost,today's generation missed a lot good stuff.I dont envy them one bit
No doubt!!!! In our book Soundtrack of Our Youth - History of Hair Metal, we list the top 1,000 songs and 350 albums from the genre! You should check it out on Amazon!
I was working in Greenland when this came out. A coworker went back to the US on vacation and went to a record store. He knew I was into hard rock/metal and asked one of the employees for some recommendations. Tora Tora was what he brought back. Loved it.
One night Anthony and I were in Neil's on Union Ave in memphis. After a fewer shots of Jaeger he got up with the band and flawlessly sang Baby i'm gonna leave you... and a few other Zepplin tunes.The guy was amazing.
Saw these guys with Dangerous Toys, and LA Guns up in Clifton Park NY during very late 80s or early 90s. They played a show in the brand new Clifton Park Ice Arena, a small rec rink. Needless to say the neighbors in nearby subdivisions (this is a bedroom community of nearby Albany NY) put an end to concerts at the venue. Great show, had an awesome time.
Hey now, Is this not one of the greatest rock videos EVER?! Absolutely ESSENTIAL lyrics. DROP DEAD GORGEOUS gal. Memphis Home of the Blues landscapes...and that cavalier attitude you can have when it's stick a fork in it/pack it up and go time. Yeah, That's ROCK & ROLL.
This song had a blues drive with just enough hard rock sound to make it so differnt from all the hair metal that was all over the radio and MTV Great song
Damn! Those were the days...Tora Tora and then later Home Made Flavor. I loved those guys so much.They still come and play every so often and I always make it a point to go see them.
This is the 1st song i ever heard you guys play in Memphis Tn. I still remember when you were called Free Beer.....hilarious.....good way to draw the crowd in the shows.\m/"Q"\m/
I’m 50 years old now, Tora Tora first got together when I was a teenager. I went to Kirby middle School in Memphis and on the weekends we would get together and get high and drunk listening to their music in their backyard. I’m proud of them still rocking today, keep it up!
If you grew up in 80's these are things you will always remeber. Ludwig drums, Ibanez guitars, Sony walkmans, Casette Tapes with a pullout inner jacket with pics, lyrics, etc... Kelly LaBrock, the Breakfast Club, Gi Joe, Pac-man, Mtv when it wasn't for posers. Jacket back patches, Hi-tops, Jams, Parachute pants.. ..........................
And state prison, and being locked up!...I am glad i missed this shit....actually its kind of fun....the 1970's were better. the 90's were better, stone temple pilots, and pearl jam were better....boogie shoes, k.c. and the sunshine were better.
I never really considered bands like this metal (not in the sense that I did Slayer, Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax, Grim Reaper, etc.) I just considered them the natural progression of what Rock n Roll evolved into from 1979 to 1989 when this came out.
Many, many years back I went to see these guys at McGuffys House of Draft in Dayton, OH. Restroom break and while I was preoccupied my then date decided to dance on the bar ... got us both booted out. Didn't get to hear the first note, nor the first word from the band. Just one of those 1989 bar nights. 🤷♂️
My cousin just died a few days ago, we were best friends. I'm sure he would be drinking a cold beer and looking down on me, making sure I was ok. This one's for you brother, rock on!
I always thought this band would have become bigger. Loved their bluesy rock vibe. And Anthony Corder's voice showed similarities to Robert Plant. I wish the music industry had supported them more at that time.
I've been living in Memphis for 7 years now. I worked at Rum Boogie Café and Blues Hall on Beale st. for 3 yrs. While watching a DVD box set I have , I realized that this was recorded in Blues Hall! Blew my mind. I don't know who the blues guy is. I play Rock guitar and since moving here have been learning to play blues. There are a lot of open blues jams here. Been having a lot of fun!
When I was in high school I never watched tv, but one night as I was headed out the door, Entertainment Tonight was on and they sometimes ended the show with a current hit single (I think, will explain later). The announcer that night said, "we usually end the show with the #1 song in the country, but tonight we're playing #100." Then they aired this video. I don't know why they did it, but I became an instant fan.
Seen these guys at a club in Indianapolis, called Backstage it was on the westside cant remember the year for sure but I would say 91,or 92,totally rocked the place
If you want to talk criminally underrated, those band got the shaft probably harder than most. Such amazing talent out of the gate. Years ahead of their time. But time is fickle. And they came out at the wrong one. They could have rivaled some of the greats. Jovi, crue, others. They were skilled and talented beyond their years. Such a shame. To imagine what, if given a chance they could have been. Because everything rhey made was gold. Every person in that band was perfect. Just too late. But I'll always be a fan. Rock on boys. Ya did an amazing job🤘
@bluelivesmatter719 that's a good catch. They are, younger and Maybe not quite up to tesla, but I love em all the same. Tesla is hard to beat. They are my top favorite band because they have stayed true the entire time and never wavered.
Me and my buddies was in Memphis and drunk as hell . We stopped at a bar and stumbled in... (I forget the name of the club) but I remember it was right off Summer Avenue down close to Raleigh/Egypt area...Tora Tora was on stage playing...the eighties was a great time to be alive !!! Had trouble finding my truck that night !
the girl in the video, was the model who also appear on fallen angel video of poison, tora tora was one of the best underrated bands in the mtv era....
These guys used to throw some great parties back in good ol' Collierville TN. They set up in some dude's barn and jammed every weekend to a bunch of people.
@jeffthrow6892 i knew these guys back in the 80's my friend amy dated Patric lead singer and they were so cool they played Mud Island one night and we had a blast i have to figure out how to email this to her. we went to Mollies La casita after the show and meet his parents. it was greart! I miss this music so mudh!! Thankz for keepin it alive!
Great song n a great band. As good today June of 2024 as it was when it was released!! We had some kickass music...
I had almost forgotten just how awesome this song and this band are! Me and my friends used to crank this up 33 years ago, and it still holds up today!
In my I hello opinion, the blues never go out of style?

Proud to say they're from my hometown...Memphis
Never underestimate a Dad. Mine took us to see Kiss and Judas Priest back in the day. His Mom took my sister to a Grateful Dead show. My mom actually got into Reggae. Good music bridges generational gaps
This song was so underrated!!! That’s some awesome guitar playing and singing!!
For some
Well, there you have it ... Vintage '89. Those times didn't suck.
absolutely did NOT! Miss this shit and those days
Its hard to accept that this is "vintage" now.
@@nathanritzo2228 Right? But whatever, it still rocks
what a party it was... fun!!!!!!!!
Times surely are sucking now!
I think this one must be from a magical time when bands had skills and music was fun
***** Band? now? do you mean digital sound effect machine operator?

How true! Good comment!

October 28, 1989...L.A. Guns, Dangerous Toys, Tora Tora at Hara Arena, Dayton, OH. Such an amazing show!! All three bands just tore it up that night!! :D This song takes me right back to that night.
I saw Cinderella, Winger, and the Bulletboys at Hara Arena around April or May of that year. Fun show. Loved those trifectas.
November '89Anaheim Ca. During the La guns cocked and loaded tour. The celebrity theater. My first rock concert at age 13! So many memories!
Dt is one of my all time favorites but I wish I could’ve been to that show
I saw the same tour but in Houston Tx. Great show I miss the '80's metal/hard rock concert scene. 🤘🤘
I was there! Good ole Hara. Best years of my life!
Phantom rider baby. Best song from these guys. Love this one to though.

so awsome im turning 50 soon and proud this song will always rock my heart,,,,,ifs too loud your to old ,,,,,crank it up!!!!
Jim Ringland right on, this tune stood out among all the hair metal tunes back then, especially the guitar solo...sweet metal
hell yeah!!1
***** The guitar solo is very cool!...but the lead vocals are really disgusting!!....
Oh so wrong.
I saw them sometime in the early 90s.. it was an excellent show but as most young adults do, I got Tora Tora up... Damn margaritas.. :p
My god this brings me back. TH-cam has everything ive ever wanted to see.
Couldn't agree with u more, I'm 55 and I never thought I'd be able to listen to any damn thing I want yrs ago when this music was young and so was I

Check out WIld America, too.

great party band, saw them once with about 150 people in a small bar... it was fucking awesome
same here.. awesome show until the margaritas hit and I got Tora Tora up.. lol
I bet that WAS a damn good time!
I saw these guys with the coal and Bonham in 1990 I was in love with Anthony corder.. this band..was really good
I saw them play in Memphis, TN before the first album. Great music even today. Songs bring me back to those rocking days.
This song had a blues drive with just enough hard rock sound to make it so differnt from all the hair metal that was all over the radio and MTV
Great song
Man, I wish I had a time machine.
Marti Veatch so true!!
Music IS the time machine!
You and me both. Bill and ted can we borrow that telephone booth.

Saw Tora Tora at the New Daisy in Memphis around 1990. So badass! Would love to see them again!
Tora Tora kicks ass and baby if you think that I still need you,you got AMNESIA
Loved these guys and I agree they should have blown up.

Highly recommend Surprise Attack and Wild America.
An amazing mix of glam+southern rock.
Awesome thats what rock bands DO is Jam out, they take the time to feel the music, whuda thunk

I saw them in like 1989 the opened for The Cult, and Bonham was on the bill to, needless to say it kicked ass.
Takes me back to clayton 1989 . Great days and great music-gone in the wink of an eye-way too soon.

Nothing like some Tora Tora to turn a good evening into a great evening!
Back in 84-85, they were a house band in a club in Memphis, loved them then, and seen them several times in California as well.
I saw these guys open for the Cult.. They rocked live..
Me and my buddies was in Memphis and drunk as hell . We stopped at a bar and stumbled in... (I forget the name of the club) but I remember it was right off Summer Avenue down close to Raleigh/Egypt area...Tora Tora was on stage playing...the eighties was a great time to be alive !!! Had trouble finding my truck that night !
the girl in the video, was the model who also appear on fallen angel video of poison, tora tora was one of the best underrated bands in the mtv era....
Fact: She was not ,she was in other music videos, but she is flattered #workswithher
@@skyerose21 30 years and she still takes my breath away

These guys used to throw some great parties back in good ol' Collierville TN. They set up in some dude's barn and jammed every weekend to a bunch of people.
