- This was so much fun, introducing Alexis to one of my favorite bands and memories. Metal Health from Quiet Riot was so important to the metal music scene. It was the first metal album to hit number 1 on the Billboard album chart. I also share some great photos of the band in this video. We hope you enjoy. Thank you @QuietRiotVEVO for the memories.

What a flashback. QR were everywhere when this album came out. There was something special/unique about this group. RIP Randy, Kevin, and Frankie.
Slick Black Cadillac!
Now we’re talking. Some of the best of the older rock/metal classics.
I'm feeling old with that "classic" reference 😂
lol I wasn’t implying anyone is old. My parents introduced me to a huge genre of music from Beatles, Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Bob Seger, Dokken, Pink Floyd to metal. This came out in the 80’s but we were listening to it in college 92-96
I am old and not ashamed a freaking clasic@tamerapagett6230
I told ya'll, it's going to be great year 🤣 🤘
You can't beat metal from the 80's/90's, grew up with this music and it is still good today! Cheers
I was fortunate to be born at a time that I was a teenager in the 80's. The best decade for metal music.
Metal Health is like an anthem. I remember this song, and I remember it feeling like a release. Just screaming it out loud and feeling so much better. Nice call out on Thunderbird, such an underrated song.
Carlos Cavazos was a criminally underrated guitarist,
Heartily agree
I agree 💯
Era puertorriqueño?
@@thir671El es Mexico Amercano !😊
@thir671 sorry l meant to say Mexican American !😊
This whole album is awesome! Bought it when it came out.
..........
and played it over and over and over....
🤘🤘🤘
So, in other words, your old like me 😂
@@ctcanine maybe older, 25 when it came out.
Same here, and I've still got that vinyl. In fact I think I have 2 copies.
@@vernhoke7730 lol…yeah a bit, I was 16 or 17
The t shirt art was on a different level!!! Back then!!! From Iron Maiden “ Eddie “ to def leopard. People still wearing them today.
How much merch we use to buy back then as teens from posters to concert tickets and tour shirts
The concert Ts is what created the graphics T collector demon in me. My older teenage daughter raids my closet for my concert Ts then brags to people they’re the real deal not just off the rack kiosk specials. She’s so funny some times
That bass line from Sarzo... man... soooo good... love this record and track so much... with you on the live version, it was amazing...
Chuck Wright did the bass on the Metal Health song …
@@deebedwell580 Yeah good call, also on "Don't Wanna Let You Go". I just saw them enough times live back then I see Sarzo in my head, heh. I saw Chuck with House of Lords in the late 80s, he was great live as well.
in 1983 i was a sophomore in high school when this song came out and played this as loud as i could in my car.
I saw them at the US Festival in '83. What a wild experience. 🤘
whoa!
How far back in the crowd were you?
This was the jam when it came out! Hit like wild fire and was played over and over on the air waves...good stuff, thank you. FUN FACT: The lead singer Kevin Dubrow's brother Dr. Terry Dubrow is a plastic surgeon you may have seen on the TV show "Botched".
I seen Quiet riot with Foghat and Rush back in 1984, just amazing.
Was Rush the headliner?
damn, listened to their songs over and over, Party all night, Cum on feel the noize, the wild and the young, Twilight hotel (best ballad ever) ; they had some kind of musicality, it was precise and soft but still hard rock
That songs an absolute Time Machine! Takes me back to school back of the bus rocking out! Songs as good now as it was then! I don’t know how you can watch that song without bobbing your head Alexis🤣
Yes! By far best song. This song always got me fired up.
Thanks Guys! I'm older than Burch, but this song/album is fantastic. I saw them live at "the Boogie" Midwest biker fest years ago. Good memories!
I got that these were the more famous songs but my favorite from Quiet Riot was Mama We’re All Crazy Now. Great show.
Great choice, Mama We’re All Crazy Now is in my top 3 QR songs. I keep going back and forth with Condition Critical and Sign of the Times as my favorite.
Or as alternative play original Mama We’er all crazy now by Slade
Awe snap now we’re getting 80’s! Kevin Dubrow had one of the best voices of the 80s. Hands down.
Timeless classic. If you haven't yet, I hope you two cover Helix's Rock You sometime.
Randy and Kelley Garni formed the genesis of what became Quiet Riot after Kevin and Drew Forsyth joined.
…and then Kelley pulled a gun on his friend Randy, and me was kicked out of the band.
Drew Forsyth was my neighbor, his garage was padded for his drum kit. From the age of 5 in '73 I got to see him, Randy and the others practice.
This album changed my life. I was handed this cassette and everything changed. I'll never forget. I was also 13 and I was in Canada with my family and I was told take a listen to this. I bought it as soon as I got back home!
Everyone praises Brad Gillis for being the perfect person to fill in for Randy when he passed, but no one talks about Carlos Cavazo when he took over for Randy in QR. Carlos was and still is a beast on guitar. As well as Brad G.
Don't forget jake!
This is one of the songs that was played and rewound so much in my car tape deck that it started sounding like shit as the tape wore out. 🤘🤘
Was 16 and drinking partying on the weekends loved the 60’s70s80s and some 90s music ❤️💯👍
Saw them open for Iron Maiden on the Piece of Mind tour in '83, one of the best openers ever 🤘 and don't forget Rudy also played for Ozzy, I remember him on Mtv's Speak of the Devil Saturday night concert.
My 1st album when I was 7yrs old!! Never gets old to me, I know this album front to back not a bad track on it.
Definitely one of my first metal bands, back when I knew nothing about music and picked stuff based on the cover art alone.
Metal Health is one of those rare albums that is good top to bottom. All killer, no filler. Every song is great.
This was my very first album which started my music collection. I was also 13 years old and in grade 8 when it came out. It was definitely changed my life!!!
Randy was the founding member of Quiet Riot, it was his band. He really struggled with if he should leave to join Ozzy. The final push was his mom, Delores, telling Randy that joining Ozzy was a once in a lifetime opportunity. You should think about doing the "Laughing Gas" live footage video. It's the best footage of Randy playing we have.
I remember being in 4th grade and they sold this album cover folder for the Trapper Keeper. No one now will understand how crazy this sounded in 1984. It's how they will play Metallica on an oldy station now. It took 20 years for that to happen. So for someone today imagine you were transported in time 20 years and have your mind blown by the music You hear played on the radio. It's like us hearing Jimmy Hendrix after hearing Stevie Ray Vaughan and thinking yah he's ok. Jimmy Hendrix blew their minds decades prior.
Now we're talkin' business.... this brings back memories indeed. Burch, we're pretty close in age and like you, I remember when these guys hit like a punch from Ali. Keep up the good work.
I was 11 when this came out. It was what started it all for me. Before this song and album, I was just casually hearing music at the skating rink, like REO Speedwagon, Joan Jett, J. Geil's Band, and like them but not to the point of talking about them or buying albums. This album.......woke....me....up! I was a metalhead from then on.
It is true this song was revolutionary.
So many of these songs bring me back to my teens and my Walkman and riding my bike all around without a care in the world. Quiet Riot was AMAZING and these songs remind me when Metal/Heavy Rock was king. All over MTV and the radios. Great times! Thank you for taking me down memory lane with each video. You 2 are really something special.
btw...anyone else STILL air drumming to these songs? hahahaha
I remember watching them on Countdown. Australian rock show on tv. Went out the next day and purchased the album.
I grew up on the sunset strip back in 78-80. I meet all the members of Quiet Riot when Randy Rhoads played with them. I'm 61 now and wouldn't change a thing! I lived in Los Angeles and didn't miss nothing! I lived on the sunset strip! metal head for life!
i saw them in early 2000s at a small 300 seat club and they played like it was a stadium or festival and the band stayed after the show for a meet and greet as well-great attitude and super professional
In high school (class of '88) i listened to country music almost exclusively. I was kind of a nerd. This was a time before Garth Brooks and country became cool to listen to again. Any ways, I discovered all these great bands past their primes. But love them non the less. I was able to see Quiet Riot about a year or two before Kevin left us. It was on one of the VH-1 retro tours. I think it was Quiet Riot, Cinderella, Ratt, and another band or two. Quiet Riot and Cinderella were fantastic. So glad I got to see Kevin perform live.
Hats off to Rudy Sarzo and Carlos Cavazo, who are still going. Kevin DuBrow went out in Heavy Metal fashion. RIP Great album.
I was listening to this record earlier today. Then saw your video suggested on TH-cam and you mentioned Tsunami Beach Club in Sanford! I live just on the other side of Lake Monroe. I remember seeing many bands there when they hosted one of the earlier Earth Day Birthday concerts in their parking lot back in the mid 90s. 🤘🏼
Ohh the memories. As a preteen- teen boy, those early 80s LA metal bands rocked our world.
I grew up with these heavy metal classic in the 80's the best times of my life enjoyed every moment growing up!with these music 🎶
This was one of my all time favorite bands. Still blow the speakers out every chance i get with this song.
I love mostly everything about the 80's. I was too young to enjoy the music and nightlife. My memories from the 80's are shows & movies I'd watch and toys I'd play with. The only music I'd be aware of was in shows & movies.
I was 1s when this album came out. My mother and a few other mothers, took 8 of us all between 11-13 to see these guys. 1983 Charleston, WV. I believe the opening acts were Girls School and Saga. My first ever concert and it was with my mom. LOL
For me it was 70's for rock as the best and the 80's for metal. Metal for me in the 80's was mainly Maiden, Priest, Metallica, Metal Church, Ozzy, Scorpions, Testament, Slayer, Exodus and the like. I was 16 when this came out. I lucked out when I was born.
This flew high on the charts, when I started my career as a Metalhead. Quiet Riot never had a really good album, but a bunch of wonderful songs scattered on various albums. Kevin Dubrow at his prime was a wonderful singer. Great memories.
They were great and then Kevin starting shooting off his big mouth about other bands, pissing off the whole hard rock and metal community!! After that they kind of went downhill while Metallica was getting major attention when Master Of Puppets came out in 1986. And then Guns and Roses came out and QR started sinking like a boat anchor.
My brother played bass in a country band in the 80s. When this song came out they added it to the set list just for the kids that got drug out to wedding receptions by their parents. When they would play this the lead singer would leave the stage and the drummer would sing, but my brother on bass would wear a welders face shield!
Loved this!! Burch you are talking about how cool it was to be 13 and turning on to these guys. Well I was 14 when I saw my first concert, Led Zeppelin in 78’..
I know how you feel!!!
10 years old and the first album I ever bought!
And speaking of Randy Rhodes… his father and stepmother, were my music teachers in middle school, and I listen to the blizzard of Oz six months before it was released
I was in Jr. High when this band and this album hit ( Burch we are getting old! 😆). They were touring and to promote their album they were at a record shop at the mall near my school on the afternoon before their show. My best friend and I walked over after school and got in line to meet the band and get autographs. I still have the album, and the autographs. Thanks for bringing back good memories with your reaction.
I was 16 or 17 when this came out and remember it very clearly…… just a great song
I got to see Quiet Riot in the summer of 84 with The Scorpions in Toronto, Canada I was 16 when this album dropped in 83.
Unofficial Hymne on the parking lot at the famous "Bang Your Head" Festival in Balingen, Germany!!!! Legendary!!!
OG Metal band. Takes me back.
The first heavy metal album to reach Billboard #1. It opened the floodgates for me to enjoy my future headbanging days. (nods)
Saw them at a small venue in mid 90' and met the band. Incredible show!
The band Emphatic does a great cover of this song.
Probably the first metal album I ever had. My dad had an old floor model record/8 track player in the family room of the house. I listened to this album so much at the time, and then my dad bought Black Sabbath's Heaven and Hell and I was hooked on metal.
This was the first cassette I ever owned. Got it for Xmas along with a walkman.
This brings me back to sitting in the back of the school bus with this playing on someone's boom box. When I heard it I knew my life was about to change.
Ist band that got me loving 80's metal The character’s mask and leather straightjacket were also crucial in shifting a focus away from machismo and satanism in mainstream metal and onto mental illness. Iron Mask was a relatable reminder that in the eyes of the world, every outsider is a lunatic.The music video was great when it came on MTV.The bassist Rudy Sarzo played Ozzy Osbourne 1981-1982.
Thanks for making feel old since you said you were 13 at the time of this release. I saw them with Queensryche on this tour. R.I.P. to Kevin and Frankie.
Hey Guys! Happy New Year, and thanks so much for kicking things off with such a BANGER! Like you, Burch, I was a year behind you in age/school and when this came out I have a stepbrother six years older than me who's Dad lived in Bernardino, CA at that time. He moved back home to Augusta, GA to live with us, and he brought three cassette tapes with him 1) "Out of the Cellar" by RATT, 2) "Shout at the Devil" by Motley Crue, and 3) this one from Quiet Riot. Needless to say, I was hooked immediately and still listen to pretty much nothing but 80's glam/"hair" metal to this day (cannot stand most current music!).
Also, in the seventh grade I had three good friends who were putting a garage band together. One guy played drums, another played guitar and the third guy was going to sing but they didn't know anyone in school who played the bass. They asked me if I wanted to learn bass, join the band and play with them and I said, "Yeah, sure...why not?!?" We wound up entering our middle school's talent show during which we got to play "Smoke on the Water" by Deep Purple and this song in front of the whole school in the gym. Ahhhhh, the memories - those were THE DAYS!!! Rock on, and congrats Alexis on the baby 🙂
So distinctly remember when this came out. I was a sophomore in HS.
It was a game changer.
The actual album that steered me more towards the hard rock genre initially was KISS Alive II that came out when I was in 4th grade, I believe, and then the transition to hair metal was pretty much a given later on.
Big Qiet Riot fan back in the day
Had the target shirt...
Remembering of Carlos taking over from Randy Rhodes as lead guitarist...simpler magical times....enjoy
Turn her on to some Pink Floyd. Think she would love David Gilmour's gtr work. Happy New Year to both of you 🎉
I was around 10 the Halloween after this came out and my older brother's friend made the mask and got a straight jacket to wear for Halloween ... great memory! Saw a lot of bands live but never got to see these guys.
What is important to highlight is that Quiet Riot (QR) was formed by Randy Rhoads and Kelly Garni. It is important to highlight the deepcuts of QR, the "Randy Rhoads" years. Some deepcuts are: "Laughing Gas", "Force of Habbit", "Trouble" and "Look in Any Window".
Talking about the LA Metal scene, "The Decline of Western Civilization Part 2: The Metal Years", was a great, fun representation of the LA Metal scene.
I'm listening to this 40 years after I bought the album and I still can't keep from banging my head with the beat. I'm 19 again, wearing a blue denim vest over a white T-shirt.
That's staying power. (Or imprinting)
This album was the very first album I bought at 12 years old. Absolutely loved it! There are other great songs like Slick Black Cadillac and well every song! I hope you two will review SBC in a future review.
I saw them at a small venue in the late 90's as well. It was in a small club called McGuffy's. It was a great show.
Burch
We can't forget awesome Bass Riff from legendary Rudy Sarzo. Plus, Carlos Cavazo on guitars. Frankie Banali on drums, sadly, he in 2020. Rudy returned to Quiet Riot with new lineup currently touring. We also can't forget Randy Rhoads of Ozzy. He helped founded Quiet Riot. Kevin Dubrow was awesome! You know that his brother, Terry is a doctor, cosmetic plastic surgeon. I believe that Terry had to confirmed Kevin's body after his death in 2007.
From West Palm Beach, living in Nantucket now, uncle and grandparents moved to Leesburg in 79 , went to LHS in the MID 80'S , nice hearing you talk about the earlier days, loved it up there, people totally different attitudes coming from the city on the beach,to the " country ", 1st concert Maiden, Lakeland 84/85 , know exactly where the landing strip where R.R. passed, my uncle Head of the Emergency room Leesburg Regional,never asked the question, love the station, keep ROCKING
Loved this band in the 80s, my first concert was Quiet Riot and White Snake, at the LA Forum. It was awesome !!!
My friend and I used to go cruising Saturday nights downtown club strips in his black 1973 Dodge Charger 440 Six Pack power bulge slapstick auto playing this song (and other songs from this time) windows rolled down. Such great times! :)
Yay, Burch! Who knew a man his age could still blush! 😊
Got this album (cassette of course) and a Terry Bradshaw poster for my 8th birthday. Thanks mom and dad.
I remember this song when I was in middle school in 83 or 82 still rocks till this day great 👍 song
Memories of junior highschool, rolling into the parking lot in my Olds 442 with swivel seats and this blaring from the cassette player. Late for class....🤘
My First Concert "83...COBO Arena Detroit...Riot opened for Sabbath!!!! Awesome!!!
Really enjoyed the reaction. Hopefully, somewhere down the road you'll react to The Wild and the Young.
I was 20 in 83. So I grew up right smack in middle of this onslaught. Ratt etc... my first concert was Black Sabbath at old met stadium Bloomington, Mn. Born again tour. Quiet riot opened.
The song gets my head bangin! Love the channel!
One of the first cassettes I ever bought. I wore that cassette out.
First cassette I ever owned. Such a great album.
I have this album. Can't say it's in new condition as I played it a LOT for a few year period
Teach'em while they are young. Metal Health was the album that brought metal to the masses, no longer just an underground sound. Randy was one of the co-founders and his legacy goes way beyond music.
This was my first metal album I got when I was 12. Still a favorite. 1:34
The song "Thunderbird" on that album was written by Kevin DuBrow about Randy Rhodes. The first part was written after Randy left to play with Ozzy and the second part was written after Randy died. Great song. You should do that one.
Drove my parents nuts with this song in the mid 80s every morning before school.
This album was my first cassette tape so long ago
Day before shipping off to boot camp at Fort Jackson, I attended a Quiet Riot concert at MSA in Indy. Was so hung over on the flight to South Carolina...but, totally worth it.
I'll bet the person she was thinking of was Brian Johnson from AC/DC since they are everywhere, even today, and its that higher pitched gritty vocals I think She is associating here.
This jam rocks hard!!
I am 65.....I was in a metal band when these guys came out....OH YEAH....we learned damn near the whole album....lol
The live version of this song at an outdoor festival is 👍🏻!!!!
