"RATT'S RAISE TO fame and presumably fortune was meteoric.
Kicking around Southern California in various forms since the
mid 70's the band fully gelled in 1981, with the independent
release of a well received debut mini album, which quickly led
to a coveted recording contract with label giant Atlantic
Records. Their debut album 'Out Of The Cellar' exploded out of
the box ultimately reaching sales in excess of double
platinum. It was a level of success that few had predicted,
elevating the band to MTV regulars and selling out arena
tours. But it was a level of achievement that was not
increasing as further records saw the band maintaining rather
than expanding their profile. By the time of this album (their
fourth) interest was still high, but the stellar achievements
of the past were becoming a fast fading memory. 'Reach For The
Sky', originally released in late 1988 and produced in the
main by Mike Stone (Journey, Queen and Whitesnake), found the
band in familiar musical territory, a style based on big
hooks, shout-it-out-loud vocals and razor sharp riffs. It was
the sound of the times alright, and although performing well
(attaining Platinum status) the band were feeling the strain
of their work load. In fact it was the final album to feature
guitarist Robbin Crosby who would leave due to much publicised
personal problems." Special Deluxe Collector's Edition, fully
remastered Audio,16 page full colour booklet, 3,500 word
essay, enhanced artwork, rare photos and new interviews.
