Badlands and Blue murder are the most underated bands of the 90s with. Two monster guitar players

[@warborn_inc.]

This band was hands down one of the greatest bands of the last 30 years!

[@dagrabill68]

never ceases to amaze me when in the middle of a guitar solo the camera switches to bass or drums.

[@justincase6151]

Greg Chaisson is a monster bass player. Listen to that tone. Locked in with the drums tight!

[@drmchld1]

I'd rather listen to this bad recording of Ray than just about any good recording of the other singers out there...he was simply...the best...RIP Sweet Ray!

[@joethebar1]

Greg chaisson said it best- Ray was the best singer of his generation. Those who know know. He just stood there and sang the living shit out of those songs. He was a true singer, not just a pretty face. Jake is a monster. When I heard this album back in 89, my jaw hit the floor when I heard Ray- I was a huge Coverdale fan. I knew this guy was something special

[@frankerwin5379]

that 1st album is a masterpiece

[@drummer7557]

It’s like watching Led Zeppelin Black Sabbath and Deep Purple in a different era. I was 14 then still my favorite band! No one sounded like this in 1989. They were the one and only 👍🏻

[@pattodd7784]

I wore the hell of the Badlands cassette in '89 to the point where I had to buy a second one.

[@CaptainBackFat]

Fuck, man. Everyone was amazing. I was at this show. I'm that old now. 😪 Between Jake and Ray, their live work was insane. Crazy part was that I saw Depeche Mode 3 days after. I've always been on the diverse side. 🍻

[@digitaldesigner5284]

Golden time of rock. Without Internet. No audience filming with smartphones. No artificial intelligence. Just pure rock energy.

[@malcolmbliss777]

This band was so dead-on excellent. I actually got to audition for this band right after Eric left (to join Kiss, maybe?). Talk about scary: it was an open cattle call set for 10am on a Saturday morning at local recording studio “Cerius Recording” - A really nice (and expensive!) kind of place. They were calling in drummers every 5 minutes, they'd go in and leave by another exit, which made it seem like they were being killed, or eaten. Or both. Everyone had to sign in upon arrival on a clip board at the front desk. When my turn came I walked in to the main room, there were only Jake & his manager. And a drum set. His manager said "You've got 3 minutes: impress us". And that’s what I tried to do.

[@jmgmarcus808]

Greg Chiasson and Jake E Lee sound and work so well together, much like the way Geezer and Tony played together. Fucking killer players.

[@jeffclark6988]

This takes me back to a very cool time in life itself...wish we could go back🍻

[@meerkat7406]

A great band lost in the vortex of changing musical tatstes. This was no glam hair band but pure unadulterated rock n roll with no gimmicks. Jake is just incredible here.

[@carlrobinson4924]

Wore out their first album when it came out. Very talented and underrated band

[@boondoggle9104]

Anyone remember The Reseda Country Club? 1987 I was just 18 there to catch a show. I looked behind me and standing in the doorway was Ray Gillan. I went to meet him and ask what's happening with Black Sabbath. He was just 'let go' and was pretty pissed about it. He went into detail about the swiping of his vocals and replaced by Tony Martin. So I asked what he's gonna be doing. Ray asks me if I'm familiar with Jake E. Lee. Of course, Jake was just 'let go' from Ozzy and was my favorite guitar player ( I was at his last show with Ozzy - benefit concert at The Palladium in February 1987 - front row beeotches) That was a lengthy conversation I had with Ray, maybe 10 - 15 mins. Very open and honest guy I felt.

[@andypalin3287]

Badlands were an Awesome band! The debut album is magnificent! 😀

[@mdwayne741]

Every piece of this band is a perfect fit together....it's ridiculous how good these guys were!
