What a GREAT PLAY LIST!

[@KevinPutzier]

I just learned of Steve's death yesterday. I met him a few times in the 80's. He was a very nice gentleman, who took the time to seek out the shy kid (me) in a very bad time in my life. He didn't know me from Adam and had no reason to do that. His death is hard on me. He was a huge influence on my own vocal style, but beyond that, he was a decent human being. Rest in Power, Steve Grimmet.

[@gterrymed]

excellent! very sad news indeed. I LOVE ❤ GRIM REAPER.

[@walterbordoshuk101]

That last note in See You In Hell is absolutely INSANE! Held that note longer than Painkiller. Otherworldly breathing technique. RIP STEVE!!! 🤘🤘

[@bryantrowan6799]

He was doing the Brazilian technique breathing through his eyes like The Nuke from Bull Duram movie

[@LB00146]

This is how it's done!! No backing tracks whatsoever yet it still sounds as full and as bombastic as on the albums! ..this is how you play live!!

Didn't need a fancy light show either.

That because they all have true talent to music not some computer drum beat. Remember the commercial is it live or is it memorex . In this case its live

[@JHoliday330]

Absolutely! Steve Grimmett's vocals were amazingly powerful and Nick Bowcott's guitar technique is the ultimate in high-efficiency shredding!

David Wayne!great vocal

[@nathaninostroza7655]

Didnt knew he died, didnt knew he and i shared the same month and day birthday, i attended to his gig with picture and Steve was a force of nature, aged extremely well, voice was unreal. This crush me dude, but i guess he rest in power, since he had a really delicate condition when he got a leg amputated, so he doesnt suffer anymore. This singer can rival any heavy metal singer even on his last years, he really separated the men from the boys with his chateaux lp he sang on.

[@The1WhoKnowsTheTruth]

I love Steve Grimmett and have always said he is one of the best vocalists in all of Metal. He is the "headvoice" master. I just never understood why he would agree to get these silly azz hair extensions like he did here. His hair was just barely at his shoulders in the 1984 video for "See You In Hell." Did he think he fooled us all? Now..Grim Reaper's music always killed. They (Grimmett and Bowcott) need to get back together now, when we need them the most and make that 4th GR album "Absolutely Nothing To Do With Hell." I have seen some recent live vids of Steve's version of Grim Reaper and he lays real low and safe and hardly ever attempts the big screams we love him for. I know he still has it. Check out Steve's killer tribute covers of Maiden; 2 Minutes 2 Midnight and Aces High as well as his killer Whitesnake tribute covers; Still of the Night and Slow and Easy. The man is simply stellar in the studio.

[@lennybower7157]

Grimmett & Bowcott teamed up for a recent Grim reaper reunion tour in America in 2014. There's a video interview of the two in Chicago as well as on Blabbermouth.net (April 22, 2014). There's also a KZbin video for their 'Lust For Freedom' show in Chicago last year (look up Tv6Promotions here on KZbin). They still sound very good there, and very much the same :)

***** No, I'm not - Arch was/is good, but back then he was basically a Bruce Dickinson clone. Alder has more of his own original style and sound, and he has ( or had ) a better range as well. "Eye To Eye" has some of the most insane high notes I've ever heard in a Metal song, definitely up there with Halford and Tate in their prime. Too bad Alder has lost that range now.
