Robert Whitcomb we know his name and to answer your other question: He's underrated because if you talked to most people during the 80s about guitarists, the name Neil Giraldo probably wouldn't have been brought up. Names like Eddie, Randy, Satriani, Slash, Yngwie, George Lynch, Steve Vai, and many others would have been said way before him. And except for a few standouts, his name should be right up there because he's just as good, but really didn't get the same credit as those guys.

Neil Giraldo was ahead of his time in the 80s in my opinion. Probably one of the best but relatively unheard of guitarists of the time

[@Bfdidc]

Agreed. A real stand out performance here.

[@krelbar]

Agreed, but still doesn't hold a candle to 'Precious Time'.

[@jasonbold]

He really is fantastic. I think he deserves far more credit than he gets.

[@henryrecord9400]

She definitely needs to be put into the Hall of Fame for rock and roll she was one of the best in the '80s

[@brightbite]

2:43 Her high note is so perfect it brings me to tears. Masterful!

[@mariannferranti7236]

Saw the Crimes Of Passion tour. She was unbelievable! Her vocals were top notch. She is still the ultimate female singer in my opinion.

You know she was trained in classical opera.

Pat & Neil always bringing the fire. But don't sleep on that drummer Myron Grombacher. He kicks ass. He's drummed on 9 Pat Benatar's albums.

[@mariomalbano2718]

Way overdue ! Put them in😊

[@joefishgolf3]

Arguably the most powerful female rock voice, since Joplin, her band was so talented and so underrated, Geraldo was and is a great guitarist, songwriter, arranger, producer.

[@lanag9318]

Amen ! Definitely deserving of the hall of fame as all of her songs are .Iconic ! 🌹💖💖🎉

When feminism mattered. Pat is iconic. Met her after my mom passed and told her how much she meant to my mother. We shared a special moment. She knew I was speaking from the heart. Great Christian and amazing singer.

Neil Giraldo-- one of the most underrated guitarists EVER! Seeing this on MTV secured the deal in me wanting to seriously take up the guitar. 35 yrs later I'm still a weekend warrior!

[@hanc37]

Joe Robinson There where many musicians over look back then...

[@TailSpinRocks]

+Joe Robinson Right on! I had the same experience from seeing this video. Especially, when he hit the high "D" on the 22nd fret of the bottom string at the end of his solo. Neil's been one of my Top 5 since then. Very cool!

[@iansnyder274]

Absolutely. .I still get thrills and chills watching Neil just go epic in every direction. ..as a semi pro guitar player, this is just devastatingly inspiring. ..power,taste,tone,attitude,authority rock star looks..I still want to be him when I watch this all these years later!!!

Out of all of those fantastic songs, this has always been my favourite of hers. Brilliant vocal.

yes brilliant everything

It's definitely one of her more underrated songs

[@nelsonpatino5394]

One of the best rock bands that came out of the 80's.

[@steveunderdahl8929]

I keep being reminded what a great guitar player Neil Geraldo is! He has such a unique style. I find a lot of his solos extremely difficult to figure out and play. This one on Promises in the Dark is just fantastic! And Pat, what a vocal range! They both deserved the HOF, it was about time!

AND THAT , my friends, is how you kick ass. Every member of that band was at the very top level, a 'try to beat it , you can't ' performance and working as a unified team.

The drummer is definitely putting in some work on this track.

[@sl4983]

Not to mention the SONG WRITING AND LYRICS! My gosh, just incredible!

[@KathyHussey063]

@@sl4983 Pat Benetar had so many excellently written songs it was almost unbelievable back then, I'd listen to this entire cassette tape back then and every song was a winner in all ways. Yes...I said "cassette tape". There were no cds or dvds back then. It was an acquired skill (only mastered after putting in too many hours of practice) to be able to land exactly on the beginning of any particular song on any cassette. No auto search or any other offers of assistance came from those mindless cassette players of the 70's & 80's. lol. People born after 1985 will never know the horrors of my / our #MisspentYouth . ha. She and her band gave every all male group a real run for their money.

[@josephhickman7244]

Yes compared to some so called lead vocalist, she gave the band room to rock...remember this was before voice dubs and retracing included in performances

[@daveguy11]

Here's a little story that you've probably never heard anything about: sometime in the 1970s, before Pat became a rocker and got a label deal, she was living in Richmond, Va. (my hometown) with her military-member 1st husband. At that time she was singing sedate cocktail-lounge music with a small jazz combo. So, one day, she and her band did a performance on the local public t.v. station, and I saw it. I remembered it later because it wasn't long after that she re-emerged as a leotard-wearing, chopped-hair hard rocker, which was a shocking, 180° change from the frilly-blouse-demure-skirt-wearing, soft-jazz-singing woman I had seen on t.v. not that long before. I swear that's a true story, and that I still remember it all these years later. I'm probably one of the few people who remembers the pre-rocker Pat Benatar crooner.

[@user-xw6vz1hl7y]

No question. Myron and Nel are locked in

[@SilentKnight43]

Glad I didn't need to scroll far to see someone else's appreciation for Myron. He's always been one of my favorite drummers over the decades. His talent was a huge part of the formula.
