Montrose first album is a true classic ..😎🎛🎸

[@MartinNelson-m4f]

Don’t forget Sammy Hagar was the other half that made that album what it is today

[@sunnyramsey2753]

I bought this album and wore it out and then bought another one.

[@MrTea7]

They were the American Led Zeppelin. Plant&Page Ronnie&Sammy. First album = to Zep's #1, who else could make that claim. Bill Graham himself said if they had stayed together...biggest band in the world? Oh well too much for one stage I guess. Strange thing I saw Sammy open teh show at Winterland in '75 he debuted his solo act with the new Montrose headlining, He played "Red" hot hot hot.

[@MartinNelson-m4f]

@@MrTea7 thank you buddy. Great memories always.

Ronnie Montrose and Pat Travers together. Just f*cking awesome.

I wonder how many people in the audience know what a treat this is that they witnessed that day.

[@cordelljeffries1650]

i did. i was there. it was amazeballs.

[@darrinros1177]

All of them. These two are the reigning kings of full tilt boogie. Period.

[@mattdickson6796]

[@girlsrockurboyz]

very few my friend!!

[@Bob1014ify]

Nobody today understands what happened on that day!

[@1959JEK]

Montrose was the first concert I ever attended. They played with Foghat and Black Oak Arkansas in 77. It was a great concert. I used to crank Pat Travers "Puttin it Straight" on my Craig powerplay system with a 300 watt Craig amp in my 73 Mustang. You could hear me coming from a mile away. It's a wonder that I can still hear. Two legends of ROCK!

[@daveb5623]

Pat Travers was my first concert. Rochester NY about 1977.

[@tonydeaton2890]

Montrose was my first as well. Opened for Golden Earring. Most of the audience was there to see Montrose because when they left the stage, most of the audience left with them.

[@1959JEK]

[@daveb5623]

[@douglaschristine8387]

Me too, I had Pat's first five album's. Those were his glory days.

[@dangerboy1027]

Saw Montrose years in OKC when they were out promoting the 1st album. Had no idea who they were...they were on the bill with Foghat and J- Geils. They were first up and after they were finished we just looked at each other and said, "WOW!" They blew the other 2 bands away. We went out the next day and bought the Montrose album. "Rock Candy"..."Bad Motor Scooter".."Rock The Nation" and "Space Station #5" are on my iPod to this day. RIP Ronnie.

[@Swamprowdy]

Not to mention the lead singer was Samny Hagar.

[@2bluelady]

I was at this show in St. Louie which was fantastic!!! The bald guy who I am seeing comments regarding is the incredible Ronnie Montrose. RIP Ronnie. It's a sad day...

[@monmixer]

Montrose was my favorite band growing up and still is. RIP Ronnie Montrose.

[@johnnyphillips4406]

The first joint I smoked we had Montrose playing on eight track. I thought the engine sound was the coolest thing I ever heard.

[@TheDannyroy69]

that's awesome

[@MrChristopherHaas]

Still is

[@TheDKServices]

Motley Crue stole it(Wild Side?) but the original still rules! Never saw Sammy or Montrose but did see Pat Travers in a club show 1990ish and of course he tore it up

[@redhead5150]

Even though Sammy wrote this, Ronnie definitely helped his guitar playing. The first Montrose album is a classic and I have the vinyl in a safe !!!! Travers rocked on this and R.I.P. Ronnie you'll never be forgotten.

What a inspiration, what a loss. Spoke with Ronnie just a few months before he died. Those white Marshalls in my picture were his before he sold them to me. Used on his first few albums with Sammy. Didn't appreciate what I had but I will love his music forever. Rest in peace old friend. Mick

[@waynepetralia8105]

Saw both Pat Travers and Ronnie Montrose in Albany NY in the late 70's percorming in separate shows. Ronnie's band was wedged in between opener Van Halen and headliner Journey at the famous Palace Theatre in March 1978, then Pat Travers played a relatively small movie auditorium called The Madison Theater in Octobe with Richard T Bear warming up. In December 1979 Gamma played Allen's Pub in nearby Scotia and we had a table upstairs overlooking the band from 30 feet away and had a terribly cute waitress serving our drinks all night. 3 great shows like we'll never see again for a total ticket cost of under $25 for all 3 shows.

Pat "Boom Boom" Travers is one of the most overlooked and underrated guitarist`s and songwriters ever! Sammy was actually better later on,but he still rocked!

[@1970borntorun]

And don't forget Pat Thrall from the best era of Pat's career too! He was very tasty and really filled out Pat's Live sound back in the mid to late 70s :) ♫

Especially if you aren't from Toronto. Even people in the next province don't know him...but...he kicks ass on guitar and his band is the hardest rocking band in the country. Still rocking. I love this. I don't know Montrose, but ...this is great. I have found another great band.

[@loraljohnson]

You may enjoy Pat Travers Band from 1976 with Pat, Mars Cowling, and Nicko McBrain (now with Iron Maiden) on drums. Start the video at about twenty-five minutes into this concert where Pat just changed from a Telecaster to his trademark Gibson Melody Maker, he tunes up a bit, and BAM he breaks into a great slide performance on "You Don't Love Me"... enjoy

[@BUNKERJR53]

I saw Montrose in 1974 with Spooky Tooth and Humble Pie. Humble Pie was the Headliner and that's who I was there to see. Never heard of Montrose before but when they came on stage for the last set they tore the Baltimore (Maryland) Civic Center away. I became a fan right there and then. What an amazing group and first album. One of the greatest in rock history. In this video it features two of the greatest guitar slingers to ever walk the planet. Pat Travers and Ronnie Montrose, what more can I say?
