Quiet Riot - Bang Your Head (Live)

You're right. I distinctly remember when this out of the blue band came on the radio with this song. The whole 80s metal scene came on like an avalanche. They got pushed aside unfortunately but this was the catalyst for sure.

Well the West Coast had Van Halen and Mötley Crüe, so it wouldn't have taken too long

[@WhatsCookingTime]

In my opinion quiet riot started what became known as '80s metal and hard rock without these guys who knows what would happen it might have been more than 70s crap

That was my first concert as well!! I remember it being loud as hell

[@presjobro]

That was my first concert too back in 1983, I was or just turning 13 when I saw them. What a concert, then I saw them at a small venue here in Vancouver in the mid to late 90's where I got to stand right in front of them.

Damn the 80’s was the best era ever....back when you HAD to be able to actually sing and be able to play your instrument.

Kevin was a Real Rock Singer.... Many others were good too, but it if wasn't for Quiet Riot the 80s would have been bland!

Met him at, ROCK NEVER STOPS TOUR 2006. Told him I loved his voice. Pitch perfect. Humble guy.

[@CBsCANDO]

Where was this at? Came to Saginaw MI with some other bands. They were right on , sounded as good as live in 1983.

[@Wize817]

💯 Metal Health changed the game in 83! QR kicked the door wide open, it simplified Metal's formula in a good way. Without Quiet Riot, 80's Metal could of been too soft in the US, with less bass, less drums, and less anthems. The fact that their album was the first Metal album to break the Billboard 100 and reach #1 says it all. That INFLUENCE cannot be overstated.💪

I saw a Quiet Riot here in Hartford Connecticut at the Webster Theater man probably 10 to 15 years ago with Kevin Dubrow and the whole original lineup and it was an awesome awesome show. Carlos cavazo was shredding the guitar Frankie was killing the drums and Rudy sarzo was just laying down the f****** beat it was a show one of the best shows I had ever seen the arena show or Club show they were on point they were razor sharp and I guess this happened some years before Kevin Dubrow passed away don't remember the exact year he died but it was a great great concert in a testament to the 80s heavy metal

[@SniperManfred]

Quiet Riot has always been an underrated band. D.E.P. Kevin

[@Matthew-g5o]

No one could sing like Dubrow could. This IS the Quiet Riot that we know, miss, and love.

[@pumpkinheadghoul]

Kevin Dubrow had the most infectious smile. I met him and the rest of Quiet Riot at a record signing 37 years ago in Northwest Indiana, just outside of Chicago. That was WAAAAAAY back when I was just 19 years old. They had already been on the road for several months, and this was probably the 100th one of these record signing things they had attended, but every one of them acted like there was nowhere else on earth they'd rather be. I wanted so badly to purchase an album for them to sign, but I didn't have the money, so when I got up to the table where they were all seated, I figured I'd just meet them, shake their hands and that would be that. It would still have been the highlight of my month. Carlos asked if I wanted them to sign anything, and I said I didn't have the money to purchase a record, as I had spent my money on the concert ticket. He grabbed a Quiet Riot LP, signed it and handed it down the line for the rest of the band to sign. When Kevin signed it, he handed it to me, smiled and said, "Merry Christmas." I remember it being like a week after the 4th of July. I've never forgotten Kevin's smile, Frankie's hair, and how generous they were to some nobody Midwestern kid in raggedy jeans who was just happy to be meeting some rock stars.
