I was lucky enough to see Rogue Male and Vulcain in Montpellier while I was studying in France. What a show! First Visit was brilliant and very much in the same vein as Motörhead, with a definite punk influence.

First heard "Crazy Motorcycle" on a 4-record collection called "Welcome To The Metalzone" from Music For Nations. Still one of my favorite songs, all these years later! Went right out and bought this record! And, last year, bought both Rogue Male albums on CD. I was stunned that they were finally available on CD! Awesome! Didn't realize that anyone remembered them! Thanks so much for posting this!

Utter mentalists, I had some good times at their shows until I fractured my hip stagediving to "Crazy Motorcycle". I was at this TV recording in the invited audience, they carried on playing after the live TV link was cut, and did another 2 songs. I would pay dearly to get hold of that extra footage.

I consider Jim a close friend. And a Good Friend. I wish I could be in his part of the woods to go see the band play. All you in London And Ireland go see the band and support them. Raise your Fist and give a Hell Yeah for me! Craig USA!

Crazy Motorcycle was my favourite. But this will do just fine. Once we asked a mate if he knew what dressed incognito meant and he replied , yes, I wear a cognito to school all the time. (we were 15. Still we never let him forget it....)

Of course I was attracted by the Terminator-esque cover art of First Visit back in the 1980s. Took album home and was knocked out by "Dressed Incognito" which instantly became one of my ten favorite metal ditties of all time. Still is. That rollicking riff is stupendously splendid. Looked for RM several times here on KZbin but for some reason never found this clip. Well, I located it today and have played the crap out of it. I'm in metal heaven.

Man I agree.....I was at the Sherwood and Rogue Male was the 2nd band on opening for Svatage and they tore the roof off the place. Remember Ace Cosby of Q95 handing out free Rogue Male albums?? Good Times!!

I remember seeing Rogue Male in Kerrang(when it was a real music magazine) they should've been bigger and done a lot better! These 2 tracks are nothing in comparison to the Animal Man album,but a good starting point!

The new album is out, I ordered my copy from their website, and it was actually sent direct by Jim Lyttle no less! He signed it too. Its pretty good, and you can hear all the old Rogue Male fury in there, it doesn't sound like GMT which is a good thing I think. Jim says he has a killer lineup now, and theyre sposed to be playing a few shows at the end of the year, I can't wait!

In the early 80's Rogue Male opened up for Savatage and Metal Church at the Uptown Theatre in Kansas City. Promotional copies of their debit album were handed out at the door. By the end of their set the albums were being tossed back at them. I think metalheads weren't ready for Rogue Male. I have always loved the band though.

Not reissue, as the label still owns the release. However...they can remaster it and release an updated version. Most contracts allow for remastering after 7 years.
