| Oh yeah, some great classic metal. I love all their incarnations but Fire Down Under is my favorite. _________________ I don't have time for all if it, so I pick my battles. I concentrate on spotting and weeding out satanic paper, handkerchiefs (do you really want Satan that close to your nose?) and eggs.

I only have two cd's from them: Fire From Down Under and Thundersteel and I agree about Fire Down Under, that is my favorite of the two. I love the sound of early 80's metal.  |

| You would love more by them. Thundersteel and Born In America are excellent and Priviledge Of Power is very good though the breaks between songs get old. The more current stuff is some serious Rainbow worship. _________________ I don't have time for all if it, so I pick my battles.

Thanks for the recommendation. Wow, I just read on Wikipedia that Guy Speranza died of pancreatic cancer in 2003, at the age of 47.  |

| Guy was a born again Christian at that stage of his life and I've read that he didn't like to share with his family about his days in Riot. I love Riot... Riot Live is an EXCELLENT live disc. Great crankin' tune. If you liked 'Fire Down Under' you'll dig this dig. The two disc with Rhett Forester 'Born in America' and 'Restless Breed' are classic.! |

That's great that he knew the Lord, and I was wondering if he did when I read on Wikipedia that his religious convictions were at odds with his being in Riot. The implication is that is why he left the band, though there are no references or souces listed for the article. |

| I'm a Riot fan. After Fire Down Under and Thundersteel, my other favorite album is Nightbreaker. Great disc! _________________ “If you make less than $250,000 your taxes will not go up.
