Re: People who get called "underrated" so much that they probably aren't.
This is correct. GreatWhiteSnake is talking out of his arse. He does this a lot. Also, Jake E Lee IS underrated He’s seldom mentioned by non-musicians. I’d say Warren DeMartini is underrated as well Naw they were great players who more than got their due in their day. I’m not a RDC fan but I think ...

Re: People who get called "underrated" so much that they probably aren't.
Mick Mars probably is in this camp, too. I'm not sure about this one. I'm no student of Motley, but Mick's claim to fame seemed to always be his tone. IDK, he always struck me as right for Motley but not a guitarist that should be on any "lists." Mick always made the “worst guitarist” lis...

Definitely after 1978, dingis. Given your timeline and line of thinking it’s safe to say that Quiet Riot, London, Twisted Sister, Def Leppard, Y&T, Night Ranger, WASP, Dokken, Motley Crue and Whitesnake aren’t hairbands either. Most of those bands were together in one form or another and doing ...

Get over it! I said they were cringey, that's a far cry from being butt hurt. Europeans singing some tribute ...

I really enjoy this album! I like every track on here except This Means War and That's the Way I Wanna Rock n Roll. Two's Up is awesome and there's a lot of mid-tempo numbers that just seems to groove nicely. I'd give it 8/10. I never understood all the love for Fly on here. I felt Video and Razor’...

I think all staged choreography is stupid, from KISS rocking back and forth to what Gene's blood routine evolved into compared to the early days. Warrant down on their knees in unison, rocking back and forth—that kind of thing. I always thought spinning the guitar/bass around one's neck a la Cinder...
