I’m sure it’s been said before on this forum, but is there a definitive reason why, with all of Ratt’s post Robin guitar player changes, Jake never rejoined the band as a FTM?

I dunno if they were going to play together, necessarily, I think it was just a nice picture.

Pearcy/DeMartini absolutely played, and Sebastian guested on two tracks.

Wth happened to him? Was the Badlands crash'n'burn just too much for him to handle? Or was he already unraveling personally as the band was musically?

Or was it losing the Ozzy gig that accelerated the issues?

Idk... he got the Badlands deal pretty quickly and seemed to have his head together for the 1st album. #2 was when they started leaking oil.
