A superb album, Riot's best. I prefer Guy Speranza (RIP) but the Rhett Forrester (RIP) era still gave us Restless Breed and Born In America. Mark Reale is one of the best unknown guitarists, Riot should have been huge, like Diamond Head.<BR/><BR/>TT Quick I haven't put on in a long time. I have Metal Of Honor on CD and had Sloppy Seconds on a dubbed cassette back in the day. Sloppy Seconds continues to elude me on CD.<BR/><BR/>Mark - Thundersteel is not Riot's finest hour. To me, Reale went shredfest on the album and it turns me off. I think it lacks swagger and balls that the early albums had.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7048465.post-1155740685156470522006-08-16T11:04:00.000-04:002006-08-16T11:04:00.000-04:00TT Quick?

I liked them and early Raven, but have never heard a Riot album except Thundersteel (I think that was the name of it).Metal Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18400759786407810475noreply@blogger.com
