    I don't know how I could've forgotten a favorite of mine since '84....

    I so dig this tune. Too bad it never made the album. Some really great work from Ritchie on this one.

    We're trying to build a monument to show that we were here
    It won't be visible through the air
    And there won't be any shade to cool the monument to prove that we were here. - Gene Parsons, 1973

    Always loved this one from the Coop:

    I second this. Great heavy-duty instrumental guitar rock/metal with his drummer bro.

    Can't forget this album. It smokes!

    Ronnie's Open Fire was a classic - I have an old vinyl copy but it took forever to find a digital copy. I see now it's part of a Montrose CD box so I might have to just spring for that.

    I know I heard that Ace Frehley instrumental back in the day but all I remember is "New York Groove", a song I have never fallen out of love with.

    Open Fire is indeed a classic - I'd go so far as to call much of it metallic jazz or jazzy metal - but "Leo Rising" isn't "hard rock" by any definition I know. Great track, but acoustic as the day is long.

    I was lucky enough to see Ronnie on the "Open Fire" tour. It was an amazing show, and I was two seats away from the stage (not that there were any seats very far from the stage; it was quite a small club.)

    I posted some random tracks because there isn't a single "full album" file on YT at the moment. I simply recommend the whole thing, just like everyone else who's a fan.
