{"product_id":"bang-your-head-feel-the-greg-prato-9798308354222","title":"Bang Your Head, Feel the Noize: The Quiet Riot Story","description":"In late 1983\/early 1984, one of the biggest metal bands in the US was Quiet Riot. Their album, \u003ci\u003eMetal Health\u003c\/i\u003e, had topped the charts (over Michael Jackson's \u003ci\u003eThriller \u003c\/i\u003eand other now-classic mega-sellers), their single \"Cum on Feel the Noize\" was a top-5 smash, the album's title track became an instant anthem for headbangers, they were all over MTV and the covers of rock mags, and were a highly-sought after opening act (by the likes of Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, AC\/DC, the Scorpions, ZZ Top, and Judas Priest). Heck, they even opened the now-famous US Festival's \"Heavy Metal Day,\" headlined by Van Halen. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut most importantly, the success of \u003ci\u003eMetal Health \u003c\/i\u003ecould be pinpointed as the beginning of the soon-to-be-widespread hair metal movement, which would result in such bands as Bon Jovi, Mötley Crüe, Ratt, Poison, and Dokken scaling the charts and rocking arenas. However, Quiet Riot's stay atop the metal heap would be fleeting for a variety of reasons - but tops probably being singer Kevin DuBrow's candid interviews. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eComprised of quotes from interviews past and present and featuring many rare vintage photos, \u003ci\u003eBang Your Head, Feel the Noize: The Quiet Riot Story \u003c\/i\u003eexamines all eras of the band: their '70s period which featured guitar legend Randy Rhoads in their line-up, through the blockbuster \u003ci\u003eMetal Health \u003c\/i\u003etime, and all the way to the modern day version of the group. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBe prepared for a wild and \"crazee\" story!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Greg Prato\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798308354222\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 354\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.04lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.74d","brand":"Greg Prato","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46907229012223,"sku":"9798308354222","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b5d93265-6f9d-4124-8a68-d5feb68d47f3.jpg?v=1748772705","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bang-your-head-feel-the-greg-prato-9798308354222","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
