I interviewed or had Quiet Riot on my TV show 4 or 5 times over the past 15 years. They were always cordial, funny and a great interview. The comedic duo of drummer Frank Banali and singer Kevin DuBrow has always been one of my fondest memories of the hundreds or so major-label bands I’ve interviewed. Kevin will be missed.
