The Hard Rock band Ratt, led by the vocalist Stephen Pearcy, shared a previously unreleased 80s song called “Reach For the Sky”. The song was recorded back in 1984 and the band said in an official statement: “Way cool right there! It took 40 years to get that song heard. Robbin is a happy RATT right now as he was instrumental in the song when writing it in 1982. All hail the “King”, brother Robbin Crosby.
“The band RATT releases a Brand New single!! This song was a previously Unreleased song written in 1982, slated to be on Out of the Cellar but ultimately, never released. Now, appropriately on the 40 year anniversary of the debut “OOTC” album, “Reach for the Sky” 1984-2024.”
As the statement said, the unreleased track is part of the 40th anniversary edition of the album “Out of The Cellar”, which will be released next November 8.
