RATT Classic "Lay It Down" Gets The Couch Riffs Treatment; Video
November 3, 2021, 3 years ago
The Couch Riffs crew are back with a cover of Ratt's "Lay It Down", featured on their 1985 sophomore album, Invasion Of Your Privacy.
A message states: "There are few songs from the 80s that have the slippery groove and filthy guitar work to match this song from Ratt's 1985 classic, Invasion Of Your Privacy. 'Lay It Down' is arguably the greatest of its genre and Doug Rappoport handles the Warren Demartini guitar work here with confidence. MOST of this cover is a straight recreation, though I just sorta did whatever I wanted. The adventurous drum performance by Natrix here is the real plot twist and I hope you'll give it a few listens to absorb and digest it. The more I listen, the more I like it!"
