Dave Meniketti at nearly 70 is a living legend . Y&T are right up there for me too , any self respecting hard rock / metal head should have 'black tiger' and 'mean streak' in there collection .Rock on mate and keep on 'hangin' 'em high' .

Nice to see someone show some love to Y &T. They were one of my favorite bands. I have seen them 9 times over the years (first time '82, last time 2019) and they never disappointed. I just wanted to say that they did hit headliner status at the point after Mean Streak. One of the shows I attended they were headlining a 3 band line up at a 16,000 seat arena. I've seen them at least once in every incarnation and the players were always excellent. Dave is so underrated as a singer and especially guitar player. He's one of those players that you can see him feeling every note in his solos and even his more blues oriented solo stuff is amazing

Hi Tom…. Yeah I love Y&T. Dave and the boys are so underrated it’s not even funny.. that’s why I did a video… to get it out there a little more… I know they headlined a little bit they never got to the massive heights like Priest or Maiden… they should have …. Dave is amazing as a singer and guitar player .. another guy like him is Grand Funks Mark Farner… another amazing singer/ guitars player …. I like Dave’s solo albums as well

Oakland California baby, Y&T I've been to their rehearsal space over by the bridge to Alameda, it was above an automotive repair joint opperated by the local 1% Dominant. That place has a long history for the local musicians and bikers. And of course Y&T kicked ass back in the day.

Now this is why I LOVE this channel! I’m a slightly younger guy, getting back into all these bands, and have to admit my depth on some of this was seriously lacking. I was like “Y&T?…..what is that, a chain of gas stations?” Then I realized that down in my record archive I had one of their records but had never spun it. WHAT WAS I THINKING!!! These guys are incredible! I love straight up party rock and roll that makes you feel good, and these guys have it in spades! I went straight to eBay and got Black Tiger and Mean Streak. Thanks Augie for being KZreads preeminent Apostle of Rock!
