Rock history 101.

Five whole decades ago.

It was this time last year (March 3) that we lost legendary guitarist Ronnie Montrose (who battled prostate cancer for five years) to a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The last time the surviving original Montrose members were in the the studio together was back in 1973. After forty years, Sammy Hagar joined original bassist Bill Church and original drummer Denny Carmassi last week to record some new music.
