Ronnie passed away over the weekend. He was one of the great guitar players.

Unpretentious, unassuming raw talent from a guy that just loved to play. He will be missed.

being a percussionist myself I know that any great musical talent is one to be appreciated and cherished.

Sad indeed R.I.P.

Saw Montrose after his first solo album release (Sammy Hagar days). Still one of the best concerts I've ever seen.

I saw him in 1978 after he released "Open Fire". He opened for Journey, right after they got Steve Perry and ruined the band.
