Don't Tell Me You Love Me

Night Ranger

Night ranger had a huge hit with Sister Christian. I wasn’t smitten though, it was a bit light for me at the time other than by the guitar solo. Robin Gallagher played me albums before Midnight Madness and then I was completely blown away. The twin guitar attack of Jeff Watson and Brad Gillis was one of the best around. If you want to hear brilliant two hand tapping just listen to Night Ranger, masters of the art !

Night Ranger still to this day release good stuff. Their 2011 release Somewhere in California was superb. This track ‘Don’t Tell Me You Love Me’ showcases what they were like live in around 1985. they had adopted the hair metal look but they were way more than that. Night ranger are one of the best bands to come out of the ’80’s no fucking question about it.
