Episode 116: Carlos Cavazo Talks New King Kobra Album

<p>It was a treat to talk to the legendary Carlos Cavazo, who rose to prominence in the 1980s playing guitar for Quiet Riot as the band brought heavy metal music to the top of the Billboard charts. Carlos is now in Carmine Appice's 1980s band, King Kobra, and they've got a new album out called We Are Warriors. Carlos talked about how he joined forces with Carmine Appice and company, the making of the album, his musical origin story, joining and having success with Quiet Riot, briefly becoming a member of Ratt, and much more. Big thanks to Carlos for his time.</p> <p>Please hit the like button and/or leave a rating/review wherever you consume this podcast.
