Guitarist Robbin Crosby of the heavy metal rock band Ratt has died of AIDS complications, his brother-in-law said. He was 42.
Crosby, who disclosed he had AIDS last July in a radio station interview, died Thursday in Los Angeles.
Crosby said that he may have contracted the disease when he started using heroin as a member of Ratt, which had such hits as "Round and Round" and "Lay It Down."
Ratt guitarist Warren De Martini remembered that Crosby always knew he wanted to be a rock star.
Crosby was born Aug. 4, 1959, in San Diego. He teamed with fellow San Diego musicians De Martini and Stephen Pearcy as Ratt's 1984 debut album, "Out of the Cellar," reached No. 7 on the national charts. The quintet's first four albums all sold more than 1 million copies. Ratt disbanded in 1992. |
