Choosing a label to handle my music spanning 40 plus years in the industry is no easy task. Although,\u00a0<strong>Mark<\/strong>\u00a0&amp;\u00a0<strong>Golden Robot<\/strong>\u00a0have captured the modernization of the industry &amp; marketing, as well as, held onto the old school style that has served me well for decades, both of which are needed to handle a catalog as mine and the new music I bring to the table. As an artist, songwriter, &amp; performer, evolving is inevitable, therefore my team has to be on point &amp; lightning quick to keep up.\u00a0<strong>Mark\u00a0<\/strong>&amp;\u00a0<strong>Golden Robot<\/strong>\u00a0understand that concept and I look forward to our collaboration. With our first endeavor being the\u00a0<strong>Stephen Pearcy Legacy<\/strong>\u00a0album, this album will be a career retrospective from 1976 to date. I look forward to sharing never heard<strong>\u00a0RATT\u00a0<\/strong>classics in their infancy, early\u00a0<strong>RATT\u00a0<\/strong>with\u00a0<strong>Jake E. Lee<\/strong>,<strong>\u00a0Live RATT<\/strong>,<strong>\u00a0Arcade<\/strong>, solo covers, the last song written with\u00a0<strong>Robbin<\/strong>, the last song written with\u00a0<strong>Warren<\/strong>, and so much more. This is the first time I&#8217;ve reached so deep into the archives and it&#8217;s truly been a labor of love.
