Agree wholeheartedly. Sadly, the last time I saw Richrath was on REO's Behind the Music special on VH-1. He was in pretty bad shape due to alcoholism and Cronin had more or less written him off. He just looked awful! Drunk and bloated.

I wonder if he's cleaned up?

He was a kick-ass guitar player! I always liked those old videos on MTV recorded live at MacNichol's Arena in Denver. Richrath with his '59 Les Paul just wailing away!
