The lineup on "City To City" was the first to perform as Ratt, though they would change the name back to Mickey Ratt.


The lineup featuring Lee, Thorr, Alford, & DeLellis would be the last Mickey Ratt lineup before shortening the name to Ratt for good,
Robbin Crosby was the first 'classic' member to join Pearcy .
