Reach for the Sky is Ratt's fourth full length album. Though it sold well enough to achieve platinum sales status and spawned the hits "I Want a Woman" and "Way Cool Jr.", it is generally considered by critics and fans alike as the point where Ratt "jumped the shark". This album has also marked the last Ratt album to be produced by Beau Hill.
