The Garage Tape Dayz 78-81 is a compilation album of Mickey Ratt demos recorded between 1978 and 1981. Soon after the recording of these demos, the band shortened it's name to Ratt.
Several Mickey Ratt members went on to the band Rough Cutt, including guitarist Jake E. Lee, who later became famous for playing with Ozzy Osbourne, and also very briefly played with Dio (between the time he played with Rough Cutt and Ozzy Osbourne) and played with the American band Badlands, not to be confused with the band of the same name from the UK.
The song "City To City" is NOT the same song as the song of the same name on Ratt's Reach For The Sky.
