L.A. Guns

"K.K. had a massive impact on everybody," the guitarist tells UCR.

Former Judas Priest guitarist K.K. Downing's band will play its first U.S. concerts in March.

The guitarist also tells UCR what he learned from his early days in Guns N' Roses.

"I'd rather be alive than give somebody $16 worth of Tracii Guns," the guitarist says.

"Immigrant Song"-style rocker marks the first single off 'Black Diamonds,' out April 14.

"You can't compare that record to anything else," guitarist Tracii Guns said.

The musician found alternate arrangements due to his panic disorder.

He takes pride in the finished product, "even though I didn't play one note on it."

Currently, two versions of the group exist.
