Via: likesuccess.com
Robbin Crosby was the guitarist of one of the lead metal bands of the 1980s, Ratt. Famous both for the music and for the drama, the group produced hits like “Round and Round” and “Lay It Down”. Crosby was diagnosed with HIV in 1994, which had made its way into all-out AIDS in 2001. Robbin tried to find joy in life after the disease’s onset, but died tragically in 2002, probably due to a heroin overdose.
