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. Reportedly, the band originally intended for the album to be produced entirely by Mike "Clay" Stone, but Stone's abysmal producing of the album, from the DAT tape recordings, prompted Atlantic Records to bring in Beau Hill to assist Stone and salvage the album. Pro wrestler Brian Pillman used "Don't Bite The Hand That Feeds" as his theme music, when WCW talent go on tour with New Japan Pro Wrestling. less
