Robbin Crosby (August 4, 1959 – June 6, 2002), born Robbinson Lantz Crosby and nicknamed "King" was one of the former lead guitarists in the glam metal band Ratt, who had several platinum albums in the U.S. in the mid to late 1980s.
Robbin Crosby's guitar playing was largely influenced by guitar hero Jimi Hendrix. He joined Ratt in 1982 as the co-lead guitarist alongside noted shredder Warren DeMartini.
The hulking blond guitarist was quite a sight on stage with his Jackson King V guitars, the style he preferred. He would also put a red rose on the end of his guitar because, "I thought the chicks would dig it". He requested six red roses on the item list of the tour rider.
