When Ronnie Montrose passed away on March 3, 2012, friends and musicians immediately wondered what they could do to pay homage to one of rock’s all-time legendary – and influential – guitarists.

The result was some of music’s most renowned artists uniting for a concert only a month and a half later (April 27) and performing Ronnie classics throughout the evening – which will now make its official DVD release on December 10, 2013, Concert for Ronnie Montrose – A Celebration of His Life In Music.

Recorded in San Francisco at the historic Regency Ballroom and mixed in 5.1 surround sound, the DVD features performance by Ronnie’s past band members in Montrose (Sammy Hagar, Denny Carmassi, Bill Church with Joe Satriani), Gamma (Davey Pattison, Denny Carmassi and Glenn Letsch with Marc Bonilla), performing both groups’ hits.

Additionally, Ronnie’s colleagues and people he mentored and produced over the 40 years of his career are featured as well, including Neal Schon (Journey), Ricky Phillips (Styx), Steve Smith (ex-Journey), Ed Roth, Jimmy Paxson (Stevie Nicks), Jeff Watson (ex-Night Ranger), Tesla, Eric Singer and Tommy Thayer (Kiss), Eric Martin (Mr. Big), and more.

The DVD will also include interviews, bonus features, a photo gallery, and an additional set of Ronnie’s hits by an all-star band featuring Chuck Terpo, Mario Cipollina, Tal Morris, Dave Meniketti and the members of Y&T. This was recorded and filmed at Bob Weir’s TRI Studios.

The full list of participating artists: Sammy Hagar, Neal Schon, Joe Satriani, Denny Carmassi, Bill Church, Davey Pattison, Glenn Letsch, Marc Bonilla, Tommy Suczek, Ricky Phillips, Steve Smith, Ed Roth, Eric Singer, Tommy Thayer, Jimmy Paxson, Eric Martin, Jeff Watson, CJ Hutchins, Tal Morris, Frank Hannon, Brian Wheat, Jeff Keith, Dave Rude, Troy Luccketta, Dave Meniketti, John Nyman, Brad Lang, Mike Vanderhule, Mario Cippolina, Chuck Terpo, Amber Morris, April Grisman, Michael Indelicato, Steve Brown, Dan McNay, Randy Scoles.
