Kelly is not only a gifted Musician with a golden touch for the Bass, he carries that into his eye for beauty as is apparent in his photos & art. Founding Member & Bassist of the Original Quiet Riot. One of the more successful hard rock acts in Los Angeles in the mid to late 1970s. Play clubs including the Starwood and KROQ’s Cabaret nightclub to name just a few. By 1977 they were able to secure a deal with Sony, but their records would be released only in Japan. The original four members recorded their debut album Quiet Riot, or QR I, in 1977. Their second album Quiet Riot II, or QR II, was recorded at ’The Record Plant’ and released in Japan in 1978. Once recording was completed, Kelly left the band.
