Question 9

While it includes the song "Thunderbird" dedicated to recently deceased founding guitarist Randy Rhoads, this album released in 1983 is known primarily for its first two songs.

Identify this album by an L.A.-based quartet that overtook the Police’s Synchronicity, becoming the first heavy metal album to reach #1 on the Billboard Album charts.
