Tracy G (born Tracy Grijalva on January 3, 1959 in Whittier, California) is an American heavy metal guitarist best known for his time with Dio from 1993 to 1999. His first band was with his father, called the Grijalva Brothers. It started out when he was seven and wanted to play in Little League Baseball, childhood illness struck and he couldn't play in the season. Grijalva then wanted to play drums, but decided that guitar would be better because he could then play in his father's band, the Grijalva Brothers. He had a few guitar instructors when he was little, and was told by one of them that he would have a hard time playing because "his fingers were too small". Grijalva, being the determined musician that he was, would practice until his fingers hurt. Tracy G played in his father's band but eventually grew out of it. He would later play in a variety of bands, including with future member of Great White, Jack Russell. He also put together the bands Love/Hate with singer Jizzy Pearl, and Swift Kick. He would play at almost any club he could find to get his publicity out. He also played with vocalist Rudy Torres and drummer Audie Desbrow (Great White) in Riff Raff, a very popular band around southern California in the early days of hard rock and heavy metal. Tracy then joined Dio. In his six years with the band, Tracy G was featured on two studio albums, (''Strange Highways'' and ''Angry Machines''), and one live album (''Inferno: Last in Live''). He left the band in 1999 when he was asked to play rhythm guitar while Craig Goldy took lead. Dio decided to bring back Goldy, who had played with him on the ''Dream Evil'' album. Currently, Tracy G is in the band Goad-ed. They have released two albums and Tracy has released numerous solo albums as well.〔http://tracyg.com/discography.html〕 ==Discography== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tracy G」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
