Robbin Crosby's guitar playing was largely influenced by guitar heroes Jimi Hendrix, Michael Schenker, and Billy Gibbons. He joined Ratt in 1982 as the co-lead guitarist alongside future King Kobra and BulletBoys vocalist Marq Torien. Crosby preferred to play Jackson King V (especially designed for him by Jackson, used his nickname for the guitar's name) and Jackson Custom Firebird guitars. He would often put a red rose on the end of his guitar, at one point stating "I thought the chicks would dig it. " He requested six red roses on the item list of the tour rider.

- ロビン・クロスビー（Robbin Crosby、1959年8月4日 - 2002年6月6日）は、LAメタルの頂点に君臨したラット（RATT）のバンドメンバーとして活躍したロックギタリスト。 1991年のRATT最後の来日公演を最後にバンドを脱退。半年後に自己の新バンド、Call Of The Wildを結成（初代ドラマーはウィンガーのリーダーであったKip Wingerの弟であるNate Winger）するも同名バンドが既に存在していた為、バンド名を変名。クロスビーがラット結成前に活動していたバンド名であるSecret Serviceを使用しての活動を試み、プリ･プロダクション等の制作を数回行うが一切の音源発表に至らず。 尚、Call Of The Wild結成当初、当時ロスに移住したばかりの日本人ギタリスト、木暮“シャケ”武彦（RED WARRIORS）にバンド参加を要請した経緯があるが実現せず。その後、バンド名をSecret Serviceに変名後も激しいメンバーチェンジを繰り返す中に他の日本人らしきギタリストの参加記録もある程、日本びいきの傾向があった模様。 2m 近い身長のせいかニックネームは"KING"。その圧倒的な存在感と親しみやすい人柄からLAメタル界の"KING"として他のミュージシャンからも敬愛された。しかし、薬物中毒による注射器の使い回しが祟り、2002年にエイズにより死亡（闘病苦からの自殺説あり）。42歳。晩年は車椅子生活を余儀なくされていた。 メガデス（Megadeth）の中心人物であるデイヴ・ムステインがトレードマークとして使用し続けているギター（Jackson King V model）は元来、クロスビーのシグネチャーモデルとして開発されたモデルである。
