"Treat Me Right" (#18/1981)
The third and final hit single taken from the Grammy-winning album Crimes Of Passion was "Treat Me Right," a song Pat Benatar wrote with former Doors studio bassist Doug Lubahn. Pat confessed, "I know this is one of the favorites but it was a bitch to sing. I did love the sentiment at the time though." Neil said he tried to make his guitar solo fit the song. "The format we chose at that particular time was if there was going to be a guitar solo, it had to be played with as much melody and intensity as possible, to carry the song after the vocal would stop. This song is an example of what we were trying to do." He added, "The solo's first note extends into the first note of the vocal chorus."
