The Garage Tape Dayz 78–81 is a compilation album of Mickey Ratt demos recorded between 1978 and 1981.

The lineup of Pearcy, Hager and Jellison on Bass, and Turner on Drums on "City To City" was the first to perform as Ratt but they would change it back to Mickey Ratt. The lineup featuring Pearcy, Jake E Lee, Matt Thorne, Dave Alford, & Bob DeLellis would be the last Mickey Ratt lineup before again shortening the name to Ratt for good in 1981.

Robbin Crosby was the first 'classic' member to join Pearcy.

Guitarists Jake E. Lee and Chris Hager, bassist Matt Thorne, and drummer Dave Alford went on to the band Rough Cutt.

Drummer Bob Eisenberg went on to become a member of an early line-up of Keel under the name Bobby Marks.
