how one man can have so much talent is a crime. This had to be the most underrated, underappreciated, and under-exposed musician in the rock today. the guy is a fucking musical genius. For my money - the best there is.
Hi, I am from Germany and a lot of people love the music from this guy...keep on playing guitar, write your songs and....dont forget your voice!!!!! He´s one of the best...
I had never heard of Kotzen before he joined Poison back in the mid to late 90's. After that, he did some work with Mr. Big, but then he seemed to fade into obscurity. I never knew he was this good until I happened across these videos. I can't believe some of his work isn't mainstreem. If it is, then I guess I have never heard it. This is really good music; I am tempted to go out and find a Richie Kotzen CD now.
Ritchie you have a great voice and I'm glad you didn't just stick to being a guitar shredder. Its hard for me to say that because I'm a guitar player/shredder too. You are one of the best guitarists in the world. I've heard your first couple of guitar albums, they're beyond phenomenal. But man, you can really write a song! and sing so soulfully, it would be a mortal shame to see this talent gone to waste, just only being a guitarist forever. Love your work dude.
How can you possibly dislike this...? Slash was the reason I started playing guitar, Vai and Gilbert have been my motivation to keep getting better, and Kotzen is my inspiration to never stop playing!
@IAIN19760 thanks bro! I'm not aware of his acoustic album, probably I've heard the loose songs. His albums over here are quite scarce and expensive, so I hope to buy a few from him during his gig in early November :))
qst canzone purtroppo mi ricorda 1 gran pezzo di stronzo(x nn essere volgari) ke si voleva fare lo splendido ma in realtà nn era nulla di kè...sl ke nn mi piace essere presa in giro....e fra parentesi sta canzone fa cacare e ki vuol capire capisca....idiota nn sai qll ke hai perso ....e spero ke qll ke hai guadagnato ti faccia stare male cm hai fatto stare male a me...
nessuno ti ha chiesto di leggere il mio commento.... qnd inutile sarà il tuo di commento xkè fino a prova contraria posso scrivere qll ke voglio e se nn ti sta bene fatti gli affari tuoi ke è pure meglio.....-.-
Fino a prova contraria i commenti vanno alla canzone. Per i fatti tuoi ti apri un blog. Che ti faccia cagare il pezzo perchè un ragazzo t'ha mollata non è cosa da mettere in pubblico. Non c'entra con Richie Kotzen. Quindi ribadisco: hai scritto una cosa inutile.
Fino a prova contraria si può scrivere qualsiasi cosa e se voglio scrivere ke qst canzone mi ricorda una cosa negativa e ke qnd nn la sopporto nn devono essere affari tuoi ..e se come dici tu i commenti vanno sulla canzone xkè commenti una mia frase??pertanto il tuo commento oltre a essere INUTILE è pure incoerente...
Richie is a unbelievable talent, most people don't relate to true talent, they would rather listen to crap, thats why some people like him sometimes get overlooked I guess. Freakn genius
Damn, Richie Kotzen is really one of the most talented guys from that genre -let's just be plane about it and just admit he's a friggin' dynamo of talent...amazing! It's not fair that he's not bigger.
so true elderbear92, what a songwriter. singer AND guitarist... he should be bigger than many country blues pop mainstream people. He is so much better than boring Urban or gimmicky Paisley!
This is one of ma favourite ballads from him. I have been to his concert and he was awesome, his music is a wonder,his playing is incredible...he has a gift
You saw him in the Netherlands, and I missed it???? whhaaaaaa how is that possible..... I must have been looking the other way, or had a couple of drinks too many..... such a shame.
Ja ik zag het op zijn officiële site, had net even gekeken, en nu baal ik helemaal als een stekker, is volkomen langs me heen gegaan, jammer maar misschien volgende keer beter...
