Your are absolutely right my good 88 year old grandpa. Let’s stick to Justin Bieber or Marilyn Monroe, so we can be sure that we aren’t looking at something like this.
@ABshookme I guess you never listened to the original, it does not matter who plays or who is playing the instrument ........... it is the performance and i prefer that mr big keep their hands off this classic !
@viper88i You can bet your ass had they played this song "straight"(meaning no switching instruments) they would have put the original version to shame.
@Franzenstein1 lol, better live??? Paul is a much better rock player than Steve Morse, and Pat Torpey and Billy Sheehan are in another league than Ian Paice and Roger Glover!
Ian Gillan's voice isn't good nowdays, and so is Erics. But Mr. Big is for me the best rock band today, technically and from their songs. They combine melody and technique! Vocal harmonys like Queen and Beatles.
for a guy that makes Jon Lord Burn organ solo sounded so easy on the bass why couldn't he do Ritchie Smoke on the Water solo on the guitar the same way... i don't get it
@SteveMorse32 not with guitar. billy is a bass god, but at guitar he isnt as good as dave. dave's a kickass guitarist. one of the best metal guitarist ever.
I dig the "Mr."...no doubt, they rock....it would be insane if Richie were added to the mix...I've seen him jam with Paul, and he has stated that BS is his favorite "rock" bassist....C'mon, guys!! Get it on!!...The ONLY thing that I would like to see is....well..Eric is a GREAT vocalist, but not very charasmatic...maybe that's his gig, but THAT voice....c'mon!! *LOL*
Even after all these years the talents of Billy Sheehan (and really the entire band) still amaze me. That being said the much smaller guitar looked kinda strange in the master bassists' hands. What a fun clip.
WOW! I don't think I've listened to 'Smoke On The Water' all the way through in 20 years (just one of those songs that as great as it is --- Freebird? --- just heard it too many times) but tha was incredible. This band probably has the most amount of pure musical talent in music history (and that's not even including the '5th' member - the GREAT Richie Kotzen)
I know Lars Ulrich might not be the best drummer in the world (and I have no idea who is) and he's probably a dick in real life (I can't tell either, I don't know him in person), but saying he's the worst drummer ever is extremely stupid. Have you ever listened to And Justice For All? ...
Just great....I think the best thing about this vid is that is shows how much fun they're having! Props to Eric Martin, as I didn't know he had non-vocal chops...always knew Pat could sing, but Billy could front most of the crap bands today...Paul...well...I'd been following him since his GIT days....Damn good fun!! If they turned the 4 into 5 and brought Richie K. back in....SWEET JESUS!! :-)
@jumpingjames1 its kirk hammett and i wouldn't say that. i mean on guitar. my comment didn't meant to harm metallica, i think they are an awesome band, and i was only kidding with comparing paul and lars, however paul does a great job in this vid, but lars also had some great moments.
