Mr. Big with Richie Kotzen- Daddy, Brother, Lover, Little Boy

[Qserigala]

Good version"... Paul version speed drill"...Richie version exotic tone..hehe

[raymundogj]

Richie Kotzen can kiss Paul Gilbert's ass any day of the week. He did a lame job with Mr Big as well as he did with Poison. The kind of guitarist you can easily forget about.

[Suzisueful]

Someone throw Eric a sandwich! Man he's thin here! He looks like he could be snapped in half! Yikes!!! I know, he's put on a little weight since this, he looks better now! I was just shocked when I saw this... =/

[stevegrierson]

I meant "bluesy"

[stevegrierson]

RK is less pyrotechnic than PG. Both are superb guitarists. PG has more of a cartoony rock star sound (high gain and aggressive) RK is more blusey. Remember this aint Richies song, this his his best attempt at sounding like Paul Gilbert

[Suzisueful]

Wow, Eric is tiny, but he was super tiny here! Glad to see he's put on a little bit of weight since!

[NeverSurrender666]

I think the basic difference is that Kotzen just doesn't have the bollox - or sound that Paul does - As another guy says this does sound weak compared to the maestro's version!

[RyanB747]

Hmm.... It doesn't seem right without Paul, it just sounds like it's missing something. Oh well, Paul is back now, all is well ^^

[redclaims]

This version sucks. I miss energy from Kotzen and he shits the solo.

[rokcetboy]

kotzen rules



[vicenteroma]

But....... Much more groove in Richie's hands!!! hahaha

[walusgranaty]

Comparing Paul and Richie is nonsense, because Paul is not Richie, and Richie is not Paul.

[mhollandtag]

@walusgranaty

I agree 100 % .... !!!

[raceyro]

What a disgrace to this song! Kotzen is an armature compared to Paul! Terrible guitar tone and sloppy playing. Paul has perfect form and never misses a note.

[gnrcr]

I can admit Richie Kotzen is one great guitarist, but I have to say that I don't feel as much energy on his performance as I do with Paul's. When Paul plays this song it sounds freaking killer !!! This one sounds kind of weak and boring.

[mhollandtag]

@gnrcr

you also have to keep in mind that RK had only been performing live with Mr.Big for less than a month when this was recorded.... just sayin'.

[atteljas]

@gnrcr This sounds boring indeed!

[darciooo]

Paul Gilbert and Richie Kotzen two fantastic guitars! there is no comparison one with other!

[quibb666]

billy sheehan doesnt even need a drill! what a baddass motherfucker!

[vicenteroma]

Anyway, the drill is a Van Halen thing

[stuntguitar7]

@vicenteroma Nope! Eddie actually stole it from Paul Gilbert. It's a fact even Eddie says it.

[08ciana]

Mr. Big are Brilliant musician all of them. Eric, Billy, Pat, Paul and Richie. Best band!

[1118key]

ドリルは・・・・。

[toppoxpocky]

@1118key Are you fuckin' stupid or what? If RK used a drill it wouldn't be the RK style.. and i bet if he used it PG fanboys would go "PG did better" .. I'm so sick if this "PG-is-better-kotzen-is-better­" shit.

[xismellgoodx]

@toppoxpocky , theyre both fucking awesome. I prefer Paul overall , but Richie is fucking epic too!

[Stick2208]

@toppoxpocky ur right man, RK en Pg are both fckn great and are both in my guitarist top 10. BUT i think mr big sounds more agressive and filled up with PG on gtr ;) and the drill thing, that paul's thingy. if richie would do that, it'd be just as bad as a random RnB singer doing mj's moonwalk..

[polvani2]

Drills?

no way!

use your teeth

ruchie kicks ass

[Sebazuu]

kotzen！！！

[666SuzU]

コッツェンのだ！！

[mhollandtag]

yep ... or as I like to say ... Kotzen-fied!

[88Divine]

I like his take on the solo!
