i believe he's playing a 1980 fender strat elite with karat electroplated hardware. i have one of the candy apple red ones from the same year. the tone controls and the painted neck where the tuning machines are make it a dead give away.... steve miller's guitar i mean... i didnt really see him use it tho lol. that other guy shreds like a beast tho
fucking ass-hole I get all drunk want to blast some good Ol' Jungle Love, but instead get some recording meant for people with sensitive ears er some shit; da fuck is this SHIT!!!
@Blueshenry Aw sarcasm; coming from a guy that fails to upload a video with an appropriate volume... kudos man kudos. You've been served by an alcoholic genius!
@Countrychiddler Why thank you for being chill dude and not a trolling dick like Blueshenry douche-face. You took me out of a stale mood and set me back in the mood for some good ol fashion rock. Now I'll rock n' roll up a dube with a lil hash stick and light it up; aint nothin gonna bring me down now. I don't have a cookie, but I'll give you my thumb.
This version is incredible. People need to get the fuck over the audio issues and enjoy a band that can actually play live and add some edge to the track. This is pretty damn tight.
the drummer looks like he's having a hard time keeping up with that guitarist...I don't know who that fucker is, but he seems pretty good despite the poor production values and a perhaps flashy, over-the-top display....
I actually love this version of the tune, probably my favorite actually. The dirty guitar sound is perfect and Kenny lee is just goin wild on it lol. At least it looks like kenny's having a blast, steve miller looks pissed and bored in all the shots they put up of him. Can't get enough of that guitar though, so nasty but he rips it apart!
yeah.. I would agree .. this guitarist has a pretty awful sound.... and he is waaay over the top...and kinda sloppy.. the bass sounds like he has a sock under the strings..
too much echo on Miller's voice.. but, then it all kinda falls together on the chorus..
over all, tho, pretty nasty sound.Other than that , tho.... just great.
I think the lead guitarist is a bit out of whack on this one, you can even tell Steve seems a bit irritated. If you want to here what this song should really sound like listen an original recording at MRBLAKFOX45.
maybe you should take this bullshit off here, live shows from the 80s are just plain horrible... just about every aspect of this is poor, especially the guitar effects; if your a fan on them why would you be showing this crap? you people are demeaning a great band by saying this is "Super good." this is definitely not super at all, this band has way more potential, i mean, have you not heard the album version of this song? kenny lee lewis really messed this song up...
@shimokita2 I know, it's the singer's phrasing, he sounds very stiff. And the guitar part sounds rather choppy and angular, too. It put me on edge. It's "makin' me crazy"!
They are playin fast because they are playin in Germany where the music scene is alot faster then here in the states, plus albums are engineered so they dont sound the same as bands live :)
@Toyahlean Thanks for the comment. I appreciate your insight, and it explains a lot. I guess I'm just not used to techno-pop remakes of stuff that we in the states consider as "standards", or at this point, "classics". But I guess that every artist adjusts the feel of his show for the venue.
First: it's too fast , tempo way off. The riff might be the same as the studio version, but it's to manic to tell. I can play this, but not this spastic.There is nothing worse than having to play a song twice as fast as it should be. I have never heard a good live version of this song. Too much studio magic?
You guys might not like Kenny Lee Lewis' guitar part here, but know this: He still tours with Steve Miller to this day. Also remember that it was the 80's, the decade of excess. Plus this song is pretty boring to play live, so I can see him wanting to dress it up a little. My biggest complaints are that they're not all tuned together and the tempo is too fast. PEACE
Use more effects, they sound great, much better than an Epiphone riviera through a pair of Duck amps straight with slide and loud,............ really, more effects........
The guitar player blows this because the original is done by Greg Douglas with an Epiphone Riviera and he uses slide intermittently. This "knack/ tommy tutone eddie VH knockoff" has little clue. Greg Douglas had great touch and wrote the tune.
This guitar part was written in Open "A" tuning and then the studio recording was sped up for the album, so it is a little difficult to pull off live since it just doesn't have the same "sound" as the album. Still some good guitar work here, though.
The other guitarist in my band actually emailed Greg Douglass and asked him how he played it. I always knew it was an alternate tuning of some sort, but never thought it'd be open "A". Once Mr. Douglass told him that, it was really easy to figure out. It's become a staple in our set, but we have to lug around a guitar that is only good for one song now! Maybe I need to look at the Variax more closely. LOL
