  • Or sun child from Japanese gardens

  • Sunshine through Japanese gardens, funny lyrics

  • fuckin adverts

  • what a freaking treat!!! A definite blast from the past!!! Stumbled upon this guitarist while researching monika donneman...the music world is not the same from the earlier years of rock-n-roll. Uli does remind me of frank Marino, although Marino has a much fuller sound....what I can't deny is the fact this guy can play some good licks...love that fender strat...

  • @debihaley Thank you for tuning in & taking the time to comment, this guy is amazing but also such a humble man,!

    have a great week !

  • un dios de la guitarra de carne y hueso........

  • I was listening to a satellite station in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada in 1977 and could not believe what I was hearing! The best guitar rock I had ever heard! I loved Hendrix, Marino & Trower but this was the stuff for me. Who the hell was it? Fly To The Rainbow, In Trance & Virgin Killer all played back to back!!!!!!!!!!!WOW! I was hooked on Uli in a HUGE way! I still am !!! kneel malmsteen, you know what we all know............

  • GREAT!

  • jimi hendrix and ynwgie malmsteen had a baby.

  • @SMONDERISLAND Malmsteen was the baby! he came years way later!!

  • @SMONDERISLAND Malmsteen was the baby! he came years way later!!

    Don't forget Al Dimeola!!

  • @SMONDERISLAND MALMSTEEN IS A ROTH BABY , ROTH IS A HENDRIX / BEETHOVEN BABY

  • What a loss to Scorpions,don´t you think so? 

  • @CPE1784TKS I always say it

  • I don't know where the hell I've been in my 42 yrs., but man, Uli is ahead of his time here on this video. I mean, I heard his name here and there, but I never knew how good he was/is. Thanks for the share.

  • This is brilliant, I saw Electric Sun a few times in the early eighties, Uli jon Roth & Electric sun was just part of life. Thanks for posting the videos.

  • it would have been awesome to see them live back then!!! Great post!

  • Thanks AXE! One of the greatest guitarists of all time.

  • ... yes , electric sun was import vinyl ... i wonder what effects uli was using during this time ?

  • Respond to this video...  fantastic

  • he is so hot

  • @flowersallthetime thnx for tuning in!!

  • he was the best with scorpions but this is great too... woo killer song!

  • the German Hendrix

  • i was really on the fence the first time i heard this song, but i listened to it a couple more times and now i love it, never heard anything like it

  • Never knew Uli had ANY promo stuff. This stuff was pretty underground in the US when it came out. I had to buy the Japanese import version of Firewind when it came out.

    Cool vid fo sho.

  • epic, just epic!

  • Thanks for posting you are awsome Axe!

  • hes god

  • killer, i can't believe how much uli and frank marino sound so much alike, they are from the same era, hendrix freaks, don't want to be in a band, they will write and sing there own stuff, this is what i live for

  • @vanhalen515084 AMEN TO THAT,THNX FOR TUNING IN & COMMENT!

  • LE MAITRE

  • 3:13 Beautiful tone, beautiful phrasing, beautiful melody. Great guitarist.

  • Really a great song.

    *****

  • thanks!!!

  • @barouffas

    you're welcome man!

  • how's the name of that song?

  • you mean this song?

    Is on the title,name of this song is ELECTRIC SUN just like the name of Uli's Band!

  • High Zombie true real difference is Uli is a musician whilst Yngwie is a stunt guitarist, his main stunt being playing fast & putting in a 100 notes when it only needs a few.

  • I like him because he's still a trippy player. Difference between him and Malmsteen? Uli can actually write a song...My opinion.

  • Pure genius.

    The lyrics are awesome. He was so relieved to leave the Scorps & follow his heart.

    I love the Scorps with Uli, but let's face it, it was a strange lineup.

    For instance.

    Taken By Force. The song Your Life by Uli. Then the next song is He's a Woman She's a Man. It' goes from spiritual lyrics to lyrics about a shemale.

    Oh I was so sad, I thought I would go mad. But now I am free to take you into the fire of the Electric Sun.

    God I love and respect Uli.

  • Hey Chuck...I have to agree..Dont get me wrong...I'm a Scorps fan, but the musical direction had obviously shifted down to different paths....All is good though...The departure of Roth has resulted in them both doing there thing... which is great music on both parts..Cheers

  • @chucke1963 Uli inspires me every single day. I'm a singer but he's one of my favourite musicians.

  • Brilliant Video :)

    Thanks for posting

    Uli is a true Legend and never fails to blow me away!

  • i ve allways been a fan of uli since i've knowed his music

  • Uli is fantastic! Love this video! THANK YOU AXE!!!

  • You're very welcome!

    I appreciate your nice comment thank you much!

  • This comments are nic e because Ulrich Roth is the best and all these people love him for his great music which he do.

  • now i understand why they called him the german hendrix ...fantastic playing and so high technic and lyrics level

  • @jinjinou1 I love the fact that he's definitely a descendant of Jimi, but not in the sense that he just copied those voodoo blues licks, like a lot of other Jimi inspired cats.

  • I used to have the imports of 'Electric Sun' and 'Firewind' but . . . they went away. Someone should post "Sundown" or any other tunes from those albums.

  • I have posted practically both albums here,just type the songs titles on my homepage bar,& I have also posted live versions:

    ULI'S ELECTRIC SUN [ SUNDOWN ] AUDIO-TRACK

    ULI'S ELECTRIC SUN [ SUNDOWN ] PROMO VIDEO

    Thns for watching!

  • First Electric Sun song I heard, and still my favorite Electric Sun song.

  • Sounds like Mahogany Rush

  • Awesome, great video... I loved this album and only met one other person in Australia who had heard it... until now...how good is YouTube???

  • I bought this LP right when it came out as an import... that was the only way to get it back then. It wasnt released on a US label until it went to CD - which I also have. He is one of my all time favs w/out a doubt. This tune totally blew me and my friends away when we first heard it. Thanks for posting the video.

  • yeah,that's correct,I had to get mine the same way,still has the blue with wht letters import sticker on top right, I try to find a second CD but couldn't find anymore,I did get it but as an remasted Import!

    Great Album!

    thnx for your comment!

  • first time I heard his voice was in Scorpions - Hell Cat!

    awesome track! thanks! :)

  • When did they shoot this video?

  • don't know exactly but I'm thinking 1979!

    this album was released in 1979!

  • Thanks!

  • His voice is not the greatest, but neither was Jimi Hendrixes and he was one of ULi's idols

  • His name is Uli Jon Roth and he is extraordinary musician !!! All respect to Uli !!!

  • Pitty that the song 'Indian Dawn'is nowhere on youtube, had hoped to find it on the best off album, but wasnt there,,..a copy i couldnt get anymore in my local store..

  • Have you seen this,Uli changed a little bit I posted it in 2 parts:

    ULI JON ROTH & FRIENDS [ LAND OF DAWN,PART 1 ] LIVE,2007

  • Uli gives light to my soul, his music is SO GREAT! I love his guitar playing, both in Scorpions and solo.

  • Thank you for your comment!

  • The ending is phenominal! I had a friend back in 1980 who had one tatoo. ULI and a cross. I asked him why did you do that?! He replied, I love Uli and God.

  • @peaceonearth777 So basically he just loved Uli.
