Putting a REAL musician like Richie Kotzen in this band was akin to bring a fucking tank to a slapfight. Rikki's fiancee left him because the dude is one of THE dumbest motherfuckers still aloud to use electricity. And as for CC. EVERY damn solo is the same. He cant find his way out of a scale for more than 2 notes before going back. Best album they ever did and all of it's singles were Kotzens. I hate to inform all of Bret's fans but he became the 2nd best vocalist when RK joined.
If you're going to call someone dumb, at least learn how to distinguish between different spellings of similar words. Allowed rather than aloud. Kotzen CHOSE to join Poison, he wasn't forced, and it did wonders for his career, as he has himself acknowledged. He was a better guitar player than CC. So what... if guitar skill defined success, Al Di Meola would be bigger than Jesus.
Love this footage from their London show & DVD! Richie is amazing and so elevates this band. They were damn lucky to have him. What an incredible songwriter, singer & musician.
He has more talent than all of them and they were miffed the girlfriend was just a reason to fire him, face it maybe the girlfriend was unhappy with the drummer and RK could satisfy her sexual talent
check out the big ring on his finger?
they made a mistake RK is SO the guitar monster way better chops
what a huge mega difference from this version to the one they did with CC in 2003..that version is a fucking joke and CC doesn't deserve to play a song written by kotzen..he blows smoke rings around CC and CC smokes cock as a player..he isn't even a player he's just drug and booze hound with an ego the size of texas, which is ironic because he stinks like a dead corpse rotting in the sun.what ever compelled them to play this with CC is beyond me.maybe bret's insulin is effecting his brain cells!
Richie is sooo intense, he's playing and the fact that poison were the kings of so much sexual excess yet he gets kicked out of poison because he slept with the bass player's girlfriend...way to go
I'd like to have this but I Wiki'd it last night to get the track listing and I pretty much have zero interest in any of the songs not written by Kotzen - despite a few superior solos on otherwise inferior songs.
Your dead right about that.Kotzen's presence alone made the rest of the band not only sound better but play better.Richie Kotzen is an amazing singer & a brillant guitarist-
I feel sorry for Richie, he's such a monster talent, finding a place to fit must have been bloody hard; not only is he a monster player - he's actually even a better singer than Bret!
Gotta suck when you ruffle feathers without even trying ...
He had very nice tone and great guitar technique but I think he should have thought twice about screwing the drummers fiance. Not too hard to figure that might "ruffle feathers".
not completely true. rikki has broken up with his fiancee BEFORE richie got with her. he was really open about it to rikki and the whole band and told them right after it happened.
Defenitly...Richie Kotzen is an allround musician, He can play any style viruoso-like and he is a good singer as well...not to forget his songwriting capabilities. Richie is one underrated fella!
Ive listen some of his solo songs and then with greg howe and he is amazing. Also is nice to listen him playing some kind of blues solo, most of time he is playing jazz or fusion
MEjor che banda de todos los tiempos, con CC, conn Blues o con Kotzen, Poison es y sera le majore de todas las bandas. Long live the glam slam kings of noise!
ahora,personalmente prefiero a blues saraceno,ya que es mas divertido e interactua con los fans,como lo hacia cc,en chile,argentina y brasil,la critica y los fans,quedaron impresionados con blues,le dio otra aire a poison,traten de conseguirc el show en obras(argentina),el entusiasmo y la alegria que demuestra durante todo el concierto es increible,yo aun lloro cuando lo veo y me da una impotencia haberme perdido cuando vinieron a chile el 93...bueno solo era un niño de 13 años.
estoy de acuerdo!! blues saraceno hizo un trabajo increible con poison. escuchaste "crack a smile"?? como suena esa guitarra loco!! que sonido, vibrato y feeling tiene blues!!! DONDE PUEDO CONSEGUIR EL SHOW EN OBRAS????? si te interesa, podemos hacer un intercambio: tengo el show con blues en rio de janeiro entero en mp3 ;)
de todos los shows que tengo de poison,este es sin lugar a dudas el mas malo,no en el sonido,si no que en la actitud de la banda,c ven sin gracia,tocando casi por obligacion,este video queda demostrado que kotzen no era el guitarrista que poison necesitaba,fome,sin sentido del humor,incluso los comentarios de los criticos apuntan a kotzen,como un gran cantante y guitarrista,pero completamente falto de gracia,cc no paraba de jugar y animar al publico y kotzen solo c dedica a tocar,un asco kotzen
I highly recommend any fans pick up this DVD, Seven Days Live. It's outstanding and I can't articulate what Richie does to the old Poison songs, even the garbage from Open Up has a completely new, bluesy edge to it. The DVD is really, really dated and I think Richie is wearing women's trousers in the beginning but it's well worth the effort to find this DVD.
por favor subilos cuanto antes yo tambien espero con ansias!! uno de los mejores guitarristas, cantante y compositor.. si no el mejor,, tuve la oportunidad de verlo en bs as y sacarme una foto con el y eric martin. 2 grosos, gracias por subir este video! saludos
This is the best guitar work I ever heard from this band
