One of my favorite musicians ever. His outstanding sense of rhythm & melody put together is unparalleled, and is there across all his work. Great composer & guitarist being also an accomplished singer, pianist and drummer, and who knows how many other instruments. And more importantly, all of this with his own voice, his own signature, instantly recognizable. That’s difficult.
In a world of cut and paste, Nuno revives true musicianship. Amazing talent and feel. Welcome back Nuno. Not that you ever left, but that you finally get the respect you have always deserved as one of the greats.
Grew up as a drummer in bands when Extreme was one of my favorite bands. To this day...Pornograffiti is one of the guitar masterpiece albums of all time. Every second of Nuno's playing is exceptional. I've followed Nuno's brilliance ever since. Simply amazing work on everything, it's perfection. Speed, accuracy, phrasing, musicality, perfect 10.
Nuno is a Virtuoso with no limits. The musical fire and "passion" in his soul is what keeps him looking so young. Nuno's rhythmic articulation is similar to what a killer drummer would play. Nuno's use of melody, harmony and modes transcends the listener with new and refreshing sounds. Nuno is a one-of-a-kind musician that is aging like a "fine wine".
I’ve played guitar for over 30 years and somehow I’ve never listened to nuno before. Who knows why or how. This was the best. Ever. It’s like David gilmour playing fast. I got all the feels. But I can’t play this fast!!! I can only listen….
Nuno is one of the few guys who can do it all yet still sounds like only himself. He came about in a time when every guitar player was trying to sound like a combo of VH, Malmsteen, Vai ect. A time with many educated arpeggio kings and people trying to play as fast as they could. Nuno can do all of those things as well or better than the rest but still creates music and music that is originally his. Nuno is a freakin Gem of a guitar player and song writer.
Спасибо, Нуно за прекрасную музыку. В наши дни так нехватает прекрасного и светлого! Ты удивительный, волшебный бог гитары.Начало напомнило Кайовас из Сепултуры.
I live up in the Northeast - near where Nuno grew up. He has impressed me since I first heard him play when I was 17. To this day, he and Eddie Van Halen are my favorite guitarists. And, all of his work is constantly still in m6 rotation of regular listens: Each of the Extreme albums, Nuno's solo record (Schizophonic), Population 1, Dramagods, Mourning Widows, etc. I am beyond geeked up for this new album to come out. I already pre-ordered it. And, I have listened to "Rise" countless times, already. It's a great time to be a fan of this type of rock music. May Nuno and the other members of Extreme continue to keep it alive! We need MORE!!!

L ho sentita sabato all Alcatraz a Milano! Nuno mi hai fatto piangere...non credevo di potermi emozionare così tanto. Un sogno vederti dal vivo dopo 31 anni che attendevo. Nuno sei imparagonabile ❤❤❤
I'm approximately the same ages Nuno and I have to say growing up with his music and extremes music has been fantastic it's been the soundtrack to my life.
Mr. Nuno, just attended your concert in Reading, Pa. and you are WICKED TALENTED & "Worked Very Hard" to entertain the fans tonight !! LOVE when you said, THANK YOU for Standing the Fu*k UP for US !! Crown STOOD the entire performance, well deserved !!
First time I ever heard Midnight Express was at Donnington Monsters of Rock 94. I was 15 years old. My jaw dropped when I saw this. I eagerly anticipated the new Punchiline album to hear this genius again. Bought it first day it came into stores. Was and always will be inspired by this legend
Well, that was discouraging, as I picked my guitar after decades. Really thou, Nuno is absolutely Incredible. I’ve enjoyed everything I have heard. Keep Rickin. 🎸🎸🎸
I spent more than ten minutes thinking the right words to explain in a comment what Nuno's genius, talent, and creative expression mean to me, but I couldn't. Spending my whole life feeding on his music created something inside me that I can't explain; so I can only say: Thank you, Nuno.
I just found you after all these years n now can’t get enough of your playing. I’ve watched everything I could find on you and your so awesome and beautiful. I’m 1st Nation from 🇨🇦 you look almost like a 1st Nation…..your r so beautiful n handsome at the same time. 🌹♥️🇨🇦🦅🪶
Incrivel composicao e performances deste tema ao longo dos anos, sem palavras! Nota-se bem a influencia de musica tradicional Portuguesa❤ 'E um orgulho enorme ter-te como conterraneo! Obrigado pela partilha e continuacao de muito sucesso!!
Midnight Express - first heard it when I was in 8th or 9th grade - couldnt shut my jaws and share with my friends - i thut it was the coolest guitar piece ever !!! still wowd and still think the same - more than 25 yrs later
As a black teenager who loved all genre's of music, rock was definitely where I gravitated. When I first heard Nuno play I felt hypnotized! Dang!! My all time favorite guitarist, electric or otherwise. I still love music, especially classic rock. Love you Nuno. You seem to age very well.
My hero. I still can't forget the shock and awe I felt when I first heard Teacher's Pet in 1989. He always inspired me. The reason why I still have the N4 I bought in 1992 is that I still have a desire to be a musician like him.
I love Midnight express!!! 🎶 the guy playing there, his guitar 🎸 , his shirt 💯... I can watch this like 3 times everyday!!! Keep doing this please, Nuno! We all love you!!! ❤️
That was simply awesome, thank you brother \m/ Quick story : back in 1992 I fell in love with a little red guitar, sitting in a dealers window. Bit over my budget but worked my 14 year old ass off and bought it, despite the fact that it had a name in the headstock of a dude I'd never heard before. 29 years forward, it's still my baby, best guitar I ever owned and they've been quite a few. So thank you for that man and thank you even more for everything you have done musicaly. Stay safe brother
Midnight express is a gift to my ears and soul. I have been listening to It for about 10 years. Thank you!!!!!!!! There is something latin in this piece of music that is sooooo maravilhoso!
I can’t believe that I have known this guy’s playing for as long as I have. Seems like yesterday that I was riding around with my older brother in his Monte Carlo and blasting the pornograffiti album. We would cruise Elm street, Manchester, NH. Such a wonderful thing to live a life with great music.
The complete guitar player who can play anything and everything on acoustic and electric guitar to perfection effortlessly! Killer tone and melody too! My No.1 guitar hero forever!
Wow! Blown away! That is so amazing. Such a beautiful melody and your technique is legendary. Thank you, Nuno. You are such an inspiration. Likely more so than you could, or any human could, realize.

Nuno…やはりあなたは凄い！奇跡です。Nuno,you are miracle!!!!!!
Nuno still young. Unbelievable. He plays even better then 30 years ago. Fantastic.
Never heard something this be before and it was awesome
Nuno is ageless. He is like a fine wine he gets better with time.
Outstanding playing. One of the most unique guitarists of our time.
he is a BEAST of a guitar player..no one can touch him
@@seanc8420litening Shawn Lane... Buckethad...Jason Becker...Tony MacAlphine...Greg Howe...
@@seanc8420 there is always a guitarist that can do that one thing better than someone else
Hello Nunno! Your music change my life. Thanks
I dont know why people says he's underrated in the 90"s he's one of the best guitarist out there, my classmates idolized him
Likely because Nuno still isn't household name like EVH.
All I have to say is WOW! Nuno, you still rock!!! Legend.
5:06 just told me a whole story just with chords 😮
U have tons of fans here in Belfast Northern Ireland loved from early 90s when I was a little 13 year old
The man seems as young as in the 90's. He's playing is incredible, big influence on my playing.
Yes!! It’s kind of weird that I can see myself getting older than my teenage years idol…
Dorian grey????!!!!

In a world of cut and paste, Nuno revives true musicianship. Amazing talent and feel. Welcome back Nuno. Not that you ever left, but that you finally get the respect you have always deserved as one of the greats.
The passion is still alive and well in Meister Bettencourt I see ;)
Gracias por compartir tu música Nuno. Tan humilde y talentoso.🙌🏻 Saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷
Awesome, master, Chinese fans send praise.
Nuno, one of the best ever! Nothing more to say 👌
I don't know why but almost every night before I sleep I listen to this piece of yours which I find fantastic
Omg!!! Out of this world yet again. Love it

Somewhere there are millions of people needing to listen to this, and they don't know (yet).
Very well said!!
Oh my stars! I just discovered Nuno this morning and my musical life has been stood on it’s ear!
@@gordonnewman9037 enjoy!

He's been Cloned... He Is really a martian!!! I'm 59 and I remember seeing Nuno In my twenties.

Maravilloso. Desde que era una niña española con 17 años me enamoraste (y tengo 46!).
Gracias por hacer la vida más bonita.
I could watch this dude play forever! BRAVO!
Que homem talentoso e gatissimo!
There's not enough appreciation in the world for a guitarist who can play clean or dirty and sound absolutely phenomenal.
Nuno is one of the few guys who can do it all yet still sounds like only himself. He came about in a time when every guitar player was trying to sound like a combo of VH, Malmsteen, Vai ect.

Nuno is one of, if not THE MOST, underrated guitar players ever! What an absolutely BRILLIANT MUSICIAN! And he's just a Way Cool Cat. PHENOMENAL
He's highly "rated".
É impossível ver esse vídeo uma vez só. Meu Deus você é fabuloso. Eu nunca ouvi nada parecido. Você sempre será o cara!

Absolutely incredible as always! Much love! 🤘🙌
The most underrated guitar player in existence. I love Nuno!
I was just a kid when Nuno hit the scene - he has always been a phenom. We're both old men now lol - but he's looking and sounding as great as ever!

To anyone saying Nuno is underrated....you're higher than Nuno has ever been. Nuno is well known as one of the greatest that ever lived.

Everything that ever happened is underrated.

Você é um excelente músico, e assim que comecei a te ouvir mais de perto, você é incrível.

But nuno still looking like in his 20s something doesn’t match here😝
@@Mwhbmnabjms It's a Korean-style joke. It's called "Rawless Man."
For me its is like something iberian like flamenco flavors or portuguese music
Maybe corridinho a portuguese style
No other rock guitarist can touch his rhythmic prowess. Insanely on the beat...
Tommy Emanuel is a guy that comes close; both are legends
Al Di Meola
Neither are rock guitarists
John Frusciante
@@kamalsutra I’m inclined to agree, but Nuno is definitely more technical.
