I enjoy listening to duff. He comes across as a guy who realises how lucky he is to be alive and to get a second chance in life and with guns n roses still being so popular. And to have a happy family. Good luck to him.
totally share your sentiments. Jonesy is 100% "London Cool" oratory with not insignificant dusting of relaxing elocution style & calm confident command of his mother tongue typically indicative of the relative quality of the education system once upon a time back when the ranks of talented teachers were abundantly stocked with locked & loaded live ammo proven methods 4 solid learning 3R outcomes inc. corporal punishment not least such that a disaffected truant street urchin from the 60s & 70s fond of "nickin' stuff" & all other types of rebellious wrong ide of tracks skull-duiggery can also not infrequently pull upon the most tasteful top shelf elegantly stoned "decorum " & eloquence, proper table manners, flattery & charm simultaneously delivered whilst sneakily taking the piss with dry as a chip metaphoric irony dusted off with a not infrequent refreshing capacity 4 brazenly honest revelations of measured self deprecation & authentic shows of grounded humility that equally makes no apologies in healthy respect for the proud ego of one who not only was a certain "famous someone" from the golden age of rock n roll but who now clearly still is kinda "someone" that somehow miraculously managed to survive after living through the eye of a violent hurricane vortex of what essentially is an extended period of wild & unhinged ultra hedonism as a destructive cultural change agent whatever be the nihilistic rock n roll swindle moment in true Dionysian times past under the microscope topic of rolling unscripted candid discussion conducted totally on the fly with scant chronological details now often barely recalled by the rose coloured sensory shades of Steve's synapses flicker & fire 2 faintly form a persuasive point of view about something of genuine intrigue no doubt boundlessly interesting tales from the bottomless bag of infinite artistic creativity, hard core debauchery & rolled gold scandal, ripping yarns with endless appeal & why ?? They're told with real heart.
Agreed. Duff always surprised me with how well-spoken, intelligent and humble he is (both he and Slash)... maybe I expected him to be kind of a burn-out?
Slash was the coolest but I was Izzy in grade 5 airband and it was the best day of my life thus far at 41 I'll never stop listening to gnr they will always be in my heart..thanks
Rock n roll is in its 60s now... lived a hard life had its ups and downs- been through rehab. Not aging gracefully in some ways but still has all kinds of possibilities and a future. Always young at heart
I'm reading Duff's book right now - It's So Easy and other Lies - he's as engaging and interesting a guy in print as he is here in person being interviewed. Very enjoyable.
So thankful I got to see these two with Neurotic Outsiders at the Viper Room (twice) back in the day! The lines were around the block to get in and they always had tons of celebs show up.
The Viper Room is one of my favorite stages to play in LA. Ive played there as a drummer and I love how tight the stage is. It keeps the energy of the band in one spot of the venue so it can supercharge the crowd!
Destruction was the last proper hard rock record. Grunge and shogazers filled a void for a while. Then came Radiohead and the like. I consider myself to be lucky. From ethnic sounds, Metal, Punk, Reggae , FuturePop. To Jazz, Funk and Classical. Love it all. I was 5 when George Harrison released My Sweet Lord as a single and i was hooked. Good music will never die.
I heard Jonesy interview Robbie Krieger and he asked about "tie dye" clothing.Jones knew little about the style but seems to have embraced it full on.The guy's a riot!
I bought the Neurotic Outsiders cd, still have it. GREAT album. Wish they'd do another one. The tracks on the EP that followed are great and need to be re-released.
Duff McKagan is a fucking legend! One of my favourite musicians ever. His autobiography is one of the most insane books I've ever read but left me with a whole new respect for this dude. Had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with him once and he's just as genuine in real life as he comes across in interviews. Hope to hear new G'N'R music this year Duff man! R'n'F'n'R :-)
Big Shannon Hoon/Blind Melon fan. I had no idea the benefit concert for Nico was Duff's first sober show. Being sober at a gig your doing for a friend who recently died of a OD was probably pretty eye opening for him at that time. Thanks for sharing Duff.
I love your “ Tie Dye” sweat suit. It reminds me of you and Robbie Kreigors talk about tie dyes. I can’t spell. You jam Duff. Congrats on your sobriety .Duff is the hardest working man in show business .
If you define rock as a band with electric guitars with lots of distortion. Than there hasn’t been a NEW band in years. Thank god there are plenty of rockers we 50+ people grew up with!! Rock & Roll will NEVER DIE!! 🤘🏽🤘🏽
Duff's bass sound and bass playing is immediately unidentified. Great player who's bass lines get stuck in your head Had no idea Chad and him and the other character wrote and played on the new Ozzie. Great tracks
As the only teenager in my area that loves rock n roll, it's sad to see that the only people who share my passion are mostly older adults who believe rock is dead for good. It's so sad to see what's become of the music scene in general. If I wear a band shirt in public, I get laughed at for it and people make you "name three of their songs" to prove you're a real fan. I get laughed at daily for listening to "old people music" or "a bunch of dead guys." On one hand, we have the people who think they're better than everyone else because they only listen to mainstream music, and on the other hand, we have the people who think they're better than everyone else because they don't listen to mainstream music. It's so hard to find people with not only your same musical taste but musical attitude. Personally, it's really funny when someone tells me I can't possibly listen to rock music because I'm only 15. It really sucks that to be a musician you have to be the pretty blue-eyed blondie who can hit all the high notes. No one lets music be music anymore. Rock n roll s my one true passion, but society doesn't allow rock musicians to have a chance anymore.
You are right about all that and it’s why I think this society not just in music but also film, tv and entertainment media in general has been degenerating for decades! As the years go by it seems as though originality, true uniqueness is lost or ridiculed and conforming to act, look, talk and use social media in the same mannerisms and aesthetics is praised. You can easily say f off to those people and have many reason to justify why you don’t associate with them!
To this day , One of the absolute best Punk Bands I’ve ever seen Neurotic Outsiders RPM Toronto 1995/6 ? So good , and they looked fantastic probably at the peak of their lives ... 10/10 A Superb Album
I see Duff rockin the Prince hat. Had it not been for Duff always soeaking so highly of Prince, i prolly would have never listened again with an open mind. Thank you Duff, Purple Politicians raise your hands!!
I almost stood in line to get into the Viper Room one Saturday night back in 2005, but everyone was dressed in black and I was in khaki's and an arctic blue LL Bean ski jacket.
I dont mean to be offtopic but does anyone know of a way to log back into an instagram account? I was dumb forgot the password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me!
What could keep the rock train going is to have the kids who like the older artists and songs to form new bands and recreate the classics, still have hope that out of nowhere a bunch of new artists will come about to try and bring back that vibe and shot in the arm the music scene desperately needs, rock isn't dead it can still be found on media outlets and has recently been made into movies, but man! a garage band would sure be nice to hear about these days.
Rock isnt dead. Whats wrong with Rock is that it isn't mainstream enough like it was back in the 70s-90s. People blame the younger generation for only liking rap music, but thats not the case because many teens fell in love with Queen and Motlëy Crüe when they had their movies out and their songs became trending again (so much so that it made crüe go on tour again). I believe that there needs to be a band like Van Halen or Led Zeppelin (not music wise) that redefines the genre again, and give it something original and new for this generation. Someone can argue that Greta Van Fleet is a hot band for this generation, but it sounds too much like Led Zeppelin, and they will always be condemned like a Led Zeppelin "copy". If some dudes can make something new and likable, rock will come back stronger than ever.
Covid Vaccines are more popular than rock. Rock is dead and Axl is full of soy. The reunion never should have happened because he's using the band to destroy its own legacy.
@@TheKitchenerLeslie Man are you serious? Vaccines are more popular because its a VACCINE to help fight off a deadly pandemic that is currently happening.
viper room had the same band play recurring Mondays? Before it was Viper Room it was called The Central, and they also had a band play recurring Mondays. It was Chuck E. Weiss and the Goddamned Liars. Saw em at least once
check 1996 Neurotic Outsiders album, The song Better Way" (Jones, John Taylor) " contains my favorite line ...why its so hard to climb when its so easy to slide"
I’m 16 and a HUGE gnr fan and it does suck to see how musical value has become little to none in today’s music and I’m hoping classic rock has a comeback in the future...
Aidan Rix don’t worry. I am 40 years old and I can confirm that there was always a whole load of rubbish music in every decade. It’s just that the good stuff continues on in people’s memories, whereas the rubbish stuff is forgotten. There’s great music happening now just as there was “back in the day”, it just takes the passage of time for great new music to become classic music.
Ojala el publico de Guate se porte bien a la altura para que sigan llegando artistas de este calibre. Muchos rockeros se van tan lejos como Chile e ignoran a Guate por no tener un buen lugar ni alguien que los promueva. Que lo disfruten!
I love Duff, and always love listening to him - but this is a shit title for the interview. Was hoping he'd mention a few bands he's into now. You barley discussed the status of rock these days. There are quite a few great rock bands, Dirty Honey, Rival Sons, Myles and the boys, the list is actualy quite long. Sorry to be negative, the title was just misleading.
@@hotlanta35 I'm not into "real metal" or "new metal" - but there are several new rock bands that have something new with old blues roots to offer. Dirty Honey, which GNR supports, South of Eden - very new with little on the the web to show but I can't wait to hear more, RIval Sons...I'm pretty old school so that's all I've found that I love!
@@BLUEMONDAY99 Take a look at the charts and compare the number of guitar bands to 30, 40, 50 years ago. As I said already, it's not dead but it's no longer the force that it was.
My theory is that a) It's "too hard" and "takes too long" to be truly great at an instrument (everyone's excuse). Nowadays you can just fake it with technology. b) Back in the day, you HAD to be good live, so people would tell other people to go see you at the club. Today, since everyone makes music, and the internet exists, there is too much shit to choose from and it's far too diluted. There is probably another GNR caliber band out there, but how the hell do you find them? Most young people avoid seeing random bands play original music at the bar these days, and quite frankly I don't blame them as most of them suck. c) Influences - as time goes on, new bands influence new bands, and older influences start to fade unless kept alive!
Now you're getting into the philosophy of the life of rock n roll,I've thought this before. I'm curious as to what,or if you've come across anything nowadays that is in the same vein of gnr,or rolling stones or something. Because I have come across quite a few modern hair bands,but it's just so gay,unlike the ones from the 80's wich there were a few then that peoplethought were gay,but these guys now take it to a whole new level. And you got those kids that sound like zepplin,but that's just it we all know who they're ripping off. And so called what's consided rock now has taken so much influence from the whiny grudge crap. It makes me just fucking sad hearing that shit,like the seether type crap you best believe there's a new version of those type of bands every day. You can look up modern rock playlist and it'll just be nothing but those guys,I once thought Attila would bring it back a little at the very beginning,but of course they went more Down their grindcore rap way,to appease the fans.
@@ryandlion6961 Most modern music lacks the blues influence, and that is the major issue. The badass rock and roll sound comes form the blues. You don't even need to listen to actual "blues" but those beautiful string bends with epic feeling definitely come from that time period. It's extremely difficult to play like this so most people skip it. But guys like Clapton? Slash? It's all they knew... My own band Night Mission is directly influenced by Iron Maiden/Queensryche. Our singer is the x-factor, he can actually sing and hit those high notes. Metal has devolved into blowhard growling because again, it's too hard to actually sing, so any asshole can scream into a mic and bam, you have a "front man."
Rock and roll is NOT dead. Bands are still putting up posters, playing for a pizza and some beers. The difference is that rock and roll just doesn`t have the monopoly anymore. But there are great rock bands out there. You just have to search deeper to find them. And that`s what rock and punk was all about, wasn`t it?
Here come the "rock music is not dead you just have to look for it" comments.

I love it too, because they point to bands that either A. are simply copying older bands styles or B. Are somewhat experimenting, but in the same light, are just doing what has come before with modern elements strapped on, so nothing really new. I can't count how many people tell me to look up bands that are underground, thinking they are unique and different, yet, being older myself, I'll be like "This shit was done decades ago by Sonic Youth, Melvins or Bauhaus or Joy Division....whats so special about it?" Oh you have a heavy, distorted band with bluesy riffs, you mean Pentagram or Black Sabbath? Ok cool, nothing new then. "Hey Look, this rock band has a lot of electronics mixed in!" Oh you mean like Nine Inch Nails? I know it makes me sounds like an old person bitching, but I listened to rock (and other genres) for decades because it was new and exciting, it tried different things, now that doesn't seem to be the case. It seems it went from break your new sound into the public domain to sign the deals, bow to the labels just to make that buck because you don't want to live in a shithole.
I much prefer those to the standard "rock died 20/30/40 years ago" - typical response from boring old geezers who simply stopped listening to new music 20/30/40 years ago.
These two are so funny. As cool as he is and with his commercial success far exceeding Jones', I'll bet he still sits there a bit in disbelief, thinking this is the guitar player from the fucking Sex Pistols! Forever the fan. Much love to Duff and Steve.
out here in the great northwest we're still playing classic rock covers we do GnR we do Aerosmith we do tons of classic rock and the audiences eat it up. its not the most popular music Ill admit but we draw crowds and people love us. rock isn't dead its just not the mainstream genre its rap and had been since the death of MTv. rock n roll will lever forever!!!
@@mjh5437 it's a joke the band is called Greta Van fleet and it's that Zeppelin cover band actually they don't do Zeppelin songs they just sound exactly like them except for a really bad version
Rock is not dead for sure. Music stations play their own genre & kids eventually develop their own taste as they grow up. UK, Germany, Eastern & Northern Europe still has a great live scene. Believe Australia & Japan likewise. It does seem sadly the U.S perhaps has seen a drop off in recent years but it will come back. O2 London now the planet's busiest live music venue many rock acts so not all bad for sure.
@@bonnerscott5374 this is spooky I'm here listening to sabbath dvd gathered in there masses and on the song fairies wear boots when ure reply came in on my phone. That's not a lie.
Social media and lack of musical experimentation has killed rock n' roll. Live music culture was cool to be involved in at many levels, it was never meant to be a vapid culture of cool.
@@nox4298 music is now defined as "intellectual property" and as such is one of the most gaurded items that has no physical presence, has no metter and is truly just a collection of agitated layers of air. Yet if I was to, without asking permission or paying for the privilege for doing so, put out a version of 'Paint it Black' writen originally by the Brian Jones of Rolling Stones fame both his family and the bands legal team would be well within their rights to sue me for theft of intellectual property; that such attitudes or behaviour wasn't a part of the country blues tradition doesn't stop it being were the Stones stole lots of their sound from, in fact Kieth Richards said as much in his book "Keith" but feel free to dispute this further.
I've always liked Duff, his solo album rocked. On the topic of has rock died...Well, it was murdered by grunge in the 90's but it is slowly making a comeback. You can catch great new stuff on Sirius XM Octane and Liquid Metal and if you just want to settle back into comfy fun hair metal...Pluto TV (FREE APP) has a radio station called The Strip and they play so many good songs, you don't even need to skip any. Long live Duff and G'N'R.
I worked with Chris Spedding. He said Jones was the shit. Solid guitar player. Chris Thompson made him do 23 guitar tracks on each song on the Bollocks lp. He played all the rhythm and leads exactly the same every time. Thompson mixed them all into one sound. Spedding says Jones is a great guitar player, always has been.
Lol! " i was like a toddlers brain @ that stage , I mean *neurons were still connecting* for sure! " ... Ha ha ha! That "neuron stil connecting" line really got me!_/.. I understand the feeling mate! I understand! Ha!
I enjoy listening to duff. He comes across as a guy who realises how lucky he is to be alive and to get a second chance in life and with guns n roses still being so popular. And to have a happy family. Good luck to him.
Dont forget velvet revolver and hes solo stuff..
You called it.
He seems like quite a humble and reasonable man
Fortunate, not lucky. He's not one of these conceited "its a miracle I'm alive" type of guys. He's more down to earth than that

Both of these men are very fortunate to still be with us. They survived their R&R fantasy.
but it happened...wouldn't that make it reality and not fantasy?
I still look back on The Sex Pistols 2007 gig when Steve opens on Pretty Vacant. Just effin awesome.
winstoneism Yes, but because it was so short and sweet, it was so memorable and intense as the punk genre was.
Slash was the coolest but I was Izzy in grade 5 airband and it was the best day of my life thus far at 41 I'll never stop listening to gnr they will always be in my heart..thanks

There’s great music happening now just as there was “back in the day”, it just takes the passage of time for great new music to become classic music.
13:10 Guatemala 🙏🤘
Ojala el publico de Guate se porte bien a la altura para que sigan llegando artistas de este calibre. Muchos rockeros se van tan lejos como Chile e ignoran a Guate por no tener un buen lugar ni alguien que los promueva. Que lo disfruten!
GUNS ROSES IN Guatemala 2020 🇬🇹🇬🇹🇬🇹🎸🤘🤘
Oh me gosh.Duff made Steve look like an Easter bunny!2 of the best!😄😃😀❤❤❤
Rock is not dead; it just smells that way.
That's like saying Jazz is not dead.
Come on man you are in denial..I wish it wasn't but seriously...
@@peaceonearth351 Franz zappa.... "just smells funny"
I love Duff, and always love listening to him - but this is a shit title for the interview. Was hoping he'd mention a few bands he's into now. You barley discussed the status of rock these days. There are quite a few great rock bands, Dirty Honey, Rival Sons, Myles and the boys, the list is actualy quite long. Sorry to be negative, the title was just misleading.
Agreed. I would like to know the opinion of veteran rockers on this subject. Last ten years everything mainstream is pop, rap and country. Sad times.
That's because there is none..same with real metal.
@@hotlanta35 Yeah the worst for real metal. Only death metal and "progressive " type metal now.
@@hotlanta35 I'm not into "real metal" or "new metal" - but there are several new rock bands that have something new with old blues roots to offer. Dirty Honey, which GNR supports, South of Eden - very new with little on the the web to show but I can't wait to hear more, RIval Sons...I'm pretty old school so that's all I've found that I love!
Rock music is alive an well..

It's not dead but it's no longer the force that it was. And it never will be again.
That’s impossible to say for complete certainty.
@@nox4298 I've said it so it's not impossible to say.
@@BLUEMONDAY99 Take a look at the charts and compare the number of guitar bands to 30, 40, 50 years ago. As I said already, it's not dead but it's no longer the force that it was.
John Stewart I agree rock doesn’t give us rebels anymore that era is long gone and dead now we have terrible greta van fleet.
@@BLUEMONDAY99 How many of those bands were truly original though, offering something new? How many had really, really great songs?
Rock is not dead it's just the beginning of a new awakening!!!! Rock n Roll
corndog1868 R.I.P ROCK 🤗🤗
@@dannyanime3468 Good music never dies
My theory is that
a) It's "too hard" and "takes too long" to be truly great at an instrument (everyone's excuse). Nowadays you can just fake it with technology.
b) Back in the day, you HAD to be good live, so people would tell other people to go see you at the club. Today, since everyone makes music, and the internet exists, there is too much shit to choose from and it's far too diluted. There is probably another GNR caliber band out there, but how the hell do you find them? Most young people avoid seeing random bands play original music at the bar these days, and quite frankly I don't blame them as most of them suck.
c) Influences - as time goes on, new bands influence new bands, and older influences start to fade unless kept alive!
Now you're getting into the philosophy of the life of rock n roll,I've thought this before. I'm curious as to what,or if you've come across anything nowadays that is in the same vein of gnr,or rolling stones or something. Because I have come across quite a few modern hair bands,but it's just so gay,unlike the ones from the 80's wich there were a few then that peoplethought were gay,but these guys now take it to a whole new level. And you got those kids that sound like zepplin,but that's just it we all know who they're ripping off. And so called what's consided rock now has taken so much influence from the whiny grudge crap. It makes me just fucking sad hearing that shit,like the seether type crap you best believe there's a new version of those type of bands every day. You can look up modern rock playlist and it'll just be nothing but those guys,I once thought Attila would bring it back a little at the very beginning,but of course they went more Down their grindcore rap way,to appease the fans.
@@ryandlion6961 Most modern music lacks the blues influence, and that is the major issue. The badass rock and roll sound comes form the blues. You don't even need to listen to actual "blues" but those beautiful string bends with epic feeling definitely come from that time period.
It's extremely difficult to play like this so most people skip it. But guys like Clapton? Slash? It's all they knew...
My own band Night Mission is directly influenced by Iron Maiden/Queensryche. Our singer is the x-factor, he can actually sing and hit those high notes.
Metal has devolved into blowhard growling because again, it's too hard to actually sing, so any asshole can scream into a mic and bam, you have a "front man."
I believe Duff also sings Seattle Head by the Neurotics.
Duff is the Best 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I was there♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Rock and roll is NOT dead. Bands are still putting up posters, playing for a pizza and some beers. The difference is that rock and roll just doesn`t have the monopoly anymore. But there are great rock bands out there. You just have to search deeper to find them. And that`s what rock and punk was all about, wasn`t it?
Dear KLOS,
Rock will NEVER die
- Rocker
@20.00 Jonesy I think your thinking of the song N.I B. (not iron man) which has a killer bass intro and Ozzy yelling OH YEH inbetween
I realy like duff he is genuin and down to earth he reminds me of kurt cobain a lot 🧍♂️🎸💋💋💋❤️❤️❤️😎
I’m in to rock I making my own album by myself And it’s classic rock
Here come the "rock music is not dead you just have to look for it" comments.
I love it too, because they point to bands that either A. are simply copying older bands styles or B. Are somewhat experimenting, but in the same light, are just doing what has come before with modern elements strapped on, so nothing really new. I can't count how many people tell me to look up bands that are underground, thinking they are unique and different, yet, being older myself, I'll be like "This shit was done decades ago by Sonic Youth, Melvins or Bauhaus or Joy Division....whats so special about it?" Oh you have a heavy, distorted band with bluesy riffs, you mean Pentagram or Black Sabbath? Ok cool, nothing new then. "Hey Look, this rock band has a lot of electronics mixed in!" Oh you mean like Nine Inch Nails?
I know it makes me sounds like an old person bitching, but I listened to rock (and other genres) for decades because it was new and exciting, it tried different things, now that doesn't seem to be the case. It seems it went from break your new sound into the public domain to sign the deals, bow to the labels just to make that buck because you don't want to live in a shithole.
I hate those
I much prefer those to the standard "rock died 20/30/40 years ago" - typical response from boring old geezers who simply stopped listening to new music 20/30/40 years ago.
@@DaveBoofhead1972 I don't say that rock is dead, but it's clearly not where it should be. And a bigger problem is it's lacking of variety.
+hotlanta35 ha,ha,ha - I used to say that up until a few years ago - I just don't believe it any more...
These two are so funny. As cool as he is and with his commercial success far exceeding Jones', I'll bet he still sits there a bit in disbelief, thinking this is the guitar player from the fucking Sex Pistols! Forever the fan. Much love to Duff and Steve.
I love duff
Guatemala !!
These 2 guys are like lost Brothers
Sweet leaf,, best ALRIGHT NOW !,, ever
Love that Neurotic album... Reunion Required.
I drove through LA 3 weeks ago and listened to KLOS. Rock is definitely dead and so is KLOS.
out here in the great northwest we're still playing classic rock covers we do GnR we do Aerosmith we do tons of classic rock and the audiences eat it up. its not the most popular music Ill admit but we draw crowds and people love us. rock isn't dead its just not the mainstream genre its rap and had been since the death of MTv. rock n roll will lever forever!!!
@Mikie E yeah come to my house and say that walls of Marshall stacks
@Mikie E check out all the young kids doing classic rock like greta van sustren you're high bro rock lives
@Mikie E who is they? i have marshall stacks and rock is alive while im alive.
@@truescotsman4103 Greta Van Sustren?
@@mjh5437 it's a joke the band is called Greta Van fleet and it's that Zeppelin cover band actually they don't do Zeppelin songs they just sound exactly like them except for a really bad version
He says all right now in a few songs but I believe sweet leaf was the first time and most significant
Rock is not dead for sure. Music stations play their own genre & kids eventually develop their own taste as they grow up. UK, Germany, Eastern & Northern Europe still has a great live scene. Believe Australia & Japan likewise. It does seem sadly the U.S perhaps has seen a drop off in recent years but it will come back. O2 London now the planet's busiest live music venue many rock acts so not all bad for sure.
Sweet leaf by Sabbath starts "alright now"
Jonesy looks great! Glad he’s still with us.. Lay off the Bangers and Mash💯☮️
It’s late in England, 11-00pm. Steve is looking well weird in that outfit. So happy you are on the mend.
Yeah but don't you think Duff is sounding a lil slurry though? You think he's back on the booze?
no name hope not
It was sweat leaf where ozzy says all right now. Won't u listen.
he says it a lot, he loves to spam that hahaha from crazy train all the time too
fairies wear boots man you gotta believe me saw it with my own two eyes .....All right now!! oh yeah!!
@@bonnerscott5374 this is spooky I'm here listening to sabbath dvd gathered in there masses and on the song fairies wear boots when ure reply came in on my phone. That's not a lie.
@@martymartin2894 Lol
Sweet leaf. I remember where I was when my little sister first told me to listen to it and put that vinyl on tt. Unbelievable.
The “🎼Oh yeah now!” They are thinking of from Ozzy and Black Sabbath is Iron Man is actually “🎼Oh Lord, now!” on War Pigs fyi
Stoked!
9 songs in 4 days in fucking impressive!
Social media and lack of musical experimentation has killed rock n' roll. Live music culture was cool to be involved in at many levels, it was never meant to be a vapid culture of cool.
Dam Brooks white people killed rock
@@dannyanime3468 well they certainly stole it, is how I'd describe it personally, but I see entirely what you mean.
Dam Brooks “stole” as if a musical genre and general influence is something that can be stolen.
@@nox4298 music is now defined as "intellectual property" and as such is one of the most gaurded items that has no physical presence, has no metter and is truly just a collection of agitated layers of air. Yet if I was to, without asking permission or paying for the privilege for doing so, put out a version of 'Paint it Black' writen originally by the Brian Jones of Rolling Stones fame both his family and the bands legal team would be well within their rights to sue me for theft of intellectual property; that such attitudes or behaviour wasn't a part of the country blues tradition doesn't stop it being were the Stones stole lots of their sound from, in fact Kieth Richards said as much in his book "Keith" but feel free to dispute this further.
Danny anime your opinion is not the truth in the slightest.
I've always liked Duff, his solo album rocked.
On the topic of has rock died...Well, it was murdered by grunge in the 90's but it is slowly making a comeback. You can catch great new stuff on Sirius XM Octane and Liquid Metal and if you just want to settle back into comfy fun hair metal...Pluto TV (FREE APP) has a radio station called The Strip and they play so many good songs, you don't even need to skip any.
Long live Duff and G'N'R.
Murdered by grunge? That’s the strangest comment ever
Grunge was a genre of rock, homie
I worked with Chris Spedding. He said Jones was the shit. Solid guitar player. Chris Thompson made him do 23 guitar tracks on each song on the Bollocks lp. He played all the rhythm and leads exactly the same every time. Thompson mixed them all into one sound. Spedding says Jones is a great guitar player, always has been.
Lol!
