- Guitarist Nuno Bettencourt plays a kick-ass medley of his best solos, and then segues into "Take Us Alive" from Extreme's most recent album, "Saudades de Rock".
This was recorded in 1080p HD on 4/24/2016 at the Warner Theater as part of the Generation Axe tour, which also featured Steve Vai, Yngwie Malmsteen, Zakk Wylde, and Tosin Abasi.
He’s not only a living legend with the guitar, he’s a complete artist and global musician. He is perfection.❤
Nuno can play anything and he does it with style and makes it look easy..... Probably the best guitarist in the world.
muythaimutha he's sure up there with the best.
Wildcatter63...... I'm an old guitarist and a huge Jimi fan....... You're very close to the truth..... Singers, songwriters, ground breaking guitarists, great stage presence...... I've said the same thing as you did decades ago.....
He is my personal favorite. Malmsteen, Vai, Satriani, Nuno, Zakk, Ian Thornley, Yuji Adachi (Dead End) and Akira are my top list.
yeah he's good! if your interested check out Greg koch my favorite guitarist!
You're exactly right.
Nuno is the best.
He has the absolute best guitar tone, very clean/lo gain and articulate. He has this killer palm mute about his playing. He’s in total control of his instrument. He makes it all look so effortless,and everything he does is syncopated. He’s definitely one of my favorite guitarists of all time. He influenced me for years,and im 48 yrs old. I can only imagine how many kids this guy has inspired. I hope he reads these comments and realizes what he’s done for the guitar community. I need to buy one of his guitars!
The N4 is a great guitar, especially for playing live. Go get you one.
I watch this and I think - how is he not at the top of every "greatest guitar players" list? And yet Rolling Stone selected "Kurt Cobain" and "Dave Grohl" over this guy.
Stephen Hess Kurt Cobain isn't really known for his guitar playing more for his singing and songwriting and controversy
+Jericho Freman Nuno Should be in top Five. Cobain 200 for great riff playing good simple solos and songwriting
the only reason why those lists exist is that some people who actually can not play a guitar properly (like Eric Clapton) could be named as guitarists ... =) dont take me wrong, I like Eric Clapton, he is a fine MUSICIAN and producer, but frankly, could he play just one riff from this collection .... ? =) =)
Just a popularity contest !
Teenagers buy stuff
From about 1990 to 1993, Extreme was my favorite band. Great vocal harmonies and I heard Nuno's playing. So fluid and funky. The greater public may underrate Nuno but guitar heads know that he is one of the greats.
Nuno in his career wrote a lot of amazing solos. Creativity, great control and super tempo
NUNO is the perfect combination of classical technique perfection and groovy funk. Hes so talented and fun to watch. YOu almost have to watch it more than once to pick up all the changes and styles he throws in there. but the speed and soul is awesome!
Extremely Good. Nuno your the man!!!
He seamlessly flows between blues, country, metal, classic rock, funk etc in his riffs and leads. It's a huge mix up of several genres.
glad to see nuno around after all these years and doing so well for himself
Most underrated guitar player of all time.
This guy is the best in my book!
Few guitar players still have that energy and passion to play after SO MANY years on the road. Long live to Nuno. And the guy is like The Dorian Gray Portrait or something!
Whoa Man!! Lost my heart at 4:26...I just LOVE this guy's phrasing!! I love to watch him play almost as much I like to listen, he is so free with his instrument. He's a joy to watch.
So glad to see the respect given to Nuno in these comments. He doesn't get enough of it, the dude is an incredible guitar player.
Zakk taking notes in the back lol
Saw that too, I was like "Is that Zakk taking a shot of Nuno?" at 04:51.
Same here 😁
This guy has it all. Fantastic player and genuinely nice guy. Love extreme and all the solo work Nuno has done too.
Coolest guy on the planet and an utterly insanely great musician/songwriter. If I ever had to own up to a man-crush it would be Nuno lol, he's the best at what he does, phenomenal all-rounder.
10000%
Absolutely LOVE it!!!! Also when Zakk whips the phone out to get some footage, great piece of artist appreciation there. Had artists do that for me in the past and when you see the footage go online its an awesome feeling!
Is there a better live player than Nuno? Geesus he doesn't miss a beat. You think Steve Vai and gang are good, then you go back and listen to Nuno and your head just explodes. Even Zakk Wylde is filming him
Actually Dime Bag Darrel was but now he's gone R.I.P 😭😞👊🤘🤘🤘
Eric johnson
I could play exactly like NUNO if I could slow it down 99% and study it for ten years. MONSTER!!
Exactly😅
He-man woman hater is still one of the greatest rock riffs of all time, and the breakdown of Cupid's Dead is crazy good.
Agree, for me my favorite is that rest in peace solo which is so melodic. My favorite. Right up there with the Get the funk out solo.
Love stumbling across stuff like this while wasting the day away on UA-cam! I've been a big Nuno fan for years and it never gets old watching him play. Missed this tour when it came through Kansas City as I was out of the country, but had friends tell me it was freakin' awesome! Thanks for posting!
You're very welcome! It was a great show, for sure. Nuno just keeps getting better!
nuno bettencourt is guitar freak a total and utter virtuoso totally unique
Love his tone..
So cool seeing Zakk Wylde acting like a fanboy around the 5:00 mark
Nuno even mentions somewhere that Zakk has a great heart!
\m/
He is awesome, one of a kind, brilliant..and unfortunatly one of the most underrated guitarist 🤨 it’s a shame...
Nuno and Jake E Lee two of the best guitarist ever that are so underrated
The best of the best
Damn......Nuno is a Real Guitar God....he'll be up there with all the greats FOREVER.....a true original..
Thanks for posting this, a fantastic technical performance, plus you can tell he's really having fun!
+transtremm You're very welcome! He had a short set, but made the most of it and was definitely the highlight of the evening.
Absolutely brilliant I watched this a few times and am not getting bored of it yet
Nuno, you are a true original and master of expression on your instrument. Thank you
there can be only one Nuno Bettencourt
Shit I thought there where at least two. I've been fooled my entire life....
@@eskoriakiebraqeyo7942 🤣🤣🤣
Why is this not getting more likes?? Did people really forget about what raw amazing talent mean? This man is an amazing guitarist!!
Nuno “next level” Bettencourt!! Absolutely Amazing!!
He's so good it's almost intimidating.
Borororong I’ve met him and believe me he kind of is 😂😂 but honestly really down to earth and easygoing.
Seen extreme live and believe me he is intimidatingly good. Best live guitarist I've ever seen. Period.
Almost? Nuno has intimidated the fuck out of me since I was 12!!!!
True talent. Haven’t listened to Nuno in a long time. Flawless.
Nuno always has been a favorite. Fantastic player with that perfect mix of styles. Right hand is on point too. Terrifying
Holy shit, I feel like I just had a spiritual experience. Nuno is the man.
That's worth the price of admission right there
those 2 runs N B does back to back at 8:30 are f*cking SICK ! (and those wild time signature riffs w/crazy accents from his ''Cupid is Dead'' arsenal completely kicked ass!) ..... a phenomenal musician that Bettencourt has become shows no signs of slowing down!
Rarely is his name when mentioned when talking about the greatest rock guitarists of all time...it always blows my mind when guys of his caliber don’t get the praise they deserve. NUNO SHREDS🤘🏼🤘🏼
Nuno is a beast!🤘
Only the people that really knows, RALLY knows and understand than NUNO IS ONE of the Very Best Guitar Players since he showed up in the Music Scene..... HE IS SO TALENTED AND NATURAL.
I’m so in love with this man. How does he make everything look so damn easily. One of the most rhythmic funky guitarist of all time.
Zakk is filming in the background at 4:50...How epic. :D
Mátyás Hajba there was thing or two he could have picked up to make his playing more interesting
I love extreme and nuno so much...and i wish they always exist..
He never grows old!!!! An absolute player!!! Very clean playing and XTREME accuracy! ....if i can only bring back the early years of the 90’s ...
I watch him play and it makes me want to put my guitar collection away forever!!!!!!!!!! Fricking amazing.......
Saw live twice still love this song. Sold my N4 when broke.. Musically my first love!
Unreal!!! Nuno is amazing!
one of the greatest .. 4sure!
If only some people knew how difficult that playing is. I'm not sure how he maintains technique and control holding the guitar so low, except he seems to have long arms. Amazing.
I was always envy of players who can play that good with the guitar almost on the knee level, guitar hero style. I was NEVER able to do that, no matter how hard I tried! :)
He is motherfuckingly underrated.
Motherfuckingly under rated ?!
Yea I think he is
Trims buat postingannya...idola gue banget,Nuno..
This is the first time I’ve seen him play wow!!!! What an amazing player
THAT WAS BADASS!!!!!
+Finding NeverLand Yeah, he totally pulled it off. Amazing guitarist.
There's no better compliment than Zakk Wild taking a video of you.
Awesome! Thanks for the post man!!
man that tone!
Such a fantastic player!
I love Nuno, but I couldn't help but watch the bass player!! You gotta be a monster on the bass to hang with Nuno!! Most impressive!!
Amazing!!
Haha Zakk getting a quick picture! Awesome! #RESPECT
Nuno é o melhor de todos os guitarristas de todos os tempos. Magnífico no que faz! Bravo Nuno!!! 😍😍😍😍💕💕💕💕
That riff from He Man Woman Hater is one of the sickest guitar riffs to ever be played 🤘
God he will always be awesome, one of my biggest inspirations ever.
I was there! Awesome show!
hermoso SIEMPRE ME ALUCINÓ ESA MEZCLA DE CLASICO, SINFONICO Y ROCK
one of the very best hard rock guitarists, carried his band throughout
Awesome!
Fantastic - he is the absolute best !
How old is this guy? I am 48 and was listening tk them in high school, and he is AT LEAST AS GOOD as he was then. Simply Amazing
Great Nuno!
Awesome!!!!!
Legend. On my top 5-top 10 all times easily.....
Incredible!..It's amazing how a guy can dedicate his life to playing guitar I also play, but nothing like this..
Holy crap!!! Awesome!!!
Another magician....
The Light Has Bless You..
Sweet guy. I met him in Sydney years back with his then wife Suze. Both cool people. Can't believe how little he is. He jammed on stage that night with Suze's band The Baby Animals...glad I was there for it.
コンマ何秒もずれがない運指最強最高恐ろしいレベルかっこ良すぎて参りました。😭世界トップですよ👹数人の超人ギタリストに入っていますし後は好みこれからも引きまくり感動下さいね👍
Flight of the bumblee at an even faster tempo?! There's only one NUNO!
dsargent724 but several delay repeats
There's just the one repeat dude. I know. I've been playing it for 20 years!
@@adjoho1 That's accurate. Been playing it too, along with the Echo Song.
He is beyond awesome.
Great, great guitarist, can t he is underrated as he is....such talent
A true musical genius. Excellent excellent excellent
Man, that tone.........is awesome
正確すぎてほんとに弾いてんのか疑わしくなる男…いやすげぇよ
DVD等の映像作品ではなく観客が撮った生演奏でこの精度ですもんね
ホントかっこいい
6:01 the way nuno waves over the bassist from the backing band
thats fucking huge. amazing and beautiful moment of sick riffs and the bassist enjoying a few seconds of nunos spotlight, literally.
the heat of that light must have felt so, so good
love it. hes such a great person and an even better guitarist
awesome nuno
I feel nuno is the best funk guitarists who can pull of funk riffs as well as do a mean solo... he does not really require a rhythm guitarist to support him.. he brings out the attack really well... he makes best use of all the strings as well as strong kick ass bends.. Hope he tries new solos like muris varajic as he has got alot of left in him...
Agreed 100%. He's very rhythmic, but that's because he was a drummer before he was a guitarist.
That intro was crazy good, damn!!😮🔥🎶
Absolue perfect. I wish, Criss Oliva was here. Guitar heros to be together. He was very fit to this stage as his creation.... Very bluesy very 80's, and full f shred. RIP.
so good.....
I was at that show and while they were all awesome I left feeling that Nuno had stolen the show. He was humble yet oh so amazing in his playing. I admit I have been a long time extreme fan but he killed it this night. I hope they do another tour it was an awesome night. Very cool to see it again on you tube several years later! Wow!
I agree!
Beautiful Beautiful
Wow !!! Nuno continues as good as he used to be on Extreme band. God bless you Nuno
Saw Generation Axe twice, Nuno killed it both times
Quando vão reconhecer o Nuno como um dos MAIORES Guitarristas do Mundo?
Verdade!
One of the very best
Amazing how he can play so good with the guitar so low.
There was only one guy back in the day that can be included in the same sentence with Striani & Vai and that was Nuno !
