John Corabi is one of the most talented artists in music. I loved his music.
I agree 100%, I was actually going to say what you did. I really appreciate how real and down to earth he is. He is so straight forward and honest. You can't beat him for being a great singer, writer, front man and damned good guitarist himself. He's got a ton of ground covered and offers so much to any project he is involved with. I've been a fan of his since the 1st album with The Scream. I'm a huge fan of his work but have yet to see him in a club environment. I really need to rectify that.
Yeah, that Motley Crue record is so underrated. The production quality was amazing, and it’s totally different with other Motley’s records. Love it John!
He seems like an incredibly nice guy. I love his Motley contributions. Fantastic album. I only wish this dude the best of success in his career.
@@konservativekirbyxi5855 Nope. A horrible MC album would be New Tattoo.
He is very nice

I was a Möley Crüe fan for many years until John Corabi joined, after that I was a HUGE John Corabi fan ! Love his songs and as a person. BEST ALBUM EVER
It must drive John crazy getting asked Motley questions after 30 years
The Crue '94 wasn't only my fav Crue Album, but also one of my fav rock albums of all time. It was a C4 explosive bomb for the soul.
1994 is by far the best Motley álbum ever. John is one of the greatest singers in the world. His work with The Scream and The Dead Daisies is absolutely fantastic. Keep on Rocking, John!!!!!!
The Sceam has always been one of my favorite bands! On another note, my band opened for RATT back in 2007 in Tyler Texas and we talked with John for about 2 hours before the show before his management came and got him. Great guy!!
What band did you play with? Rocket queen? 🔥
Same here opened for them 3 times with corabi on guitar nicest coolest dude ever
So true!! He is one of the coolest people out there.
God!! I loved The Scream too!!
I remember when this album was released in Switzerland, it was a killer, the sound, the voice all was perfect. A great album
I love John's voice since his album with Motley Crue. I am still obsessing about the '94 effort to this day. I think it is as good or better than Motley Crue's earlier records.
diitto
Having your son on the drums behind you has gotta be really great!
very cool
I had somehow missed the Mötley-album with John, but after reading the comments I had to go check it out and wow. Although it's good, I can see why it didn't work out. For one thing, it doesn't sound like Mötley and I'm sure the drama didn't help either. That said, I'm gonna have to go and check out more from John because I'm really digging this sound.
Meanwhile, I agree with what he says about all the drama. It's a big disservice both to the fans and the musicians themselves to air their dirty laundry for all to see. And not just with Mötley but other bands as well. The fans are there for the music, not for the drama - unfortunately, it's easy to get drawn into the latter when the musicians themselves are unable to separate business from private life. If it doesn't work out then be done with it and walk your separate paths, no need to drag your fans into it as well.
You could see the pure joy on his face talking about his son.
Love John. Just think how cool the rock world could be if it were only filled with good dudes like John Corabi.
That Motley album in 94 kicks ass…… still have my CD…… great songs!
Such a cool humble person. He is a true rockstar and also keeps his head on straight. One of my favorite singer songwriters ever
I'm glad the dude's happy! The fact that he's still singing and playing guitar and touring and recording is a giant feet to tackle especially for over 40 years!! Keep it up!! The first time I heard him was the first Scream album!! And the Motley Crue album is a classic now!
Still got one hell of a voice too
I met John at The Astoria in London when The Scream played in Europe and he's a hellava nice guy. After a great gig he came out, hung with the fans who stayed around, signed autographs for anyone & even took the time to chat with us. Totally down to earth, no airs & graces whatsoever. He totally deserves the success and career he's carved out, truly one of Rock's nice guys.
I was there too! Such a great gig 🤘
Crabby Crue rules. John is an amazing singer and a cool dude!
John took MC where they'd never been, musically. It's by far my favorite. I saw Union with John and Bruce and loved it as well.
Motley 94 - the band's best album . Masterpiece.
1994 Motley Crue album is an incredible album. Bought it when it first came out launch day. There was a red and yellow label version. I bought the red label version and it was the soundtrack of my 1994.
John you talk so much sense. You nailed exactly why people split up into camps when motley split. I loved that you spotted the younger kids coming to your gigs....my son is 22 now and literally will go to any gig featuring the older metal bands. He likes modern stuff but nowhere near as much. He is an avid daisies fan because of you.... One gig in newcastle england and that was that!
Oh yeah, I was 15 years old when the album came out. I didnt need another bitter, angry divorce in my life. I didnt want to be coerced or threatened to pick a side. Again. Rock and Roll can go there sometimes, and it's no good to the fans. The Pantera breakup sucked as well. Too bad about Motley 94, the record company's were real fickle and disingenuous in their promotion.
@S Tra yeah you'd think that wouldnt you, but what actually happened ,was , i played music in the car,and so did my wife in hers. From her he gets bowie, billy joel, dolly parton muse, from me he gets metallica dokken, van halen.for years he begged me to take him to a gig, and when he was ten we went to see michael schenker. Some nice ladies let him stand at the front, and that was that. Imagine being ten and having schenker play the rock bottom solo right in front of you,to you...... He now likes modern metal and rock e.g sabbaton, avenged sevenfold,brothers of metal,halestorm,pretty reckless. Most of those are not to my taste but my point is, there was no coercion involved.it happened through osmosis....that's the problem with the internet.everyone is a judge and jury. Don't read between the lines and make up facts....you weren't there...
@S Tra I prefer my parent's music over most BS put out today
I like it more when the interviewer didn’t speak on tape. That’s what made this channel different and awesome, compared to every other metal channel.
I’ve heard small bits on other interviews as well. I think they’re clearly off mic and they might have had to cut John’s statement to get rid of it entirely (same with the other bits I’ve heard). I do love the style of every single one of the interviews, including this one. This channel ROCKS lml
John is an absolute icon!!! I'm a huge Crue fan, but I must say Crabbys voice is on a whole other level. A master of voice chords!! His interviews with Stefan Adika on Adika Live are awesome. They are good friends. I love the fact John doesn't get into all the drama, he is just himself. Rock on my favorite man, Corabi. Your a legend!!🤟🎼🎶💜💜💜💜. Proud papa of a very talented son💞
Didnt like Motley before Corabi. The 94 record was amazing. Still is.
I met John at a show on June 28th! Very nice guy!
I've always liked Motley Crue from the first album on. Then when they released the Corabi album OMFG!! It was so heavy with the two guitars, yet it also has this bluesy swagger.The songwriting was even better. IMO that is their best album!!!
I met John awhile back at a show here and I have to say he is one of the coolest most down to earth people I have ever met!! The show was Awesome he made it really fun and it's something I will never forget!! Thank you John and thank you for this Amazing interview!!🤘Keep Rockin!!
What a great bloke
He seems down to earth , not weird like most musicians.
I've always been a fan of the album that John did with the Crue.......Motley Crue 94.......... Hooligans Holiday has been my life's tune.
Totally agree with all the posts.. I met Jon on the Motely Cruise back in 2008, got a pic and hung out.. super cool guy. The 94' album is my favorite Crue disc. it stands the test of time where all the other albums are dated. you could easily release the 94' album and not be considered a retro disc! love it!
John rocks
Love this, as a Corabi fan but especially as a dad. Good for them!
This was the best Motley album period. Just about all the songs good.
Hopefully there will be a part 3 with John talking more about UNION, Ratt, The Dead Daisies and solo. That would be awesome. 🤘🤘
John seems to be such a great guy and sells it seamlessly because he is honest and sincere in my opinion.
That record with John was best that band ever did hands down!!!
Never really cared for him but now, after this interview, which I think he was dead on correct, I have a lot more respect and admiration for him
Great interview 👍
Great interview! I saw the 1994 tour at Starwood Amphitheater in Nashville. It was a strange experience. Ticket sales were so bad that they closed the hillside and put everyone under the pavilion. I probably got to see one of the last Motley Crue 1994 shows that year before they canceled the tour. Had 3rd row seats!
2 things:
1. John Corabi is great. Awesome musician, singer and guy.
2. Never have people have expectations on you or on what you do. Try always to be the underdog.
John you fell into all these great bands because you are that damn good. Love everything you have ever done. (Says the 60 year old rock guy.)
I love this channel
The album he did with Motley was different but also the best album Motley ever put out.
Wish we could have seen where it could have gone.
I remember hearing Hooligans Holiday and being blown away. I heard when it was due out and picked it up the day it came out while I was passing through Phili on the way to a three month tour in Saudi in the Air Force. I loved the whole album and listen to it to this day. It amazed me it didn't do as well as it should, but I think he nailed all the things that came together to hinder it. That's the way of the wprld sometimes.
As a Crue fan for 30 plus years now I must say, Yeah it was tough getting a Crue album without Vince but,damn this album sounds absolutely amazing!!! It's one of my favorite crue albums. Think if you walked into a room and hearing those songs .... awesome!!! Still Love It!!!
I think John is dead on, about the mudslinging from Nikki and the boys toward vince drawing a line in the sand for the fans... for most of them anyway... I always felt like its was a bit childish... PARTICULARLY when they made fun of him being fat after he was almost killed in that jet ski accident. But personally, I love BOTH forms of Motley... I won't lie, The 1994 album is my favorite Motley album... With Shout at the devil a close second, But I think they really got a raw deal on that 94 album. They really did. Between it being peek grunge era, and record labels not wanting to push any of the bands that were still around from the 80s... That album should have been the best selling record of their career... hands down. But it is what it is unfortunately. I sure would give both pinky toes and one of my testicles to see them do ONE tour with Corabi again... and I'd throw in both second toes for another album.
As a previous MC fan so sad that Nikki treated him this way, and just didn't bury the hatchet with closure with positivity nearly 30years later ,for John was bought in at the height if grunge and wasn't his fault.
As a lifelong Crue fan, I love this interview with John. I wasnt having it at the time. After Vince was back, I loved that album. Always loved the Scream and John's talent. Still rooting for him
Some of us really dug it when it came out.
They kicked ass live in 94.
John brought raw heaviness back to Motley Crue
The best Motley Crue album.
Motley '94,...l feel their best!
The ‘94 record is sooo good. It was the hardest/loudest record at the time. I was a Motley fan, and even more during that time. They lost me with New Tattoo. That ‘94 record wasn’t successful at the time but it aged exceptionally well.
John was also fantastic with The Dead Daisies.
🥁 Amazing & informative video 🎸🎼
Dude, you're blessed.
John is a talented guy. It looks like he’s enjoying the music that he is working on. Good for him.
John is a cool humble guy
It took me a bit of time to warm up to the ‘94 record. I had it on cassette and just stuck with it. I needed a song that was close enough to the Feelgood sound to keep me interested so, Poison Apples was like my anchor. I listened to the whole cassette repeatedly and it wasn’t long before it became one of my favorites. Not better or worse than Dr. Feelgood or the Vince era, just different. Welcome to the Numb and Smoke the Sky are still my favorites to this day.
I’ve always heard that it’s” better to be Lucky than good “and it’s very true….keep on rocking…. Cheers
They need a reunion tour with John with a few new songs .
I’ve loved all the music John’s ever done. I would’ve loved to have seen a few more albums from The Scream, but the Crue album and the Union albums are some of my favorites too. I was a bit out of the loop on him singing for Dead Daisies until Glenn Hughes had already taken over. Both versions of that band are great though. The only time I saw him in person was when he played guitar for RATT. Great guy and musician.
the motley 94 cd still kicks ass to this day i love it one of their best albums
John is class act
LOVE The Scream!!!!!!
my all time favorite crue album!!!! \m/
Amazing info/channel. You need way more subs. I'm sharing this and you reading this should too.
Easily the most under appreciated rock album from the 90s. Always wished they had called themselves something else to see if people could hear it with an unbiased ear. Still play the album several times a year.
Very nice guy right there! Down to Earth...seems very cool.....I'm heading to Nashville soon if you need Bass , Lead Guitar , Keys, Drums for any project ...I have to seek you out when there. The stars are aligning
Saw this tour in Kansas city. Type O Negative and Kings X opened. One of the best I've seen and I recall it being packed/ nearly sold out.
Ah what a killer lineup.
John has such a level head. That’s why he’s been so blessed
Great guy.....
That was a good quality album.
Guy is a class act! Album was awesome!
Great voice! Driftaway is one of the best ballads of all time
If John had committed to gaining 50 pounds, bleaching his hair, forgetting lyrics onstage and singing out of tune he would have been embraced as the new frontman by the hardcore Motley fans. But hindsight is 20/20.
You're being ridiculous. He'd have to gain *150* pounds 😂
@@mCblue79 🤣🤣🤣
Was living in Hollywood when that album came out.. still to this day one of my favorite Albums. Met John few years back at a Daises show. Cool f'ing cat ,,, miss him in the daisies ,, props to Glen Hughes but sorry Crabs was Daisies
I purchased the Corabi debut with Motley Crue
And to this day, i still listen to it
And i can honestly say, it still is, and was then, lyrically, sonically far & away better than anything Motley Crue did with Vince Neil
Crue's Power to the music is their best album, that must be served loud and clean. Makes me feel cheated that i have seen them live 4 times after Vince was back and they never played a song from that album, because its as good as any of their albums and i think better in some ways. Less Hollywood.
OMG. Hearing the shop talk with record labels....
He's 100% right...it left bad taste hearing Motley and VH trashing their lead singers. It sped up demise of that genre of music even faster.
John's exactly right. I was a die-hard crew fan back in the eighties and when benssalah I was pretty fucked-up about it. My favorite band had just broken up grunge was taking over the radio and MTV had turned to shit at this point. It was a sad time for music. And then when they were making anti-venom comment I kind of took a stand on team Vince at that time and went to his concerts and bought his album. To me it sounded more like Motley Crue and I was mad at the record industry in the music business at that point. So I personally never gave John a chance as a singer or musician. Here we are many years later and I think that the Motley Crue album that he did is barnone one of the best written albums and that time frame and one of motley's best musical albums. Don't get me wrong I still love Too Fast for Love & Shout at the Devil. Girlsgirlsgirls was the soundtrack for most of my youth. Honestly I didn't like Dr. Feelgood it was too much bubble gum bulshit.. at that point they had lost their edge with their sound.
By FAR the best Crue album!!! Too bad they listened to the suits and brought Vince back.
Coming soon to a basement near you!
Trip. I didn’t know Rob Zombie played in Motley Crue .
HE STILL HAS A GREAT VOICE !!!!
Corabi was right when he said if the Crue album had been called something else, it would have exploded. (In so many words)
I worked in college radio at the time when this album came out. I thought it was really good. But music was well on it's way to moving towards Pearl Jam/Nirvana/Alice in Chains when it was released.
The ground had shifted way too much for it to get a fair shot.
Plus what he said about Mick, Nikki and Tommy taking every single opportunity to slam Vince didn't help matters.
Classic album in every sense. But they had the deck stacked against them in 94. By that time, most hard rock/metal fans had moved on to bands like Pantera, White Zombie, Manson, NIN. It was also when Korn came out. I don’t even think it would have been a smash even if Vince was still in the band. Either way, this album crushes. Mick’s riffs are monstrous.
The ' 94 self titled record was the last great Mötlëy record. Picked up a rare vinyl copy years ago! PLAY LOUD!
New Tattoo was a good album IMO. But I agree with you.
I’d like to hear unreleased tracks from Personality #9
He's right,self titled is Tommy Lee's masterpiece. He killed it
the president Bob Krasnow was right it is a masterpiece of an album
❤
Anybody else wonder what John would sound like in Van Halen?
When the album came out, I immediately thought it was a masterpiece. One of the few albums I love from the first note to the last, and I can count them on one hand only.
My drummer (a huge Motley Crue fan) was... Meh...
Paradoxically, I think that if they would have released it that album under a different name, it would have been a success.
Great story. Hope you came away with lots of cash....
John you were in the wrong place at the wrong time. Like Gary Cherone with Van Halen. But your album was great
Sadly at least Crue were able to put out a proper well produced album. Eddie really had no business producing that album in the state he was in.
