FINALLY!!!!! Somebody who can ACTUALLY play C.C.’s solos! All these ‘hotshot’ guitarists who put him down, can’t play his solos the way he recorded them. Beautiful job mate, loved it 👍👍
Say what you please. CC’s solos were/are melodic, manic, wild, and original and fit perfectly with Poison’s songs. CC and Mick Mars are the two most underrated guitarists ever.
Agreed. Lets be honest, Poison's music isnt of the highest quality but it wasnt because of C.C Deville's playing. That Life Goes On solo is incredibly melodic and really beautiful. I've always loved Ride the Wind too. Think those two tunes hold up against any music of that era.
william arbogast Exactly! I never understood why people put his playing down, to me his solos are very emotional and are like an additional verse that u can sing along too.🤘
He's The Boss Of Glam!!! Not even Close!! 💯🏁🏆 My Only bone to pick is I wish he played more like the record "Live" Other than that He's definitely my top 5 All time!!! He made me want to play guitar!! Open Up and Say Ahhhh was my first ever Album I fell in love with and blew my mind!! 8 years Old "Life changed Forever" Poison Forever 💗
CC was a perfect balance of technical ability and soul. He made every note count and always played for the song. He is easily one of the greatest guitar players and is sadly underrated.
Poison may have been pop metal; but they wrote their own music, played their instruments and always sang/played live; not like todays’s crappy pop. Loved poison in the 80’s and love them now! Great video!
So damn good dude! CC has to be one of the greatest Pentatonic and whammy players to walk this earth...So much feel....People who hate him are shitheads...
CC was my guitar hero and cause me to first pick up the guitar in 87 at 11 years old. Always loved him and his solos are timeless. Life Goes On and Something to believe in are some of the best solos out there
CC is the Poison!!! He made Poison sound and the songs that stood out all these years hands down. No one can replicate his emotions he put through his solos. I find his playing is very interesting and a damn good guitar player. Also, his style of guitar playing is not for today's hot shot guitar players. Now, this guy did a damn good cover of the solos. great playin' mate. Respect.
This video is so damn beautiful and relaxing to listen to just beautiful. CC makes solos with Feelings and emotions, CC was always my favorite guitar player for a darn good reason, Thanks for this awesome performance 👏
I have guitarists friends who do Rush and Dream Theater tributes but won't go near Poison. Not for credibility or whatever, but for fear of not been able to pull off CC's soulful incredible solos. To me CC's solos make up half of the song. They tell a story within a story. That Life Goes On solo makes you feel pain and sadness. What a great way underrated player CC was. Great video dude. Saludos desde Puerto Rico.
Tell you man, its harder for me to play solos that need precise bending and control than to play quick stuff...both have challenges but to me the latter is easier
Poison Flesh and Blood was the first cassette I bought when I was 11 back in 1990 and hearing C.C playing for the first time is the reason why I pick up the guitar in the first place. He needs more recognition and respect.
CC created these solos, and they truly masterful. Sadly however, if another player would have done them, critics would rave about the solos. But because it was CC, he got little respect. This guy does these to perfection. Beautiful. WELL DONE👌
I think C.C. DeVille was an underrated guitarist. If you really listen to his riffs , especially on Open Up Bad Say Ahh!, You can hear some really good playing on there. He studied music composition in college. I like all his stuff. Even his Samantha 7 stuff. Thank you for the video.
I’ve heard he could not play for shit which I automatically thought was patently absurd. This isolates his work and if anyone says he couldn’t play guitar proficiently then they are deaf or have a grudge/bias. Awesome stuff brother!
Brother, you got such chops. God bless you and I’m proud to support your content production. I will always hit the like button and do what I can to support your channels growth. Take care and keep on kickin out the jams, keeping this style of music alive and available for the young to discover and dive into! God bless. All the best to you and yours!
I've heard that too. I bet most people don't even know that CC went to Juliard and is classically trained? Poison was a fun band and CC did what was needed for the song. I loved CC's playing though.
@@shellybean9 The fact that he went to Juliard and was classically trained makes his playing that much more disappointing. Again it's not that he's bad...it's just that he's a very good guitarist who landed in a era filled with virtuosos the likes of Vai, GIlbert, Malmsteen, Petrucci et. al.
@@grenademaster8981 what is it exactly that you don’t like about his playing? Because everything I’ve heard from him, he sounds exactly like every other guitar player from the 80s. I don’t understand what people hate so much about him.
I'm not a Poison fan, never listened too far into CC's playing, but after listening to this, CC is probably the most talented member of Poison, an underrated guitar player for sure.
wow, respect! life goes on solo... the original is not played in one step :-) I'm am a professionell guitar player too. I Alway loved the style of c.c. Deville, so freaky and fresh. Missing guitar player like him at these days. YOU played it really great in each detail! and Yeah, Fleah an Blood in my always favorite Album from Poison! :-)
The emotions, the phrasing, the tone and the STORY telling of the SOLOs are masterfully beautiful! Life goes on & Every rose has its torn. Sadly, he's below the ground rated and only few knows him. - CC Devile is one of the greatest.
Awesome! I’ve always thought C.C. was overlooked. Great job! Would love to see other underrated 80’s guitarists represented. (Joey and Eric from Warrant, Tim Kelly from Slaughter...etc.
Cc and slash inspired me to pick up a guitar and become a musician. CC’s guitar solos were insane and had such emotion in them. You actually felt sadness or excitement in those riffs. Not too many people can create that emotion and be that complex. This guy nailed every solo.
@rattlesnake-ef6so that’s good to hear he was even using heroin at one point. I never went to a poison concert but I’ve heard plenty of their life stuff and I don’t think he’s ever played many of the songs correctly live I think he was just high all the time and all over the place.
Very underrated song indeed. Another song from that same album that is very underrated is Life Loves A Tragedy....a song that until this day I believe should have been released as a single.
Holy shit. Wow. I never really listened to poison all that much. But this video really opened my eyes. These past few months I’ve been listening to lotta stuff from the 80s as well band history and such. Every rose is probably one of rock’s greatest solos thank you
I was a teenager during Poison’s hay day, and I foolishly didn’t appreciate them. Now as a 50 year old they are one of my favorite bands, and essential summer listening. I hope they write a new album. I need more incredible CC guitar playing!
Cc wrote so many awesome and creative solos. He utilized those fast runs with melodic phrases and distinct placement of segements that fit together like a sweet puzzle. Thats how a good solo is done and fantastic covers of them.

C.C. Deville is an underrated guitarrist. He has not received the recognition of a great lead guitarrist and most of the time he is overlooked by music fans just because he is in a pop/ glam rock band but make no mistake, he is very talented and a great lead guitar player. I love his solos.
There is nothing like LIFE GOES ON SOLO, by far the best of the best. You can actually feeeel CCs feelings on each part, and I love he made it long, it is just the greatest!
Poison was very much one of those bands that either you where into them or you weren't. I wont deny that CC had some great talent when it came to his guitar.
I’m a drummer and I can watch this all day! CC has such great emotion behind his solo’s that I’ve always loved and appreciated. Great job my friend, loved it!!
Outstanding performance, he really enjoys every solo thar he skillfully plays, my best ones: fallen angel, every rose has it's thorn, Unskinny bop, nothing but a good time, something to believe inI & I won't forget you, amazing C.C. Deville guitar player!! Thanks so much Nacho for sharing your videos!✌
Wow! Thanks for posting this. CC is an amazing guitarist and is probably one of the most unrated guitarist of all time. I heard him say one time that you either play the stuff that you love or you play the stuff that sells and makes money. He had to make a choice about that a long time ago. On a personal level, I swear I will marry the guy who can play all those solos. lol I am a huge Poison fan!!!
Mate, you play his tone so well. Thanks for highlighting just how awesome DeVilles solos were/are. Super melodic, and hooky. Stinking of the Blues also. Well done.
Que grupazo más infravalorado, por el maquillaje, me encanta el rollo musical de CC deville . Que bueno eres compi, que pedazo de guitarrista. Enhorabuena!!!!
Making a guitar solo memorable is the most important thing, and CC has dozens of memorable solo, that's why I think he's such a good guitar player. Very
Thank you mate for reviving poison and CC guitar work.... People now a days so much into new thing,trying so hard on internet but they forget what legend has done even before internet fucking thing blows out.
Wow!!! awesome!!! You are so talented. CC Deville is one of a kind and one of the best. You play mas bien que las rechucha!!! Saludos desde el país de Chile!
FINALLY!!!!!
Somebody who can ACTUALLY play C.C.’s solos! All these ‘hotshot’ guitarists who put him down, can’t play his solos the way he recorded them. Beautiful job mate, loved it 👍👍
steve7onfire You are right!!!
CC can’t even do his own solos this accurately.
💯
Cc was very underrated
Shane Thompson I’m actually a huge CC fan. I know he is awesome. I just noticed he never does his solos note-for-note like this guy.
Say what you please. CC’s solos were/are melodic, manic, wild, and original and fit perfectly with Poison’s songs. CC and Mick Mars are the two most underrated guitarists ever.
Vito Bratta
Finally a guitarist that done CC justice
I think the Life Goes On solo is one of the best period
Mine is Fallen Angel 💗
Yes hand down.
Life goes on solo is top 5 solos in Rock History!!!
Agreed. Lets be honest, Poison's music isnt of the highest quality but it wasnt because of C.C Deville's playing. That Life Goes On solo is incredibly melodic and really beautiful. I've always loved Ride the Wind too. Think those two tunes hold up against any music of that era.
and you're dam right! life goes on is one of the best solos ever made. i put it up there next to tornado of souls
He's a legit underrated master at writing solo's. This guys a master at covering his underrated solo's.
If the solo for life goes on doesn't bring a tear to your eye then you have no soul.
This guy just gets it. CC is the reason I picked up guitar.
zetok45 pick up that guitar and talk to me......
Same here.
Me too!! Nothing but a good time guitar solo blew me away when I was a kid.
I'm sorry to hear that.
@@mickfromaustralia9818 Imagine if you heard Randy Rhoads...
People rag on CC DeVille, but I have always thought he had very melodic, tasty solos
william arbogast Exactly! I never understood why people put his playing down, to me his solos are very emotional and are like an additional verse that u can sing along too.🤘
So underrated.
He's The Boss Of Glam!!! Not even Close!! 💯🏁🏆 My Only bone to pick is I wish he played more like the record "Live"
Other than that He's definitely my top 5 All time!!! He made me want to play guitar!! Open Up and Say Ahhhh was my first ever Album I fell in love with and blew my mind!! 8 years Old "Life changed Forever" Poison Forever 💗
@@gmangsxr750 I could understand that.. He's very Jersey!! 🤣🤣💯👊🏼
Yeah I agree his melodic solos and licks stay in your head and really make the song. Mick Mars is another under rated guitarist with great melody.
CC never gets the respect he deserves. His solos always had so much feel and melody to them.
Agreed, I love bruce, but he had a hard time playing the same thing twice.
CC was a perfect balance of technical ability and soul. He made every note count and always played for the song. He is easily one of the greatest guitar players and is sadly underrated.
They're great to listen to which a lot of other guitar heroes can't say about their solos.
Tbats what happens when u play bubblegum music. See also Richie Sambora.
It's because he can't play them live. The solo for Nothin' But A Good Time took 8 hours in the studio to get done.
As a guitarist, I’ve always love his tone and solos.
I've always loved CC's solos. I think he's criminally underrated. Life goes on and something to believe in are easily his best!
@Scooter McDingleberry
Definitely
He is one of favorites.
@@Taylorpotts10 Yep. He be da favorute of da many one.
Sacrifice (flesh and blood) is awesome as well - nobody seems to cover it at all - probably cos they can’t
life goes on is gold. and life loves a tragedy. best songs on a great album.
CC Deville is my favorite lead guitarist. His leads are melodic and guitar-crying, two qualities I always look for in solos.
CC is the main reason I looked for to going to The Stadium Tour. He didn't disappoint.
my favorite guitarist of all time! CC number 1!
Poison may have been pop metal; but they wrote their own music, played their instruments and always sang/played live; not like todays’s crappy pop. Loved poison in the 80’s and love them now! Great video!
Loved them as well! Used to play air guitar with a tennis racket to them when I was a kid.
Facts!!!
Pop or not, they´re metal, even if most "true metalheads" doesnt like it (i´m what some consider a "true metalhead" but man, i freaking love Poison)
Cadillac Coupe DeVille is my favorite guitar player of all time!
Only few know the meaning of the infamous Cadillac model.🤙
And fewer know CC's real name: Bruce Anthony Johannesson
Me too
100% on the mark. CC would be proud. 👍😈👍
So damn good dude!
CC has to be one of the greatest Pentatonic and whammy players to walk this earth...So much feel....People who hate him are shitheads...

Oh yeah ! His solos are all over the fret board . Hella good
CC’s guitar solos are really tasty and very soulful. Love it! You did a fantastic job!!
I love C.C.'s licks. I don't know how you could find fault with them unless you wanna argue that they're too perfect. Rock On CC!
"Life Goes On" was impeccable. Well played, sir!
So refreshing to see someone who doesn't try to BE the guitarist, but play their solos faithfully with their own spin and tone. Respect man.
This video is so damn beautiful and relaxing to listen to just beautiful.
CC makes solos with Feelings and emotions, CC was always my favorite guitar player for a darn good reason,
Thanks for this awesome performance 👏
That vibrato wow it really shows you have a good ear and have put the hours to develop your playing keep it up all the best
Cc is a melodic monster solo guitar ! Great !

Understated and underrated as hell.
Watching this was nothin' but a good time! If anyone asks me who plays the best CC solo covers, I won't forget you! Excellent job!
Poison Flesh and Blood was the first cassette I bought when I was 11 back in 1990 and hearing C.C playing for the first time is the reason why I pick up the guitar in the first place. He needs more recognition and respect.
There just isn’t enough CC stuff on UA-cam, the guy is a genius and thanks so much for putting this on, excellent job 🎉
CC created these solos, and they truly masterful. Sadly however, if another player would have done them, critics would rave about the solos. But because it was CC, he got little respect. This guy does these to perfection. Beautiful. WELL DONE👌
Life goes on, what a freaking solo, I like the all but that one is one of the best from that era.

He had feel and melody. Underrated. Fuck all that speed and technique of the glam daze..i like his heart and feel.
CC is ABSOLUTELY one of my top 5 guitarist from the 80’s! 100% great soloist and writer.
CC is way, way unappreciated. His solo in Fallen Angel is one of my all time favs, but as is displayed here, he had many great ones.
CC always had the tastiest solos
I’ve heard he could not play for shit which I automatically thought was patently absurd. This isolates his work and if anyone says he couldn’t play guitar proficiently then they are deaf or have a grudge/bias.

Its not that he “couldnt play” its just that he wasnt anywhere close to his contemporaries in terms of technical skill. Mick Marrs maybe.

There's only few guitarist that can't be replaced in the band, CC is one of them.
Yep. They tried and it didn't work.

CC is an intricate piece of a band that is still very good and certainly very underated
Something to believe in and life goes on best solos
Criminally underrated guitarist who knows melody unlike any other. Solid guitar playing

Very underrated song indeed. Another song from that same album that is very underrated is Life Loves A Tragedy....a song that until this day I believe should have been released as a single.

I can’t even imagine how talented someone has to be to nail all these guitar solos from different guitarists. Something of a sevant/genius.
Glad to see CC get the respect he deserves
You are insanely amazing mate.c c would be proud of that.
NAILED IT MAN!! 👍 Mr. De Ville is indeed a master of the Axe!! A genius of his craft!! Perhaps He is the best after all! 👍
Great job as a Poison Fan...I appreciate you playing this..
I love his solos ..so 80s!!! So pimp
Nice work, dude ! Flesh & Blood is one of the albuns I've listened to the most in my life. Every solo has a meaning to me. Huge C.C DeVille fan
