      Marty Friedman from MegaDeth and Paul Gilbert have done some work together for Japanese TV. It's amazing, and hillarious all at the same time. If you like watching Paul play guitar, search for video clips of those two together. One of the shows was called Rock Fujiyama i believe.

    Billy Sheehan on the bass. I had lunch with him last summer in Nashville and he's every bit as energetic now as he was when this came out in 1989. Billy was also the bassist for David Lee Roth when Dave left Van Halen, and he has played bass on a TON of other artists' albums. Definitely worth checking him out with Steve Vai on the G3 Live in Denver videos out there.

    I'd forgotten that Mr. Big was one of the hair bands of the 80s and they really rocked. However their big claim to fame were their ballads like 'Just Take my Heart' and 'That's Why This Thing Exists.' They also did a pretty good cover of Cat Steven's, 'Wild World.'

    You should check out their live version of Shy Boy from Budokan, Japan. A song that Billy Sheehan wrote in the band Talas. David Lee Roth also recorded it. Paul Gilbert and Billy Sheehan really plays up to each other on Shy Boy. Drummer Pat Torpey RIP are also phenomenal. Mr. Big did a lot of heavy songs but were mostly known for their ballads. Some one most have been surprised when buying the album after seeing the ballads on MTV

    Mr. Big were blessed with ability to write ballads and bangers. All the players were beyond excellent on their instruments and they all sang vocals, so the choruses sounded extra rich. They had decent success in the U.S., but were superstars in Japan. Sadly, drummer Pat Torpey passed away from Parkinson's diease a few years ago. Mr. Big is actually on their farewell tour as we speak with Nick D'Virgilio of progressive rock groups, Spock's Beard and Big, Big Train, handling the drums. Bassist, Billy Sheehan and guitarist, Paul Gilbert are still active in music. Billy is currently a member of two rock groups I follow: The Winery Dogs, and Sons of Apollo. Both groups also feature amazing drummer, Mike Portnoy of Dream Theater fame, as well. Mike's a prog drumming legend with all the groups and projects he's in currently, as well as the past. Some of the ones I follow are The Neal Morse Band, Transatlantic, Flying Colors and Liquid Tension Experiment. Anyway, thank you for reacting to more Mr. Big. They have much more for you to enjoy.

Except everyone in the band was known and respected by their fellow musicians. They should have been well-known for more than one ballad.

Billy Sheehan and Paul Gilbert not only play so well together but are also masters of their instruments. Pat Torpey's drum work was always kickin! I was lucky enough to get second row to see them in concert before Torpey was diagnosed with Parkinsons and has since passed on. They are one of the best bands I've seen in concert. They don't nearly get enough recognition for the amazing talent found in this band.

    Bass player is Billy Sheehan and is recognized as one of the best bass players in rock and roll. He was bass player for David Lee Roth for several years. He's been in several other bands including The Winery Dogs. I believe guitarist Paul Gilbert was a guitar teacher. Previously, he was in another band called Racer X. Drummer Pat Torpey died several years ago of Parkinson's disease, rest in peace. Singer, Eric Martin has a great bluesy rock voice.

    You are on a great rabbithole here! His first band; TALAS; had some great tunes. Then he did some time with David Lee Roth. Check out YANKEE ROSE or SKY BOY with him. He then formed MR BIG which is a super band of great musicians. He also has a fun group called WINERY DOGS with Ritchie Kotzen and Mike Portnoy and for your Prog Rock Insanity check out the SONS OF APPOLLO. Billy uses a two neck bass and the guitar player also plays on a two neck guitar!

    Billy Sheehan on bass guitar. He’s also the bass player for David Lee Roth on a couple DLR solo albums. Check out “Yankee Rose” from David Lee Roth. Billy Sheehan on bass and Steve Vai on guitar…. Two of the best!

    The entire debut album by Mr. Big was a beast! Eric Martin, Billy Sheehan, Steve Vai & Pat Torpey were one of the best line-ups ever put together. Masters of their craft!~

    Had the pleasure of seeing Billy Sheehan play with Steve Vai on Vai's Real Illusions: Reflections tour. This guy is the truth and he's extremely humble in conversation. Met him outside the venue after the show and we chatted about 5mins before Vai came out to sign my guitar. Both are really nice guys.

    Give Billy some love! Billy Sheehan is the best bassist in rock and roll even right now. He is now with a band called The Winery Dogs with an amazing drummer named Mike Portnoy from Dream Theater, and Richie Kotzen who is a wonderful blues guitarist. Billy also was the basist when David Lee Roth went solo from Van Halen. He is one of the premier basists in rock and roll. Listen to his style he plays the bass like a guitar. Freaking amazing and I love him! Also if you ever ask him anything on his Facebook page, he actually responds to you. Him and I have had a few conversations online through the years and he's a great guy.

    Please give proper props to Billy Sheehan! This song starts off with the bass. Billy Sheehan is the most talented underrated basis in rock and roll. He played with David Lee Roth when David Lee Roth left Van Halen and went solo, as well as Mr Big, and now the winery dogs. Please check him out with David Lee Roth and also with the winery dogs. You've done a version of the song fooled around and fell in Love with the original singer, Elvin Bishop, but please do the version that the winery dogs did in Japan. I promise you will love it! But again please give praise to Billy, he is so deserving and he is the nicest man on rock and roll right now in social media. He responds to you will carry on a conversation with you and is amazing. We saw the winery dogs in Dallas back in March and they blew us away

    They formed in LA about 1988, It was Eric Martin - Lead Vocals, Paul Gilbert - ALL Guitars, Billy Sheehan - Bass an Pat Torpey - Drums, They were a bit of a 'Super-Group' Billy Sheehan an Paul Gilbert were ALREADY stars in their own right! 😎😁

    Secret weapon drummer/ vocals Pat Torpey was so good. Shredder Mr Paul Gilbert on electric twanger/vocals , the incredible Billy Sheehan bass/vocals is on everyone’s list and of course Eric Martin on lead vocals It’s was so unfair for that much talent in one band.

  • @sumonjamal1653

    Mr. Big debuted in 1989 and had all the potential to be a massive rock band - Eric Martin on vocals... the shredding talent of Paul Gilbert (guitar) who was in a speed metal band Racer X... veteran bassist Billy Sheehan, formerly of Talas and David Lee Roth (Van Halen) solo band... and (the late) Pat Torpey (drums)... They became huge for the ballad in 1991 - 'To be with you'... and were huge in Japan in the 90's even after grunge rock took over. Their 1993 cover of 'Wild world' (by Cat Stevens) from the 3rd album 'Bump ahead' was another hit.
    By coincidence, Mr. Big were also Rush fans... and they did open for Rush in 1990 ('Addicted to that Rush' indeed!)
    Later albums ('Hey man' in 1996... and then, 'Get over it' in 1999... 'Actual size' in 2001 w/ Richie Kotzen on guitar) were considered rather 'soft' and led to the band's breakup after '01... Mr. Big did reunite w/ guitarist Paul Gilbert rejoining in 2010... However, drummer Pat Torpey was afflicted w/ parkinson's disease and eventually passed away in 2018.
    Mr. Big announced plans to return w/ new music shortly...
    Some of the memorable songs by Mr. Big - 'Had enough' ... 'Green tinted sixties mind' ... 'Wind me up' ... "Alive and kickin' " ... 'Take cover'🤘🔥

    This was one of my favorite songs from them. Paul Gilbert is one of the early guitar hero shredders of the late 80s. I saw him live solo in the 2000s and was blown away. He's incredible and very funny too. Billy Sheehan is a beast on bass. They were at the same level of skills and shred capabilities, Paul and him. This band is often overlooked but if you grew up in the 80s and you liked guitar a little bit, you knew them and probably liked them. Most people just know the mandatory slow songs they would have to release as singles for their album promo and having radio time but they're a great rock band.
