Cantrell is the overall most talented musician to emerge from the grunge scene. Yes, among all those legends, this fella wrote, sung and played like no other could
One of the best songwriters ever, a truly special musician.
And Chris cornell
@@onepunchflan3071agreed
@@onepunchflan3071right on
I totally agree, Jerry is a huge force and immense talent, but lest we forget Matt Cameron. Even in his 60s he still managed to play drums for both soundgarden and pearl jam on tour at the same time. That's a powerhouse.
Duvall is awesome, doesnt matter how much you love Layne
He's 10x better than layne
@mustobey : Nice try filthy troll.
@@MustObeyTheRules Good one. Now fuck off.
he is so good. i'm so glad they found each other ;O)
@@jeed888 duvall can't wipe Layne's ass. Layne forever.
Thank you Jerry for surviving and keeping this sound alive! 🙌🏿
So true! Jerry makes such emotional and simple melodies! He is so inspiring...
Jerry Is A legend!
Right on
Agreed
Amen and amen! 🙏 When I think about him and his own demons, the skydiving incident years ago where his shoot almost didn't open, plus other self destructive paths that he once trod, I'm so very thankful he is still with us. Not only because of the music, but because of who he is as a person: solid, humorous, grounded, loyal, and definitely someone I WISH were in my sphere of friends to just chew the fat with for hours....
That Guild 12-string sounds SICK!
Yeah it does!!!
Jerry is too good..He could not stop..We all know that he is the driving force of the band.The mastermind.Without him,there would be no AIC.
How true you are. ❤
The songs about Layne and told by Jerry through his own eyes. Will's been nothing but an outstanding addition to this band!!! Long Live Alice in Chains🎸🎤☝👍😙
Every time that Jerry plays the guitar is just magic to me.
Jerry Cantrell is so underrated love all his solo stuff
Agreed. He's a wonderful wordsmith and guitarist. special guy for sure.
Well said
Jacob Barnett totally agree brother. He's great.
Eric Cartman hahahahahahaha
Could not agree more. I wish I had half his talent. The older I get the more I appreciate guys like him and the more I feel like I have done absolutely nothing of meaning in my life outside of raising two fine young men along with being a good husband (I think) to my wife. The ability to write and play music is just a talent that I don't have and one I would give a lot to acquire.
Duvall is an EXCELLENT ADDITION to Alice in Chains. He has played a huge underated roll in keeping the spirit of AIC alive and well despite tragedy(s)
William is multi-talented... I am grateful that he joined the band. Appears to be a great guy as well, always giving props to Layne during shows.
Took me awhile to come around to William at first but wow, AIC is still great and he is a talented singer!
@@outsideofsociety4812 I loved the sound immediately once WD came in, but it took me a minute to accept the new AIC brand. WD is now a full piece of AIC's legacy in my mind.
Off-the-chain talent. and a SOBER man!
Tell me how
Considering Jerry is the "manager" of the group and is the driving force and also considering 2 of his band members basically died from an overdose, I think he wants serious commitment from then on and duval seems like a decent member that isn't gonna party too hard if you know what I mean
That look and laugh Jerry gave William at 3:55 for extra little vocal, tells you all you need to know about the dynamic of this band and how they love to perform.
Chance Creeley that’s how jerry is to this day. he appreciates good art when he sees it. i suggest watching their unplugged version of rooster, and watch how Cantrell looks at mike inez when he plays a part he wasn’t supposed to
Ali Sulaiman i think Jerry knew but it wasnt supossed playin that
I think its refreshing to see a season musician, as Jerry is, still so passionate about the music. You can see it when he performs.
@@ali965 you are sooo right, man! Thanks for that heads up! LOVED it!
@@MrTechselect And when he talks about music in interviews. He can't hold down his incredible passion. It's what makes him JERRY CANTRELL!
Glad to hear someone else appreciates DuVall's talents and abilities. I miss Layne like anyone; but I get tired of all the dissing on DuVall.
20 fingers ,18 strings, two masters of their craft, doesn’t get any better!
18 strings?
I can't get this song out of my head. Love this version, Jerry's laughter shows that He enjoys playing with William .
Jerry has always enjoyed playing with William, that’s why he’s in the band. William and his band opened for Jerry in 01/02 and then they’d pull double duty and play as Jerry’s band for his set. Years down the line when they thought about reforming the band Jerry suggested William and then he came in and the band played together and Sean and mike agreed he was the one. 15 years later they’re all still kickin ass and get along great, fantastic chemistry between Jerry/Will which is so incredibly important for a band like AIC. So happy the band is still around and they brought in William all those years ago, great decision.
Man they harmonize really well together. I'm so used to Layne and Jerry still. This is different from that, but its also just as good. They really play well together. Stoked that AIC found such a genuine talent.
Better then the dope head Staley
@@BrianCarnevaleB26 staley was an all time great vocalist. possibly best of his era. addictions not a joke:(
This is sad people shouldn't call someone any name that puts down their addictions we all fight demons some more then others. It's apparent some cope in ways to make themselves feel better by putting down someone else about their demons. This world is sad and Los several friends to these demons can be the hardest pill to swallow. May there be hope In this world for people with their demons
@@BrianCarnevaleB26your a horrible person. Please humble yourself
@@BrianCarnevaleB26 you’re a crap person Idc
JERRY CANTRELL in my opinion is one of the most talented musicians around,,the way he structure's and uses harmony is truly greatness
Layne will never be replaced. But damn, William is the double threat.. great front man and guitar back up for Jerry. Just killer.
Jerry.... Thank you for being so damn strong all of these years!!! You are the rock for the thousands and thousands of fans that have been left with sadness and confusion .. heart of a lion, brave and strong. Thank you!
gabriela rodriguez love u comment
Onyz Moon Cool comment Mick Jagger
Thank you for saying that it’s the truth !
Strong like bull.
I have loved William from minute one in this band. He harmonizes with Jerry in a way that still makes Jerry sound like Alice in Chains. His participation has afforded us three more AIC albums.
One of the few bands that still sound like 90's in the 20's.
It's the 20's already? Sheet...
We are already in the 2020s?
Connor Fin Whoops, my b :D
+samuel saarinen... we all know what you meant...Connor fin is just a douche lol
Gregory Chuhta Dont see how correcting someone makes me a douche.
Man they sound phenomenal. Layne will always be sorely missed, but I'm sure he would be looking down and smiling at this.
This moves me. Just when you think you can't get over Layne. No one will ever replace him, but William Duval keeps me listening to one of my all time favorite bands. Well done. !!!
Jerrys so happy at the end haha That's what playing music is all about
hell yeah
2:56 these dudes play incredibly together...that rhythm switch was impeccable. Solid gold
The duet between these two is so great, the chemistry they make during the performance was.. inexplainable.
Plus Jerry's laughs hahahaha, "NICE."
Unplugged versions are often the finest form.
We need a new MTV Unplugged, but with this AiC and their new songs.
This genre of music lends itself to the acoustic format really, really well.
@@shivs_nb no, the original mtv was great and so was the Alice In Chains unplugged, mtv is a joke now, the original is a Masterpiece, I say leave it as it is
William DuVall is a great guitar player.
And his vocals are getting better with the years
I've just recently listened to his solo record and Comes with the Fall stuff - he is phenomenal! No wonder Jerry became a fan of his
Thank you William for taking the spot left vacant by the great Layne Staley. Giving us new AIC albums for many years to come. He took the front man spot humbly and harmonizes with Jerry as well as anyone other than Layne could have. His talent on the guitar adds a little something else to the unmistakable AIC sound!
I can't get over how good this sounds
This sounds soooo good!
I think it’s better than the album version.
I can't either. I was obssesed with the vocal harmonies And guitars for a few weeks straight. So naturally I had to do my own cover of it :D
Thank God they are still making music!!!!!
They are just incredible together. I mean, it will never be what Layne and Jerry sounded like, but William is an amazing singer. I'm really glad they found him
at 2:25 their guitars are in amazing harmony.
Pretty good considering William is playing a 12 string.
I played Takamine for years...when it comes to acoustic guitars I don't want my hands on anything other than Guild...beatuiful instruments and craftsmanship.
They still have a sound that only Alice In Chains can create. I love it! Way to preserve the sound Jerry! Your real fans still love you!😃
Probably my favorite song since William came into the band!! I'm 45yo and been a fan since the very beginning!!! Layne will NEVER be replaced, but this song is so AWESOME!!!
I’ll always miss Layne as he was such an amazing voice . Having Alice in Chains back is worth so much.
Those GUILD guitars sounds like Heaven ! These boys are just AMASING ! Thanks for posting.
Alice in chains are not only the greatest grunge band in history,they are one of the greatest bands,look at there back catalogue of musical styles and directions they have taken,they made Jar of flies which was up there with any Led zep song,songs like Man in the box and rooster solidified there claim on the grunge genre,they can own an acoustic set,as well as selling out an arena,and they play fucking awesome live.
More talent in this video than the majority of shite you hear on the radio, this is pure.
Agreed!
7 even thirty3, I love that you said that. SO TRUE!!!
I always liked AIC, but lately as Im getting older Im realizing theyre a much better band the I even thought they were, way to keep the sound alive, and as much as i loved Layne, Duvall is damn good too.
I hear ya, I heard them before their first album came out. I’m like meh they’re alright and wow have they stepped up their game over the years. I heard them open for great white in Spokane Washington in 88? Or 89.. wild to think how long ago that was now.
If this doesn't show you Alice In Chains is still going strong, I don't know what
will. It still has all the elements of their earlier tunes. Amazing.
Best version on youtube, in my opinion.
Im one of Staley's biggest fans, he saved my life through his music and inspired me to become a musician myself - but some of you people need to give it (and him) a rest. Good on Jerry and the rest for carrying on and making great music that only further serves to honor the memory of Layne. Without them, his death would have continued to be ignored by the music world in general. They're carrying on his legacy. And much love and respect to William. Them's some big shoes to fill. He's awesome.
I can’t believe how old this is. I still regularly listen to this and think of it as the new stuff. I’m the one getting old.
This is still such a great band. My hats off to jerry for keeping it alive. Much respect to the new material & a breath of fresh air to the old stuff as well.
Love how they flawlessly switch over the lead and rhythm parts before/during/after the main solo.
Haha i love that look jerry gives will after the improvised "Yeaaah"
Haha total Layne move
of course layne was a huge part of aic, however...these two make such a good musical team, it is really awesome to see jerry and william playing together like this... no one playing over or against the other... its perfect
You couldn't ask for two better guys to represent your guitars
No one plans to take the path that brings you lower, and here you stand before os all and say it's over, over... Man that end hits me rigth on the feels! Great song. Love alice in chains, Layne is a legend but the band is great still.
just like in the album Duvall is doing a great job and Jerry perfect as always
DuVall is great!! They both sound great together.
I dont understand the thumbs down...this is amazing
Thi K These are from Metallica's fans.
Some people don't know great music when they hear it
Thi Kim butthurt Layne fans that cant let them move on
Prolly One Direction fans.....
Thi Kim probably Beatles fans 😝
I love the solo in this one. so simple, so beautiful
i think the new dude is great....people have to learn to move on and stop romanticising layne AIC is jerry end of story - new cd is amazing
guy, the voice of the layne is the most beautiful voice that I ever heard
This guy Michael isn't a true AIC fan
Well sorry to say Joe but I am an AIC fan - Jerry is one of the most talented song in modern music...and i am able to have an opinion that differs from yours. Is that ok??????????? Is it numbskull?
michael88863 THANK YOU! I have been saying forever that Alice in Chains IS, WAS and ALWAYS WILL BE Jerry motherfucking Cantrell!!! \,,/
***** A band is a group of people, and its sound is a combination of those people. So yeah, while Layne was a HUGE part of the original AIC sound, he wasn't the whole thing... it was always four guys. Layne was one of the four guys. I like the new sound. It doesn't move me in the same way as Dirt or Jar of Flies but it's still really good. Phantom Limb is the coolest metal song I've heard in years.
William seems like such a nice guy of course he can't "replace" layne or sing anything like him but the dude fits in pretty good
Totally agree with you. Everyone knows that no one can replace Layne. I mean, no one can replace anyone for that matter haha. The dude's a great vocalist and guitarist and also seems very humble. Amazing musician for sure and Jerry seems to enjoy his presence in the band as well.
Good to see people accept William and allow the band to keep on doing what they (and I myself) love so much.
I for one as much as I respect Layne (I grew up with them) I like this incarnation of the band better.
he's just a lovely man
I Agree!
Renzokuken Leneyoyo yea now they need to do the same for linkin park and soundgarden
Between those two beautiful guitars, Jerry's perfect rhythm, voice, Will's lovely harmony and lead work (on a freaking 12-string no less...)
I seriously cannot decide what is more beautiful here.
I am just thankful the new record is done.
But most importantly I am glad Jer looks happy, healthy and at peace with the World.
Oh and I love Jer's recognition laugh @ Will's improvisation @ 3:55
Peace
not knocking ne1 but the harmonies Staley and Cantrell had together could never be duplicated, great guitar playing
Never appreciated William Duvall until this video. Their harmonizing was perfect here.
It's nice to see Jerry smiling.
Yes !!!
No One plans to take the path that brings you lower, here you stand before us all an say its over.... Cantrell is so underrated its insane. One of the greatest songwriters of any generation.
What an incredible amazing version of Your Decission..Which is one of my absolute favourite songs ever. First time I heard it ,went non stop all day all time!Jerry Cantrell is one of the most underrated musicians..he deserves the best..he's one of the most talent genius " one in a million " gold metal master king..Love Jerry and best ever AIC ..without Jerry there would be no AIC ..Love you guys and Your Decission ..AIC Best Forever
Ever stop to think how amazing it is that humans are capable of something as beautiful as this with just their voices and acoustic guitars? I have...many times, usually when I hear something like the song performed here by Jerry Cantrell and William DuVall. Thanks for the video, Guild! (I'm a proud owner of one, by the way. Thanks for making such amazing guitars!) These videos are great, because they not only showcase how perfect these guitars sound, but they capture the beauty of the souls who play them through the music they make. Jerry and William definitely proved that in this video. (Hi, Jamie Murphy! Thanks for making me aware of these Guild videos! I tried to reply to your comment, but there wasn't any hypertext on UA-cam or your page.)
Excellent. He really shadows and compliments Jerry on an excellent level :) Welcome to the band, screw all the haters :)
They blend really good agreed
Guild what a beautiful sounding guitar and the bands still putting out great stuff
Man! That song is so beautiful!
to many dislikes..
how.who would dislike??
this is a masterpiece ..
im a musician and liked it..
so whoever disliked wasnt a real fan and musician anyhow..
rock band greats of all time..
alice n chains number 1 fo me
This acoustic version is so awesome. Jerry is amazing, as always, as songwriter, guitarist and vocalist.
Wow! These guys sounded great. I haven't heard Jerry Cantrell in years. Looks like he is doing well, nice to see.
I love this acoustic version
NickMach007 he's done a ton. Checkout his double CD Degradation Trip. It's anazing
I still get goosebumps, i always still hear laynes voice!!
that little smile when Will starts picking. think of the body of work swirling around in his head. and yet that exact moment he smiled, as if hearing a sweet riff for the 1st time again in the mid 80s maybe? thank you God for Jerry Cantrell.
That’s just incredible. This performance was quite a beautiful moment in time.
Time to change has come and gone
Watched your fears become your God
It's your decision
It's your decision
Overwhelmed, you chose to run
Apathetic to the stunned
It's your decision
It's your decision
You feed the fire that burned us all
When you lie
To feel the pain that spurs you on
Black inside
No one plans to take the path that brings you lower
And here you stand before us all and say it's over
It's over
It might seem an afterthought
Yes, it hurts to you know you're bought
It's your decision
It's your decision
You feed the fire that burned us all
When you lie
To feel the pain that spurs you on
Black inside
It's your decision
It's your decision
No one plans to take the path that brings you lower
And here you stand before us all and say it's over
It's over, it's over
As someone who loved the original lineup it’s taken me many years to open myself up to listening to non Layne songs but I gotta say this is a tune.
Jerry we all appreciate your contribution to the world of music
Amazing sound of guitars and their performances! 90s always alive!
+Rafael Garcia Except that song was written in 2009. Just sayin.
+God Smack I did not say that the music they play is of 90 years, but the timbre and soul of AIC lives.
OK, gotcha.
Thank you for being an inspiration always, Jerry. You persevered through many obstacles and have proven yourself over and over as an amazing person, guitarist, songwriter, singer... I feel you are underrated! William Duval you are amazing 🎤💋Love you both😘💕
Thankyou Jerry for your artistry and bringing lane into your world
I grew up in Seattle and adore alice in chains. Love that Jerry is still as masterful as ever.
One of my favourites.. don't forget to tune down 1/2 step
DAMN!!SOUNDS AS GOOD AS THE STUDIO VERSION,JERRY IS SUCH AN AWESOME TALENT AND WILLIAM IS ALSO A GREAT ADDITION TO THIS SONG,DUVALL ISN'T LAYNE BUT HE'S GREAT NONE THE LESS👍
Such a great performance on beautiful instruments. William is just gold to the band...he can sing AND play guitar, opening new possibilities to arrange guitar parts in songs. Also check out his solo album One Alone. I saw him perform live in a tiny club in Berlin, Germany last year...only he and his voice, two acoustic Gibsons, a mic and a bit of reverb here and there, and the small audience was riveted. Awsome performer and a great musician.
Those 2 guitars in-sync at the end is some of the best I’ve seen.
Sounds amazing Duvall and Jerry have fantastic chemistry together both vocally and instrumentally. Very glad AIC is still alive kickin ass or else we wouldn’t have gotten anymore great videos like this one and many others
these guys can rock amazing performance this was when artists required talent Jerry Cantrell is such an amazing guitarist!
i think this album is the best one in their catalog. a hell of an achievement considering just how good the others are.
Totally agree
I’m not sure id say it’s the best but it’s really really fuckin good and can hold its own against any AIC record. Completely blows my mind how people hate on this band and call them a cover band now even when they release incredible albums like this one and sound great live too. Those people who won’t give the Duvall era stuff a real chance are fuckin idiots and I’ll never trust them when it comes to music. BGWTB is one of the best albums of the last 2 decades, some of their best songs ever on that record too, TDPDH kicks ass too and rainier fog is very solid as well. Long live AIC
Tough competition with The Devil Put Dinosaurs Here and Dirt.
@@Tocaraca well said. aic's catalog is consistently good, those 2 albums without question stand out among a group of fantastic records.
Wow! I love the sound of those Guild Guitars.
Harmony in 4 different directions in perfect step with each other
DuVall really compliments Jerry. Those 2 together are prime time. And just as good in this day and age as Layne was in the 90s. I love this song. Subliminal messages about Layne. We miss you Layne! William gets a lot of bs. He never replaced anyone. Jerry thought he would be good member for the band. Jerry is the lead singer here and still one the GOAT 🐐 🙌 👏
Thanks. This is now on my regular playlist. God bless ▶️
I love their acoustic stuff just as much
Those harmonies give me chills
Jerry has a really good voice and Will is also really good
God I have listened to this song a thousand times and every time I do I cry . Thank you Jerry , I obviously love you ⭐️⭐️⭐️🎶🎶⭐️⭐️
The tones these dudes are making come out of those guitars is pure euphoria .
I hadn't yet caught this particular take and version as a harmonizing duet and had honestly never checked out Billy D banging out some licks while in unison. Just holding and emphasizing such a magnificent Diatonic pitch and even getting a chuckle out of Jerry on the finish of the second last chorus`s final line of the verse with his kutzpah. Billy is the Shit fo sho and wish I had picked up on just how much so way earlier. But better late than never,right? Thus Spent a few repeats on take and grabbed one of my 6 stringed acoustics and realized I hadnt down tuned, especially a half step to start in E flat in forever. Felt so natural and strumming out the final product after a quick tap through in harmonic scale to then thrusted out that classic solid sustaining E major after just tuned to ensure the pitch and intonation was perfect....I then realized I was now on a higher plane of existence known as Uncle Jerry`s 5th Dimension of Acoustic Bliss. Hadnt a guitar in the house in a couple years until recently despite a house load of studio gear. My head is still spinning. But as I continued to absorb and repeat the scaled rhythm.That drop to D and shift to C in proper is key and the hook that catches. I embarked on arranging to add a third being me to this tune while relearning it all over again. Splitting it into segments so all 3 had our own and also coinciding parts.. Billy and I are pretty darn rad just off each other imho not just with Jerry ;)
Love this song and AIC!
nich
Layne would b proud
+Jeffrey Leone
Yes he would be....very proud. AIC still sounds amazing and I will always love their style. For me, the best band to come out of the GRUNGE SCENE!
This sound. It makes me grateful to be alive.🤘🇺🇸
Love how the two voices blend. Awesome job!
perfeito...🎤🎸📝👨👨
