    Sixteen Stone is a brilliant album. Even though it was right in the Grunge period, it really stood out as more of a rock album. Little Things, Machinehead....amazing. All of it. Thanks Gavin. Oh and I would venture to say that John 5 likes it, too!

      Damon Briggs their debut album sold 6 million copies in America alone, and they have sold over 20 million worldwide, so somebody must like them. When their album first came out, I remember Dave Grohl said on MTV he thought Bush was the best of the bands who were obviously influenced by Nirvana.

      Tronald Dump lol take foo fighters name out of there please. Name another band who has consistently released new music that charts and sells millions and allows the band to tour stadiums globally every album cycle for 25 years? Foo Fighters might be the greatest rock band ever on those metrics.

      @@abewilcox4560 worse than nu metal? Yeah, I doubt that. This time in music gave us a LOT of good bands, and I count Bush among them. This album was impossibly popular literally everywhere on Earth at the time. It's one of the biggest selling albums of the decade, and the nineties outsold nearly everything before it.

    I met Gavin Rosedale back in 1999 at the X-103.9 Alternative Rock radio station in San Bernardino, CA, with my then girlfriend Kelly Doyle. He had an interview about their newest record "The Science Of Thing's". And he also shared some of his favorite Steve Albini Produced records, from "The Jesus Lizard" to "The Pixies". I had my guitar with me outside the station, and when done, Gavin, actually walked outside to the front of the station by the parking lot, posed for pictures with eager fans and even signed my acoustic guitar with a permanent marker and he also pluck some strings, I'll never forget it!!!

    Nigel Pulsford, Robin Goodridge and Dave Parsons were the original Bush lineup along with Gavin. They all made Sixteen Stone sound like the Best grunge and rock álbum of its time.
    I Wont forget when in 1997 I was 15 and thought the whole World was spinning around Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Soundgarden but me and my pals discovered a New reléased álbum, Razorblade Suitcase and were blown away by it, but our jaws dropped to the floor when we listened to songs like Little Things, Testosterone, Glycerine, etc. A genuine masterpiece. I Will admire these guys until my memory remains. Sorry for the long comment but these blokes were my heroes.

Sixteen stone is my favorite album ever, I graduated 2001 and razorblade is tremendous too, cant stand any of the other stuff til kingdom, if they keep shooting that direction, I have Hope's of a stone-blade equivalent. Think kingdom is the legitimate successor to razorblade. Give a fuck about the critics (fuck YOU, ALL of u unoriginal hacks).

      tomtomthebear 👍🏿 That TONE in general. British amps, a beast all their. Lol it’s probably a goddamn fender tweed. Idk what it is, the rhythm guitar on Bush’s albums always had that very distinct tone, that to this day, is distinctively Bush. I’m gonna say Rossdale in particular. He’s had few different lineups, and I can’t say that I’ve ever really took note of who was playing when, other than 16 stone and the tour to support it. And then the lead guitarist for the Wallflowers sort of looked like Nigel and then for some reason (I’m gonna say it was the drugs and alcohol abuse) everything became convoluted.

    We used to cover a few Bush tunes in '96. This dude hasn't aged a jot. They were good and the mid/late 90's in the UK were a fkn blast.

    Cold contagious has an absolutely gorgeous guitar sound... so raw. Very underated as a guitar album, Razorblade Suitcase sounds very original to me. One of my favorite albums!

      There is something about that song. So dark and depressive. The guitar tone is amazing.

    30 years later, you still blow my mind. This song came out when I was 8 or 9? I remember seeing you on TV, trying to be just like you, even thru high-school. Here I am, nearly 40, still listening to Bush every fuckin day!

      Maybe it was purchased with the advance from his label signing? Like lot of rappers do these days. Get their signing bonus, go out buy cars and jewelry to look good in very first video. For rock bands they usually spend it on solid equipment.

    Bush was a huge influence on my guitar playing ! It started with Sixteen Stone and I was hooked. If Gavin is listening can you demonstrate Come Down ? That song was perfect for my life at the time and personally lifted me up ! Always love playing that time to time on my Strat really loud :)

  • @benedictjephcote6815

    Namechecks John 5 and then reveals that a guitar originally belonging to Joe Walsh was played through Sixteen Stone. That's a great run through of different guitar history to start a vid.

      I got it for my 5th grade birthday party in 1995. Haha it had been out for a year or so at that point but was still mega popular. Another kid gave me Green Day- Insomniac at the same party. Still have both those original CDs.
