shannon hawkins your wrong this dude has several pinch harmonics throughout the song. Very dry player thou compared to Zakk. Not even close to his level of play. This was 2010 which is when BLS started to hit their peak, but Zakk is now back with Ozzy. Which was enivitable. It’s like peanut butter & Jelly.
Gus is amazing , hell every guitarist Ozzy had is amazing but Jake and his Charvel to me is and will always be the best he has had after Randy passed, just my opinion , and was fired over greed because he would not sign all his music rights over to Sharon and Ozzy, so he has never got the money or recognition that he deserves for the music he wrote for Ozzy
Actually he did, That's the reason they fired him...He refused to release his already written tracks over to them unless he got royalties for his work and they had no choice but to give it to him...He deserved that money and Ozzy and Sharon were in high greed mode at the time...They robbed Zakk for years and he finally got fed up with it and knew the only way he was ever going to make any money was to form his own band BLS...Only thing Ozzy did for him is get him known and thats about it.
I was always a big fan of Jake E. Lee. Randy was great. Would've been awesome to see what could've been if he hadn't died. Yeah, greed is a mother too. Seems to be the way of alot of people when they have money. The more they get the more they want. I'm a believer in capitalism but greed will always be the downside of it. Not saying all rich people are like that cause ive known alot of them in my my life and I'd say most of them were pretty down to earth folks willing to help anybody. But there's always those few that want more more more. Power and control.
I met Gus the first time in Atlanta at Prog power. My band Krucible started the show and Firewind was right after us. We walked by and he congratulated me on a great set. and asked me to stand on his side and watch, so I did and was blown away. I see him every now and then. Great guy.
The audio really doesn't do Gus justice. Saw him live with Ozzy in a big arena and he's just amazing, really talented. The only thing lacking with Ozzy's performances today is Ozzy's voice sadly =/
MooseboyBrett I wrote that there's NOTHING wrong with his performance except his voice so obviously I don't want him to do backflips or stage dives....
the reason it's eating ass so badly is because Ozzy is singing flat. Reason for this is, Zakk dropped the tuning on the songs. He didnt just do this to sound heavier, he did this because Ozzy can't sing as high as he used to. Gus is playing the song in the normal tuning. Ozzy probably can't sing high enough anymore, and he was probably so used to singing on key with Zakk that he just couldn't get high enough to match Gus' tuning
@Keen R Dude I saw that tour in Fort Worth Texas and Metallica did open in supporting Master Of Puppets got to meet Metallica before the show shook all their hands including Cliff Burton, I remember him being grumpy at that time, didn't want to be bothered. I remember being totally blown away by Metallica the Setlist was their best. Battery Master of Puppets For Whom the Bell Tolls Welcome Home (Sanitarium) Ride the Lightning (Anesthesia) Pulling Teeth (preceded by The Star-Spangled Banner jam) Whiplash The Thing That Should Not Be Fade to Black Seek & Destroy Creeping Death Encore: 1 The Four Horsemen Guitar Solo Am I Evil? (Diamond Head cover) (half) Damage, Inc. Encore 2: Fight Fire With Fire So after watching them destroy the stage I thought Ozzy's going to have to perform a miracle to outshine Metallica and needless to say his Ozzness didn't disappoint Bark at the Moon Suicide Solution Never Know Why Mr. Crowley Shot in the Dark I Don't Know Killer of Giants Thank God for the Bomb The Ultimate Sin Flying High Again Secret Loser Iron Man Crazy Train Paranoid I remember ozzy comes out on stage dressed in a werewolf outfit and launched into Bark At The Moon that show was one of my favorite shows Jake was amazing. Jake did a solo that seemed longer then 10 minutes I remember Ozzy dragging Jake around the stage by his hair. I think James broke his arm skate boarding right after this show is why they cancelled the show you were at.
Bark at the moon es una obra de arte musicalmente hablando, la guitarra es impresionantemente fuerte en sus 2 solos, Jake E Lee es, a mi criterio, el mejor guitarrista que pasó por las filas de Ozzy Osbourne, sin desmerecer a Randy Roads, le dió mucha mas fuerza a las canciones de Ozzy y su mejor epoca y mejores discos son con Jake E Lee
Jake was good during this album...but, I'm not sure if he can do on the same level. Me, I'm not sure. I've listened some his stuff, I don't like it. His sound like, Dokken, etc.
@@heut4384 like today ? Can he do it today ? Like 35+ year later ? No Jake's speed amd dexterity isnt the same. It's ok to dislike jake. You're entitled to your opinion. Youre entitled to be wrong.
Saw Ozzy in Nashville TN in 2010 for my 16th birthday. Had food poisoning and threw up in my moms BMW and was so fucking sick the security people at the show put me in the VIP section so I could be close to the shitter. It was so fucking awesome
I remember being reluctant to give Gus a chance when he got the gig. The new songs they came out with at the time didn't do a whole lot for me even though they were good songs. Watching this now, I see Gus does does an excellent job playing this song. He's a great performer too.
@MVia love randy. LOVE HIM. but prime Jake is as good as anyone ever was. 2 ozzy albums. His solo fine pink mist record and those band lands records. Greatness
@UCFkEWyWQT7nhG7AjEos6tFA Yeah...you know what, you're right. I didn't think about a few years ago. Once I had listened, I realized, Gus G is not very creative. His playing is no more than just an common player. hmmmmm. Now, I do agree.
Gus really didn’t have big shoes to fill replacing Zak. Nothing compared to when Jake joined Ozzy barely 25 years old replacing Randy. The Great Randy Rhoads
Yeah I think Gus is in that weird spot where he doesn't really have his own sound imo. I guess he's kinda like Broderick in Megadeth where they get the stuff done but nothing as far as putting their own thing to it. I think Gus is closest to Jake's style though so he's great at this song.
Ozzy has been doing the same thing on stage for the past 40 years...walking to the side of the stage, back to microphone stand, clipping the microphone into holder, taking it out of the stand, walk to other side of stage, repeat....😂
Gus G doesn't receive nearly the recognition that he should have while playing with Ozzy. He's the third best guitarist Ozzy ever had, behind Randy and Jake.
@david Greene I liked some of the early stuff (Mama I'm coming home is probably one of my favorite Wylde Solos, as well as No More Tears) I can agree that I like more Black Label tracks honestly. I was surprised how much I enjoyed BLS acoustic tracks
Gus G. effing ROCKS! Ozzy's best players, ranked: Randy Rhoads, Jake E. Lee, Gus G. The ad nauseum pinched harmonics guy from New Jersey is at the bottom.
Love to listen this song live without excesive pinch harmonics every time. I love Zakk but in the 1988-1992 Era, qhen it was so awesome like a younger RR. But as his beard grows he ruined most of the classics songs. Ironically BLS sounded more and more excellent when the years passed.
Seen all Ozzy’s guitarist live including Brad except this guy...I would stick with Zakk he’s amazing saw him on G-3 & experience Hendrix as well as 4 or 5 tmes with Ozzy...he can’t be touched...Randy was extremely gifted saw him at Reunion arena in Dallas just a couple of months or so before he died nothing can be said about him that hasn’t already been said but I love Jake as well. There is no such thing as best as they all have their own style but all of Ozzy’s guitarist over the years have been fucking amazing. Imagine if he would have landed Gary Moore early on....holy shit. But RR actually changed the course of metal.
You know how that goes. Had to be someone Sharon can control. Zakk is loyal as hell to Ozzy and would always be there. This is her decision. After a while Sharon just naturally wants someone she can give less money to. Bottom line.
gotta disagree i seen Jake 2 times and zakk and Joe Holmes and Gus once..he is good and refreshing....Zakk just plays it safe. and ive seen him 4 times W the Boss......so i always enjoy diff players with ozz.....there will never be a permenant guy....i heard Sharon say it backstage afyer Randy passed Ozz has a hard time with keeping that slot nailed down
@@kellykasparek8150 Yeah, when Zakk first came out though for No Rest , that was the fuckin' shit man!! I love that period. (i LOVE Jake E. Man do i wish i could have seen him! even for badlands!)
@@BubbaZen10 i used to have a cable TV show in the late 80s in Houston TX i interviewed alot of the openers for OZZ over that decade....and in 91 on the No More Tours tour i spoke to Sharon about the slot she said Ozz has a very hard time bonding and keeping a relationship going.(because of Randy) you have to remember he watched this guy burn to death...he was in the bus when the plane hit... GRANTED Sharon is always being a cheapass hag and firing anyone who asks for songwriting or royalties . raises Ect Ect.
I never gave jake a chance now listening man dude was awesome I liked him better than zakk just now hearing this dude 10 years later he shreds to bad he didn’t stick around there all good ozzy hit pay dirt with all these guys some say George lynch almost signed with ozzy
finally, ozzy got a guitarist who can play without the whah whah pedal half cocked the whole gig. Zakk is a solid guitarist but that damn whah pedal gets on my nerves. Actually, the world could do without whah pedals and it would be just fine.
It’s okay to be entitled to your own opinion but don’t compare jake to gus, they are both incredible guitar players but they are not the same person they both have their unique styles only they can produce.
