His lead was matched this night only by the great Leslie West. My favorite Steve Hunter lead is the intro to Sweet Jane on Rock and Roll Animal. God damn he could lay it down.
Blessings upon whoever posted this, those who KNOW, KNOW, Steve "THE DEACON" Hunter is simply one of the best of all time, he's worked with the "who's who" of modern music, and there's a REASON why! I consider myself lucky to have seen him back in the day, this is a fine illustration as to WHY he's held in such high regard! Thanks again from all true music fans for posting this. Oh, and a shout out to Peter Haycock from the Climax Blues Band also on this, I saw them open for RAINBOW on the "Rising" tour at the Starlight Ampitheatre in Burbank, California, and Climax Blues Band was one great opening act that night!
You know .. lou reed live .. black &white cover , lou sunglasses and slough cap , stars and collar .... is the second part of the rock n roll animal concerts ... only differance is they changed side of speakers each comes out from ... so r n r animal & lou reed live are a 2 set of those concerts ...
Hi Alan, just seen your comment. I have a DVD copy and yes, the VHS. Not sure where in the world you are but the DVD is commercially available?? Here in the UK
Not just Heroin, the whole album is just the best of Rock and Roll. Have in vinil,tkc and cd. Bought the album in 1976,heard here in Brazil and 20 minutes later was buying one.Envy whoever was there watching alive....in a good way
Last time I saw Steve was in 2013 with Alice Cooper, still great and the audience couldn't get enough of him. Before that is was 1977 silver screen tour with Alice Cooper.
For those Steve "Decator Gator" Hunter fans check out Mitch Ryder's Detroit lp on RU-vid. "Drink" is possibly the sweetest blues solo ever recorded by anyone and its one of Steve's best..
FUCK LOU! TRASH! I never liked HIM! Very over-rated! It was his Band members that were the real genus behind the junkie! Best song by Steve - & that's a very hard call as everything the Steve touches is beyond platinum! Lou never deserved any of the guys that made him. He's just a rock - they were the STARS!
@@timhoovermusicman I don't either, specially those who are making any sense in what they are saying. If you had some kind of education, respect,courtesy and brain which is clear you have not. Read and try hard to make this rotten brain do some work. Is clear to me i was writing with someone that thought like I did 7 years ago. Now out of the blue comes an idiot , referring you,making sure you understand. Look with attention and you'll see the conversation is not in order,also the other part comments are not here,why? Have no idea,now who are you to come cursing ,calling me drunk and so on without a reason ?
@@markriobr sure he did not like my friend. Then you babble he is the one who not shines😂WHAT? You sounded drunk or on hard drugs... you have a friend? Surprising.do us all a favor and play in a busy street.
