….you came, didn’t you?

@@frankthespank wtf?

@@fenderboy68 What? Just making an observation… 🤓

Jason Becker's work on "Its Showtime" with DLR is another apex rock guitar solo. I consider it more "extreme" as Becker was in the beginning stages of ALS when he recorded it.

@@rogerdat7807I have to say that the “It’s Showtime” is more of an extreme solo, it was beyond extreme. Jason Becker was so extreme at playing that it blew my mind. If you ever hear what he did with “Hot For Teacher” by Van Halen in a demo that he actually sent to David Lee Roth before he got the job with Dave, it would blow your mind too. Jason was faster than Yngwie and hit more notes too. Nuno, is really incredible though, they should have continued with “HE-MAN Woman hater” in this video, that solo is even more incredible than “Get the funk out”.

I agree

Lol

Problem is as a one off they made one of the best balads in their time and it became a huge hit (more than words). And their other material is a bit more... "extreme"? That probably was an issue for them to become huge.

ใครประเมิน หรือคุณคิดไปเอง

Same thing happened with Mr. Big and 'To Be With You'...a full-on hard rock band, but wrongly typecast by a mega ballad hit. Between Paul Gilbert and Billy Sheehan Mr. Big had more musical firepower than anyone since Dave Lee Roth's 'Eat Em And Smile'-era band, but they got known for a sappy ballad and that was it. And oh yeah, Nuno is just amazing. I was lucky enough to catch Extreme on the 'Pornograffiti' tour in the Bristol Bierkeller, UK, and they were just a force of nature; note perfect down from the shred-tacular solos all the way to legit four-part vocal harmonies.

Not for me Trumpets>Guitars

Pat’s live tone really rips!

It's funny- I didn't miss the horns until I read the comments! Big talent == Big sound. I regret not seeing these guys in concert.

Sounds better without the horns....sounds like a real rock n roll song now

@@RtroyD I agree it’s leas gimmicky without the horns

I would love to

My loss😢

I remember Gary going to his HS where his mom taught gym ...I was in her class ..Kids were all around him..Played at a now gone restuarant BeanSprouts in Malden his hometown...When they were the Dream and needed to change the name The Dream became Extreme..

Mark Griffiths It's in the 10 commandments, Thou shalt not forget how good Nuno is :)

Brad Ford GOOD ONE! lol Billion "likes" dude

+Mark Griffiths Portugal is the fuking best NUNO best guitar cr7 best Football

Mark Griffiths i

He's not bad is he?

Uh-huh, so crazy.

in not the greatest band

To put him above the rest would be insane. There's been too many incredible guitarists to say that a single one is the best. However, I do remember when I first listened to Pornograffitti. I'm a decent guitarist, and the first words out of my mouth was, "who the hell is this cat?" By the way, my "favorite" all-time great guitarist (I have so many) is Neil Schon. You have to listen to a lot of his solo work to get an appreciation of how great he really is. Not many realize that Neil is probably one of the best "blues" players in the world!

Neil is a stud.. used to listen to him a lot myself. He's nowhere near as technically gifted as Nuno (few are) but he's great. Very tasteful chops.

hes one among many great guitar legends :)

give me Gary Moore over anybody anyday (soooooo versatile) - but Nuno has mega-chops. The best thing that Schon ever did that i heard was the live album with Sammy Hagar, I can't stand that cheesey motherfecking group he is in LOL

The bass player... ! Learn his name! He is the total shit !!! Pat Badger!!!

That drummer took over Paul Geary, and he is second best, but a total loyal to the band!!

Sick...He's waaayy too good.

A highly underrated Monster.

I'd fight my way up front there just to stare at him playing. Then I'd be falling asleep playing guitar at home for days...

@@kenmushrow9170 not by me

And with a four string bass!

F'n Pat Badger! 💙💙💙

Pat Badger is a talented dude. Sing & play.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

@@garyfoster3854 average pornogore fan.

Lucky bastard

You are so lucky

Sorry to break your heart. But another friend

Just through my cousin. I guess by accident...

Cool you, envy you!

Larry Edwards Amen!

i do

Plenty of people play like him. Nuno's a fine player, but fine players aren't in any shortage.

Thankfully

Yes, even almighty paul gilbert play rythm for nuno 😅

Silver Tuna that’s what I’m thinking! How?

Long ass limbs and digits

Agree 100%. I haven't listened to any new music in years. I don't even turn on the radio in my car anymore, all classic rock stations play the same ol' shit day after day. No one plays any obscure classics anymore except the KSHE Klassics Show, and that's only on Sunday mornings before I wake up.

Record companies are sighing anybody.

They are back 🤘😀🤘

@@Yosser70and how!

😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

I was able to get the guitar eventually, just never could get that good with these little Vienna Sausage fingers of mine. Don't get me wrong, I got pretty good at one point.., just not THAT good. LOL

I'm 36 and I still want to be him =D

I think that was his intention

Who doesn't get a decent strum out of playing their selves after all these years

playing with yourself for that long? :D

more like vs. Benfica....

Yes.

Pitt Stainz General public has never really appreciated guys who are as good as nuno is, but with a lot of us, Nuno was REALLY big back around that time. The people into self pity, potato chips and pot all went to Nirvana (and I remember those days well, because I was in a cover band and all the sudden everyone wanted to hear smells like teen spirit over and over - it was obnoxious). The fact that bands like extreme are still around and putting butts in seats and sounding great shows who the trendy posers were and who is the real deal. I still listen to the first 3 extreme albums on a regular basis at work. There's some stuff that's so good it never gets old.

Pitt Stainz Too bad PolyGram had no idea how to properly market these guys back in the day..

Pitt Stainz Am I the only one who thinks Nirvana were shit? Extreme rock. Nuno is a guitar god.

***** Not by a long shot.

***** Of course not. I don't see how they got popular anyway-they didn't have talent,

I love me some Kings X.

You got that right.

Your question on why Nuno tennis court wasn't bigger is answered at about 2:25 What a fucking embarrassment

this is hair metal? far from it, IMO.

I agree, but a lot of people lump Extreme in the "hair metal" category. That's why I put the " ", but yeah, they're not hair metal to me either

This is actually a great compliment. This is why people lock themselves away for a decade practicing.

It's older than I am, and I've probably listened to it 200 times. I still think "III Sides" is their best album, though. "Everything Under the Sun", especially Part One, "Rise n' Shine", is just phenomenally beautiful.

Creo que es porque a pesar de que es una buena banda, es opacada por las demas de esa epoca

+Skidtire Agreed. Saw them live back in the day and it's almost deja vu. Nuno still looks the same. :)

I imagine Gary takes very good care of his voice
