Zakk been my #1 fav guitarist for 20 years now. I remember seeing him live on Ozzfest with his band Black Label Society AND he was Ozzy's guitarist for years, too. He the badassiest of them all. Yes there's guys with better technique perhaps, but Zakk has a nasty grimy badass style to him that destroy people around him. Fun facts - in the Rock Band World Tour game (the one that added drums and mic and bass to the guitar), you Unlock Zakk as a bandmate towards the end of the tour and his avatar joins and plays with you. So cool. I remember watching American Idol many years ago with my wife- the year James Durbin was on, he came out and did a rock song (don't remember which), and Zakk came out on stage with him, and I nearly fell out of my chair "WTF? THAT ZAKK WYLDE!! LIKE REALLY ZAKK". I remember I sounded like a little kid, but I was so shocked and excited and had no idea.

After Randy Rhoads and his follow up, Jake E. Lee, Zakk took over in Ozzy Osbourne’s band. An east coast guitar player, he joined at 19 years old from New Jersey. I saw him play downtown here in Manhattan with his side group, Pride and Glory, in the early ‘90s. His chicken-picking style always set him apart from the rest of the guitarists of that period. And don’t forget the singing, as well. I always thought that Randy Rhoads and Jake were better players, but Zakk did an excellent job next to them. Dimebag Darrell (the great) was his partner-in-crime back then. Big shout to the phenomenal Gus G. for playing excellent guitar with Ozzy, too!! RIP. Great choice, Asia and BJ!!

@@carmelaruck7116 I said I think that Randy Rhoads and Jake E. Lee we’re better guitarists because “I” have always thought they were better technical players with an exceptional amount of talent. Zakk plays well, but the majority of his lead playing is based on major or minor scales that are basic. He plays his solos with five notes as opposed to seven. Even he says that Randy was a better player than him. So, does Ozzy. But, Zakk has done an incredible job since he’s been the group. Again, I don’t think he’s in Randy or Jake’s class, though. Other people can feel however they’d like.

@stevedahlberg86802 жыл бұрын
I've been following him for a while and I love his stuff. The man can shred. It's interesting here how he gives this cover the Jimi Hendrix treatment only it's like Jimi Hendrix on steroids plus some fusion jazz thrown in. And Zach can certainly tear up Jimi Hendrix like nobody's business that's for sure. But he chooses to use that wah pedal instead of a slide which even reinforces that more. BUT ... this was more or less a beloved iconic old early 70s hard rock song that he just used as a vehicle to showcase his mind-blowing ability. And I think it is also a loving tribute, honestly. And I love how present the piano is and the interplay with the cowbell. If there was one thing I ever lamented about the original it's that I wish that the honky tonk piano had been a bit more in the mix. Still, I can't remember if you guys have covered the original by Mountain? But if not, even if you don't react to it, you totally owe it to yourself to see why he would pay tribute to this legendary song. I have heard many fine covers of it but to this day, I have never ever heard one that packs the same wall of just raw power and character. They always end up sounding a bit anemic in comparison. I think it's just impossible to duplicate. Here it is. It is way way way too short at around 2 minutes long. And if you can catch all the lyrics, it's got a lot of specific references to look how like down around Vicksburg, and so forth, but it's actually a hilarious song. He manages to snag the highly sought-after Cajun Mississippi Queen and he's loving it but then he finds himself working his ass off to buy her all the things she needs to keep herself looking pretty and be a queen, 😃 m.kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jMiAZ9SXnbbOln0.html
