Members Grrrip Posted September 23, 2011 Members Share Posted September 23, 2011 Wow the sound is terrible, but I think he's just rusty. I bet he could play like the Ozzy/Badlands days if he really wanted to. Always was proud of him not just for the playing, but he's like me, Japanese/Caucasian. Hapa Haoles, Auryte.

Members guitup too Posted September 23, 2011 Members Share Posted September 23, 2011 ^ I agree and I think there's alot of haters on here and in the world in general. It doesn't matter if it's Jake E. Lee, Eddie Van Halen, or .....(insert name of famous or once famous guitar player here). Every time a video is posted of of one of these guys that is no longer on top of the world, all the internet know-it-all's slaughter them. The truth is guys like Jake E. Lee have done what all the haters wish they could do. Play guitar for a living. It doesn't last forever for hardly anyone. Most players/bands that make it only get a few years on top if that. The thing to remember is these guys are just regular people in the end that live the rest of there lives after the limelight. Whatever all the never was's, including myself , think of them they made it at some point and 99.999999% of the haters never have and never will.

Members Spaced Out Ace Posted September 23, 2011 Members Share Posted September 23, 2011 Who the hell would sell all their gear and waste all their money drugs? Surely you'd like something to actually show for it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sheik_Yerbouti Posted September 23, 2011 Members Share Posted September 23, 2011 Jake's best {censored} was with Badlands, IMO. That band was just epic {censored}ing win for three {censored}ing GREAT records until egos tore it apart and Ray died from AIDS. Ray is my all-time favorite singer, even above Dio. I at least got to see them once headlining on the Voodoo Highway tour and got to meet them afterwards. They were an AMAZING band with incredible songs, HUGE riffs, and Ray's equal parts angelic and demonic howl. {censored} I miss that band! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We play two of theirs in our set (Dreams in the Dark and Winter's Call). Nobody really knows them, and we generall get a tepid response, but {censored} it, I love to play them. As far as this vid goes.... Don't do meth, kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members akapuli Posted September 23, 2011 Members Share Posted September 23, 2011 I don't understand the complaints, it was a solid performance. He's good and if you know the iPhone sound recording characteristics, you bet his sound was good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members paul6string Posted September 23, 2011 Members Share Posted September 23, 2011 Voodoo Highway kills as well. Fantastick hard rocking with dirty blues mixed in for winsauce -- this is from the debut CD after he left Ozzy and formed Badlands around 1989, the CD is a MONSTER CD! They have 1 CD of basic 'outakes' (Dusk) and that kicks ass as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members rugbyguitargod Posted September 23, 2011 Members Share Posted September 23, 2011 that {censored} was depressing to watch; he's one of my icons... one of the first legitimately badass guitar players i ever listened to when i was a little kid...

Members shredhead7 Posted September 23, 2011 Members Share Posted September 23, 2011 why would you bother using an exotic tuning for a {censored}ing song like that? The song was originally written in A, but Oz felt more comfortable in B. They transposed the song up two steps, but that meant that the pedal tone rhythm would now require a 6 fret stretch to play the chords and the pedal tone (now a B). To compensate, Jake tuned the A and E strings up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
