This is a short little video but I cracked up when I watched it.

YouTube - Dokken Commercial

MacMan · 10-20-2009, 07:41 AM

I don't know how to put up the you tube videos on here but I had a mate over yesterday and we were reminiscing about growing up with all these bands and we watched Warrants Uncle Tom's Cabin, that is imho probably their best song.

I also agree! It was a really good song, with good acoustic guitar parts and a heavy riff. Great stuff!

MacMan · 10-20-2009, 07:12 PM

I'm going to have to try and find the album in a second hand shop somewhere. Even get some Cinderella as well

80's Rocker · 10-20-2009, 08:22 PM

I have been listening to alot of Cinderella today actually lol!

80's Rocker · 10-20-2009, 08:24 PM

Oh and btw, I love the pre glam metal kind of pics up at the top. There were some really songs to be heard from that type of genre.

I laughed so hard when I saw that first pic of Paul

MacMan · 10-20-2009, 09:08 PM

I'm just done watching every Cinderella vid on you tub, it is so easy to forget just how great they were.

That pic of Paul Stanley is proof that Kiss has done him a world of good lol

Also did you check out the Ovation Breadwinner Ace is playing...? Before he had any money for a Les Paul.

Another Paul Stanley pic...

And does anyone remember "The Tubes"....?

MartyStrat54 · 10-31-2009, 04:46 PM

I ran stage monitors for the Tubes. This was in Phoenix and of course the guys were much older, but yes I did have my music moment with the Tubes.

HOT TUBES 70 · 11-02-2009, 08:49 AM

didn't steve lukather write songs for those guys at one time , i think i read that somewhere ?

80's Rocker · 11-02-2009, 10:41 PM

I have been listening to a crap load of RATT recently. They are like my favorite band now and Warren is a guitar god. Round and Round gets me every time I listen to it and since there is no realy tab for it I have been learing it by ear and watching other people play it. I also watched RATT-behind the music on youtube which was really good but sad in alot of ways especially with Robin. Lets hear it for RATT!

YouTube - Ratt-Round and Round (Official Music Video)

YouTube - Ratt-I Want A Woman

YouTube - Ratt-You're In Love (Official Music Video)

MartyStrat54 · 11-07-2009, 08:53 PM

Thought I'd crawl in here and say, "It's all good." Ah the 80's, my favorite decade. I was a bad boy back then.

Anyway, some of the best music ever and some nice guitars as well.

LOVE THE 80's!!!

80's Rocker · 11-07-2009, 10:11 PM

I know who we have not talked about yet here...The Vinnie Vincet Invsion and W.A.S.P., there is also Helix, Pretty Boy Floyd and Y&T!

I have been listening to alot of Invasion stuff lately and I have really been enjoying it. Some of my fav's are Heavy Pettin, Boyz Are Gona Rock, Let Freedom Rock, and Wild Child.

And sorry guys that I havent been as active here but I have been spending most of my time either playing the guitar and when I am on a forum its My Les Paul (link is at bottom of screen) of the Vintage Kramer forum discussing the new Kramer guitars and the new Kramer website.

(although I dont care for the new ones much except for the pacer classic.)

carnada · 11-10-2009, 09:53 PM

Are you guys ready for the best glam metal riffs ever?

YouTube - Kick Axe On The Road To Rock

MartyStrat54 · 11-10-2009, 11:04 PM

?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ??????????????????????????

80's Rocker · 11-10-2009, 11:09 PM

I really liked that song.

MartyStrat54 · 11-10-2009, 11:27 PM

Okay, I have to be honest here, or I wouldn't be Marty. Good tune? Yes. Nice, tight vocals? Yes. Guitar solo? Good, but I've heard way better than this. The solo was basically built around four scale riffs. The guy plays really clean, I'm just saying that I have heard much more difficult solo's than that from 80's glam bands.

Sorry...that's just how I feel.

80's Rocker · 11-10-2009, 11:29 PM

Well thats true, but I dont think music is about being difficult to play, it is about sounding good. Stairway to Heaven solo is really easy to play but it is rated the #1 solo of all time, and there are plenty of harder solos that dont sound even half as good.

Although I do see what you mean and where you are coming from as it was cool to make 80's stuff as complicated and technical as possible with all the funny sounds you can add in to it.

MartyStrat54 · 11-10-2009, 11:43 PM

Well, I am not trying to be an ass, but I based my decision on this:

"Are you guys ready for the best glam metal riffs ever?"

Would you say that was the best 80's glam metal riffs you ever heard?

I've heard a shitload of 80's riffs and some guys were just plain good and fast.

Again, not trying to cause a stir here. I'm just stating my opinion.

80's Rocker · 11-10-2009, 11:57 PM

Oh well no lol its far from the best but it is still good stuff. If you want fast then

YouTube - Nitro- Freight Train (Music Video)

is the only way to go lol NITRO. Still maybe not "the best" but that is too big a title to really put on anything, I want to see a faster 80's guitarist if you find or know of one.

MartyStrat54 · 11-11-2009, 12:53 AM

NYT

Now you're talking. Hey, we went through Nitro a while back and it was good. Yeah, this is one band that I didn't get to see live. Oh well. Their videos still kick some hardcore ass. Freight Train...aWoo-Woo.

Hey, did you hear the rumor that Steven Tyler is going to be kicked out of Areosmith? Apparently he fell (hard) off the wagon and is snockered. I heard it on the KC rock radio this afternoon. They are looking for his replacement.

custom53 · 11-11-2009, 08:28 AM

I think the line is getting blurred between "Glam" bands ('70s, Cooper, Bowie, the Dolls, Sweet, etc) and "Hair" bands ('80s, Dokken, Whitesnake, Motley Crue, Ratt, etc).... Don't get me wrong, I love both...! And I think the "Hair" bands had more intensive guitar riffs/solos...

Kiss is one of the few groups who transcended through both eras...

I heard this too. I really hope that he decides to stay and they don't find a new singer. I just dont think anybody can replace him and it would still be good.

Well in this thread, I can agree with you, BUT like you, most of us here (like me) are a huge fan of both genres and because glam influenced the hair so much and they are both such great music, we just talk about both!
