Right on. Angus has a good sense of humor about it. I heard him once say "It makes me really mad when I hear people say we made 12 albums that all sound exactly the same. We made 13 albums that all sound exactly the same!".
He also said he laughs when people tell him he's the greatest player ever. He said he's not even the best player in his family. (I guess there's a few pickers besides Malcolm)
Every time I see Nuno being interviewed, I have more and more respect for him. He’s one of the most real musicians out there. No BS, no disguises. Fucking love the guy.
Absolutely. He is 100% genuine and his passion for music is what every musician should strive to obtain. But not only him. The entire band are so thankful for their careers and to the fans that have supported them for decades. I'm proud to say I'm one of those fans.
Nuno is shredder, songwriter, historian, preacher, and a kid wanting to rock and roll after making it for decades. He’s an inspiration. How many guitars are dusted off after hearing him play and talk about guitar.
Just wanna say I’m glad Rick doesn’t censor the swearing in these interviews. It’s nice to hear how these guys just naturally speak without an annoying bleep coming in every few seconds.
Nuno is a long lost friend of mine, knew he was destined for greatness when listening to him for the first time in practice in a friends local bands basement, he was still building a guitar while in high school, great times and memories !!
I'm 74 years old and have been listening to rock 'n' roll for sixty years. Until today I'd never heard, or even heard of, this guy, or Extreme, or "More than Words". I am now way more educated than I was yesterday. He talks such perfectly good sense, with such intelligence, self-awareness, respect for others and his art, I am an instant fan.
Well, if you think you would like a tasteful shredder that can be as soulful as any of the greatest, with a music vocabulary second to none, I think you're going to dig Nuno Bettencourt, both his work with Extreme and solo work.
In the '90s, all the girls in my class at school (UK) sat on chairs they'd arranged in a circle and listened in reverential silence to this new song _"More Than Words"_ as though it were some sort of spiritual experience.
Some basic obvious life points voiced by Nuno but delivered with such an enthusiastic,emotional and committed tongue . I am a music junkie ,can’t live without it , when Nuno said “you are a little kid when you are sitting in this studio “,he is spot on .Never let that little man / girl in your head grow up . The power of a song that resonates from any era of your life allows you to be that age again in the heart.OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW BETTER, YOUNG ENOUGH TO DO IT ALL AGAIN.🎸🥁
I had the pleasure many years ago of hanging around Nuno at Logan air port Waiting to get on the plane to the Azores. He is so down to earth and selfless i asked a few questions about how he got to be such a great player... while he was watching the portuguese soccer game . He is a mentor and inspiration to alot of novice guitarists, and also proud of his Heritage . Muito obrigado !
Even though I'm american-brazilian, I almost consider Portugal my 2nd country (and who knows, when my kids move out, it may become my first, eventually). So oddly enough, I feel some portugal pride too, even it's kind of vicarious. FYI, Steve Perry's background is portuguese too.
Agreed. These Poison albums are so much fun. I wish they had better production tho. 2rd and 3rd album do not sound great and no remaster will save them. They sound mushy and flat and that is inexcusable for such a successful band.
When I heard Betancourt's name mentioned with other guitarists I used to wonder who he played for. That's because I heard 'More than Words' and my immediate reaction was: oh, easy listening. And turned it off. I think that's why he gets the question of whether or not that song was a curse.
I sang More than Words to my wife on our weddingday 32 years ago. We’re still together and I still sing it on my gigs from time to time (71 yrs old now). Of course I can not be compared to Nuno, but what I share with him is the love of music. That’s why I still go out there and play.
I just have to add this about Angus ... for any technically minded Guitarists out there, have a crack at Angus's solos on the Live versions of "Whole Lotta Rosie" and "The Jack" (from "If You Want Blood") Angus Young is a _HELL_ of a Guitar player and has written some of the greatest Guitar solos in the Classic Rock genre (Back In Black, Hells Bells, For Those About To Rock, Shot Down In Flames et al) as well as having one of the finest vibratos of any Rock Guitarist - it's up there with Paul Kossoff's vibrato, for me anyway!
Nuno is right. I bought the album for More Than Words and loved the range, creativity and kick ass rock from Exteme’s entire catalog from then on! Great Band! And Nuno is right! CC has some of the most MEMORABLE riffs of some of the 80’s most iconic songs (IMO). It was about a feeling
This guy right here. I have to appreciate the true passion behind all of this. Nuno is a real gentleman and a wizard on the axe. Totally respect his words, after all they are Only Words. :)
I love Nuno but the guy can hardly put a sentence together without swearing 5 times and has limited vocabulary. He looks like he's on cocaïne as well ... He's great at many things, nevertheless articulating thoughts and ideas into sentences i.e. communicating isn't one of them.
@@Laucian7 You might want to consider reviewing the sentence structure & punctuation of your own post before you start lecturing other people on their ability to communicate clearly.
This was definitely one of the top 3 interviews you did in my opinion. Nuno is just REAL. I love how passionate and genuine he is. What a fucking legend!
Man I love Nuno’s energy and positivity. I don’t think I’ve ever heard a musician appreciate their most popular song because it made their lives better. You often hear stories of artists scorn their most popular song because they feel like they’re above that.
When Nuno gets so worked up that he says, "Oh my golly" ( 5:15 ), I wanted to stand up and applaud. What a nice guy: and laying down an "oh my golly" alongside a genuine, free-range facepalm? That's the epitome of uninhibited confidence, the quintessence of cool.
Dude looks like a rock star, but talks like a mensch. These long-form interviews bring out the human being behind the facade. Much appreciated for the real content!
It's rare that the majority of mankind gets to know the actual *artist*. Instead, they know (or might not know) the ART. And one isn't necessarily an exact Reflection of the other. Even with myself... I am NOT my characters nor am I solely "the guy doing tutorials and fun stuff" in my videos. Even my interviews are merely shades of me, not 100% of my outlook on life, art, the universe, humanity, etc. 🐲✨🐲✨🐲✨
I always thought CC DeVille was great. The rhythms of the songs were easy but also a lot of fun. His solo's also fun, full of energy, and you can sing along with them. CC DeVille is a great guitar player.
My first concert was Poison, and Warrant opened for them. It was the first "greatest day of my life" feeling and I'll never forget it. It was a hell of a good time because Poison was up on stage having a hell of a good time and I got to join in for those two hours. CC was a riot. He was dynamic, frenetic, ran around the stage like crazy, climbed the scaffolding... every time you looked for him he popped up somewhere else. As a teenager I was blown away. Poison was "good time" music and they were fantastic at it. There's a reason they are one of the top grossing bands of all time. If you can't be happy at a Poison show, you're just a miserable wreck of a human.
That is an exceptionally well-written song. It displays I think the passion you were talking about. I also believe you aren't moved by opinions of your art
More than Words is one of the best songs ever written, never gets old, absolutely timeless. Perfect Melody, perfect chord selection and progression, perfect cadence, absolutely amazing! Nuno you are the real deal brother, heart of a lion and the innocence of a lamb.
I’m very happy to hear Nuno express these feelings now, and can feel pride about the music he created that brought joy to so many. There was a time post Extreme he had a different sentiment and all but disappeared publicly. THEY will always shit on the things liked by others. The more liked and loved, the more they disdain. That’s about them, not about the art.
Wise guy Nuno - been really cool to watch your growth over the decades! He has gratitude for the girfts in life he received - he never does the, "Extreme should have been bigger!" He knows their work has great value & any opportunity is something to be grateful for. Hence, he's still a passionate great guy!
@@hegemonycricket2182 “I’ve known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy,” Trump told New York Magazine “He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it - Jeffrey enjoys his social life.” I guess if you think p3dos are awesome. wake up man he’s a grifter who plays on your emotions so you will send him money. put your personal bias aside and look at the facts
Man, I am so happy I tuned in to watch this video. Nuno was a huge inspiration as a kid growing up wanting to play music. Yeah - he's even better than I thought.
More than words is what brought me awareness of Extreme back when it was released, and I have been a total fan of all there albums and many of their songs ever since. Great musicianship, awesome creativity, combined with a unique style are all that I love about those guys. I only wish I could catch a live performance somewhen, but where I live in the woods of interior Alaska that’s not a likely occurrence anytime soon.
Maybe splitting hairs but I think he has a very healthy ego that’s unselfish. He clearly appreciates other great artists while believing in the value of what he offers.
It has been my experience that there are two things ìn life that you cannot fake - `passion and `genuine`(because people see through it in a heartbeat). Nuno is both passionate and genuine.
I'm not familiar with his guitar work, but would would gladly listen to him talk about music. Any music. For multiple hours. In fact, I watched the entirety of the original interview two times. It's like he says - it's all about passion. When somebody is THIS passionate about something people are drawn to it, it's irresistible
I have long been a fan of Nuno's music, but this is actually the first time I've heard him speak. What a fascinating and engaging personality. Rick didn't have to say a word in that interview. That was awesome!
From all the guitar players I’ve known of throughout my life, I never thought I’d find a kindred spirit in Nuno. He’s absolutely amazing, such an incredible mind.
I played my "III Sides to Every Story" cassette till it broke when I was a teenager in the 90's, glad I can keep Extreme in my regular playlist now and never have to worry about that happening again.
Can I say that this and the first channel are "one" of the best music channels on YT? And you Rick, you really seem a good genuine person. I would love to be your friend and to have some conversations, aside from the musical aspect of it.
I'm not a huge fan of Nuno's music (I do appreciate his talent but a lot of his music is not my cup of tea) but the full interview made me a huge fan of Nuno the human being.
He spends the entire interview saying we have to quit making this the olympics. So basically this isn’t a competition and yet at the very end says he did that solo because he wants to take him down 😂😂😂😂
Knew who Nuno was never heard him interviewed before.He is very passionate about music.Agree with him about Paul McCartney.Amazing that Paul is touring!Ringo has a new album out!Love that.Nuno is so talented and so honest. 1:00
Nuno: It's not the Olympics! It's not a competition! Also Nuno: I want to whip your ass as a guitarist against whom I feel I am competing, and if I weren't doing that, then I'd be a loser!
Right on. Angus has a good sense of humor about it. I heard him once say "It makes me really mad when I hear people say we made 12 albums that all sound exactly the same. We made 13 albums that all sound exactly the same!".
He also said he laughs when people tell him he's the greatest player ever. He said he's not even the best player in his family. (I guess there's a few pickers besides Malcolm)

@@realscience948 Troll? Whether you personally like him or not, saying he has lackluster guitar abilities is just ridiculous.

Wow, what a kind thing he said about the quick lessons. Happy to see someone with a good heart.
“You’re never done learning” that is the best message in this clip. Once you think you know it all it’s a downward spiral from that point forward.

Hell!!! I love this guy. He's so tangential, hes bouncing when he's in discussion and he bounces when he plays. So spontaneous!!!
Truth speaker✌️
Thank you guys so much! Keep going as long as you can keep up.
He spends the entire interview saying we have to quit making this the olympics. So basically this isn’t a competition and yet at the very end says he did that solo because he wants to take him down 😂😂😂😂
Yeah I thought that too
Yup. Weird
He did a subconscious u turn
How good it is that I saw this video, loved it and here I got to see Nuno with Extreme in India two days back! Came back again to see this again!
He is high AF. 👍
Nuno is a treasure. Love his music, he's an amazing guitar player and beautiful soul.
Switched off at 0:30 and went to listen to AC/DC🤪
Better than this lame ass 👍🏻
You both missed the point... it was a compliment!
They are praising AC/DC and indirectly calling them geniuses. You didn't listen to the point Nuno was making.
Exactly!
@@camannwordsmithjesus christ did he hurt your feelings? he literally praised them 2 seconds later 🤦♂️ nuno might just know what he’s talking about
Aaaaaah, it just gives me good feelings and I was simply like nodding 6 minutes long. Thx Rick and luff ya Nuno
He makes a good point.
Knew who Nuno was never heard him interviewed before.He is very passionate about music.Agree with him about Paul McCartney.Amazing that Paul is touring!Ringo has a new album out!Love that.Nuno is so talented and so honest. 1:00
Nuno: It's not the Olympics! It's not a competition!
Also Nuno: I want to whip your ass as a guitarist against whom I feel I am competing, and if I weren't doing that, then I'd be a loser!
