Munis rhythm playing is just off the hook that’s why he’s such a great lead player he can do similar things and they sound different because his phrasing and sense of melody is world class and variable
To see ex's performing together and still getting on is impressive. Very well kept secret. Also the reason that EVH sacked Gary, he didnt like Gary bringing his partners on the road etc. Both NB and GC swing both ways. Dont believe me, the proof is out there.
I only realized relatively recently how good Extreme's harmonies were whilst watching a video of them live from Donnington '94. I was actually there but don't remember much about it.
That "underrated" singing sold their most successful record. It's called More Than Words. Check out the sales of that single and it's massive worldwide success.
Nuno is quite the character. Great sense of witty humor. I think besides the vocal booth he built he must've built a time machine as well. Man, he still looks like he's in his mid 30's. Great episode, Sammy! Won't Get Fooled Again rocked!
Nuno Bettencourt may possibly be the most talented guitarist of that generation. His complexity in extremes songs are pretty unprecedented. Brian May said that he could never play the guitar solo for get the funk out. Awesome interview.
I met Nuno and Gary in 1990 when they were performing in Joplin, MO during the Pornograffiti tour. Such humble and gracious guys. We spent a good 20 minutes just talking about music and bands we grew up with. Brought my Circus magazine that had the tablature for Mutha. Nuno read through it and said it was pretty accurate. Then both he and Gary signed it. That article and a pic of the three of us hangs in my home office to this very day. Can’t wait for the new album to drop!
😭u have made me SO happy! Backing up the people that I feel in my heart r good people. I used to get the new mags. Metal Edge was a fave. I was jealous that Gerry got to meet so many cool guys. I had all the KISS special editions. But outgrew that part. Now I would love to flip through all of the old ones. Even the teen ones. U can find some articles or pics online, but it's not that same.
I went to see Extreme last night at Hampton Beach. Almost 40 years later and they’re still kicking ass! Their skill and energy level is absolutely amazing. 🤙🏼
Such a great band. You always hear great things about Nuno, which is well deserved, but not much about the band. I think they are extremely underrated for their body of work. I hope more people can watch this and discover how great they really are. Sammy is nailing this series with all these great acts.
@@deebop4904 if u were a kid in the 70s when 🍊 Tjc Tacs came out, then yes i would describe them as underrated. It went from those minty green ones that hurt ur stomach to 🍊. They were so good! 2021 Tic Tac gum is good too. It's nostalgic. A candy can't compare to a human being.
Nuno is a vampire from The Lost Boys that escaped from the cave and was not staked in the heart. He does not age, and remains cool as hell. Extreme take us back to the zenith of rock music and are saving our souls from what's happened since the early 90s. Much love from Sydney, Australia.
@@andymcphie3008 I'm married, and no long drool over him. I prefer tall men. Or ones that r comfortable in their own skin. Marc Anthony is small and shorter. But his persona is large. That's why he pulls the ladies, that and he's a good guy with talent. Not all ladies have lovely long legs.
Not only these people are extremely talented but there’s true humility. And their albums (starting from the 2d one) are masterpieces that will get all the deserved recognition in time.
Damn Im like a third through the vid wanting to hear the new riffs and shit. Glad to read they included some. Even spotified just now to see if theres a single released. Nuno looks so much like Phil Sgrosso from As I Lay Dying its unreal
That performance had me smiling the whole time! I grew up on all 3 of these guys and Sammy is such a "uniter". He brings so many people together. And that's what music is all about. Universal united happyness.
This video is brilliant, I started off this morning watching Justin Hawkins doing a video about Extreme’s new song “Rise” which is awesome, then by chance I ended up here, it has made my day. The acoustic rendition of Won’t Get Fooled Again in this video is the best I have ever heard, thank you so much guys.
I had Kid Ego on CD in '91? I have Nuno with other bands and charity events on a playlist. The audio ain't great, but he is. I think his daughter is an actress.
Love watching Nuno play Acoustic in a relaxed session such as this. He is absolutely AMAZING and seemed to really enjoy himself during this take. Great to see Gary and Sammy!
I Cannot wait to get the new Extreme album! I have always loved this band, as well as Nuno's side projects! Gary is such an under-rated singer as well. What a massively badass live band too!!!!! Anxiously waiting boys, let's get it!!!
Absolutely the best, best, very best episode of the series. I’m sure off camera, they warmed their chops up, but that does not guarantee by any means that it goes smoothly. I expected Nuno to be top notch, but vocals are tricky. I’ve heard many famous singers sound horrible when put on the spot, so give those dudes their credit. They were having a blast doing what they love doing, and they sounded great. Hey Sammy, what makes you happy? He answered his own question.
I am from Ashland Massachusetts and have always been a huge fan of Extreme. The first time I watched Extreme perform was in the 80's at THE CHANNEL in Boston Ma. They were EXTREMELY awesome live! Pun intended. I am eagerly awaiting the release of the new album. Thank you for the interview video, and jam Sammy. Also thank God for RUclips. As a kid in the 70's and 80's, one never really had the opportunity to get quality interviews and insights of our favorite bands. Love it!
Great interview. I can’t believe I haven’t found this before now. Sammy Hagar, such a great interviewer and his honesty in trying to find happiness, he asks everyone. 😃 Happiness is jn the now.
I would love to hear more from Nuno and Gary back together on a new album. They were great as Extreme and still have a lot of life to live, the spark is still burning for music.
This video just made me very happy! Sammy Hagar has become a national treasure. Great interviewer and obviously a genuinely lovely cat. Glad these guys are back!
Lol, Sammy getting winded up that flight of stairs 😆..that was great! Gary was right about the magic of music. And Nuno saying about living in the present. These three guys are very inspiring fellows!
So happy to see Nuno and Gary working together again! Blown away by this truly live performance of Don't Fooled again. Real musicians still exist! Jaw dropping harmonies. Sammy always brings a good vibe.
Wow. Nuno is still a fantastic guitarist, and spouting great wisdom as well. And with Gary and Sammy singing, that was an excellent song at the end. I am surprised and impressed! Very cool guys! 😎🙂
@@showcrazy2139 Oh yeah, when I said he is still an excellent guitarist I include the solo on Rise, and the live sit in with The Baby Animals (who were crap but Nuno was still great), and his solo Midnight Express. He's still so fast! On acoustic as well. 🙂
I loved this when I saw it air the first time and it brought a huge smile to my face to see it today after finally hearing the first single from the upcoming album!
One of the things that I have always loved about Nuno (besides his sick tone, technique and writing skills) is that he is both comfortable and a master at playing both electric AND acoustic!! Most guitar virtuosos we know usually concentrate on their electric skills, which is badass of course, but tend to not have that much of acoustic recordings or offerings, which is not the case with Nuno!!! Definitely one of my all time heroes!
SAw the name Vito Brattain….man, talk about under rated guitarists. Everybody Saying Nuno is underrated, true, but really? I mean, everybody knows Nuno. Hes a legend and still going. Ask people about Vito, pretty sure most people just don’t know. Unless you play guitar, or a white lion fan, chances are you never heard of him. Anyways, great musician, and totally underrated.
The only proof we have that Nuno ages, he had to put on some reading glasses :D Love Nuno, one of my biggest inspirations growing up. Also, they all seemed like they were genuinely having a great time, interviews are always better when you can really break down those barriers and get to the heart of it, a couple of dudes talking about what they love. Great watch!
Sammy 74, Gary 61, Nuno 55. These guys have aged very well (understatement for Sammy and Nuno) and so have their voices/ability.
You’ve got that right. Sammy is unreal. I don’t know how he does it, but he still sounds fantastic and has all the energy in the world.
What? If this is 74, 61 and 55, I can’t wait to grow up! 😍
yo something wrong with those numbers
Wait what?!??!?!??!??! 74?????? 61???? That's bloody unreal
Munis rhythm playing is just off the hook that’s why he’s such a great lead player he can do similar things and they sound different because his phrasing and sense of melody is world class and variable
Nuno looks exactly the same he did 30 years ago, amazing
Exactly. How is that possible. He looks 25
Great segment. So cool to see Gary and Sammy singing together. The brilliant Nuno just doesn’t age. It’s obscene!
Not sure why the uploader made no mention of Gary.
@@canadianroot Cause people are truly dumb, don't expect anything more;)
Nuno does look great!
Hagar is 75, by the way
Yup. Nuno looks amazing for 63. ty 4 gr8 vid
IMO Nuno is one of the greatest of all time.
Well, you know what they say about oppinions...
Great player and great tone
Agreed
@@morbidmanmusic Shane's Window Cleaning DIDN'T say that Nuno IS THE... but specifically said "IS ONE OF the"
... Reading-Comprehension matters 😊
@@mandiferrer and morbid didn’t say that, he just said everyone has opinion
This is epic. Two former Van Halen’s lead singers (Sammy Hagar and Gary Cherone) together with an icon of rock guitar, Nuno Bettencourt.
And they could be in a bar and most people would just think they are a few normal guys having a drink.
The two ruined Van Halen!
@@richlovesfnaf4736or did they best but the times were changing
@@richlovesfnaf4736 VH had their best era with Sammy.
@@richlovesfnaf4736 LOL!
I really like Nuno's definition of happiness. That's exactly what it is, savoring the moment.
Carpe diem 🙂
Gary & Nuno look and play with the same vigor they had in 1990… inspiring artists!!
Hand Nuno a brush for hair. Sounded good tho’.

@@leonmohan1708 ive never heard that and even if they are what does that have to do with them as people or rockers?
@@WhatsCookingTime nothing at all. Obviously.
I always find it funny when the host(s) seems more nervous and shy and the guest feels super confident and relaxed.
Nuno is awesome, him and Gary singing together is way, way underrated. Their trio sounded great.
I only realized relatively recently how good Extreme's harmonies were whilst watching a video of them live from Donnington '94. I was actually there but don't remember much about it.
yea and Gary looks rough aint it. is he into crack and heroin?
That "underrated" singing sold their most successful record. It's called More Than Words. Check out the sales of that single and it's massive worldwide success.
It's amazing to watch Sammy interview rock icons like he isn't a rock icon himself.
Nuno nailed it. Being present. That is one of the keys to life.
These 3 guys right here jamming... PURE FUCKING GOLD!!!
Nuno is SUCH a monster!!! This was so much FUN! These guys are all so cool with zero egos...
“To be happy is to be present”…… thanks Nuno!!!
I would pay good money to see these three on stage together!
Nuno is quite the character. Great sense of witty humor. I think besides the vocal booth he built he must've built a time machine as well. Man, he still looks like he's in his mid 30's. Great episode, Sammy! Won't Get Fooled Again rocked!
The lads had a line in the kitchen before the interview 😂
yea and Gary looks like a compost heap
being a 90s kid, I forgot about these guys, Nuno is a pretty charming Cat as usual.
Thanks to Rick Beato for shouting out Nunos epic solo.
this is great. Nuno is so funny. what a cool group of guys.
Nuno Bettencourt may possibly be the most talented guitarist of that generation. His complexity in extremes songs are pretty unprecedented. Brian May said that he could never play the guitar solo for get the funk out. Awesome interview.
Vito Bratta was even better, great as Nuno is.
Looked him up and have more searching to do but highly impressed with some material I’ve heard.
@@23nashman Eddie, Vito & Nuno are among my favorites from back then
I'm a fan of all three. May is a legend, and Nuno and Vito deserved more time in the sun.
The harmonizing was incredible! I love Rock & Roll Road trip with Sammy Hagar! It's a shame it has been cancelled. Go on another road trip, Sammy!
I met Nuno and Gary in 1990 when they were performing in Joplin, MO during the Pornograffiti tour.
Such humble and gracious guys. We spent a good 20 minutes just talking about music and bands we grew up with.
Brought my Circus magazine that had the tablature for Mutha. Nuno read through it and said it was pretty accurate. Then both he and Gary signed it.
That article and a pic of the three of us hangs in my home office to this very day.
Can’t wait for the new album to drop!
😭u have made me SO happy! Backing up the people that I feel in my heart r good people. I used to get the new mags. Metal Edge was a fave. I was jealous that Gerry got to meet so many cool guys. I had all the KISS special editions. But outgrew that part. Now I would love to flip through all of the old ones. Even the teen ones. U can find some articles or pics online, but it's not that same.
Ran into Nuno the other day in a grocery store with my wife. One of the nicest celebrities you could ever meet.
Where do you grocery shop? Just wondering 💜
When you say you ran into him at the grocery store did you mean with a grocery cart or with your car?
Finally!!! Seriously one of the most underrated bands ever and always sick in concert
I went to see Extreme last night at Hampton Beach. Almost 40 years later and they’re still kicking ass! Their skill and energy level is absolutely amazing. 🤙🏼
Nuno makes it look easy... Playing acoustic guitar like that isn't easy... True professionals... Sounds great
Or the piano.
Such a great band. You always hear great things about Nuno, which is well deserved, but not much about the band. I think they are extremely underrated for their body of work. I hope more people can watch this and discover how great they really are. Sammy is nailing this series with all these great acts.
🤘
Extreme, I see what you did there
You probably think tic tacs are UNDERATED

@@JNMKlover Wise words...
Nunos harmonies on vocals are simple amazing
Nuno can play the acoustic better than most can with an electric. Sammy and Gary, awesome as always! Cheers from Canada!
Wow never knew Nuno was so F’n cool! Loved that quote he said about happiness. That is so true!
This is how I imagine heaven, all the greats jamming together all day laughing it up by the pool with a view
Nuno, Sammy and Gary. It doesn't get better than that.
Thanks for being the part of my life's journey…
Long live u guys 🤘
Nuno is the coolest cat to come along in Rock for many decades, and he keeps on rocking. RnR cant die as long as Nuno is still around!
Sammy’s voice is so pure
Nuno is a vampire from The Lost Boys that escaped from the cave and was not staked in the heart. He does not age, and remains cool as hell. Extreme take us back to the zenith of rock music and are saving our souls from what's happened since the early 90s. Much love from Sydney, Australia.
He was the recipient of my drool since More Than Words.

Really happy to see Gary still rockin. Nuno is never going to slow down :)
Not only these people are extremely talented but there’s true humility. And their albums (starting from the 2d one) are masterpieces that will get all the deserved recognition in time.
Best interview yet Sammy - song kicked ass too!!
Damn Im like a third through the vid wanting to hear the new riffs and shit. Glad to read they included some. Even spotified just now to see if theres a single released. Nuno looks so much like Phil Sgrosso from As I Lay Dying its unreal
Sammy is happiness -stay gold buddy. You bring the good times
That was THE best jam of the entire history of the show !!!
Everyone's talking about how Nuno looks so young. Nobody's talking about Sammy Hagar who looks fantastic for someone who's 75!
Love Extreme, had the pleasure of meeting Gary and Nuno, both excellent people!
Beautiful words of wisdom by Nuno.
That performance had me smiling the whole time! I grew up on all 3 of these guys and Sammy is such a "uniter". He brings so many people together. And that's what music is all about. Universal united happyness.
Stunning that Sammy is as old as he is and that "youthful". I'd swear he was 55. They both sound great and Nuno is just inhuman....
And he still can't drive 55!
So glad that Extreme, Gary and Nuno are getting some more flowers from a new generation. They’re so great, thanks Sammy and co!
I think what makes Sammy really happy is making conversation and jammin with his guests!
Anytime Extreme gets live I feel so happy. Such a talented and fun loving group. And Numo is one of my absolute guitar heroes.
Nuno throwin' down some spiritual knowledge - love it 💕☀️
Sammy and Gary sounded great and Nuno's guitar playing was out of this world! Goosebumps, right Sammy?
Possibly the best episode of rock and roll road trip ! 👍
I actually enjoyed that. Like, I caught myself just audibly laughing at the end of the song because of how much genuine fun they were having.
We all need that album now! Nuno Numero Uno!
Sammy's a great interviewer and what a brilliant version of Won't Get Fooled Again, really enjoyed it.
Would love to see these guys do an acoustic show.

They're actually playing 'Rise' to Sammy in this clip. You hear Nuno suggest it as he sits down to the computer.
me too....Justin is my "go to" for any new material...then I check it out
Been listening since the "Kid Ego" days..Gary and Nuno 10/10 musicians.
I had Kid Ego on CD in '91? I have Nuno with other bands and charity events on a playlist. The audio ain't great, but he is. I think his daughter is an actress.
Seeing these 3 guys together is epic
Love watching Nuno play Acoustic in a relaxed session such as this. He is absolutely AMAZING and seemed to really enjoy himself during this take. Great to see Gary and Sammy!
It's amazing the similarities in Sammy's and Gary's singing. That kind of stunned me. Kudos guys. Sounded great.
i never knew Gary joined VH for 2 years! wow.
Yeah, I noticed that too.
@@TomGrubbe yeh. fascinating info friend Tom. go well. ty
That's probably what made Eddie gravitate toward Gary as a singer.

Happiness is jn the now.
That was killer!! Sammy, Gary and Nuno...tearing it up as a trio!! 🎸🤟💯🎵🎶
This is why I love Rock and Roll... All you need is a guitar, some vocals, and you've got a great time!
I would love to hear more from Nuno and Gary back together on a new album. They were great as Extreme and still have a lot of life to live, the spark is still burning for music.
Haha laughed hard at 3:30 when they started taking. And nuno is like “there was a lot of album returns” lol what a badass
This video just made me very happy! Sammy Hagar has become a national treasure. Great interviewer and obviously a genuinely lovely cat. Glad these guys are back!
Wow! Thanks for taking us along, Sammy!
This was just brilliant, Nuno is phenomenal , I smiled through it all, the joy of great musicians loving what they do
Bravo!!!
Nuno is a bad ass musician!
I got goose bumps hearing them jam The Who!! So awesome!!!!
This is Legendary... Sammy, Nuno and Gary
that won't get fooled again jam at the end thing gave me some really badly needed joy today... you guys are f*kin awesome thank you!!
Fan girling all over this! I would love to have a new album with extreme and Sammy together.
Lol, Sammy getting winded up that flight of stairs 😆..that was great!
Gary was right about the magic of music.

Two Halen singers!!!!
Yeah, their “club” is a lot more exclusive than the “lead singers’ club!”
I like the Cherone led VH album. It's got some really good songs, and they kicked ass live. Too bad he didn't get another album.
This new album, is poised to be one of the best of the decade.
Three of my FAVORITE musicians of all time and Nuno - virtuoso. Thanks AXStv and Sammy!
