- Опубликовано: 10 июн 2021
- 30 years ago today the album Slave to the Grind became the very first heavy metal album in history to debut at number one on the billboard album chart. My Father was commissioned by Atlantic Records to create and paint the cover for the album which I have had on my wall for 30 years now. Here's a video unboxing the latest vinyl release of Slave to the Grind which came out last Record Store Day in 2020. Maybe one day we can come together as a band and give the fans what they deserve which is a proper release from the master original tapes. Until that time see if you can find an original pressing of the record but they are not easy to find. How ironic is it that Michael Wagener the producer of Slave to the Grind announces his retirement the same year some complete strangers take over our record and do whatever they want without any of our say or knowledge. Oh well that's showbiz I guess. Anyways get ready for the Slave to the Grind 30th Anniversary Tour starting this October in the United States! Details TBA get ready to rock mother Truckers!!!

There's no Skid Row without Sebastian Bach!
Ummmm....yes there is.......
@@22trem Really? Tell me about their great songs without Sebastian.
Jeferson Berlinck thick skin, lie and other garbage.......
Skid Row should give people what they want and do an amazingly succesfull tour with Sebastian Bach, just like Guns 'N Roses did
@@LuisLondonG Not worth the hassle for Snake, Scotti and Rachel....
Kids take note, this is a real singer. Doesn't need autotune or effects. Just raw unbridled talent
❤ Yes, he is! The best vocal I've heard in my life 3:54 🧬
@@LanaLovesAnimals "Best vocal heard in my life" you've obviously not heard many others then, he was good really good in his day but Axl, Jon to name just 2 others, their voices for the high pitch's are now not there either. But there are all in their 60s or dam near it so years of high pitch screaming takes it's toll. But yes Seb like Axl etc in the day were bloody brilliant and unmatched but as i say, age etc takes it's toll.
Heard him sing lately? LOL
@bobabooey4537 Pretty crap if live but again like many, can't get the high notes but as I've many many times..
Your vocals on Wasted Time are gut-wrenching, brother. A real masterpiece.
I totally agree I've never heard anyone sing with as much passion as Sebastian.This album is definitely Skid Rows best but I love everything they did including Subhuman Race which is very underrated.I can't wait to hear the next solo record.Angel Down and Give em Hell are my favorite solo albums by Sebastian.Slave to the Grind is the album Ive listened to the most in my entire life.The title track is fucking amazing and a personal anthem for me. It always gets me pumped up. I can't give the 1991 album enough praise.Its been there for me like no other.
Totally agree. What can ya say about Sebastians vocals? ... too epic for words.
I still get goosebumps every time I hear that track. Just pure singing excellence!
One of the best songs I’ve ever heard honestly
Wasted time,Quicksand Jesus,In A Darkened Room are the best songs of this masterpiece album!! Thanks to Jesus for the birth of this wonderful and nice singer! 🙏🙏 Thanks Sebastian,thank you for being at world!😊😊🤟🤟
I'm from Peterborough Ontario and knew Sebastians brother when I was a teenager. At the time I also knew their father David and had the pleasure of seeing his art studio. One afternoon I went to his studio and saw what became the Slave To Grind Album cover he was working on which now hangs in Sebastian's house. As a side note many local people from around town were used in the artwork including his brother who is the individual in the window. Meeting Sebastian at that time at his moms house was the biggest thing that had happened to me up to that point in my life. Unbelievable it was 30 years ago.
That scream is one of the best screams in rock 'n roll!!!! I always get pumped listening to it.
I was a big fan as a kid and don't listen to them much now, but damn... every time I hear that voice, it's electrifying. There's almost nothing that can touch it in rock.
And that will be forever. Breaking that scream challenge is going to take some serious talent.
This record blew my mind and your vocals literally took me into a world of amazement from beginning to end.
Indeed nothing like it!🤘
remember buying it on cassette then wearing it out, classic album beginning to end! 🤘
Hes definitely lost that voice
THANK YOU FROM THE SINGER
Isso é bom ou ruim ?????
To watch him put glasses on and his grey hair makes me feel so damn old! He was a bada** back in our day.
Sebastian is still BADASS!
He still is... Kicking and screaming!!🤘❤️🇨🇦
@@thadfoote8653 I agree. I didn't mean to make it sound like he's no good anymore, I was remenicing from my younger days when Skid Row was one of the most popular bands around.
@@davidmcglone409 COOL,Same here im 51 so raised in same era!
He still is he is just aging like we are lol. I am still a badass. Girls 20 younger look at me like meat.
It's not just a metal album Sebastian it's a Masterpiece. 30 yrs later and It's timeless. Thank you!
In a Darkened Room is probably the most underrated Skid Row song there is, this entire album is just a masterpiece of great rock!
I agree 100
Great song but it's Chain Gang.
I remember you, in a darkened room, two totally different albums, both are bad ass
I agree...I also think Quicksand Jesus is underrated..such a deep and emotional song.
Ditto
Very cool that your father painted the cover!
"Quot;The Snake & Quot; Sabo" just shows how much love & effort was put into this release.
when the preview looks good, then you print 4000.
That's absolutely crazy that they would let that slip. So unprofessional!!!
I was 14 years old when this album came out. I remember being so excited to get it the day it came out. Awesome album.
Me too! I was 15 in 1991. Remember that day vividly.
Wow, your Father was an outstanding artist! So touching that you hold his memory dear to you! Jesus bless you Sebastian🕇❣❣❣❣❣🎸🎸
This is vocal no guitar😂
@@Liroxofficial
What do you mean??????🎸🎤
I can't believe he has to celebrate this alone, without the band (even though the band still exists). Well, just know that we all love you Baz, and us fans are always with you
No kidding. I’m 31, so I didn’t grow up listening to Skid Row. I had to discover them on my own when my Dad would listen. I read his book last month and loved it.
Hearing about the rest of the band and how they refuse to bury the hatchet and get together comes off extremely immature. They are all grown adults. Get together and talk, and celebrate together. Sebastian is better off without friends like that. They basically casted him off and it feels like they think they are better than him, which is hilarious.
@@Autumn_Sunrise It's an amazing book.
@@PowerslaveWarrior The book was so good! It was filled with interesting stories and it really painted a picture of life during the 70s and 80s. I understand that Sebastian wasn’t easy to deal with back then, but he was young and living a crazy lifestyle. They are all adults now, so it’s weird to me that the rest of the band is still refusing to get together with him.
@@Autumn_Sunrise I agree, the fans really want to see it happening. I'm sure they could make it work, even for a limited period of time.
@@Autumn_Sunrise there are three sides to every story.
The first 2 Skid Row albums rule! They have a distinct Metal sound. I was hooked immediately!
Fuck yeah they were the shit
You meant first 3, right?
Glam metal.
Quicksand Jesus is beyond epic, but the entire album is a masterpiece.
🎯
I love Quicksand Jesus so much. Absolutely epic.
Quckksand Jesus is one of rocks greatest ballads
Looks like a bunch of guys trying to make money from your amazing vocals because they haven't made
a dime since you left. We are all very lucky to have experienced Skid Row with you at the helm.
Things will never be the same without you. Nor will they ever be duplicated. Peace to you and your family.
Your talent will be a part of history as long as your fans keep it alive. I know I will.
why aren't the other band members there do u know
Maybe they know nothing much about it either with the name errors etc.Queenryche had no say at all in the latest Mindcrime vinyl reissue.
You are right on the money. Great post. 👏👏👏👏👏🤘🤘
@@verucasalt6231 BTW awesome name loved the movie and the band
Word is the singer was hard to work with
Blows my mind that records get released with no conversation with the artists involved.
Agreed. This could have been so much better than this brickwalled mess of sound quality. And the typos....even a bootlegger would have got that correct....I can't consider this as an official release.
To be fair, the other 4 members may have been involved. Bummer Baz wasn't as he clearly pays attention to the details.... Great review. Thanks, Sebastian!
@Vince Ellis no self respecting metal band or fan was a republican. It was all about freedom. If you grew up to be one, thats on you. Let heavy metal be what it was, go watch Fox News and stock up on canned goods. The rest of us will be just fine.
Ditto!
Not cool. They should at least try to get the band mates input beforehand. That is like an author having their book reissued and storylines changed without their consent. Unfortunately, some publishers of books do reissues without the author's input. Some publishers are respectful though to the author and original work.
Best album ever!!! Growing up in the era of cassette tapes, this one didn't leave my cassette deck in my car for over a year, maybe two!! Rock ON BAZ!!
Classic. Skid Row is not Skid Row with you. You are one of a kind sir. God bless you and your family.
I remember like it was today, I was 17 years old.
I saved the money on bus tickets by walking home from school to buy "Slave to the Grind". I remember my kid reaction when I heard the weight of this album. I love "Monkey Business" and the title track is awesome... Thank you so much for making my teenage years more fun.
I live in Rio de Janeiro Brazil.
I went to the Hollywood Rock show at Praça da Apoteose, the main attraction was Skid Row and Extreme opened. It was fantastic.
Sebastian, I'm so sorry you have to celebrate this without the others. I can tell you as a fan from the beginning... YOU WERE and ALWAYS will be SKID ROW to me. I have not even listened to them since you left the Band. But, I have ALWAYS listened to you and I play your fantastic solo music everyday, as I am fortunate to have a job that lets me play music for 8 hours! And its true! EVERYDAY! I need my Sebastian fix! ❤ Congratulations on all of your accomplishments in life. You are truly a multi-talented Man and a fantastic performer. I was fortunate enough to see you back in the day with Bon Jovi and I hope to hear and see you again in the future. Many Blessings to you and your beautiful Wife and Family.❤❤ Also! Your Father's Artwork is absolutely stunning! I'm no expert, but I think it absolutely is Museum quality..❤
I want to Specially appreciate you for being a big fan. Thanks for your nice comment on my post, it means a lot to me. I want you to send me a direct message via hangouts using my personal email or you can as well add me up on WhatsApp through my mobile number that will be indicated below.

Wow...bon jovi AND skid row! Nice!! Why did sebastian leave skid row and it says oct. 2021 tour? Is there a tour with original slid row starting In oct. 2021? I NEED to see them WITH sebastian!
@@JesusChrist_IsTruth-LoveForALL I also think I heard of an up coming tour.Idk who would go without SB singing I wouldn't.
@@brookehornback1896 yea I looked it up and theres one in oct. 2021 in Reno with Skid Row and warrant. Sadly both original singers wont be in it, Jani of warrant of course has passed now. But I'm not going without Sebastian. 😖
I hear the difference Sebastian! Your voice overpowered the whole masterpiece. You will always be the reason Skid Row was known. You stand alone and STILL shine brighter!!!! 🤩 You're new album is great, hugs from Florida sweet brother!
In a darkened room...sick vocals...love you Sebastian thank you for making my 25th birthday extra special Tampa Florida 88
Thanks for sharing. Love going back to 91’ … 🤘 The original sounds better for sure. It has the feel. ✌️
Wow Sebastian is really looking his age and then he pulls out his reading glasses and I have never felt so old .......But hey even when he talks you can still hear that magical voice
Letting yourself go? Can happen at any age... I think SB was a very talented young singer but as an individual based on every bit if footage ive seen the guy is not cutout for the publics focus... its actually a little awkward... respect to an artist
Bach,,, you're still our hero, I'm 45 now but sometimes I remember when I bought your tape in 95, miss you ~~~ Glad to see you.
Damn, I remember my metal buds and I running to our local shop to grab this on cassette the day it was released! I think we were all around 15 years old then. Seems like yesterday, but 30 years?! Wow... Still one of the best metal/hard rock albums of all time!
'Monkey Business' is the song that when I first heard it makes me want to jump and scream in rage when hear you screaming after the guitar intro.
Well, Sebastian, I have to say that watching this has been emotional for me too. You, and Skid Row, helped me survive High School and some pretty intense traumas throughout my life. Your debut album came out at the beginning of my first year of High School and it was hands down my favourite record ever until 'Slave To The Grind' came out!!
Watching you play the original LP took me straight back to the day the album first came out. I picked it up from the record store straight after school and listened to it as soon as I got home through massive old school headphones and I cranked the volume up to the sweet spot just before it becomes painful. I'm not going to lie, I have loved a great many records over the years, but to this day my first listen to 'Slave' has never been matched. The intro to 'Monkey Business ' still sends chills down my spine. I can only say it was mind blowing transcendental ecstasy. We have never met, Sebastian, but you, and the band, gave me one of the happiest moments of my life. So, Thank You!
Slave To The Grind is simply a masterpiece. I wish more people recognised this and gave you respect for your incredible talent. You seem to be such a down to earth guy and I am saddened that the rest of the band can't respect what you ALL created together and let bygones be bygones. As a fan I just don't understand it, because it leaves the door open for vultures to feed off your legacy with album rereleases that literally diminish the music you made. Surely you, the members of Skid Row (the REAL members) should determine the product that bears your names and control your legacy?
What a crazy world we live in! Skid Row, no bullshit, were the best band in the world and deserved to have longevity like Metallica.
Anyway, Sebastian, as ABBA sang 'Thank you for the Music and for giving it to me!' Those albums are always going to be with me, and even though I was always more of a Youth Gone Mild, your voice has always helped me survive the worst times in my life and brought joy to the kinder times. I hope the future brings you the recognition your art deserves and the happiness in life that you deserve. 🤘🤘
I see in the comments, some say this song is the best and that song is great. Let me just say that this album has no bad or boring song in it. A five star album. You don't know good rock music if you haven't listened to this yet. Bach is the freaking Chuck Norris of rock and roll.
That's a fantastic album, I remember growing up to that, now I'm 47, still love it. Good on ya..
It's a shame that he's there by himself on the 30th anniversary one of the all-time coolest metal records of the 90s I have the original version with get the fuck out myself.
For sure......Though, that's more than likely just an illusion. He certainly doesn't have to be alone. Suzanne Le Bach is probably right in the next room, or filming this, I would imagine...Unless she's away on a business trip, or something... ...Anywayz, yeah....a guy like dat certainly doesn't have to remain alone....I can't say the same for the rest of them....Who knows?...
Was there a falling out with the other members because hes a very likable person
@@goldentrowel1968 he had a row with Rachel at a news eve gig if I remember
@@davidtarbuck4166 Thanks for your reply
Very cool Mike!!
You have made generations of young people dream... you are a living legend.
This tour with Pantera opening up COMPLETLEY blew me away in Philadelphia! To this day best show I have ever been to. I thought it was ballsy taking Pantera out as openers and they were amazing, but when Skid Row took the stage- BEST SHOW EVER!!! Thanks for the great memory
Love you, Baz! Slave to the Grind has some of the most incredible vocals ever recorded. You are a Legend! ❤ from Germany
Pro tools takes all the feeling out and makes every thing so perfect it sounds bad. You can't fake the warmth and headroom that analog brings. What a great record! Still have my 91 copy and listen to it often. Thanks Baz.
Nothing to do with Pro Tools, it's how it was remastered. It's the engineers.
@@vaiman7777 Yes, engineers
re I
The "remastering" destroys everything. How sad.
Interesting how 'perfection' sucks in music, I totally agree, feel the same about art too
Who needs friends like that Sebastian, I am sorry to say YOU are the ONLY Skid Row I have ever listened to. Just wanna let them know that Jealousy is NOT a good color on them. I also love how proud you are of your family and your fathers amazing talent! Rock on 🤘. Sorry I had to come back and say after hearing the 91 compared to the "new one" I am gonna give the "new" one a hard NOPE. WHY do they want to TAME the voice ??? I WANT THE RAW AND REAL DEAL. That's you Sebastian!
Right on grrrrl totally
I have a male friend like this who I'm no longer friends with recently as well as family of origin (who I am now leaving behind after they're hacking of my phone and one of them admitting it.) The sad thing about jealous people whether it be rockstar's haters or nobodys like me's haters is that they are too preoccupied with themselves to even admit the root to their envy problem
i like you, only like Skid Row with Sabastian Bach, when they played in Sweden rock in 2007 it was with some other singer listen to half a song walked away
@@pkj77 People think I am not being nice because I say that Sebastian IS Skid Row. I am not saying it to be mean I am just being honest. This guy's pipes are just one of a kind not to mention his stage presence. Sebastian is one badass motha trucker. Rock on pkkj77
Right like WHO can replace Sebastian Bach ??? Even IF and that's a HUGE IF they found someone who had Bach's vocals abilities (which I strongly doubt) he wouldn't be able to replace Bach's original sound Bach is who we know and WANT BOTTOM LINE!
I can't wait to see you live this November! Thank you for doing the tour, Slave to the Grind is always one of my favorite albums of all time. Rock on!
I hope I will able to see you this tour. Thanx for being apart of my life's history. U rock .
Bas is by far one of the very best metal singers EVER!!!! What was done to him by the band and Doc Mcgee is fucked up!!! Sebastian was the most beautiful man to ever step on a stage! Loved him then love him now!!!!
Ha ha ha
@@AtheistCook 🤷🏻♀️
Huge difference in sound. Was lucky enough to see you before the pandemic and looking forward to seeing you rock it again soon..Awesome cover. Still one of my favorite covers.. Cheers Bas..
My room was covered in over a hundred posters of you guys 💕 Always have and always will be my #1 Thank you for sharing something so personal to you with all of us and for your amazing voice 😘
Thank you for sharing this comparison. Ponderous. I can see/hear how much this music is your breath, your soul, your precious vitality that your share w/ us, the lifelong fans. It is Valuable to see/ hear you measure the differences. Thank you. Blessed be☆
In my opinion, the best album you have made, 30 years later, still from time to time I listen to it and sing out loud, what a powerful and beautiful voice you have in those songs ... Seb, you were great and you still are. Your songs will never die. Greetings from Sardinia🤙
Give Em Hell is just as AMAZING!!
One of my favorite albums of all time - I love The Threat. The number of times I've blown my voice out in the car on Quicksand Jesus is insane!
Threat is badass!!! Love it!!
LOVE THE PAINTING what a Treasure from your Father. U are always so entertaining to listen to make me laugh a lot. Keep your sense of humor and kick ass attitude ❤🌹
I have NEVER had an Album change my life and inspire me more than this one....Thank you Sir!
Zack Daniels ~
Sebastian, would love to see more videos like this from you....Watching you listen to this masterpiece in its original form takes us on a subliminal journey back to its creation ...I was 21 at the time it was released and bought it the day of....Recently I shared this album with my 21 year old daughter and she was mind blown...I really believe it's our duty to pass on this music to our younger generation....Be good bro!
“Compressed” - My sentiments exactly, Bas.
Grew up listening to you back in the early days with the hair I'm 51 & still luv listening to you and of course watching you as you still have our long hair which is a lot of the hp;d old bands don't have anymore. Congrats on your album it is funny that you look lost and finding it all amazing of what was done. OMG luv the wall art you have....
Don't worry my friend!
Every cell of the body of those who really love Skid Row and passed years listening and going crazy with that original sound, can remember and reproduce that supreme master piece in body, mind, heart and soul, even without hear it directly
However, we will try to find that original jewel. Even more difficult here in Argentina.
A truly fan of yours.
Sorry for expression errors. Spanish is my lenguage
One of my best Skid Row memories was when you guys played Dallas opening for GnR! Axl was his normal 3 hrs late self & you guys kept coming out having a great time with the fans! I still hear your Ice Ice Baby anytime I hear the original! Slave was an asskicker when it first came out & still holds up today!
My favorite album from you Bro! 2 Faves..."Quicksand Jesus" and "In A Darkened Room". Both songs were my anthems in college. Congrats! Salute!.....and Thank You for the Golden Vocals!
Same here it was those and a few more that really influenced me to take up guitar!
Quicksand Jesus is
The 91 version is far superior than the remastered version!!! Love this album!
I remember when this album came out. I was impressed by your voice and I became a Skid Row fan instantly! Where have all the good times gone?
You know what? You are not just the unique voice of Skid Row, you are also the face and doubtless the soul of that band. Congrats on your very special day!!!! I woudn't go anywhere to listen to Skid Row if you weren't there too, so...hope I can see you live on stage one day. Keep rocking!!!! 🤟🏻
Usually bands get softer after they have a hit not Skid Row this album hits hard,I remember getting this cassette for Christmas when it came out and I played the shit out of it!Glad your still rocking out Sebastian!!
Keep up the great work sir. I seen you guys with Pantera in Knoxville Tn on May 9, 1992. One of my favorite memories of the show was when you came over your left side of the stage and I was standing at the front and you started singing Quicksand Jesus. One of your best songs ever. Have a blessed day and hopefully you can make your way back to Knoxville Tn again someday.
Sebastian I love your brutal honesty brother. We as vinyl lovers feel this pain all the time with these reissues. The way you acted when you heard the original was so great! I know the record business has changed so much since the 80's and early 90's. Your honesty is greatly appreciated as I know some musicians would likely not be as honest as you have been with us. THANK YOU.
You’ve always seemed to be the most down to earth and the kindest guy in Rock. Did not know that your Dad painted the album cover. What amazing talent your Father had! Thanks for taking the time to share this with us!
✌🏼❤️🙏🏼
Thanks for all the great music Sebastian, your definitely one of the greatest metal vocalists of all time. The fans are still here. Sorry that Skid Row won't come to there senses and reunite with you, it would be one of the greatest metal reunions of all time. Three Skid Row albums with you isn't nearly enough. Your solo albums are way better than anything Skid Row is doing without you, been listening to those a lot lately. Just don't give up and keep doing what your doing.
I've been asleep since my stroke in August 2019, but I'm awakened and back to work and back to being a huge fan! God bless you, my hero. And thank you.
Thanks for posting this, brings back memories of Edinburgh playhouse back in the 80,s 3 rows from the front, think I even see the back of my head on the vid from that show. Excellent
Wow 30 years is a long time
🎸❤
Not compared to eternity.
Definitely one of the best bands of the era.
I finally got to see you! In person after 30some years of missing out! You have the vocals that I’ll never forget! You killed it last night in Hinkley Minnesota! We loved you
Oh my God 30 Years, feels Like it was yesterday, I really want to say Congratulations to you from the Bottom of my heart, I still Hear your Songs and try to sing like you, wich I obviusly can't, hahaha, Hugs and Kisses from your fans in México City!!!!! 🥰😘😀
I loved this album so much that I bought two cassettes of it - one for the car and one for the house. I had that record on replay for a month 😍
Slave to the Grind is truly one the best produced records of the all time, the balance and the tone are incredible.
You guys were my favorite band when i was growing up. Just watched your whole concert from Nippon, Budokan. Your energy and enthusiasm back then was awesome and inspiring! Wish i could have seen you in concert in your youth. You have amazing vocals! Keep your head up and enjoy life to its fullest my friend. Time flys by far too quickly.
Finished your biography yesterday. Good read! Much regained respect for your devotion and passion for music. Rock on!!
Can't wait to see you back on tour!
The first show I ever went to was Skid Row/Pantera in 92 when I was 16 years old. I've been to a lot of shows in my life and this one still stands out as one of the best ever. I remember everyone throwing their bags of weed on the stage and Phil from Pantera picking them up and telling the audience thanks.
SAME!!!! In OC, ‘91 I think!?
The coolest guy in Heavy Metal. Dude you are the greatest!!! Keep up the good vibes, we love you man!!!!
This masterpiece took me into heavy metal world back in the day, when i was a kid. I really do not Know how to thank you for this Mr. Bach. You are always precious to me!
God bless your dad, a father son/daughter relationship can be truly beautiful and full. I'm both son and dad... Best of both worlds.
Slave to the Grind is the best rock album! its gives you power and energy, i'm still rocking til today. thank you Skid Row for producing this masterpiece!!!
Feeling your emotions today. Your father was a great artist! Blessed family! Sounded great!
Slave to the Grind is what made this band metal gods.
Looking forward to seeing you on the road for Slave To The Grind! I know it's a very personal album for you. And your father did the painting of the cover.
Baz, no worries, I’m a jersey boy, I remember the early shows , I also remember how kind you were to us fans who visited you when you still lived in Raintree in freehold . We never left you ! God bless ! J...
I became rocker with this album, on 14 years old. Brilliant album!!! Thank you Sebastian!!! I'm still rocking on 44 \m/ \m/
I'm glad you're still around seems like everybody else is gone you are one of my favorite singers and the singer for Warrant! that's one of the best covers ever made that is crazy that it was your dad that painted that like I say I'm glad you're still around there's not many of my heroes left thanks for all you've done for music things just wouldn't be the same without what you guys did!💯👍
As a musician who grew up in the best era I was immediately shocked when you played the remastered version. You are sooo right saying it has nothing to do with the sound and excitement of the original version. I can only say thank god I was lucky enough to be raised in an era of real professionals and real musicians like you and the gang. Thank you so much for inspiring me with your unbelievable vocals and vibe that still considered for me as the highest level of feel, heart, attitude and performance ever made in ROCK history! TIMELESS AND PRICELESS!
Killer record. The best "drive fast in your car turn it all the way up..music..ever"
You're a legend my friend. I remember when slave came out and me and a few friends went to the concert and you were inviting people up to the stage to do some stage diving. Probably my best concert experience ever. Cheers to you bro!
I bought this on release day in 91' when i was 14. Your vocals are unmatched! Your vocals on Quicksand Jesus blows my mind! Still rocks 32 years later! What made you stand out from all the others is than you guys played all ranges of rock to brutally heavy plus i love you personality and energy!! Keep it rockin'
What a clusterfuck this is! I am so sorry to hear what this mess is? But one album that got me through my teenage years!! Also meeting you by Brookdale was an awesome experience. Guitar 100% sounds so much better on the original and also your vocals are so much deeper in midtones.
Sebastian did you hear vintage vinyl is closing after 45 years? I saw you play there and kinda sad to see him retire. I’m sure you’d want to know.
Slave &Quote to the Grind & Quote was the soundtrack of my early 20's. Well that and the Gn'R Illusions records. Just imagine if the original Skid row and Gn'R teamed for a tour this fall to celebrate these masterpieces! Hey, I can dream, right?
Love you man thanks for all your dedication to music.
Nice to see this report and hopefully we're the fans will see you back on stage late 2021.
That album hits so hard, I was so proud of those guys when they dropped that second album 🤘 while most bands we're becoming more "commercial" skid row kicked it up another gear.
I remember buying two copies of the original CD back in 1991 the day it came out just so I could have both versions (GTFO and Beggar’s Day versions) and they sounded great then and still do now (I love CDs). On another note, I always thought your father did an incredible job on the cover painting, and it looks totally impressive on the wall….wow!
Bad ass your pops did artwork! I starred at that artwork for hours in my room while rockin the album!!! 🤘
Love your music so much. I remenber in 1991, I was 11 years old. And I made a band because of you. And I sing and screen like you on my garage with my band. Love u and Skid Row so much. You and Guns n Roses was my favorite bands. From Brazil, Rio de Janeiro, thanks for Rock n' Roll. You are great.
Great memories, Sebastián is a true rock legend. Period
Prime example why it's important to own your masters. This makes me sad for a number of reasons.
I heard it, you heard it. I wish all reviews of vinyl reissues were this simple and easy.
Thanks Sebastian.
Sebastian, I'm a big fan of your work and your person. I have always admired your ability and talent, giving body and soul in everything u proposes to do. You built the band Skid Row, you were the soul of that group. 25 years later I still deeply regret your departure from the group, as in my view the band without you was no longer the Skid Row we loved. Keep it up, authentic, true, spontaneous and with this strong personality. These are the characteristics that have made you the landmark in the history of rock music worldwide. Kisses in the heart, love Isabel, Ribeirão Preto, SP - Brazil.
