Rudy = Humble while also being a legend.
Perfect description
Every time Rudy talks theory & says “you know” I’m imagining Nikki thinking “no I don’t know”... At least that’s what I’m thinking.
Lol. I can see that Nikki is a little out of his element when Rudy starts to get technical.
Yea, but he's also still a big fan of music & self- admittedly just a big Kid, like he's in awe of Rudy being there & he's taking it all in. I get it, I can talk All Day about music, bands, etc.., but if ya start talking notes & theory you'll lose me, Rudy's very well trained in everything musically, Nikki didn't know a bass from a guitar but stuck with it while ppl around him prob thought he was silly & laughed at him, & look where he is now. Stick to ur guns, right. O how cliche was that 😆
Right. Depending on who Nikki is talking too is how he feels about the importance of reading and music theory.
I do believe that Nikki has improved over his career and I do think he is trying to learn the tools of his trade.

Lol, so true!
My dad worked with Rudy back in the Ozzy days and has always said what a really great guy Rudy is. He toured the the world with Rudy and said he never, ever give it the big I AM! Its not often my dad says this about people but he says Rudy is the most genuine, kind , generous and just all round cool guy. And I remember him at Shepperton studios, in rehearsals for Ozzy, and he played with me and my younger brother. I was 9 - 10yrs old! I played his bass through the PA and I thought I was the coolest!! he took the time to show me what to do. I also played with Randy and got to play Les Paul through the PA. He showed me the A chord. I wish I could have known at the time just how lucky I was.
Wow you were lucky to hang out with both Rudy and Randy. I've always felt like Rudy was a genuinely good person.
I had the pleasure to meet rudy back almost ten years ago in NYC.such a wholesome guy from the era of hard sex and hot drugs you wouldnt expect it
You are so fucking lucky
Awesome Leon
Can he play slipknot.
Such a huge Rudy fan. I mean he was in my favorite bands as a kid...Quiet Riot, Ozzy, Whitensake.
Me to lol!!
me too. And he was maybe the sexiest man on the 80's
Me too
Me too!! Well it was Quiet Riot Twisted Sister and Def Leppard
Dio
Rudy is a beast! Very underrated in many ways. He has played with some of the greats in music history and helped them achieve that greatness. Not to mention he is very down to earth and shows great appreciation for the music and his fans. Met him once with Whitesnake in their heyday and he was more than gracious. I have spoken to him via Facebook a few times and he seems to be a very good person. Thanks Nikki!
I was fortunate to have had the opportunity to to meet and have many conversations with both of these rock giants when my band was an opening act for Rudy in QR, and
Nikki with Crue, and they were every bit the down to earth guys that they appear in this clip. Which only made me respect them that much more.
Ya sure ya did. I opened for KISS too!
I love Rudy Sarzo, i. Became a huge fan when i heard Speak of the Devil. The bass playing is so good and he and Tommy Aldridge play so well together
I could listen to these two talk all day! So many stories and experience between them. Heavy Metal royalty.
The great Rudy Sarzo, this is the first time I've actually ever heard him speak. Very cool dude.
Check him out on Dean Del Rey's podcast. Cool guy from Cuba; musical family, tons of knowledge.
his interview on Rick Beato's channel is excellent.
Yes on the Church of What's Happening with Joey Diaz ...
Holy Crap... Rudy Sarzo !
one of my favourite bassists
He is awesome!
It would be great to see John Sykes on the show.
So how is it that 2 rock/bass gods sound so normal and accommodating to the lay person ? These Favorite Riff series are incredible !!! I am not a musician but I can't get enough of these conversations. With all due respect to Nikki and his guests they sound almost "nerdy/geeky" when they discuss music with each other which is so removed from seeing them on stage. Bravo, well done.
Nikki sixx is a joke of a bass player
I got to see both Whitesnake and Motley on that tour Rudy mentioned. The Day On The Green show at the Oakland Coliseum. October 10, 1987 (with Jetboy and Poison opening). Whitesnake was on fire! I wasn’t a big fan of theirs but that particular lineup of musicians was top notch and they ripped! I was super impressed! Those were the days!!👍🎸🎤🥁
ERIC F I was at that show also. 🤘🏻
How did I miss that Day on the Green!!! That would have been killer. I went to Day on the Green 85 with Wham! headlining 😳
Geezer Butler would be awesome on this show.
Rudy is genuinely a good dude. I ran into him in a record store back in the late 80's, and his demeanor was just like this vid. He is so cool and thoughtful with everybody. He never let fame get to his head.
I can’t imagine Nikki as anything but sober anymore, it’s so wonderful how he’s embraced his sobriety; dude is uber talented
Gaurd Luther12 said like a true “nobody”
Nikki Sixx really sucks. Seriously. I am all about "it's only rock and roll" and am a huge fan of straight ahead rock. But Nikki Sixx is probably the worst bassist since Sid Vicious, honestly. He rips everyone off with his songwriting as well. He is what is truly described as a person who became famous as a musician but cannot begin to fathom how to play the instrument.
MrJoeythebabykangaro you are a fucking ignorant idiot.
nonsense.
why are you here then?
I was never a big fan of Bass players. More of the singer and Lead guitar players . NOW I AM !! MUCH RESPECT TO THE BOTH OF YOU.
NIKKI your doing a great job! Everyone feels Comfortable around you. Your a very down to EARTH dude. Love this stuff. Very cool..
Did you watch the Zakk Wilde episode? That guy would not stop playing his guitar, it drive me nuts!
Nikki you're a bass geek and I think it would be very interesting to see a show where you interview yourself and show off some of the old and interesting gear that you've collected over the years. You do a very good job too.
I love seeing someone who is as accomplished as Rudy compliment someone like Sixx on his tone and playing. Totally puts the Nikki haters in place. He fucking rocks.
Rudy Sarzo - living RnR history
yup
Sávio Freire
Legend! 🖒
I beg you, bring Mick Mars,please!
Rudy Sarzo was/is one of the most under rated people in music. Loved him and loved his funky dance moves back in the day.
We love the new Spector Rudy Sarzo Signature bass, great instrument.
Would love to see John Sykes on your show !
First saw Rudy on the Diary of a Madman tour and that did it for me. Been playing bass now for 39 years.
Love hearing pros talk specs for instruments. Very cool.
I know a lot of folks don't care for Nikli Sixx as a bassist but i really like his style he bangs on the root notes then switches to doubling the guitar and even throws in some really cool lead fills when it's called for. Sometimes Nikki uses counter melodies such as in Dro Feel good which inthought was genius for the song. Studying Motley Crue and learning a handful of the basslines (in their entirety) really helped escalate my playing. So thanks for that. Rudy Sarzo is a complete savant as bassist. He's absolutely killing it with todays incarnation of Quiet Riot. Rudy IMHO is carrying the band name and legacy right now. Rest in Peace to arguably the greatest 1980s Rock N Roll drummer Frankie. I'm really bletss to have seen the man himself play drums in his band Quiet Riot in 2019. I'll never forget it. Amazing singer that year as well I'm surprised he didn't stay. He's the greatest Quiet Riot singer had by far next to of course their orginal vocalist RIP as well to Kevin.
i love this show! Please keep em coming!!
I love listening to people that know their stuff. What ever the subject. Just like Rudy here.
My favorite RUclips Channel...watch this all day!
Love listening you guys talk shop
Fantastic post. Brilliant how these two legends are just sitting down talking so broad about all things music.
Really like this series. Nikki seems like such a sincere and nice bloke, something quite pleasant and soothing not to mention informative and outright interesting about the way these conversations are taking place.
Brilliant series!! Many thanks!
Two of my favorite bass players!!! Hell yeah!!!
Ive met Rudy a couple times and he is one of the nicest guys out there. He has seen it all and played for damn near everybody. Great player, get his book " Off the Rails " best book EVER !
Nikki is an Amazing interviewer!! wow, just discovered this and wish it would of went on for hours. My 2 of 3 favorite Bass players in the world. I hope u have or i can find Sheehan on here. So impressed with Both but Blown away with Nikki and the ooze of a great piece. His grandma would be proud for sure.
Two great guys, such positive energy .. it's a treat to be a fly on the wall for this conversation :)
So beautiful... 2 of the greatest and they´re still humble.. wow
Nikki, your show rocks! I watch all the episodes. Great man!
Really cool stuff, with Rudy. Miss you in Dallas, TX Nikki Sixx.
@rudysarzo is a friend and mentor to SO many... myself included
Finally a good show for musicians!! I literally learned a lot from these, Particularly the theory part and what makes a good song! kEEP THEM COMING!
What a great segment, wow!
This Made Me feel so motivated for Playing!
Ahh... Rudy, my fav. since the 80s. He left a strong impression on me with his style and delivery/fist pounding on the bass body for punctuation and stage style
Much respect for Rudy
Loved the Whitesnake days
I still jam crying in the rain fairly regularly it rips
Awesome episode... great show nikki
I love Rudy Sarzo. He's just cool.
I always enjoyed Rudy's music and it's really cool to see his personality is just as awesome
I had Rudy's bass lesson video on VHS. Got so much from it.
Another great interview Nikki, you definitely have a natural ability for this stuff. I can't understand why you don't have a million subscribers already WTF. I had the pleasure of meeting Rudy at the airport in Calgary a few years ago . He was fantastic to talk with, we spoke for probably 15 min's, before getting on our flight to LA. One of the greats, an amazing show man and master of the instrument. Very cool dude. I only wish you guy's would have played more. Maybe next time.
Most underrated man in rock history played with Quiet Riot Ozzy Whitesnake and Blue Oyster Cult
Frank Castle
and with Ronnie James Dio too !
Saw him with the guess who last year and he was beyond excellent.
@Krushing Pussy that is mostly true. I think that the only albums that he has ever played on not counting live albums are Quiet Riot's Condition Critical and Whitesnake's Slip Of The Tongue. He has had a great career and toured with many amazing bands. Definitely the bass player for hire for sure.
BIG Nikki fan! (especially the SixxAM stuff) and Rudy is supreme... this vid is cool as I get to eavesdrop on two metal legends talking shop! Thanks Nikki for bringing these interesting interviews with interesting people. 😀
Awesome 👍 I just got a Bass two days ago, and Mr SarZo iZ quickly becoming one of my favorite Bass playerZ! HiZ work with OZZy and Whitesnake. 🎲🎸
One of my favorite guitarists! Such a humble guy! He wrote some real tasty licks for his time
I know that feeling when your in the same room as the drummer and just know when he's going to throw a fill in. Love it
It's great being a bassist it's cool seeing two rock legends get together and talk bass.
My fav 2 bass players of all time. I remember going to Girls Girls Girls 2 times. Whitesnake opened for them. They filmed the Wildside video here in Indianapolis @ MSA!
That was awesome!!
Nikki has a great knack for getting his guests to go below the surface of the topic and this provides real insight into both the guest and the industry. Could you please get Dennis Dunaway on your show? I don't think any bass player has better melodic feel.
This video length and dialog is much more entertaining than the one and done riff videos. Thanks
I want this show back!
Sick show!!!
So great seeing two Rock Icon's Sharing Awesomeness
This is awesome, sounds just like my friends and I, without the millions and hits of course. Big fan thanks fellas
This is such a great show. Not a musician, they are basically talking Chinese Algebra to me, but I could listen to them talk all day. Just really glad to see Nikki this way, very healthy and so into his craft. Rudy has been in a bunch of my "favorite" bands and to hear them both discuss behind the scenes stuff and how the music was put together is aces !!!
Good to see you both @nikki6 & @rudyfodness
Great interview Rudy is a legend and seems like a very cool dude I been a fan since 81' Blizzard Of Ozz NYC killer show he is one of my dream bassists keep up the cool work guys. \m/
I was at that show at the Palladium
Great episode. Rudy is great
my favorite show to far
Rudy can really talk music theory. I’m impressed….
I like him even more now.
You can feel that Rudy it's so nice person... Lovely guy and great, great musician. God bless him😇
Absolutely love Sixx and Rudy in this little session lol hey Nikki you should let someone come on the show and interview you for my favourite riff.
Legend
Rudy the living legend. Still kicking ass!
Rudy is one of the most down to earth musicians going. He is also one of the greatest bass players to ever walk the planet.
Rudy is such a cool guy I have spoken to him a few times he’s always so cool
Thanks Nikki :) Awesome channel..
I love Rudy .. he's such a cool person
These guys picked hairdo's that worked for them 35 years ago, and stuck with them
No one had hair like SIXX back in the 80s lol.
Tracy Gun'z Sixx got his hair style from Johnny Thunders
Exactly. It starts to look a bit ridiculous as you age.
@@rodrigosoares7126 naw they look sick
lmao
You need to get Geddy Lee on here....
One of the greatest musicians and greatest human beings of all time!!!
You can't help but like Rudy👊😎
Good Stuff. Saw them both at US festival, Metal Day. Young aggressive and hungry at that time. Both really popular in their bands. Rock On
🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
Summer of 1984...My two favorite L.A. Metal bands... QUIET RIOT & MÖTLEY CRÜE (AH & W.A.S.P.)
P.S.When I was a teenager child...
Cool video. A couple of corrections: the first Fender basses were Precisions with single coil pickups, not hum buckers; Leo Fender played the saxophone.
i saw rudy perform with some other musicians at the randy rhoads memorial show a few years back at the sage brush cantina in augora, CA and he was amazing
Get Vivian Campbell on here. It would be awesome if he brought his Anderson Guitars! I helped make those. He’s a super nice guy. Incredible player and very humble too.
Rudy is a super-bassist, & comes across as a super cool dude! He comes to mind when I think of the greats!
Great episode i love it when its bass players..;) would love to see bob daisley or jason newsted...:)
Thank you for having my hero Rudy Sardo :) I love Quiet Riot and RIP Frankie Banali :(
Rudy is such a good guy!! So humble.
Keep killing it Nikki & Jenn..
Rudy is the man, Nikki is great as always, two cool cats!
Rudys bass is AWESOME!
Love the theory talk, been preachin that major and relative minor to students forever. nice....Luv Sarzo and Sixx since 86
& a superb interviewer
Very down to earth dude Rudy is..I sat with him at the bar next too house of blues after watching him with Yngwie. Drank a beer with him and just shot the shit..easy guy to talk too, and he had no bones about the few questions I had..mainly about Randy Rhoades
Rudy is a REAL LEGEND!
Awesome episode... gonna check out Sass Jordan’s album. Being Canadian, gotta check it out and especially with Fitz and Sarzo on it
