Tesla had hits, true They toured the world, true Had millions of fans and sold millions of records, true But were still one of, if not the most underrated band back in the day
Well, if they had continued playing and recording after the release of Bust a Nut and the subsequent Best of album they could have maintained a big following and continue evolving. They had two important assets on hand: great songs and a great management company (Q Prime). I guess the problem was within the band members: dysfunctional personalities and behaviors.
CAN I HAVE IT I WANNA BE TOMMY LITERALLY PICK THROUGH MY CLOTHES TRYING TO RECREATE HIS OUTFITS LIKE HIS ONE OUTFIT WIF THE LEATHER PANTS AND WHITE RUFFLED SHIRT AND LEATHER JACKET I RECREATED THAT
Tesla was one of my favorite bands when i was in my teens but he blew out his voice by the time the 3rd album hit. i remember telling a friend how much different he sounded on the Psychotic Supper from The Great Radio Controversy. The touring life is hard AF on you physically. Especially back then. Those first two albums to me were the very best Tesla.
Well yea they are by far their best 2 records,but imo his vouce didnt sound much different on psychotic supper,also his voice is very raspy and never seemed like it would last very long touring behind rock records!!but I did get a chance to see them in 90 opening up for Motley Crue at Lake compounce In Bristol CT and I thought they were great and liked them before then anyhow but I even liked the psychotic supper record,not as much but it still rocked,but had more filler then the previous 2!!
Regardless of their age they still look like babies! What was it, 29 + 26? Still look like babies to me. Okay I shouldn't say babies but they look so young compared to what their ages are in this. End of conversation.
AWESOME! Maybe this was some years before 1987 and that that was just when this aired or was released? They look way young there...I had no idea Jeff was so cute...Tommy wasn't too bad either.
When i posted this i was going on the information that was printed on the burmed dvd i was given by a big time Tesla fan who followed them around like the Greatful Dead. I thought it was fun to share because i had just recently found Tommy Skeoch music thst i loved. Ive never met them so i dont know about the exact dates. They do look like kids though.
@@FirebrandVOCALS I probably should have known more about them in 87 but I think I was still heavy into Heart and Rush. I didn't hear about Tesla till Heavens Trail and by then Def Leopard was my life. In 87 I was sixteen so my brain was mush anyway lol. I was more concerned with aquanet and designer jeans.
Saw them once, with Great White and maybe Whitesnake. Their first two albums were where it’s at!! I absolutely hated their unplugged mess. Sorry, not a fan.
Oh my my....so much excitement just starting their career back then. So impressed with this band. Keep rocking. Can't wait to see you next time
Still my favorite band! Going to see them in April!
I don’t see concerts anymore but I am going to see Tommy Scheos new band Resist and Bite in March. I really like his solo work too.
Tommy Skeoch’s solo work is my favorite.
Mechanical Resonance = Soundtrack of my Teen years
** the way they look at each other** when ppl was real,😀good buds!
Yes now Tommy got kicked out of Tesla for heroin addiction fucking tragic
1:07 ...but then at the end of this exchange it's like 'ok that's enough of the bromance' as they turn away from each other lol
No kidding! They look gay for each other...which I think is beautiful. It is very moving to me.
@@alexkx8599 It has to be gay for it to be moving to you? Do you know what percent of people are gay? A small percentage. Too bad for you I guess.
@@DavidJones-oq3xu goddamnit Tommy,idk that,I hope you are getting better
Saw these two in the round 1987 and 1988 those were the days....
This is so awesome!!!! Jeff seems like such a sweet, funny guy!!
Young pups. Great musicians.
Nice to see you young Guys Tesla❤❤
Old school!!! Love it. Thanks!!
That’s cool thanks for sharing
Omg they are young
Jeff was 27 here wow!!!
Tesla had hits, true
They toured the world, true
Had millions of fans and sold millions of records, true
But were still one of, if not the most underrated band back in the day
i knew underrated would rear its ugly,misunderstood head in these comments........

HEY HEY HEY JEFFS STILL GET THE BEST VOICE EVER-also I think it was the 1994 album bust a nut that his voice changed alot in
ONE OF! ONE OF?! WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WIF YOU TESLA SHOULD BE YOUR SO FAVORITE ITS NOT EVEN ON THE LIST
psychotic supper is their best album
I think Psychotic Supper is better than TGRC. Saw them on that tour and they were amazing
LMAO! They were just kids! It's like Wayne's World or some shit!
Jeff is like 60 now so he wasnt a kid here.
They look bike babies and they were just kids.
Regardless of their age they still look like babies! What was it, 29 + 26? Still look like babies to me. Okay I shouldn't say babies but they look so young compared to what their ages are in this. End of conversation.
Love Tesla....saw them in Vegas 2024. So much fun!!
Sweet badass rockin rollers!

Mechanical Resonance was my first rock record, 1986 i think. I still jam it to this day. 🤘
Dope.
Somehow the other video I posted of this same interview was deleted by youtube so I posted it again but didn't edit the ending woops.
I honestly wish they would give tommy another chance-knowing i will never get to meet him makes me cry my fuckin eyes out😭
Go to see his new band Resist and Bite. He is still playing good music.
Tommy has a awesome band go see him !!
I agree! Tommy and Frank are the best.
AWESOME! Maybe this was some years before 1987 and that that was just when this aired or was released? They look way young there...I had no idea Jeff was so cute...Tommy wasn't too bad either.
Jeff is so freaking cute 😍🎤
Yea they were like teenagers here,no way were they even close to 27!!
Jeff is so sweet he seems very intense but in a GOOD Way. Tommy was yow back when opening for Def leppard

Jeff was 28 here wow
87; 88; or 89? CNE Grandstands. Anyone remember? I always thought there were four bands on the ticket
Oh Tommy love your baby face ;)
They're just a bunch of tomato farmers from Sacramento (Nikki Sixx joking)
HOLY CRAP _ what are they like 14 here?
What's the name of the song that plays from the beginning of the interview ?
The song that's played while they are talking is Getting Better.
The full video is a little over 9 minutes long but the dvd only let me upload part of it to youtube and it keeps getting blocked in the united states.
Great song! Thanks ;)
Pedro Poyares GET EN BETTER
Getting better you don't here the slow intro fucking great tune check it out

Jeff was about 29 here? He looks much younger
