He has soul that other shredders don't have. I can't believe him and Michael Schenker played back to back in the Scorpions. That is like a 1 in 500000000 to have 2 guitarists lined up like that.
Uli shows how to shred without shredding. While he can play lots of notes and fast, it its always heartfelt, honest, and purposeful. Never pretentious. I love it that he just uses some overdrive, just enough to do the job. The sound is so raw and lively and the way he controls it is masterful.
Short after Hendrix. He raised the bar quite high. Yngwie before Yngwie. Cannels Hendrix. First one to play the 4 Seasons of Vivaldi in original pitch.

His guitar playing sounds just as stellar as it did on my remastered Tokyo Tapes from 1978....Fucking amazing!! The Scorpions seriously need to have a giant farewell tour with Klaus Meine, Rudolf and Michael Schenker, Francis Bucholz, Herman Rarebell, and Uli Jon Roth. The guitarists could switch off a bit, but they really need to have 3 guitarists at all times so they can perfectly recreate the dual-lead guitar harmonies.
Francis stole money from the band,so i dont think they want to colaborate with him anymore. Herman quit the band coz he didnt wanted to play new songs,but he was at 40 years reunion. Michael has his own way of work,if he wanted to go back to the band,he would do this long time ago. But he was also at the reunion at Wacken 2006. Uli left the band coz he didnt wanted to change his style.
Same feeling bro. I saw the Scorpions in 2007 (for a second time, after 2005) and Uli was a special guest with them. They played many songs with him from their "era" and even had him sit on "When the Smoke is Going Down", which of course is a Jabs-era song. Uli nailed it perfectly. A dream come true to see the great man live in person
It's the B string - but he doesn't stop to tune it. Just keeps playing - then doesn't tune before the next song and it's STILL badly out of tune. Don't they have a roadie or a silent tuner pedal???
@@OFR The Sky Guitar he has actually tunes itself. That's what the little black box on the back of the headstock does. (Just came here from a rig rundown of his.)
Uli and the band really killin' it. I really got the goosebumps when that Pictured Life Intro and dual guitar harmony starts, We'll Burn the Sky is also a masterpiece. No words needed for Sails of Charon of course, since it's one of his best known and coolest song ever 🤘
At 14:22 he is staring (in awe) and then looking to his right as if to say: "what the fuck is he doing? Is having a stroke or something?" Haha I love how Uli always seeks out the limits of his equipment
@@haargenau462 wobei er x mal virtuoser ist als Hendrix, das muss man selbst als Hendrix Fan sagen...........Uli verehrt Jimi sehr und er war auch mit der Ex Verlobten von Jimi zusammen, eine Frau Monika Dannemann, aus ihrem Fundus stammt wohl auch eine Jimi Hendrix Gitarre, die Uli irgendwo vergraben hat an einem sicheren Ort......Solche Künstler werden immer weniger
Dude, what a pleasure to meet you ... live the internet here in my country I have not heard from your sound since 78 car unbelievable that good review only feel that a friend friend of mine died without seeing you touch face you are the greatest of all;
4 men inherited the spiritual and musical legacy of Jimi Hendrix when he passed away: Ronnie Montrose, Robin Trower, Frank Marino and Uli Roth. They don't play guitar-they caress it and help it sing. Peace.
Everything's out of tune. Especially the singer, who somehow gets excused being an ok looking guy, but is frankly a terrible singer. Maybe the stage monitors weren't working? Ullis guitar gets thrown shockingly out of tune just before the Sails song, nearly a whole tone or semi-tone out, probably whammy bar or guitar structure malfunction. The fact that it isn't corrected straight afterward, suggests that they were unaware.
@@nessiebreath Hes not good at this concert but hes great for example on the rock hard festival 2017. You can find that here on youtube if ur interested.
imposible encontrar otro cantante como Klaus Meine ninguno le llega para cantar estás canciones ni siquiera vocalistas famosos ,pero el cantante hizo lo mejor posible.
Não tem uma se quer que não seja originalmente dos SCORPIONS. Uli é um exelente guitarrista, sem dúvidas, mas sempre carregará o nome de ex-guitarrista dos SCORPIONS. SCORPIONS FOREVER.
Alot of the guitar parts sounded out of tune but in trance was brilliant. This makes me wanna go and listen to old scorpions music. Only scorps album I owned was in trance years ago on cassette loved it must try get that old stuff again. I have the family reunion dvd from wacken with uli and Michael great concert.
Will be seeing Roth in September, can’t wait.. first time. Don’t know what he’s going to be doing, hopefully a little bit of everything he’s ever done, especially Scorpions, his best work I think.
All the whale sounds shifting w/the classic sounds...vocalist did great. bring on Electric Sun period. Hard to control all of thee effects but 92% of the time here he nails it. Great band. Good to see ole Ule back too.
I met uli 20 years ago at Bradford at George's hall legends of rock gig met jack bruce Glenn Hughes and Frank Marino that night too have all autographs to this day great night
I’m not a jealous person, Karen, but in this case, I’ll make an exception! I’ve been fortunate to see Uli play and to interview and meet him many times and have seen and met Glenn, as well, but I’ve never seen Frank and never saw Jack. What an experience that must’ve been! Good for you!!
He has soul that other shredders don't have. I can't believe him and Michael Schenker played back to back in the Scorpions. That is like a 1 in 500000000 to have 2 guitarists lined up like that.
Uli's guitar work on the Tokyo tapes was EPIC !! I still listen to that CD all the time to this day
THE SCORPS BEST LINE UP 73-78 BY FAR!!! I LEARNED TOO PLAY TOKYO TAPES SIDE A BRO!!!!! CHEERS!!!
I listen to Tokyo Tapes regularly also. What a performance. The German Jimi Hendrix. His C.D. Scorpions Revisited is incredible.
Nobody can beat it
Listen to his version of Vivaldi's 4 season!
Same here.
Uli shows how to shred without shredding. While he can play lots of notes and fast, it its always heartfelt, honest, and purposeful. Never pretentious. I love it that he just uses some overdrive, just enough to do the job. The sound is so raw and lively and the way he controls it is masterful.
well said
He is the grandfather of shre
Shred
Before Eddie. Before Randy. Before Yngwie, there was ULI!
Short after Hendrix. He raised the bar quite high.
Yngwie before Yngwie. Cannels Hendrix. First one to play the 4 Seasons of Vivaldi in original pitch.
Ulrich
I noticed that when alot of well known players get older, they lose a part of the fire that they once had. Uli still has that fire when he plays.
This singer looks like he just dropped out of the lord of the rings movie onto the stage...EPIC!!!
I was wondering why Aragorn was wielding an axe.
I thought he was gonna head the guy in first row while revealing his chest
Sometimes looks like a karaoke singer, nonetheless a good show, if you dont have vintage klaus maine

Uli Roth, Richie Kotzen and Steve Morse. Impeccable guitar players. Best ever. Wish see them together. Love that concert so much too!
Another missing from that list is Frank Marino!
And Walter Rossi from Canada. ;-)@@safiramusica

The best performance at Wacken I ever saw. Beautiful songs and a fantastic band. Uli rocks.
Uli is just fantastic, even his guitar drops a little from the heat but still sounds awesome!
His guitar playing sounds just as stellar as it did on my remastered Tokyo Tapes from 1978....Fucking amazing!!

Tuning was bad.
exxpert!?

I hear ya but I think 2006 Waacken on DVD is our great reunion picture in time. Hey, I'll think I'll dig that up this weekend.
@@antrygis1 yes,that reunion was amazing😍
What a beautiful quitar Uli is playing... Great design and color!... Master workmanship for a master talent!
Uli Jon Roth concert and the camera films the bass player during one his solos. WTF!
Saw him on G3 Bilbao and he plays with so much passion and style that it blows you away. Fantastic guitarist, a true inspiration.
Oh yeah, so true!
I saw and meet Uli in a concert in Siegen 2016. Bring`d back a lot of memories from the early day`s-
Such a nice guy and an awesome guitarist
Absolutely!!! My first Uli's show was also in 2016 btw!
The most overlooked guitarist of all time. Uli is a sheer genius.
Nice! I still remember this - it was a dream come true!
Same feeling bro. I saw the Scorpions in 2007 (for a second time, after 2005) and Uli was a special guest with them. They played many songs with him from their "era" and even had him sit on "When the Smoke is Going Down", which of course is a Jabs-era song. Uli nailed it perfectly. A dream come true to see the great man live in person
This vocalist nails it!
he has a bit of early Uriah Heep vibe, isn't it?
Good day from the States. I've seen Uli. His fingers don't pick, they float:-) Peace.
This is great. Thanks Wacken!
Uli Jon Roth :-) Great musicianship "hear" :-) ROCK ON!!!!!!!
Uli is the best! I love him!
Looking forward to seeing Uli in 2024....will be my first time to see this legend!
The secret to be a top class guitarist? Have a mustache: Iommi, Blackmore, Roth and Hendrix all had!
PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm covered then!
kkkkkkkkkkk
That's where Im going wrong!!
35 years struggling.... and all I had to do was find my own style..... of moustache!
That's why you don't see many women at the top! 🎸🤔😄🤣
He's not from this world. What an outstanding guitarist! \m/
Absolutely
11:27 this is proof that even legends make mistakes, but still 🔥
To je ipak samo čovek...a verujem i da mu je već dosadila ta pesma.odsvirao je milion puta🙄
Ulis guitar work on „Fly to the Rainbow“ is like being in a thunderstrom surrounded by thunder and lightning ... unbelievable geil👍🤘👌
First time hearing Sails Of Charon back in the 70s I've been a fan-Carry On!
Its good to see Uli still playing and entertaining the masses :)
Taken By Force, Intrance and Virgin Killer are my favorite Scorps albums of all time!
Check out Lonesome Crow from 72, no Ulrich ( very young Michael Schenker ) but great album. This and In Trance are my favorite of the studio lp's.
@@robertzemko6590 yeah man, I got Lonesome Crow! And Intrance! Both xlnt lps...
Up to the 36th fret, fantastic.
First user of a seven string as well. A high A rather than lower G.
Sails of Charon, the b or g string is screwed, possibly both. Shit happens.
It's the B string - but he doesn't stop to tune it. Just keeps playing - then doesn't tune before the next song and it's STILL badly out of tune. Don't they have a roadie or a silent tuner pedal???
@@OFR The Sky Guitar he has actually tunes itself. That's what the little black box on the back of the headstock does. (Just came here from a rig rundown of his.)
OMG I know right, sounds horrible...
I’m wondering why his Tronical tuning system didn’t solve the problem. Puzzling…
Uli and the band really killin' it. I really got the goosebumps when that Pictured Life Intro and dual guitar harmony starts, We'll Burn the Sky is also a masterpiece. No words needed for Sails of Charon of course, since it's one of his best known and coolest song ever 🤘
Uli ist der beste
Ya I have that CD it's awesome ,love Jon Roths guitar work always did
Uli em palco alternativo
Dentro do Wacken
Chega até ser uma afronta
Uli John Roth come back again wow the legend gitaris🎼🎸🎸
I wish UJR got more attention, truly one of the worlds greatest guitarists
Absolutely
such a genius and relaxed guitarist. the one and only ULI!
Wow! What a Fantastic Set for us longtime Uli /Scorps fans!!! Amazing although miss Klaus! He cannot be replaced! Thanks for sharing!
Agree! Very, very hard to find someone that can impersonate Klaus. No one sounds like him, no matter how many drinks later :D
Uli would never expect or want someone to imitate Klaus, but your point is well taken that the material is very difficult to sing correctly!
uli jon roth ist nach meiner meinung,der wohl ausdrucksvollste e.-gitarrist den man welt-
weit auf der hiesigen welt finden kann!
At 14:22 he is staring (in awe) and then looking to his right as if to say: "what the fuck is he doing? Is having a stroke or something?"
Haha I love how Uli always seeks out the limits of his equipment
No one plays outta tune like Uli. No one even tries...
Who needs the scorpions when uli was the scorpions back then i love him now as then
Awesome!Belarus with you Uli!
Geiler Sänger und Begleitband, zum Maestro Uli muss man ja nix mehr sagen
Der deutsche Hendrix.
@@haargenau462 wobei er x mal virtuoser ist als Hendrix, das muss man selbst als Hendrix Fan sagen...........Uli verehrt Jimi sehr und er war auch mit der Ex Verlobten von Jimi zusammen, eine Frau Monika Dannemann, aus ihrem Fundus stammt wohl auch eine Jimi Hendrix Gitarre, die Uli irgendwo vergraben hat an einem sicheren Ort......Solche Künstler werden immer weniger
i'm looking forward to seeing Uli in n.y.c this july! hope he plays most of these tunes.
no polar nights..,. unreal show ... missed him on tour with yngwie no passport ,i guess, what a treat ,thanks for posting...
My neighbors must hate me when I copy these solos, but I feel like a God, like Uli!
Even back in the 70's when Meine was one of the best singers, he could not sing like this live. What a powerhouse!!!
Disagree, Respectfully.
Totally disagree.
With Chad, disagree.
WTF??
Lol.... just listen to tokyo tapes.
What a gig! Speechless
I love everything about your music forever your all awesome legends rock on 🤘❤🎸💯♥️
Dude, what a pleasure to meet you ... live the internet here in my country I have not heard from your sound since 78 car unbelievable that good review only feel that a friend friend of mine died without seeing you touch face you are the greatest of all;
Best Scorpions mid 70 go give Virgin Killers a listen .maybe some In trance. Taken by Force Tokyo Tapes
4 men inherited the spiritual and musical legacy of Jimi Hendrix when he passed away: Ronnie Montrose, Robin Trower, Frank Marino and Uli Roth. They don't play guitar-they caress it and help it sing. Peace.
oldones59 - Pervert.
the tuning was really off starting with sails of charon and going on

Yes i agree well out of tune you would have thought he could of heard it???
I noticed that too. But the corrections were made.
@@nessiebreath Hes not good at this concert but hes great for example on the rock hard festival 2017. You can find that here on youtube if ur interested.
Thanks I thought I'd lost more of hearing
Uli and crew are on fire... singer is great too...
Uli's having so much fun! look at his smile!
Wow, what solos in the climax of "We'll Burn The Sky"!
imposible encontrar otro cantante como Klaus Meine ninguno le llega para cantar estás canciones ni siquiera vocalistas famosos ,pero el cantante hizo lo mejor posible.
Totalmente de acuerdo
I think this singer is amazing. Klauses accent is too strong
Marvoulus Uli John Roth tokyo tape 1978 u are legend gitaris number One in the world🔥👍👍👍💪😘😍✌️🤟👋👍
beautiful presentation in wacken open air
Is it Jamie Little on drums? It's such a pleasure to watch how fit he is and how confident yet calm and easy he plays every note!👏
Buenísimo este senior guitarrista un fenómeno
Uli is amazing!
The Amazing Uli
Não tem uma se quer que não seja originalmente dos SCORPIONS. Uli é um exelente guitarrista, sem dúvidas, mas sempre carregará o nome de ex-guitarrista dos SCORPIONS.

Ex- Scorpion? Once a Scorpion always a Scorpion from what Ive seen.
Some beautiful stuff here. I've loved Scorps forever, I got my first album Lonesome Crow and been an addict since. Thought the singer did really well.
29:28 ´till the end of solo, This is sooo EPIC!!! What a moment!! Great great concert
Alot of the guitar parts sounded out of tune but in trance was brilliant. This makes me wanna go and listen to old scorpions music.

Brilliant as usual!!! Much love
Real heavy metal...!!!
All non ROTH guitarists in the band must play a Stratocaster!
well, it was Roths go to guitar before he got his own custom guitar
Uli is a new legend ..blowing Blackmore on now 👉🏻🎸
In trance... heavy like it's need to be!
Ma période de Scorpion que je préfère, Uli a vraiment un talent de ouf 🥰
Great Singer!!!
Faramir on vocals?
John Frusciante too
- from a begging korean province laughed and rightfully disdained below a bug even as a whole spiritually even among all asians
All the whale sounds shifting w/the classic sounds...vocalist did great. bring on Electric Sun period. Hard to control all of thee effects but 92% of the time here he nails it. Great band. Good to see ole Ule back too.
Uli your the best
Uli ist ein Gott. letztes Jahr 2 Std live auffemm Hammer of Doom. brillant. einfach nur geil.
