      You, sir are incorrect. He's the real deal. I just watched him on Life in Six Strings with Kylie Olsson. Music is in his DNA. 10 siblings all musicians growing up poor in a small house filled with every instrument you could think of. The wide age range meant they were all into different genres and he played all genres from a young age. The real deal.😮

      he is known and has been since early 90's. I live in a rural town in eastern Canada and they were huge even here., every musician knows Nuno, Extreme has was really bug even back then. "More than words"? a major hit,"get the fink out" etc etc

    This man is really my favorite guitarist for a long time. He's the perfect combination with the killer riffs from Jimmy Page, the wild sound from Jimi Hendrix, the melodic and the dramatic vibratos like Brian May and the virtuosity from Eddy Van Halen and Yngwie Malmsteen. Nuno really created a style of rock, mixing funk, groove, pop and heavy metal. And what a great composer, singer, showman... come on. He's really the greatest! What a nice dude too.

    • @stantheman1976
      @stantheman1976 5 лет назад +36

      I think it's probably because of the peers he came to notoriety around. Paul Gilbert made a name for himself in Racer X. Everyone in that band was at least of equal caliber and they wrote music that showed that off. Jason Becker started with Marty Friedman making music where they both showed their skills fully. Nuno gained fame in Extreme who came around during the hair metal era so they got lumped into that category. The guys in Extreme were talented but they weren't Jason Becker or Scott Travis level. Jason Becker would have known no boundaries to his skill level had his ability to play not been taken away.

I've been fortunate enough to see pretty much all of the legends in concert, (Van Halen, Beach, Lynch, Malmsteen, Petrucci, Dimbag, Lee, etc) and no one can touch Nuno. I'm not even a fan of his band's tunes, but his talent is undeniable. Have you had a chance to see him live? If not, I highly recommend it.

    Nuno has always been a favorite. You always heard about Vai and Satriani and Gilbert but this guy was always playing at their level and not getting talked about at all. Probably the main, if only, reason I listened to Extreme not to knock them in any kind of way.

    Everyone is shitting themselves over how “underrated” he is but thats not even remotely true. Seriously what made you people think that? Just because you didnt know him doesnt make him less “famous” or “underrated”. Extreme as a band is very much praised for their musicality and Nuno is almost always mentioned when it comes to shredding or virtuosity because he contains and combines both elements. Anyway, absolutely amazing guitarist

    • @Larcona_

      Normally I would argue, and as much as I like the early extreme albums - I have to agree. Nuno deserved to be much more famous than he is. He gets a lot of recognition though from legends like Brian May - who just love his playing.
