    This was one of the best live performances of this song. Could you imagine if the internet was around then? This might have millions of views. This was a raw performance with guitars and drums. Nobody can perform like this anymore.

    I play guitar and sing in a band, I have in different bands for like 15 years, but I can NEVER figure out how to sing and play this riff at the same time, lol. This dude killed it and then nails the solo. Legend

    Wow. First, it’s live. They’re all actually playing and singing. Rare for a studio based show for that time period. Another rarity: Rick playing solo rather than lead guitarist. Cool video. Thanks for sharing.

    • @kevinswift8654
      @kevinswift8654 7 месяцев назад

      this seems like it may have been early on before the song became absolutely MEGA. he sort of flubs the solo but not in a bad way. tbh for a punk / rock band this is totally fine, but I guess they decided for the stadium gigs and stuff they needed a real lead guitarist
      i actually like the way he played it here better lol, but music biz says otherwise!

    Jack White was the on-camera drummer for that song in the music video, but it was really Mike Baird (Mike Post, Journey) playing them in the recording.

      We know Jessie was Gary's girlfriend, but Rick doesn't remember her real name and as far as we know, nobody has tracked her down.
