The 77 dislikes are guitarists from the 90's. Lol. Love Michael Batio's never say die attitude. A saying "go hard or go home," comes to mind. BTW for those of you that don't know, Michael is left handed but plays a right handed guitar. Amazing.
I don't get why everyone here is trashing this guy. He took Led Zep songs and did his own spin on them. If you'd rather listen to the original, listen to the original.
How does someone get this good, Wow this guy is smokin" that guitar, I've seen lots of Michael's videos and he plays flawlessly, knows the guitar inside and out, plays with so much conviction, he really is so underrated as a guitarist but he is really great, I love watching him play he looks like he is having a great time...and to all the people that gave this a thumbs down, Jealousy is a Ugly Thing, get over yourself, you'll never play 1/4 as good.
Bunch of uptight, pretentious, holier than thou bitches who don't know how to relax and just have some fun ripping on a guitar. So I'd have to agree with HrhFish :D
+Johnny Good Wangy Malmsteens confidence gets the better of him. Malmsteen is an OK dude. He always calls up a mate of mine to jam with when he's in the UK
90's had some awesome music but the guitar was more grunge sounding and it worked for that style. Nirvana was awesome and pearl jam, etc. it fit the situation. 70's guitar was the most creative guitar era. well and vocals too but 90's had some good tunes too! Nice playin but the point of the music wasn't just guitar. It was a blend for creative vocals too! The composing back then was way way better than it is now!
If you want REAL composing, check out my channel. Look at my videos. The Song "Goin' To Seattle" is a very great example of good composing. It's not just insane playing. Rather, it is music that is put together right. I play all of the instruments with "special" emphasis on the guitar. Right now I have 5 singles in stores: 1. It's Just Cool > A modern approach to the beatnik style jazz bringing it to date and combining it with funk and rock. 2.Sex Drive > a REAL vocal Olympics Song. 3. Love Emotions And Sex Potions> More emphasis on vocals. 4.Goin' To Seattle > vocal and acoustic sound that is unique and modern + 90's combo. 5 Just Like Me > emo modern rock sound. 6. I Wish > A fantasy rock ballad! And I don't just play guitar. I compose real music with the awesome guitar and vocals combined!
I like some 80's, but nothing, and I do mean nothing, beats the music of the 70's. The 80's brought in too much flash and glamour; whereas, the 70's had bands that were more heard driving and creative with a rough hippie sound. And, the thing about technical ability is this: Yeah, it takes talent to play in a highly technical style, but, when it comes to a rock band that produces catchy songs and work as a unit to achieve that goal, I think I'll choose the latter. Who cares who can out blast the other one? I'm into music for enjoyment and I want to hear creative singers and song writing. Let's say, perhaps, like Jimmy Page, especially in the early years of Led Zeppelin, well, from '68 up to '76, was his BEST guitar playing, and, during that time, Jimmy more than proved that he had the technical skills to do just about anything he wanted to with his guitar, but that wasn't the only goal. Rather, he wanted to have a phenomenal BAND unit that had a UNIQUE and catchy collection of hits that everyone, or at least everyone who's cool, can relate to and love. And I do. I like Michael's style of playing and think he's one of the best guitarists ever, but if I had to choose between seeing him or seeing an older 70's rock band, let's say, Deep Purple, I'd go to the Deep Purple show because I like bands with vocalists and that work in unison instead of just spot lighting one person all of the time. When I go to a concert, I WANT TO BE ENTERTAINED!
stop comparing it to othera for fuck sake, that's all these young kids problems now a days, appreciate the man for what he does, he's continuing 80's metal shred, and does a fucking awesome job at it!
This has to be the most rational argument I've seen on RUclips. Both of you fellas were able to settle your differences. That's a real achievement here
You're cool man. Glad to see you're not just about arguing. I agree with everything you've said. Hell, there's 80s bands (hair metal too, sure) I enjoy too, 90s bands I enjoy, any era really. Variety is the spice of life :)
With pitch correction and digital additives used today, you would be hard pressed to identify most of the pop artists if they stepped up to a dry microphone. This is done so that producers can packge the right look. Just like fake food, the public is becoming addicted to fake music.
KB, you're not really serious are you? This is a cool little rendition but do a little research and you will discover that there are lots of brilliant, talented, mind blowing guitar players (not all of whom are "household names" mind you out there. Peace, MMM
MonsterMetalManiac MAB is the alpha and omega of guitar. He is the best there ever was, is, or will be. He made one critical mistake. When he sold his soul to satan he just said to be the best player ever, he forgot to add the Sub A clause of write the best songs too.
Dude, i agree, he is amazing.I just don't think he is the best ever. Have to put just a handful of shredders above him with one Swedish master comfortably in the top spot.....i think you know who i'm talking about. Peace!
LEGATO su e giù da paura!! Semplicità ad eseguire parti che rende così difficili, tecniche e iper veloci.. MAB is in own world out of any league. An unreachable level for any human guitarist.
All these haters man like cut him a break he's just a great talent that the world of heavy metal can say is there's along with dimebag zakk lynch satriani vai and it's why metal is better than pop so don't hate on your own kind
Hey Man, I totally agree with you. Jimmy Page and Zeppelin is the reason I became a guitarist 36 years ago. Yes MAB has technical skills but to me(IMHO) this just sounded like "look how fast I can play" over semi-sounding Zeppelin backing tracks! Where's the homage? Page played with passion, soul and always gave the song just what it needed...nothing more, nothing less. Zeppelin is still the #1 requested band on FM radio and MAB is what? Peace.
I know, I love super complex music, and every friend I know can't groove to it because it isn't simple nor do they understand what they are hearing, so I understand. But I respect the simple music just as much as the complex music, but in a way I must admit, I do dislike the popular simple music nowadays, as it is... but then there some simple stuff that I really do enjoy, idk, ears are weird. I'm more a musician than a guitarist, but I can still understand the love for technique ppl have.
I think a genius like MAB paying tribute to the great Led Zepplin is fine. His expression of Page's work is more complex that the original for sure, but if you listen the key Zep riffs, MAB totally nails them - the feeling, power and the original passion of Page's hooks are right there. MAB just thinks five times faster than most mortals and he likes to flaunt that.
Definition of tribute (n) trib·ute [ tríbbyoot ] 1. Expression of gratitude or praise: something said or given to show gratitude, praise, or admiration 2. Evidence of good: something that is indicative of a value, benefit, or good quality in somebody or something
None of what you say makes sense. Batio's timing is brilliant, his vibrato is perfect, his feeling is right there, and his musicanship and technical ability is beyond the comprehension of most mortals. His music IS good music. Live and let live dude. You gotta learn to appreciate more that your brand of music if you want to open your mind.a wee bit.
Is music a competition? I dare not to say the least. Music is sound, of which individuals who aren't deaf can hear, and choose to enjoy and create a meaningful attachment or passion to it. One can be more technically better than another on any instrument; however, it does not mean that the sound they are producing will affect people emotionally as much as the next playing slower/sloppier. With technical playing, most people are just impressed instead of actually feeling the music. Their choice.
Yes 90s guitarists do that... but 90s rock is awesome. STP, AIC, Rage against the machine, Nirvana All awesome bands really good shit. 90s guitar work is just awesome really drowns you in the songs. All music from the last century are true masterpieces. Music in today’s world... it ain’t fuckin music these fucks don’t have a clue what they are doing, they don’t even write their own songs. Back then it was all true talent. They wrote their songs and their instrumentals. They did all the work. That’s a real musician and true talent. 🤘🏼always will love the music from the last century. That’s music. Fuck this century we are in anyways it’s already going down.
Nirvana was a kick in the nuts of the music industry (since it was getting generic at the time). It was not what anyone expected. The thing with Nirvana is the attitude, the sarcasm, the lyrics, and such as, it is an art in its own sort that no one had ever heard before. Criticize the band's music about how simple it is and sloppy they play, but that's the thing, their attitude. Simplicity is the key to touch any audience, but complexity is only to touch other musicians/music-lovers emotionally.
@@BAND-MAID-USA that's utter bullshit and you know it. Petrucci is my all-time favorite and I think it would be amazing to see him on stage with Batio.
Anybody can do pop music you're saying? Well the thing with pop is... it's mostly how you look, how you sing and how good your record label is when advertising you to get you popular. You need the hots, to stay in fit, to have a voice on key (live performing) and get your fans on you (mostly girls since it's pop), and so well that is much more difficult than writing an easy tune XD
I don't actually embrace anything. I just stated that plenty of grunge bands were heaps ahead of a run of the mill 80s hair bands. Bad music was definitely present on both of those accounts. But in general, grunge had more balls and feeling to me than a bunch of technical noodling, sweeping and tapping (often with an awful rice distortion multieffect mid scooped tone).
zep song will live forever, its licks, melodies, the expression and most of all the feelings that cause us, totally different from this guys fretting their guitar, speed is nothing without expressions
The only way you and I could understand each other is if we sit down and jam. The music I listen to is nothing like this video, or any of the artists mentioned. Words aren't what should be used to discuss this sort of manner. I'm sure you understand. Text doesn't describe someone's musical thoughts, and emotions.
I have utmost respect for Batio. Met him several times and ALWAYS a nice guy. Great player too.
***** Just the fact that he's so humble makes THAT much more amazing.
Amen, he is.
Great? He kills!
The most technical of the Ramones.
I was thinking more of "cousin It"
of the Adams family.
The only thing missing
is the derby hat. 🔊🌫😵🚬👍🕵
Lol, this is Michael Angelo Batio. You know, from Nitro. He's awesome.
Not the Ramones. Lol
Michael Ramone, the one they kept in the basement
@@carmineredd1198 lol that's funny
Lucky to be living in the time of Batio. What an amazing guitar player. Total beast.
The 77 dislikes are guitarists from the 90's. Lol. Love Michael Batio's never say die attitude. A saying "go hard or go home," comes to mind. BTW for those of you that don't know, Michael is left handed but plays a right handed guitar. Amazing.
You might not like Michael Angelo Batio's style, but you must admit he has some amazing technical skills.
His touch 👍
some? he's one of the most technically advanced players on electric guitar if you ask me.
I don't get why everyone here is trashing this guy. He took Led Zep songs and did his own spin on them. If you'd rather listen to the original, listen to the original.
I agree he's a shredder that's his style he does what he likes.
any time ppl use those terms--- ''feel or soul ''to bash someone, never did their homework and cant play
Michael Angelo Batio: "A Down To Earth, Kick Ass Guy, All Around:.
How does someone get this good, Wow this guy is smokin" that guitar, I've seen lots of Michael's videos and he plays flawlessly, knows the guitar inside and out, plays with so much conviction, he really is so underrated as a guitarist but he is really great, I love watching him play he looks like he is having a great time...and to all the people that gave this a thumbs down, Jealousy is a Ugly Thing, get over yourself, you'll never play 1/4 as good.
holy cow he's especially on point in this one. FULLY LOCKED IN TO THE METAL POSITION!
This is some of the greatest guitar work I’ve ever heard... how am I just now hearing about this...
My ONLY complaint, no Kashmir?
Agree 100% with Michael. Also love his hard edge playing, he mixes melody and shred. Very cool.
Ηε is amazing, great guitar player must be a very good instructor funny with his playmobil hair , overall a wonderful person.
Maximum Respect to the Mighty MAB!!!!!
47 dislikes or 47 jealous people who wish they could play like this dude
Or 47 Zeppelin fans who feel insulted by this "tribute"
Bunch of uptight, pretentious, holier than thou bitches who don't know how to relax and just have some fun ripping on a guitar. So I'd have to agree with HrhFish :D
Could be, but as a Zep fan myself I like Michael too. This is just his interpretation, his version, and it's sounds great to me.
or Be this dude
Hrh Fish Perhaps, or perhaps they've heard him play for two minutes and everything sounds exactly the same after two minutes.
any haters please post a video of you doing it better....thanks
Ok.. Hold my beer.. Brb
Lol just kidding
Always heard that hes nice guy. Quite opposite of Malmsteen
+Johnny Good Wangy Malmsteens confidence gets the better of him. Malmsteen is an OK dude. He always calls up a mate of mine to jam with when he's in the UK
Malmsteen just repeats same parts over and over...
I ussually think he just fuck something up because he ´´already played it´´ so he doesnt have to pay attention to playing now.
Okay, Michael said: THE GREATEST HEAVY METAL BAND EVER:

i love how he dissed the 90's because he is mad that grunge wiped his music out
Yeah he got signed and right away got left behind
To be fair, there’s lots of guitarists that feel the same way. But you’re not wrong.
Edward Chamberlin I just want to know who he was trying to imitate
While he still plays guitar, I'm still trying to think of anyone from the 90s who did anything memorable.
What no stairway? Denied?
Papa Tk bi tch Best movie ever.

Why does every shredder have the same fucking tone? Horrendous.
