- Nuno Bettencourt in conversation with ROLLING STONE about the new Extreme album "Six", his solo in "Rise" and the legacy of Eddie Van Halen.
Interview: Markus Brandstetter (hyperlocrian.com)
Great humble attitude. EVH will always be KING! Keep that spirit alive! ITS ALWAYS ABOUT THE SONG!!
There is no insistence on having a current "KING" amongst lead guitarists. But if that title falls upon Nuno Bettenxort... I find him worthy of the crown. Humble, willing to share his knowledge with younger players, giving of himself in interviews, and clearly... he loves the music. He understands the importance of his fans.
May your reign be long and fulfilling. :0)
Thank you. . I love their new album . Nuno interviews are the best. We feel his excitement ❤
Thanks for the Nuno interview! Great stuff!
More Than Words opened me up to the rest of the catalog. Love it all.❤
I wonder how his marriage is going so far?
👏👏👏👏
❤❤Nuno
It's about projection, too. Seeing someone sitting on his couch in his underoos just doesn't cut it, no matter, how great it may be.
I lived in Germany for five years. It's so hard for a German to be cool. lol
Doesn't take Nuno long to unleash the f bomb. Funny.
Sorry but did Nuno fart 17.24 🤣
HAKEN shirt GREAT
Nuno is a Monster player but I cringe when people say that he's humble.
He is a control freak with Extreme, and not only in every aspect of the their music, to production, also visually, and all aspects of the media representation. He's praising the video's, because all 3 of these new videos he's Directed. He's beyond amazing, but he is in NO Way humble, nor can he be with millions of praise he has gotten since he was in his early 20's.
Did we listen to the same interview ? In no way he "praises" the videos, he says that despite he put in all the "control freak" job, once the songs and the supporting videos are out, they don't belong to Extreme nor Nuno anymore but to the audience. One can be indeed a "control freak" in a project and yet be humble regarding their status in the field's history, among their peers and in front of the audience. There are areas where project leaders just can't control anything and they better know it. Bettencourt has been the control freak you're depicting for almost forty years and yet the band is still active. The three other members have been in for fifteen years at the minimum, it may mean that there are some advantages being led this way - and that he must not be more difficult than anyone can handle.
You’ve been in the studio with him?
I guess he's not entitled to have pride in what he's created? And YOUR videos YOU'VE made, you would prefer someone else direct them? C'mon man... lose your mean streak.
I just watched the entire interview and one other thing. Nuno Never refer to yourself in the 3rd person.
😂
Excuse me Nuno, Page solos without music is worth 50%????? Sorry but not all your solos are good as 1 Page solo. Page is the BEST guitarrist from decades after the dead Jimmy Hendrix. Don´t insult people that has made a revolution on rock, creating new sounds, making 20 min. solos.... you wish. EVH couldn´t play Michael Jackson Beat it solo and ask Jeniffer Batten for help so she taught him . What an amazing guitarrist. Nobody sits on EVH´s throne because that throne is taken by THE GREAT JIMMY PAGE!!!!!!!
What in the hell are you saying? Eddie had to get help from Jennifer Batten to learn the Beat It solo?
Also, i think Nuno is one of the greatest, but the eating during the interview doesn't come across very good. Does he not like this interviewer?
@@Roger8176 Read Wikipedia from Jennifer.
Page is the best, IN YOUR OPINION, music is subjective
@@RAMITA9 he met her years after he recorded it and asked for a refresher, not to teach it to him, get your facts straight. Fun fact, he also had to relearn some early VH songs when Gary joined the band because Gary wanted to play them…NONE of this diminished his legacy
@@robpaxson4455 You didn't Read the Wikipedia if he has that good why would he need a refresher?? Don't make me laugh.
