YO! For the Dave Z foundation - Kiss- c’mon and love me -Charlie Benante - Anthrax

- Here is a song we put together to help remember fallen musician and KISS super-fan David Z. In an industry not always known for its quality of character, Dave Z shone like a bright light in the darkness. With every musical collaboration, from the arenas to the clubs, Dave forged lasting friendships, valued people over pettiness, never held a grudge and approached it all with a playful smile. This video debuted last night July 14th (3 years from his passing) as part of an elaborate and moving online fundraiser for David Z foundation, started by Dave’s brother @pauliezofficial. Paulie’s nonprofit organization helps bring music education - which has been discarded from most US school systems - to deserving kids. Visit David Z Foundation on FB to view the entire event with many great performances and testimonials (5 hrs worth!) and for info on supporting. While the three of us - Charlie, Alex and Ra - have done several videos of music that’s a bit more complex (Rush, Dave’s other favorite band), we enjoyed the chance to let loose by covering Gene, Paul, Ace and Peter. “C’mon and Love Me” is a 70’s KISS tune full of swaggering macho male innuendo, but here it gets a feminine makeover, courtesy of our vocalist, the lovely Carla Harvey. We hope you enjoy this track dedicated to Dave Z, whose KISS fandom was, much like his own personality and musicianship, larger than life.

On July 14th 2017 the world lost an amazing musician and a beautiful soul when David Zablidowsky (known as David Z) was taken from us in a senseless and tragic automobile accident. Those that knew David knew how amazing the was as a person and as an artist. The way he lived his life was truly inspirational. He managed to succeed in the music industry, arguably one of the hardest industries out there, with sheer discipline, hard work and an unwavering positive attitude. He did this while avoiding the lure of drugs and alcohol and staying in peak physical condition. David had a unique mix of professionalism and childlike wonder that made him a joy to work with. Miraculously he climbed the ladder of success without making any enemies which is rare in this business. In addition to his work as a touring musician, David also loved education and working with young children. He love to share his knowledge with anyone who was willing to learn and always made you feel like the rock star in the conversation.
These are just some of the traits that inspired the creation of the David Z Foundation: a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that raises money for music education in memory of David. Our mission is to provide young aspiring musicians the proper tools needed to succeed in the industry on a professional and sustainable level. To help accomplish this, we have created the David Z Modern Musician program: an original music curriculum composed of three parts: individual instruction (The Lessons), group performance (The Band) and an industry/business class (The Workshop). The program runs for a full school year and ends with a live performance showcase.
The money we raise goes towards maintaining the program year round and offering scholarships to students to off set the cost of tuition. So far we have run the program two years in a row at the Brooklyn College prep Center which focuses on students ages 3-18. The goal this year is to start a DZMM program in LA as well and have them running on both coasts.

Paul Stanley has never looked better.
LOL
Oh, I thought that was Paul Stanley 😂 😂
You got that right...drinking from the fountain of gender reassignment
Starchild...mooowah👄🤩
Or sounded better
The only thing better than Alex Skolnick playing is TWO Alex Skolnicks playing!
2 Alex Skolnicks. Fuk Yeah.🤘🤘🤘🤘
Alex Skolnick and Ra Diaz, flawless as always, and Charlie absolutely winning the Internet due to these videos
I had no idea Alex was this good until I started to watch these videos, Ra Diaz couldn't be better and of course Charlie's just exceptional as usual
@@chuckdennhardt1121 Suicidal Tendencies has a knack for choosing awesome bassists
Alex Skolnick you are legendary
More KISS! Strutter, do you love me, God of thunder? These collabs have been the shit! Thank you Charlie.
It'd be cool as heck if they got Ace Frehley to play with them on a Klassic KISS tune.
All I know is if god forbid Charlie was no longer in Anthrax that he would have ZERO issue making another superstar band. These videos are absolutely killing it right now.
One of my fav Kiss tunes to cover. She's a better vocalist than we ever had. Nice job
Something seductive about a Female singing Paul’s Lyric! Alex Skolnick killing it as always!
Skolnick killing the Ace riffs, solos, everyone kicks ass!
10 out of 10. Keep them coming 🤘
Another great song!! Charlie and Crew are simply amazing. Alex's guitar harmonies are SO on point! Extra credit for Carla and her perfect Starchild makeup, absolutely gorgeous.
10/10!!! You get ALL of the up votes today!!! #KISSARMY
I now have confusing feelings about Starchild...
Made me laugh, and then i realised i now feel exactly the same...
She's hot
I dont
Damn you man. Damn you to hell. Now I have to question everything.
Paul Stanley feels equally about you. if that is any consolation. :)
My man Alex Skolnick crushing the Ace Frehley solo, and the Paul Stanley rhythm parts like a champ. My pal and fellow Fellow NYer Charlie Benante laying down the Peter Criss groove. Haven't had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Diaz, but hopefully I will in the future. And who is that wonderful woman singing? Hope to meet and interview her and Ra for Reality Check TV in the future. You can see interviews I have done with Carlie and Alex on our RUclips page, btw... KISS fans unite!
Oh, duh! My bad, it's Carla Harvey of Butcher Babies...I wasn't paying attention, and didn't recognize her with the Paul Stanley make up on! Reality Check Tv has had BB on our program, so now I suppose we still should get Ra Diaz on as well. Really good rendition by all concerned. Stay safe out there, and please #WearAMask!!
RIP Dave.. You are the Reason we do what we do.
I love this song! Love Carla's face paint! Great collaboration. Well done!
Everything about this song is rocking. Love the groove of the drums, those bass lines are smooth and the guitar is so melodic. Vocals were kick ass. Long live the hottest band in the land, KISS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great song, great cover. And I'm glad Paul Stanley finally went ahead and changed into a woman, his life long dream. He looks great!
I love this old Kiss song! Keep 'em coming, Charlie! You got Alex Skolnick to play as Ace! Just amazing.
I think she is one of the hottest women in the music business today and wow that rhythm guitarist is almost as good as that lead guitarist phenomenal job. 😎
This is so cool! great cover with Alex and Ra killing it as usual, Charlie is a monster on drums and Carla adding so much sexyness to the song !
Great version!!! Alex, Charlie, Ra and Carla Harvey are so talented.
This was fantastic! We need more KISS songs with a female vocalist!
Fu*king Amazing! My week is very better now with this version. You rock guys!
Absolutely superb!
Has to be the best lockdown collaboration yet by anyone 😎🤘
That was AWESOME!!!!Nice makeup,Carla!!!Thank you for these videos!!!R.I.P. David Z
Charlie & Co: Thx so much for collaborating on so many kick ass Tunes! This made my day. Dave Z. would be proud. Love & Hailz to you all. 💯🎶💀🤘🤘🤘🔊 #kissarmy
Can't stop watching this! Great, thanks Charlie and rest of the gang.
First time I saw Anthrax live was opening for KISS in Vancouver, BC in the spring of 1988. I got hit in the head by a drumstick thrown by Eric Carr, I got a lump on my noggin but someone else got the stick.🤕
First time I saw Anthrax was in Boston for $5. After the show they got McDonald's next to club and we all sat with them on the curb eating and talking next to their tour bus before the went back to NY
Weird, me also, KISS and Anthrax in Denver March of 88 and but I did get a stick from Eric, had a friend that was security on the front of the stage, Eric threw it and it hit the lighting rig, came down and hit my friend in the head, he picked it up and gave it to me after concert plus a Bass pic from Gene. Great show! RIP the Fox!
Thats a great kiss story thats the rock injuries we put ourselves through
Great KISS song - Great cover version! It sounds original👍🏻
Life long Kiss fan, you guys absolutely killed it! Charlie, Alex, Ra, god bless your very talented souls. Love the vocals btw, Paul would definitely approve.
Awesome. Other than this time the only way to get Mr. Alex to play a solo is in your face is at a testament concert. Awesome performance with talents on loan from God.
Can I just get the full Carla vid. I don't need the other guys. Thanks. (Great job. Loved it.)
You can. She also did for Playboy when she was younger. You're welcome)
Would have loved to seen Ra decked out like Gene 👍
My brothers had me turned into a KISS fan by the time I was 3 or 4. I had a 6 ft poster of them on my wall. Still a fan of all their music up until Lick It Up. I know Gene is a douche but w/e. I will always have a soft spot in my hear for their music and this ROCKS!! I know you're are more doing it for a fallen fan, but thanks Charlie, Alex and crew for sharing this to the rest of us!!
Baddass !! Great job once again guy's and girl's.
Bear with my spelling first and my lack of knowledge but is there an award for the most kickass channel on the internet? If so Charlie should win hands down
My all time favorite KISS song!
Music ... sounding good ... vocals ... fish back into the ocean !!!
Proud member of the KISS Army since 80.
Dang, if you told me that Carla was 43 years old, I'd say you were high. And she's very talented as well!
Awesome cover, guys. RIP Dave.
Dmitry Owens ..... beat me to that one. 😂
Benate is a LEGEND. Thnx for the quarantine vids. How about MOD , Get a real Job.
Charlie and co. Thanks so much for doing this all for us during a weird ass time!!! You guys are getting lots of smiles from my house!!!! Keep it up dude!!!

Nice work Carla🤘🏻🖤🤘🏻
Really killing it in this video! Charlie is da man
This Starchild (Carla) is much more enjoyable to watch!On a side note,Alex did an excellent job reproducing the studio version on guitar. I applaud him for keeping it faithful to the original.
That was Stellar! I hope to see Strutter or Nothing to Lose. Great stuff
I love this!!! Keep these videos coming!!!
Carla nailed the song. Great Vocal Performance.
Muito legal o Charlie sempre lembrando do Brasil
Greetings from Brasil 🤘🏻🇧🇷🤘🏻
I admire Alex's restraint.
Its for a foundation...that is cool! Didn't realize that at first.
These always put me in a good mood..
Wow! Whos that girl??
YEAH ! Awsome !!!!!
Awesome!! 🤘🏻
Good cover of an classic song! 🤟🏻
Thanks for this effort, It sounds great,saludos from México Rock city 🇲🇽
Charlie is having a "blast" during the quarantine! I think I just found "Superman" thanks for saving our days Charlie😁
This rules!! I always loved the open high hat accent during the break in the chorus. Charlie played the "Alive!" version, because on Dressed To Kill, Peter hits it a little sooner. KISS rules!! RIP David Z.
This my 274th time watching this. Why am I like this? Lol
Excellent cover.
I would love to see you guys and lady play 100000 years with the drum solo!
Excellent niceee!!!!!
Awesome ⚡️👏👏👏👏
Awesome!!
Man this is so good 🤘
Everyone looks like they had a lot of fun making this video. Thanks!
Too bad the guys didn't wear make up. Alex would be a great ACE!
I can't believe what a dead-on Ace Alex did here. Rad.
Star girl
