  • Dare I Say, He's Better Than Vai...

    I think so and I would also argue he's this generation's SRV...

    The tag solo on this is sick!

    Not sure I'm in to who is better than who, but all I can say is WOW. He is incredible.

      I agree, Vai is awesome too, but other than DLR/Whitesnake his style of music doesn't interest me all that much. I prefer the bluesy feel that Richie has, and I have always preferred vocals over instrumental stuff.

        Great tele action. Guy is world class obviously with everything he is doing in that video.

        Better than Vai...who can really say. Vai seemed to have a splashier entrance on the music scene when the world desperately needed some guitar heroes with his flash and technique. I love Vai's Alcatrazz and DLR stuff, but shy away from the solo stuff for the most part.

          Amazing guitar work. I agree on the tough to compare between artists...

            Yeah I saw this the other day... bought the album the instant I heard it. The album is pretty good, though this is definitely the best track on it.

              Always liked Richie. This is just insane. Very cool groove, smooth vox and unreal shredding. Gotta pick this one up!

                It's always been very apparent to me that Richie is a natural talent and can pick up anything and make it sound good. As far as song writting, tone, feel, "shred", I think he blows Vai away. I'm also not the biggest fan of Vai though and I don't really get his playing.

                    the Jesus has arrived!


                    btw. why compare a whacky futuristic sounding guitar wizard with blues and soul based multi instrumentalist?

                      Yeah, Richie's pretty fucking amazing - the first thing that he did that blew me away was on the Poison Live dvd where he did this unbelievably fast run across all the strings from the bottom to the top of the neck and back again. just incredible...

                        I have been saying this for years. This song confirms it.

                            WOW! Kotzen is lucky he's still got a career after doing that video. Anyone remember Billy Squier and his video for "Rock me Tonite"? Basically killed his career, and Billy wasn't even wearing makeup!!
