My mom is micks aunt Annie that you talked about and he talked about her in the dirt and many interviews. She passed in 2020. Mick was always good to us having us backstage at concerts. Mom use to drive him and one of the bands he was in to do shows in a old box van. She use to tell me all kinds of stories about him.
@@leewirt9380 now that is awesome !!.. I used to be a stage hand rigger,, I hung the light trusses and sound for alot of bands , but I never got to do a motley crue show,, they were my favorite 80s band ,, mick mars is someone ide truly love to shake his hand and tell him what an influence he has left in his "loud , rude and aggressive" guitar playing !! Lol
Yes,that right... And even with MC original singer (V.neil), MC generation swine is totally awfull, i didn't recognize that's Motley crue, the sound like they trying so hard to catch up grunge sound and vibes...and the result is Big Failed.
I agree... I dont mean any disrespect for John 5, he is a wonderful guy... But kicking Mick Mars out of the band to insert John 5 in, is like patching and old torn up pair of pants with a piece of new cloth... Which as a matter of fact, will end up being unfair even to John 5 himself... What will happen with John 5 when another one, or even worse, all of the original members die, become sick or too old to play??? I'm not saying it will be the end of the World, of course he can get more gigs, but, I don't know, maybe a feeleing of loss if he gets attached to the emotionaly as a brotherhood as it commonly happens with banda members... I don't know... Just letting imagination fly...
I agree as well 100% they should have called it quits after the end tour . Nikki , Vince , and Tommy could still go play with other bands , if they love playing live . But of course Nikki wouldn't do this because the name MC is where $$ is . He is the problem . The guy should have saved his money better . He's been making millions for 30 years .
I have loved Motley Crue since high school. I am terribly sad that MC robbed Mick of the majority of his ownership in the band. I have seen them sooooo many times. I won't see them without the full band.
Mick Mars hell yeah, that´s my Mick. This is sad, this situation between Nikki Sixx and Mick Mars is sad, i never thought i would see this. Sad sad Sad.
Nikki wanted to replace him back in the 80's .. both Bob Daisley , and Jake e Lee have both said Nikki told them this back then . Nikki is a snake , it doesn't surprise me he would be like this in the current issue .
Love the vid dude, learned a lot about mick. By the way if your story about having one of the first Too Fast For Love records than that is bad ass dude
Thanks for the great tribute to a super great guitar player,Mick Mars.He was the best of the 80's decade,Shout at the Devil has been in my CD player since it was released and will never come out in this lifetime.I also find for the plaintiff,case closed!
Motley has been done for a few decades. Mick WAS the talent in that band. Even suggested the name. They were trying to replace him since the 80's. Backstabbers
He is on Swine too but only on guitar no vocals. He was laying down tracks for it when Vince came back and messed everything up. But some of those songs have Corabi on them.
If they would have replaced Mick with Jake E Lee, Crue would have quickly died. I’m 100% on team Mick. Such an incredible artist and guitar player. All those riffs. Incredible. Sad to see it all ending like this as they collectively made their dreams come true through years of hard work. Sad.
I'm a big fan of Motley Crue and I enjoyed your segment very much. My favorite band is the who. In the future would it be possible if you could do a segment on Pete Townshed? He's my favorite rock writer. Thanks Again!
Thank you. Actually I was JUST watching an excerpt of Tommy and was thinking about doing something on Pete Townsend. Great suggestion! Thanks for watching!
The research here is awful. He was in school with Steve Martin who is 6 years older? The Corabi album is Self Titled. “Generation Swine” is Vince’s return…..
Well, first I did preface the video saying that the info from his younger years I got from the book Motley Rock Stories by Jack Valentine and that some of the info could be inaccurate. Yeah, Steve Martin is older so that piece is incorrect. You are also correct, I completely messed up on the album, it was self-Titled Motley Crue, not Generation Swine Corabi was on. My bad, thanks for watching!
Mick was the Crue. They needed the older more experienced dude to bring balance to their image and sound. And thats always what I liked about them. It's not Crue now.
This was good,no bull crap that is mainly gossip. When Motley Crue first Strarted ,I got tickets from Nikki ,I worked at a Music store in Burbank California, called Killeens music. One note Frankie, as everyone called him ,because he basically either was riding the E or A string ,which was tuned down a whole step,Micks idea! Anyway, I was x at the first show ,at a place called Pookies, no fight, basically no people, buy I met the manager, micks brother in law, who dumped a half million into the band, with the promise that he would be repaid when Motley got their advance when they got the record deal,instead they fired him and wrote the song bastard about,him,that should tell you what they are like! It's hard to say this when they treated me great! But ,they have ruined peoples careers, and now mick,the guy who is Motley Crue, not Tommy,I'm a rapper from Compton, is a tren follower, Nikki is the biggest poser I have ever met ,and now John 5 ,or lowery, is going to maybe last one album’,and he will have to leave ,that whole band still is drinking and taking drugs! John doesn't like that. But wRob
Opps not done. Anyway, I give John 1 world tour and one album, and he will leave ! Rob Zombie doesn't drink or do drugs,who many albums did he do with Manson, 1. I know these guys Marilyn Manson was a huge fan of my band Trick Or Treat, and we went to see the first Iron Maiden show when Bruce came back ,front row at the Greek! So I know these guys ,and fame can destroy anyone! I hope Micks last few years are as good as possible, and Nikki needs to get on his knees and beg for forgiveness! He has a big tattoo on his calf of mick ,why would Nikki do that? Guilt? Who knows, but if Mick dies before they make up,it will huant that band forever, inwould hope!
I was watching a tribute/documentary about Lemmy, and in it they were interviewing bass players and friends of his. Well Mr. Sixx was part of it and the dude was stoned as could be. I'm like what? I thought you "sober"? He's so full of crap. I have since heard of California sober. Where you drink wine and smoke weed, but where I come from, sober means laying it all down.
The only album with Corabi was really on the Motely Crue, Not Generation Swine. Mick has actually said Motley Crue album was his favorite album. The more you you.
The new song Dogs of war sucks. Motley has been lousy since the decadence greatest hits album although the Motley Crue album was decent but they went into too much grunge.
Aaah.. I like a few tunes off "New Tattoo" and "St. Of Los Angelas" but NOTHING comes close to their '80s hayday. I don't consider the self titled one to be a Crue album at all though. It just doesn't "feel" right to me. Just my opinion.
This is my first time watching your video and I don’t see all that great I thought your hat was one of those detective hats. It was kind of funny anyway thanks for the video.
Listened to the Crew for years, and Mick is the man with the hooks... Without Mick's creative rhythm guitar and hooks, the Crew would not have been what they were. It's a damn shame he has that paralyzing disease. The Crew's prime has long past, and the last song I liked by them was Primal Scream... Tommy's drumming in their albums was also very original and brought greatness to the songs... But, without Mick, there is no Crew.
Actually my man it's Corabi, John Corabi and he was on the self titled "Motley Crue" released in 1994. IMO their best record by far. He also had already laid most of the guitar tracks down on Generation Swine but before it was released Vince was back in the band so you only hear a little of John Corabi and only on guitar. Generation Swine and everything after was terrible. I never listened to Crue again other than the older records. I have always been a fan of Mick Mars. I think "Misunderstood" off of the 94 record was his best written song. Thanks for the info man it's really great to hear more about him and your delivery was great other than that one little missed fact about Corabi. \m/ \m/
You know I've always thought that if Motley woulda changed their name when John took Vince's spot on vocals that album would've been a way bigger success honestly speaking.
@@stevelongmusic880 You know what my brother? To this very day I still don't understand why John ended up getting so much hate from the fan's. I've seen The Crue live three times beginning with the summer of 88 during their GIRLS GIRLS GIRLS world tour held at Legend Valley. The second show was held at the same venue during the summer of 1990 on their DR FEELGOOD world tour and the last show was held at Polaris Amphitheater, in the summer of 94 during their self titled album MOTLEY CRUE featuring John on lead vocals of course! Now the 18,000 seater didn't come close to selling out only 8,000 of us showed up for the show but let me say this my friend John's performance was a 1,000 times entertaining than both of Vince's show put together.
Guitar Player cover, main Interview, mid 1990’s….Mick cites Alvin Lee as his guitar idol.And if you had ever been around L.A. back in the late’70’s-mid- 80’s, you’d know why. To this day, Bob speaks reverently of Alvin…
Man,, thank you for this ,, motley crue was my favorite 80s metal band ,, im now 50.. and ive had a change in what I thought they were !!!.. MICK MARS is the crue !!!.. I lost all respect for them !!!.. he is the talent that made them!!!..
U know, M.C. would have stayed in the spotlight a bit longer had they not got rid of Vince way back in the 90s. Instead they were kind of "over with" back then lol No one ever cared again after that moment in time.
I’m sure it’s been pointed out several times in the comments, but John was on the self titled album (great record). Generation Swine (poo poo) was Vince’s first album back
One thing's for sure, Crue won't get any better without Mick. John 5 is an excellent guitarist, but Crue is just not the same without Mick, and honestly, they were on a steep decline for years. But they never could have made it without Mick's amazing guitar craftsmanship. I had a strong understanding of where the guitar sits in a mix, harmony, song structure. The whole deal.
No disrespect it’s just a different way for me to look at it. Now I have a few.… When I hear the song, Jack and Diane by John Cougar menstrual cramp, I think of the 16-year-old couple I was in high school with that were sharing a third trimester pregnancy in the ninth grade. They kept the baby and went on to do great things… I think you’re environment greatly interprets what you hear in a song. There’s no disagreement… Just the way different people can absorb things. I like where your career is going Tommy Lee and Mr. Maher. Great things to come, gentlemen.
You are incorrect about Corabi singing on Generation Swine…Mick loved playing on the self titled album MOTLEY CRUE where Corabi was the singer…Mick hated playing on the Generation Swine album bc of the producer. SWINE IS HORRIBLE
The original guitar player, dang that still catches me off guard .I truly like John , The man is great just wish he wasn't in the middle , great bank I'm sure ,cant hate on that just kinda makes me wonder if he may of sharpened that knife for Nikki before he stuck it in Micks back, hate to think he would .
I don’t like Motley Crue that much but I really like micks riffs, and mick is the only member I respect, as hes the only one who isn’t a completely horrible person
Why the hell would you say the Album Corabi did was Generation Swine? That was Vince. Corabi sang on the beat Album they ever did. Motley Crue Motley Crue.
@stevelongmusic880 I saw Corabi and the Scream open up for the Bullet Boys. He was AMAZING LIVE! Then a few months later Motley Announced him as the new singer. I saw them live and it was one of the best sounding concerts I've ever been to. I love the self titled album. To me it doesn't sound dated even today. And I think we would have gotten 5 to 10 more great albums with them had they stuck with him.
Your information is wrong on Vinces departure.. John Corabi was on the self titled Motley Cue album with the si gle Hooligans Holiday. after poor rdcird and concert ticket sales Cirabi was let go and Vince returned to record Generation Swine
What did I get wrong on Vince's departure, I said either left of was fired so that kinda covers it :) You are right, I was incorrect on Generation Swine. I messed that up. Thanks for watching!
Also the name motley crue came from the studio techs. As they walked in (all 4 members) they were known as Christmas. This is where the name was born. Don't they look like a mottley crew.
The Corabi album was the self titled 94 release. Although Generation Swine was written with Corabi, they decided to bring back Vince and record/release it. The album sucked but had a couple decent songs.
Not arguing that Nikki was part of it. In my opinion they lost their magic when they started cutting Mick out of the writing process, so that's where I'm coming from. I will say I loved Sixx AM. Thanks for watching!
Nikki had the dream and songs, but Mick had the hunger. Everyone knows that no one person writes a song start to finish without the band having their say so. I do see the group effort being part of it here and everything going through a filtering process of song writer, band, producer and label.
I’ve been a huge Mötley fan since shout at the devil and it hurts me to see and hear vince just being horrible live. I mean I don’t expect any singer to be perfect live but it’s obvious that Vince doesn’t put in the work. He’s lazy all the way around and I come from a work hard family. So to see Vince being a millionaire and has the resources to be better and not caring enough to go out and be the best version of himself just sucks. And by him being that way it’s a reflection on the other guys

All the talent that was in that band went with Mick.

What a nice story of Mick Mars. FINALLY!... a good deal information I'd not heard before.
Many thanks!!!!
Thank you, and thanks for watching!
Motley’s first non Platinum album was released as the self titled, 1994, “Motley Crue”. 😊
The Corabi album with Motley was the self titled, “Motley Crue”. Vince was on “Generation Swine”.

Yes,that right... And even with MC original singer (V.neil), MC generation swine is totally awfull, i didn't recognize that's Motley crue, the sound like they trying so hard to catch up grunge sound and vibes...and the result is Big Failed.

Almost every Crue song that sticks out to me is the ones that Mick has a big part of. Like Wild Side, Kickstart my Heart, etc.
@isher9035 home sweet home solo is one of the greatest
Corabi did the self titled album, not Swine.
True. And took me a bit but I actually like it. Most musical Nikki and Tommy ever really got in my opinion
He is on Swine too but only on guitar no vocals. He was laying down tracks for it when Vince came back and messed everything up. But some of those songs have Corabi on them.

@michaelcook5266 I don't think it was vince that messed it up it was da fans that didn't expect Corabi
Mick seems quite reasonable and he’s both been the glue and the musician in the band. And he’s endured some downhills in this crazy band…
Yeah they definitely have been a roller coaster over the years. Thanks for watching!

I’m sure it’s been pointed out several times in the comments, but John was on the self titled album (great record). Generation Swine (poo poo) was Vince’s first album back
@@Pie_Yow_Comme_Ca yeah I messed that up. Thanks for watching!
Ha! I've been to that mall lots of times. I lived in St Johns in the early 80's
Ha small world huh? Thanks for watching!
13:11 the Stone Pony in Asbury Park NJ?
No in LA. There were many clubs named Stone Pony and are pretty much dead and gone now, but none as famous as the original. Thanks for watching!
@@stevelongmusic880 👍
Mick is king!
Agreed! Thanks for watching!
There is no Motley Crew without Mick Mars.
100%! Thanks for watching!
One thing's for sure, Crue won't get any better without Mick. John 5 is an excellent guitarist, but Crue is just not the same without Mick, and honestly, they were on a steep decline for years. But they never could have made it without Mick's amazing guitar craftsmanship. I had a strong understanding of where the guitar sits in a mix, harmony, song structure. The whole deal.
Agreed! Thanks for watching!
No disrespect it’s just a different way for me to look at it. Now I have a few.… When I hear the song, Jack and Diane by John Cougar menstrual cramp, I think of the 16-year-old couple I was in high school with that were sharing a third trimester pregnancy in the ninth grade. They kept the baby and went on to do great things… I think you’re environment greatly interprets what you hear in a song. There’s no disagreement… Just the way different people can absorb things. I like where your career is going Tommy Lee and Mr. Maher. Great things to come, gentlemen.
LOL @ John Cougar Menstrual Cramp
Seconal is a barbiturate. It's a tranquilizer, not a painkiller, even though, ut probably does help with pain lol.
You are incorrect about Corabi singing on Generation Swine…Mick loved playing on the self titled album MOTLEY CRUE where Corabi was the singer…Mick hated playing on the Generation Swine album bc of the producer. SWINE IS HORRIBLE
Yeah, I messed that up, and agree with you on Swine. Thanks for watching!
One can only hope...
Thx for watching!
Vince sang on Generation Swine. Corabi sang on the Motley Crue album. One fact you got completely wrong
The original guitar player, dang that still catches me off guard .I truly like John , The man is great just wish he wasn't in the middle , great bank I'm sure ,cant hate on that just kinda makes me wonder if he may of sharpened that knife for Nikki before he stuck it in Micks back, hate to think he would .
Musically Mick and Tommy carried that band. Good solid guitar playing with Tommy, for all his ridiculousness, is a great drummer.
Oh yeah, agreed. Thanks for watching!
I don’t like Motley Crue that much but I really like micks riffs, and mick is the only member I respect, as hes the only one who isn’t a completely horrible person
Yeah, agree with ya! Thanks for watching!
I’m not a gynecologist… But I’ll be glad to take a look at it…
Generation swine was the album after Vince returned to the band, the album featuring john corabi was simply titled motley Crue
Yeah I messed that up. Thanks for watching!
G'n'r was the the dangerous band . Motley Crue was the bad boys of rocking roll..
When Mick left the music group, they lost the right to that prefix- music.
I like The other side of Mars!
Why the hell would you say the Album Corabi did was Generation Swine? That was Vince. Corabi sang on the beat Album they ever did. Motley Crue Motley Crue.
Yeah, I made a mistake, he was on the Motley Crue album, Vince was back for Generation Swine. Sorry about that and thanks for watching!
@stevelongmusic880 I saw Corabi and the Scream open up for the Bullet Boys. He was AMAZING LIVE! Then a few months later Motley Announced him as the new singer. I saw them live and it was one of the best sounding concerts I've ever been to. I love the self titled album. To me it doesn't sound dated even today. And I think we would have gotten 5 to 10 more great albums with them had they stuck with him.
Wow...basically - 'Mötley Crüe' is Baptist-'Metal'! (Thank you - Reverend Bob!) 🙏⛪🎸
Motley Crue's name should have been Mick Mars and crew
Viva La Mars 🤘
Right on brother! Thanks for watching!
I would love to watch this, but staring at one guy staring back into a camera without band clips, can't do it.
We took this trip to garden grove
It smelled like mick mars inside the van...
Oh yea
Iykyk
Your information is wrong on Vinces departure.. John Corabi was on the self titled Motley Cue album with the si gle Hooligans Holiday. after poor rdcird and concert ticket sales Cirabi was let go and Vince returned to record Generation Swine
What did I get wrong on Vince's departure, I said either left of was fired so that kinda covers it :) You are right, I was incorrect on Generation Swine. I messed that up. Thanks for watching!
Also the name motley crue came from the studio techs. As they walked in (all 4 members) they were known as Christmas. This is where the name was born. Don't they look like a mottley crew.
Jon Corabi was on the Motley Crue self-titled album. Not Generation Swine.
Yep I messed up. Thanks for watching!
john wasnt on generation swine he was on the self titled. GS was the return of vince
Mars made motlee. Mick is the greatest!!
Totally agree! Thanks for watching!
The Corabi album was the self titled 94 release. Although Generation Swine was written with Corabi, they decided to bring back Vince and record/release it. The album sucked but had a couple decent songs.
Yea I messed that up, thanks for watching!
Death of Crue? Apparently not - they're having one of the most successful tours of all time w/John 5 on guitar as of this Summer 2024🤔
I hope they do well, it's just not the same, but John 5 is awesome. Thanks for watching!
Without Mick they are Motley Piss.
Can't play without backing tracks.
Vince sounds worse than John Bon Jovi. I hope too see Mick on tour.
I definitely would try to see Mick if he does any live stuff! Thanks for watching!
Mötley without Mick; Not Mötley.
Mick put some awesome riffs behind Nikki's songs. But they were Nikki's songs. Nikki is The Man behind Motley crue. Like it or not those are facts.
Not arguing that Nikki was part of it. In my opinion they lost their magic when they started cutting Mick out of the writing process, so that's where I'm coming from. I will say I loved Sixx AM. Thanks for watching!
Nikki had the dream and songs, but Mick had the hunger. Everyone knows that no one person writes a song start to finish without the band having their say so.
I do see the group effort being part of it here and everything going through a filtering process of song writer, band, producer and label.
Have you ever heard Niggy Sixx play a bass solo or anything of the sort? Me either
That's true, I haven't either. Thanks for watching!
john 5 is dragging the rotten corpse of motley crue
Yeah, still waiting to see if he can bring it back to life or not. Thanks for watching!
❤🔥
Thanks for watching!
@@stevelongmusic880 🙏
Motley Crue was the death of Motley Crue.
I think you are right. Thanks for watching!
ON PACE
Thx for watching!
I’ve been a huge Mötley fan since shout at the devil and it hurts me to see and hear vince just being horrible live. I mean I don’t expect any singer to be perfect live but it’s obvious that Vince doesn’t put in the work. He’s lazy all the way around and I come from a work hard family. So to see Vince being a millionaire and has the resources to be better and not caring enough to go out and be the best version of himself just sucks. And by him being that way it’s a reflection on the other guys
