- iPhone video of Steve Stevens solo tour performing the track 'Atomic Playboys'.
I recorded this on 5th April 2017 at the O2 academy show.
WARNING for any parents!
Some explicit language during Steve talking near start of song.
This whole album was a masterclass in rock guitar and songwriting! I remember wearing out the vinyl I played it so much! Never got the credit they deserved. Steve has to be the most underated player on the planet, yet probably the best!
Mark Delaney True. That’s a great story about wearing out the vinyl! I had it on CD, I wore out the rewind button learning Soul On Ice 😂
Slipping into Fiction! Soul on Ice!
He is definitely one of them, I think the ultimate most underrated guitarist of all time is Vito Bratta
@@lorenzosandoval7328 First time I heard Vito was on Scotland’s ‘Rock Radio’ on the track ‘War Song’.
The song and the solo in particular was superb, technique and emotion combined. He became an influence too during that period for me along with other greats, I remember later on Steve mentioning him as a great player with ‘the sound’.
That record was badass, intense, groovy, modern, rocker and with edge, and what a singer and songs! plus Steve Steven in command!
Hello everybody , thank you for loving Steve Stevens!!!!!
Jeezus F**K I would have flown across the pond if I knew I could have seen this live.... some of my favorite music was on that album... WOMAN OF a 1,000 YEARs.
Thanx fer postin' this.
You’re welcome.
Best All rounder Guitarist on the planet!
Bigstep uk absolutely. Great song/music writer and the best album guitar tones too.
He is always on top with his sound, gear and you here something new every time he plays. He is a great Flamenco player as well and needs to be appreciated more than he is and I would put him in the top 10, of best guitarists, in the past 30 years. Thanks for the reply.
Wow the solo was clean! If you haven't heard Steve's playing on the Vince Neil exposed album definitely give it a listen
I have, it’s a fantastic guitar album with amazing guitar sounds.
I’ve got a loose cover of the ‘Can’t Have Your Cake’ song on this channel.
This was such a phenomenal show. Top 5 nights of my life.
It was a great show.
I actually recognise you from this show!
That tone. SS always rocks.
Nicest guy in the world. Super talented. Looks like a rock star and is still sharing his knowledge.
He is such a class of a guitarist.... and one of the coolest guys around... but the singer didn't do justice to this incredible song...
One of the most underrated guitar player. Love his Flamenco a go go album. Thanks.
I was going to say my wife is a singer and she sings it better than this guy! He's not bad but where are the high notes? That's what we were expecting!
@@bytorgerhold8008 male performers with those astonishing highs are rare, this guys a good singer obviously deserves to be up there it's just that often the voice is fleeting. Other problems to consider might be slight headcold, etc.
Awesome vid - thanks! I finally get to see him play the bridge arpeggios
Flash Grover cheers Flash. Some more to come too
Amazing song, amazing player.
Love this song ‼️
steve stevens is stellar , or ole !!!!!
Steve is as great of a guitar player as ever. I also tip my hat to the vocalist. Who the heck is THAT guy? A fine voice.
Frankie Perez, he is amazing. Not on this tune, because he skips the high parts. Look up Ducati All Stars - Hells Bells and Fire Woman
Awesome Steve !
awesome album..great vid..thanks
Cheers! You’re welcome :)
Tuned half step down comparing to the original,okl!!!! but anyway,nice to see him playing this song live,i guess he never played it live before. one of his very best song ever,in my humble opinion!
Thomas Vagner he has played it live before but it was around the Atomic Playboys album time 1989/1990. It was a great gig!
@@Woundstring Too bad there is no live material from that tour....
@@EVEROSFP1 there are bootleg videos about or were at one point, and Steve had an audio recording of a cover of ‘It’s a mans world’ briefly up online but I missed the chance to save it.
Great stuff.
Steve's guitar just fucking snarls....I love it
perfect description bro - amazing tone.
Very nice!
The master!
awesome!
Absolutely great music! All this nchartbreaking weeny "rock" bands of today should listen to THIS! Explicit language? Who cares!
Correct me if I am wrong, when Steve plays with Billy Idol is like his playing automatically turns magical, a guitar heaven...but I don't see that happening when Steve plays with other guys
Yeah both guys have some chemical and magic together.
0:09 I love it when people lift up their glasses in order to hear someone better 😂💀😎
😜 haha!
a real grat great awesome guitar player
Badass tune \m/
Great tone
Has anyone played one of these Jackson/Friedman guitars? I heard they are stellar like the old pre 1983 Charvels?
So killer ⚡
peter svidersky yeah it was amazing seeing him play the A.P. Songs :) dream come true...wish he played Soul On Ice and Slipping into Fiction too though.
@@Woundstring Slipping Into Fiction is an awesome sing too.
Steven is great player...guy monte.kindtoon.
Great video. Audio sounds great for an iPhone. Who's singing?
Anu Gunn singers Franky Perez...yeah iPhone mic done a surprisingly good job especially as I was almost directly in front of the amp :)
That's what i thought. I saw Franky at The Viper Room and Steve Stevens came on as guest.
It is stunning that Steve didn´t properly rehearse the solo for his signature tune. It is nonetheless amazing what he is playing, don´t get me wrong.
Steve fucking Stevens ladies and gentlemen....
Nice tone.
brooklynggreatness
broklkyng greatness
Soundwhare house music and movies was there..
Guy monte .
I don’t understand, sorry. What do you mean?
This solo on the original IS electric guitar!!!!!
I don't think so
Cool that he played it, but singer seemed to half-ass it and reading lyrics. Not a patch on Parramore McCarty's performance on the album.
Steve is brilliant. This song is brilliant. This singer however is not fit to carry Perry McCarty's mic case.
Not at all!
What happened to Andrew McArthy? Pipes
You mean Perry Mcarty? Think it was really just a brief stint way back in 1989 for the album and then subsequent tour. Doesn’t look like he and Steve kept in contact after by the looks of things. This guy is the singer on Steve’s recent-ish new band ‘Deadland Ritual’ too.
@@Woundstring He's got some serious talent. Good looking out . I'll check that new record out. Hey, thanks for that.
I have always wanted to be a radiation Romeo but things don’t seem to be going my way.
mad funny.
Steve playing a Friedman guitar?
Yeah, at the time Dave Friedman had just started working on guitars with Grover Jackson for Friedman guitars, I believe. This guitar’s not setup like Steve’s Charvel Dinky ‘Glow’ or Steve’s old Hamer SS3, with the older guitars Floyds flat on their body with down pitch only. This Friedman had a floating trem as far as I could see.
Looks like George Michael went metal on us lol
Nelly Nell Haha! I never saw it till now :)
Is that a suhr?
Jaime Loyola it's a Friedman Cali
Woundstring yeah just by chance last night I watched that namm video with that crazy german dude and Dave n grover..so recognized it then..👍
Steve Plays louder. Than thé singer?!!
He was loud, but I was right in front of Steve’s amp, so it’s only louder relative to my position, was mixed a bit better further out and centred :)
I did deliberately go to left to catch Steve’s sound better and louder though 😂
That was a great album, but Steve hated the singer.
Andrew Zenn I didn't know that. He said he was the perfect guy I thought but just didn't like the same things or something. I read Steve say he didn't get on with the producer and hated the guitar tone...ironically it's one of the best along with the Exposed Vince Neil album 🤷♂️
I played in a AC/DC, Bon era cover band with Perry in San Diego in the later 90’s and I thought he was a nice guy, seemed pretty chill and had a great voice. I only really spent time with him in rehearsal and gigs but everything was always great. I was bummed to leave the band as I moved out of State.
@@Woundstring Steve was frustrated with the vocal recording process. Too many takes, punches, etc. Beau Hill told him that he records all of his singers that way, with the exception of Jani Lane. He said he was a real singer. Steve was irritated that he could hear all of the punches & it didn't sound live. He had another guy mix it & Hill walked off the project. He lost faith in the singer. That is the gist. He was talking about it on a podcast.
@@johnsoos6907 Why is Steve listed as having lead vocals credits on every track of TheAtomicPlayboys? I think it is obvious just by watching the videos that Perry did the lead vocals and I dont hear Steve's voice on any of the tracks. Am i wrong about that? It interests me because i realised i had no clue whether or not SS can sing too. Only thing I know of is on "Josephine" and of course he shouts ReadySteadyGo!. But that is just shouting not singing.
@@atomicplaygirl66 That is the interview where I heard SS talking about recording that record. It's a great interview. Very thorough, with the exception of not mentioning his great projects with Terry Bozzio & Tony Levin. As for your question, that's a mystery. I don't hear his voice & I've never known of him singing. But check out the interview. I think you'll enjoy it.
Ya my uncle perry sounds way better singing that then that guy
Grant Michki it's a live concert remember. But yeah, back on the album your uncle Perry was amazing with his ultimate rock-metal voice. Tell him he still has many fans from that alone I'm sure he knows.
Sound of my teenage years learning to play copying Steve and trying to scream like Perry singing along sometimes too...still can't do it...think I'll try on a cover for a laugh haha!
Ya thats a bad ass song to.i still listen to all there music its some good stuff man
Your uncle had a kick ass voice and the best teeth of any rocker of the day. Probably had the ladies all over him.
This tune rock's as usual, but did not like this version....the lead singer did not convince me...
Just enjoy it for what iit is. A great freaking song! :-)
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Steve should get Billy Idol to record this tune... it's perfect for him
Lead track from his first solo record in 1989 and yes this was made for Billy, he could have easily sung it and it would have been a hit
It's too fast-paced and Metal sounding for Billy. He would never do it. Billy likes slow melodic stuff now. Soft rock and lullabies. Have you seen him lately?
@@therockman6482 hasn't been punk since the 1st Gen X album 😭😭
Love Billy Idol but Steve Stevens made Billy’s career everlasting, timeless work
Wow what a player!! Tone, technique, good songwritting, great taste in gear and note selection. One of the most all around but underrated players ever.
Vasilis Triantafyllidis I agree. Best guitar tones ever.
Yeah. I want to know too. I wonder if it is Kip Taylor (brother of KipWinger)? He was a member of TAPlayboys at one time.
You can't deny this tune rocks
🤟❤️🎸❤️🎸🤟
My favorite Steve Steven Tune!
Diony De Jesus classic. My favourite is Soul on Ice ...was hoping he'd play it but it was not to be. Slipping into fiction is fantastic too. Love them all though:)
Wow where do I start. I remember this CD and what a tune this was. This backing band is doing it justice. What freaking tone here, does anyone know what his rig set up might have been? And lastly, what guitar is that?
Tatted 1969 Hi, guitar is the Friedman Cali, amp is Steves signature SS100 amp head and 4x12 cab. Various pedals including Steves Rockaway archer boost/distortion-eq for pushing the amps overdrive for some solos etc. I was stood right in front of the amp so got the pure sound :) thanks for watching. If your interested, check out my Friedman SS100 amp demo playing Steves 'Can't have your cake'. It's an amazing amp.
Thank You so much for the info. Have to say your a lucky guy to have been right there. Always thought he was a fantastic musician. I will now be doing some homework on youtube regarding the above referenced equipment for a few days starting with your Demo of the SS100. Thank You again.
Awesome! Where is Perry?
nice riffs steve.. tone is even better than the album
WOW, really Stevie? The guitar solo? Still like yesterday... great stuffs...
Cool as it is, it really misses Perry McCarty's vocals! \m/
Sweeet! Any more vids commin' or just this one?
Arunas some more coming ;)
He doesn't have to be young to pull off that solo, still blows my mind!
It was an awesome gig, thanks for putting this up. The sound quality is fantastic.
Bruno Sebastiani you're welcome. I was surprised myself by the audio. Guess I was in the right place ;)
Grande banda 👌 agui é rock in roll
Show!!!!
Love this.
Steve is right up there with guys like Steve Vai as far as technical skill. He’s easily the best wingman to come out of te 80s
Saw him with Vince Neil open for Van Halen. and the guy does this Flamenco guitar piece that is incredible.
Awesome song. I actually saw him on the original tour.
Cool! Would have loved that. Saw a bootleg video of the New York gig.
im spechlees what a sound steve rock on steve
who was the singer?
catwomanonmars Franky Perez. They'll be on tour as Deadland Ritual in Europe around June 2019.
I thank you very much!!! He's good, but for this song I liked Perry McCarty better ;-)
Wow, what a great job. Huge PM fan but this guy did an amazing job with this song !!!!!
Did it in his own way. Was a great gig to see.
bravo Steve))
who is the singer here? he's got cool chops and took it in a totally different direction. really liked it and of course Steve was amazing.
Singer is Franky Perez. Yeah, he had a less metal sound more pop rock. Was a great gig as it was the first on the mini tour Steve did.
@@Woundstring awesome..tx for that
