I would like to see Ulrich use his white Strat for this tour. As cool as he has got the effects going with the sky guitar I feel it would sound more like what I believe the scorpions fans want to hear. The way it sounded in 1977.... that would be really cool
A lot of it was the amp. He called it the beast. I saw many of the greats. But when I saw Uli in 85 I walked out into the street across from Wrigley Field in Chicago and people were talking and cars were going by and I heard nothing. I was on the 2nd floor and was lucky to have the wall to lean on and the sound waves came directly at us. I heard a whoosh and cymbal clang until noon the next day and slowly got my hearing back. But it was the amp and it was crystal clear. Hiroshima sounded like the LP except better right from the start where it sounds like an old planes propeller winding up Amazing. In 2004 he did Vivaldi and it was just him and that was mind-blowing as well but different. He grew.
Uli Jon Roth was the master of whammy bar effect in the seventies and he is still the master as we have been seen in that video from 2017 and he's far from being young, i was lucky to see Uli live as a guest of the mighty Scorpions, 40 years after he left Scorpions and he is as good as ever, this man is phenomenal, thanks Tim for sharing and God bless the unbelievable Uli Jon Roth.
I've seen yngwie malmsteen, Micheal Angelo, Vinnie Moore, pat Metheny, play LIVE. All of them great guitarist. Micheal Angelo was jaw dropping seeing live at waters club san Pedro 1987. And Vinnie moore in 93? I've seen yngwie more than once long ago during eighties. Uli Roth never played my area until 2008 (under dark sky tour?) You must see uli jon Roth live to understand (live recordings on TH-cam don't justify uli Roth's playing. Uli Roth had young guitarist playing everything uli played in dual harmonies. But the music was german complex ugly key changes nonstop shredding over intense key changes. It was powerful. I'll never forget, Everything uli played was orchestrated (Jason Becker masterpiece 'air' orchestrated duel harmonies non stop. Only strategic ugly german key changes that are terrifyingly beautiful. Uli mentioned under dark sky was more german influenced from dark German music. Tectonic thrust, shattering earth catastrophic meteorite bombardment. Aftermath dynamics rise into peace serenity. As soon as I got home from the show I got on TH-cam 'searched (under a dark sky) I listened it' wasn't the same. I seen uli Roth again 6 months later. Uli had a four piece band' with same young back up guitarist playing rhythm parts and dual harmonies on old scorpions songs everything. Burn the sky, Fly to rainbow, in search peace of mind, sun in my hand. Life's like river. And one instrumental (the last guitar instrumental song on IN TRANCE album. Uli Roth is like watching Shawn lane play 'once upon a time in the west'. Screaming beautiful melody's. Piercing the ears as ringing of the nose produces blood
@@dannyhood8857 I saw all the guitar players that you mentioned minus Pat Metheny and Michael Batio Angelo, i mentioned that i saw Uli Jon Roth live on my original comment, i saw Vinnie Moore live with his last band Ufo and i also met Vinnie in the flesh a few hours after the show, i also saw Yngwie Malmsteen, i saw like 525 live shows in real life but i guess that i can't see them all, some guitar players are already dead and some never came to my country, i wish you well!
There may be better technicians, but this man is my favorite musician. He plays keyboards very very well, plays bonafide classical guitar, composes symphonies and piano etudes. And he plays so passionately.
@@12floz67 Child Of The Novelty was my 1st album , Saw Frank 3 times. Guit War left us speechless at Santa Monica civic, probably took a minute before we applauded
@@ruiplas he could have if he didn’t die. What I mean is not that Uli is not a good player. In fact I think he is the greatest guitarist alive today. Only thing I am saying is that his techniques are not original but heavily influenced by Hendrix. I don’t think he would be the kind of player he is without having seen and influenced by Hendrix. He is probably even better than Hendrix. Only thing is that he got his guitar playing ideas from Hendrix. He even admits it. If he came up with his style without having seen Hendrix; then he would have been even more famous than Hendrix.
@@i5150v1 it maybe, every guitar player have own effect.. but for this sound concept its for 700000 ton metal . maybe the sound just like that.. 😂, i just more like he with fender ...
Awhile ago, Hate to say it but about same age,Carlost. The sustain is here.whammytotalfeedbsck control some of his scorpscwork , best I ever heard from a musician. One more. his harmoniesmakemaidenget smoked for lunch.
A lot of awful comments on this. Some people just don’t understand that this is the END of Fly to the Rainbow, and he’s ALWAYS went crazy with the whammy bar at the end. Rock on Uli.
This is why you get compared to Hendrix. Too much whammy noise. It's not good for your career. Killed Frank Marino too. Even though they are both better players, once you do down the feedback road, you will lose in comparison. This is why I always admired Schenker. He never bothers with any of this shit. He plays a six string, no effects, no whammy, just actual playing. Uli can play that way too, but still likes to pretend he's Hendrix sometimes, which is unfortunate.
Whammy bar is good Kk downing, Trey ... Uli. You get nasty atmospheres Love schencker , but there s abstract and gutty taking that Schencker doesnt ...
Absolutely agree, Uli is amazing but unfortunately I've never seen him as a 100% original, he's always lived all of his life (musically and personally) under that overwhelming Hendrix shadow and either in Scorpions or solo career everytime he started playing I hear Hendrix first, later him.. On the other hand Michael Schenker is outrageously outstanding, he found his own unmistakable tone and style early in his teens and grew up with it throughout the decades. No over the top whammy bar shit or nonsense fretboard masturbstions, no tons of effects required , just his guitar, a cry baby, a 50 amps and the magic at his fingertips, godlike tone, vibrato and a completely unorthodox chosen of notes for his solos.. He's truly one of a kind..
Do I love him and Scorpians music? Of course. But stuff like this is like Eddie Van Halen live stuff....it's nothing impressive whatsoever to people who play guitar, really. It's simple tricks to wow people who do not play guitar. It's more just genuinely saddening to see iconic guitar players dazzling people with basically doing nothing, besides pressing on a tremelo bar. -_-
Ya know what a GOOD FRIEND would do ? Tell you how much YOUR Hairdo resembles BEN FRANKLINS’ HAIRDO !! Nothing like looking like a Creepy Old Man and NOT having ONE good enough friend to tell you so …..
In Him Jimi lives!... & He inspired the School of Yngwie. Ulrich is my absolute favourite axe hero. Thanx

"Yngwie, I AM your father...."
Uli was one of the founding fathers of neo-classical rock music
So...?
@@matiprofe3634Loser alway say So
Channeling his adoration of Jimi. I love it.
One can see the amount of focus Uli plays with in every note nothing with him is with thought and approach amazing
i wish he could have taken scorpions to the top but he wasnt the man for it but he was for himself
There may be better technicians, but this man is my favorite musician. He plays keyboards very very well, plays bonafide classical guitar, composes symphonies and piano etudes. And he plays so passionately.
This guy is the greatest guitarist ever!
One of the Goats 🐐
This is fantastic❤
Sim...excelente guitarrista totalmente subestimado toca muito sempre...
Grande gigante Uli...🤘🙏
o melhor de todos os guitarristas do scorpions
Greatest guitarist ever!
I agree with you, however, he came at the wrong time. Had he came in the sixties, rather than the seventies, he would have been more respected,
Better than Vai, Satriani, Van Halen, Blackmore...?
@@matiprofe3634 way better than all of them!
Awesome !!!!
The germany Hendrix.This solo is the TRUE METAL!No mercy!Simply genial.
My brain is on fire and my ears are bleeding......I love it
Literally I have chills!
CHEGOU, GRITOU. UMA EXPLOSÃO DE SOM.
Uli has a magic touch about solos
Uli loves that whammy bar. Amazing sounds.
So...?
Uli Jon Roth es un guitarrista fenomenal... Pero lamentablemente ha sido subestimado!!!
Comme michael schenker
Listening to this I can see why.
Igual ke buckedhead
It's not just noise - few players alive today can make their guitar do anything like this!
Lol
Frank Marino on Guit War i saw live, is only one who can come close to this
@@stefancolwell63
I was just going to suggest the mahogany rush live album 🍻

Genio ..
Uli is.. great
Incredible
His spirit is sailing with the sound with in.
Hear some Tokyo Tapes solo here. Uli 🙌🙏💪❤️.
Just fabulous
Great guitar 🎸👍
The feathers on his guitar are cool
Awesome jimi hendrix vibes
So awesome!!!!
All have been already done by Hendrix. That’s why Uli is under rated as an guitarist
U should check uli’s “ cast away your chains “ solo, see if Hendrix had already done that

My good it's Magic !
Scorpions guitarist ever.
Roth..... maestro...!!!
Wow mind blowing!!
Sustain for ever.
Actually, this guy is a better player than he shows here. Too much whammy and harmonics bores me. He is really an awesome guitar player.
🏆
i think he directly to Amp, no effect or multieffect.. thats his pricipe
Too much whammy?
You know this is Uli, right?
@@wakdanbarrakuda correct me if I’m wrong but I think his guitar has some built in effects.
@@i5150v1 it maybe, every guitar player have own effect.. but for this sound concept its for 700000 ton metal . maybe the sound just like that.. 😂, i just more like he with fender ...
Uli awesome!!!!
Wow... the sustain... god level
Car lost
Rock legend.... The real sting!
Electric guitar, such a thing... What he can make with all those knobs?
I like his sound WAY MORE with the marshalls, than with the blackstar amps
Black star have American and British sound bro. So you will have option.
The sustain, my god !!!!
Made it play for him his way
Master level achieved.
Awhile ago, Hate to say it but about same age,Carlost. The sustain is here.whammytotalfeedbsck control some of his scorpscwork , best I ever heard from a musician. One more.

nice solo, unique
He looks like The Gandalf of Guitar. Uli is channeling Jimi through his axe.
So much Hendrix in there
He has no influence from cobain,Kurt couldn’t even play lead guitar,hilarious
@@tommilitello198 feedback doesn’t take sides
Lou Reed too
@God Love Cobain? Lol
So much garage band in there…
WOW.
Espectacular!
Superfave
wow
A lot of awful comments on this. Some people just don’t understand that this is the END of Fly to the Rainbow, and he’s ALWAYS went crazy with the whammy bar at the end. Rock on Uli.
super
Uli Van Roth
good...............................................
That’s how you communicate to Aliens 👽!!
wunderbar
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
The ghost of Christmas past
And yes that's exactly how to use a whammy bar
sounds like hes got a sustainiac pickup on that guitar
Exactly! The Fernandez sustainiac"pick ups.
ดีมาก,well.แม่มุก,แมน,วา,เทพใหม่.ไทยแลนด์....
The problem with shred is that it lacks any existential depth. Uli is the opposite of shred here: he reaches the very bedrock of existentiality.
you may be right, but listen to Bernth-Elevation-one of the best guitar albums ever!
@@phitoman6964 I'll give it a go - thanks!
After all that feedback and sustain, it's time to jump into Sails of Charon
👍
some nice dentist drills in there

I think he does a little bit better than Hendrix
@@lifeisnice23 he also kinda did the neoclassical stuff too. Didn’t hear Hendrix do that
Sounds like a chainsaw in heat!
Sounds like tokyo tapes
WOW. I’m speechless. That was the greatest worst guitar playing I’ve ever seen
Agree, not ear candy. But at the time, something to behold for some.
Now this is the way Jimmi Hendrix meant to do it.
Well he's not short of frets anyway
Sounds like my 6 year old!
Seven sun yuo
the bginning sounds like manowar
Manowar sounds like 70's scorpions
Nah , it simpky sounded like shit
Noise
The universe in one
Zio tibia
Funk!thee best !!!!dont worry about giving me a chance of listening already heard better.
His poor amplifiers. Roth is indeed awesome however I prefer the strat tone. This guitar is kind of shrill
Eks scorpion
Hmm 😒
Sho nuff, dobidei do dah
That’s because he’s high
Rocky Mountain High
Uli took lessons from Kerry King 😅
BS......... this is 100k tons of METAL

About the martians or landing?
He's better on Fender Stratocaster..

Sounds a little flat.

Что то ужасное 🎸👍

meh
Too much bending. I wanted some shred.
then listen to his actual recordings rather than watching a TH-cam video that captured the end of a song
