I wish Vini would get the recognition he deserves. At least John Frusciante acknowledged his greatness.
I have been so beholden to the greatness of Johnny Mar. And it wasn’t until this morning that I bothered to consider the guitar greatness of the Morrissey musicians involved in the solo stuff. And took a hard to listen to the greatness of Vinny Riley. He is one of my new guitar hero’s.
@@bryonguernsey9794 His playing on Late Night Maudlin Street is one of my faves
Genius. That live version of Missing Boy on TH-cam is unbelievable.
I have very much respect for this man, he is just as good a musician as Johnny Marr, definitely one of the best guitarist in world.Its very sad he is not recognized for his work.
Vini and Marr are like apples and oranges. I believe they would both agree. Vini and Marr are "fookin" geniuses. They both play their own style like no other. It is not a matter of who you like the best. I love them both. Both are underrated geniuses IMO. I don't like Manc's but when I do it is Factory Artist. Just kidding a bit.....Liverpool fan rant. Please forgive.
Vinny did very good work with Morrissey, Johnny Marr was first and masterful but both their work is essential to us admirers.
Morrissey was in Vini's band before the Smiths and before Moz's solo career. Other artist from that band went on to the Cult and Simply Red.
I think it depends on what you mean by a 'guitarist'. Marr's definitely better [or was] than Vini at writing catchy and melodic songs as Vini himself says in this interview, but I think even Marr would agree that Vini is a technically superior guitarist.
Reilly can play anything from rock and roll to classical and everything inbetween, he really is one of the greatest guitar players ever to come out of Manchester. Apart from the songs on Viva Hate, he's never really written anything that's likely to trouble the charts though. I love them both equally, for different reasons.
He kicks the shit out of Johnny Marr, that is why Viva Hate sold more albums than anything by The Smiths. Check out the Durutti Column LC album, it is beyond Brilliant, especially for 1981
A lovely man, amazing guitar player and it breaks my heart that he’s had such bad health problems in recent years.
I wish they'd do an interview series like this about Vini's own life & work
Vini is one of the most underrated guitarists of his generation. The levels he reaches at times are just beautiful.
I recently fell into his web of music and I'm awestruck.
The only man who could step in and take over from mr Marr, if only Morrissey would have kept him close I would have still been buying his music. Vini your a gentleman and a wonderful guitarist, after years of listening to viva hate I now realise why its so good!
I know Street in Morrissey didn’t write these songs so why doesn’t he get any credit ?
A beautiful, beautiful man. We used to follow The Durutti Column (and ACR) around Manchester in the late 80's / Early 90's. There seemed to be a gig on every other week.
The genius of Viva Hate and one of my favorite guitar players.
@Macavity If Morrissey wasn’t such a ponce, he’d write Vini a nice thank you note and a fat check.
what a lovely guy
YES HE IS
The track "otis" brought me here. Pure genius!
I'm in love with The Supremes. x
That hair is everything.
It is almost like he has two heads of hair lol
This was exactly my first experience with the Smiths "where did this come from?"
And then eventually I accepted them
Good interview.
Genius!!
I first saw him at a pub called the oaks with a crazy guy called norman gammer his guitar blew me away
I like it that Morissey didn't fit in, and he wore a long raincoat
He's a great guitarist, hope he's doing OK
For some reason I feel the need to watch Scooby Doo after this.
BEST COMMENT EVER LLMAOO
Two idiots
Fuck off!
It's all very good. We all love Johnny
I wonder if Johnny Marr gets all of Vinnie's old wigs and just has them trimmed up a bit....
There is only one wig. It is shared between Vini, Johnny Marr and John Squire. Without the magical powers that this wig bestows upon the wearer, none of these men can play a single note. Rumour has it that Tony Wilson once tried to sign this wig to Factory Records.
@@vintagegibbon The only thing better than a reply to a one year old post is a reply that made me laugh! Thanks!
how the heck did he maintane a haircut like that? im 61 and mine started to fall out when i was 17 lol
apparently lots of famous men start taking finasteride usually in their 20s ..just started on it recently myself it's meant to stop your hair falling out haha not sure why it's not more common in everyday men as it's only about £13 a month to take - not much more than a standard prescription.
you took over selling petrol after me!mi think, hope you,re ok and Stu says hi-
DOES IT AFFECT YOU
I appreciate this man's astounding musical intellect, and I do love quite a few Durutti Column tunes.
But is there a reason why he looks like Janet Street Porter?
Gail from Corrie!
WAS IT ON THE GAS STATION ON b m rOAD WHERE THE HELLS THE q MARK?ON THIS, ,aNYWAY,i,VE FORGOTTEN NOW,BUT THE NOSEBLEEDS WERE SHITE,AND I PAID 4QUID TO WATCH THAT PISSIN MATCH
Gas Station?! Barlow Moor Rd GAS STATION!?
@@silverapples75 where Colfix used to be - now an apartment block on Barlow Moor Rd between Claremont Grove and Hesketh Avenue - used to be a little garage and also second hand cars and above that a workshop that made car trailers
@@miketaylor803 Yeah, petrol station.
It looks like he puts on his hair like a helmet in the mornings.
Keeps it on a nightstand
hey where is scooby doo, shaggy?
I could write the most amazing guitar solo ever to Blowin’ In The Wind, and it would still be Bob Dylan’s song. It doesn’t matter that the original is a 3 chord folk song. You didn’t write the songs on viva hate and now you want to claim authorship because the rest of your career is forgotten. Naming your band Darutti Column was career suicide. Dwell on that
change your hairdo man! :)
Gasparuccio X Why?
Mark Lines just kiddin' i don't mind really...just looks a bit like a wig , that's it
I'd consider removing your comment.
Another lookist....We all age and some of us like to have our own style.
Change your mind fucker
