His lead was matched this night only by the great Leslie West. My favorite Steve Hunter lead is the intro to Sweet Jane on Rock and Roll Animal. God damn he could lay it down.
Blessings upon whoever posted this, those who KNOW, KNOW, Steve "THE DEACON" Hunter is simply one of the best of all time, he's worked with the "who's who" of modern music, and there's a REASON why! I consider myself lucky to have seen him back in the day, this is a fine illustration as to WHY he's held in such high regard! Thanks again from all true music fans for posting this. Oh, and a shout out to Peter Haycock from the Climax Blues Band also on this, I saw them open for RAINBOW on the "Rising" tour at the Starlight Ampitheatre in Burbank, California, and Climax Blues Band was one great opening act that night!
You know .. lou reed live .. black &white cover , lou sunglasses and slough cap , stars and collar .... is the second part of the rock n roll animal concerts ... only differance is they changed side of speakers each comes out from ... so r n r animal & lou reed live are a 2 set of those concerts ...
Hi Alan, just seen your comment. I have a DVD copy and yes, the VHS. Not sure where in the world you are but the DVD is commercially available?? Here in the UK
I was going to upload it just now but I see someone already uploaded it about a year after you made this comment. It's one of those things that absolutely must be able to be viewed by everyone. th-cam.com/video/F02Umx2A1e0/w-d-xo.html
Not just Heroin, the whole album is just the best of Rock and Roll. Have in vinil,tkc and cd. Bought the album in 1976,heard here in Brazil and 20 minutes later was buying one.Envy whoever was there watching alive....in a good way
Last time I saw Steve was in 2013 with Alice Cooper, still great and the audience couldn't get enough of him. Before that is was 1977 silver screen tour with Alice Cooper.
For those Steve "Decator Gator" Hunter fans check out Mitch Ryder's Detroit lp on TH-cam. "Drink" is possibly the sweetest blues solo ever recorded by anyone and its one of Steve's best..
FUCK LOU! TRASH! I never liked HIM! Very over-rated! It was his Band members that were the real genus behind the junkie! Best song by Steve - & that's a very hard call as everything the Steve touches is beyond platinum! Lou never deserved any of the guys that made him. He's just a rock - they were the STARS!
@@timhoovermusicman I don't either, specially those who are making any sense in what they are saying. If you had some kind of education, respect,courtesy and brain which is clear you have not.

Now out of the blue comes an idiot , referring you,making sure you understand. Look with attention and you'll see the conversation is not in order,also the other part comments are not here,why?

@@markriobr sure he did not like my friend. Then you babble he is the one who not shines😂WHAT? You sounded drunk or on hard drugs... you have a friend? Surprising.do us all a favor and play in a busy street.

been studying Steve Hunter since the 70's....Great guitar player and very underrated...
Underappreciated yes. Not underrated. Same for Dick Wagner.
They were on Arrowsmith train kept a Rollin look it up
Certainly NOT underrated by musicians, recording studio personnel and Millions of fans worldwide. Steve has played on Hundreds of albums.
@@FRANKSNAKE71Heroin!!!!
@@peterbartolomeo5542 dick wagner also
Tremndous night of guitar ! steve blew me away, pete haycock awesome too , the whole show is just killer.
This tour with the best ever guitarist, is so forgotten. This is magic.
Steve Hunter with the late great Pete Haycock performing Steve's track 'The Idler' on the Night Of The Guitars Tour 1988.
one of the best guitar tandems of all time
This is magic! Sadly, our heroes are all leaving the stage but what a legacy they've left us. Thank you kindly for posting gems such as this.
This is pure magic.
Fabulous guitar sound by Steve Hunter! You can hear him on Lou Reed's Rock & Roll Animal LP too...
The Intro to Sweet Jane is epic.
@@carrrexx7190 With the Great Dick Wagner. RIP
..and Lou Reed Live and Berlin for good measure. Exceptional for sure.
Best intro ever 🤗💪

Glad to find this. Have an IRS no speak album from him on vinyl I can no longer play
Just wish there was video of them when they did rock and roll animal, would love to see it
The most underrated Guitar player in my opinion … just f…….. unreal 🎸👍🏆
My copy of Night of the Guitar I recorded on VHS in almost dead, thank god for TH-cam.
All stuff is on DVD now.

@@piprist5099 Thank you Pip, I'll get onto it and see if I can source one.
Thanks for that. I've also seen this on EBAY. Happy hunting/searching.
He and Dick Wagner are legends. Lou Reed Velvet Underground guitar Gods Heroin Sweet Jane to name two iconic masterpieces
With the Great Peter Haycock ♥️♥️♥️♥️☀️☀️☀️☀️
Two exceptional guitar players doing their thing here. So sorry to hear that Pete has passed away
Never thought I'd see a live performance of this.
This guy is so cool!
Alice Cooper's Black Widow (live 1975) brought me here but the video is no longer found here. Watching him and Dick Wagner dueling guitars was epic.
Here you go, rock on! th-cam.com/video/F02Umx2A1e0/w-d-xo.html

2:32 awesome D:
Master Hunter played along w/some of the greatest - Bowie, Gabriel, Lou Reed
Jack Bruce, Alice Cooper etc.
Pete haycock in the other guitar slot
Aivan mahtavat saundit skitoissa ✌
THE best hard rock guitar ever is Steve's playing on Heroin from Lou Reed's 1974 "Rock 'n' Roll Animal" LP. (With Dick Weber).
I prefer sweet Jane
I believe it's Dick Wagner... And together they play 'Intro' (written by Steve) /Sweet Jane. Best intro ever written and played for guitars!
Fuckin Great
It 's one of the best rock guitar records ever..... ironically Lou Reed didn't like it.. he told me.
FUCK LOU! TRASH! I never liked HIM! Very over-rated! It was his Band members that were the real genus behind the junkie! Best song by Steve - & that's a very hard call as everything the Steve touches is beyond platinum! Lou never deserved any of the guys that made him. He's just a rock - they were the STARS!
Miss the p90 sound.
Get his solo lp swept away
What a fantastic guitarist! Song from the Album "The Deacon"?
funny how steve dressed like an old man back then
Who is the other guitar?
I meant Dick Wagner - sorry!
1:03 I did not know that LADY D played the guitar
Sure he did not like my friend .After all he is the one that not shines after you listen the albun those two guys Steve and Dick steal the concert
