I have watched this video at least six times, gets better every time. These guys are extremely good performers, not just good players. Come Again is a prime example of using group dynamics to achieve a strong performance. The way it builds during the solo, then they dial it back for the last verse and chorus, and those percussive triplets! Seen them live twice now, and would go again in a heartbeat. I never thought that fat sound they have would come across live, but man, it does.
I can never understand why Big Wreck aren't global superstars, they have everything you could ever ask for in a rock band, they play tightly as a unit, they have some really catchy tunes, and they have a phenomenal vocalist in Ian Thornley.
No style, no edge.
@@alexgrantham4747 They're not mainstream taste - FUCK mainstream, their loss.
They are in My Book 🙌🏻🎸❤️
@@glenholmgren1218 seriously though... FUCK mainstream... Their loss for real
Just blessed I came across them years ago… unforgettable
Ian is one of the most talented individuals in modern music. Hands down.
This guy. Ian Thornley. This guy… there are few around like him. I was privileged to have seen Big Wreck play this past Saturday, Ian about 15-feet from me the entire time. Won’t ever forget it or them. Can’t wait for the next opportunity. It can’t come soon enough. Bless them all and keep ‘em safe and playing into the distant future. For all of us.
I still say it's a crime that these guys aren't more recognized as one
of the greatest in the game of Rock and Ian Thornley as one of the
greatest guitarists/singers/songwriters of all time. Chills every time I
hear their stuff. That last solo is freakin' mind blowing.
Jared Ward and that they lost the best rock Juno to the Arkells is criminal.
I agree ! 100% !
amen, its sickening.
What you are saying is totally true. The problem is that the songs are way too good for radio. The general population can't wrap their minds around this. It's too intricate and requires an attention span that most people do not have these days. So instead, we have crappy formulaic four chord pop songs that are a flash in the pan. Big Wreck will eventually get their accolades, but it will take time (forever) because they are going about it honestly. Thank you Big Wreck for all that you do!
I completely agree, ... the same goes for Steven Wilson's music. The mainstream simply ca't handle it.
The slide solo in Overemphasizing is absolutely jaw dropping. So clean man.
Can you imagine being able to write songs like this, then being able to sing like this, then being able to play guitar like this. I would feel like a God if I could do one of these things as well as Ian Thornley. WOW!
Hes literally the most talented musician on earth imho.....
Yep. Most talented songwriter and guitarist currently alive on earth. If that's even where we live anyway.
And with all this talent, he’s also pretty humble
rest in peace Brian. Thanks for your music
Wtf! I’ve been listening to BW forever and it’s the first time the algorithm brought me here!!! This is some epic shit. Eargasmic playing, boys. 🤟🏼
This should have 46 million views! must underrated band in the world IMO!! I wish they toured the us more
Awesome band! My brother opened up for them several times as Rikers, love Ian Thornley, took a pic out back of their trailer, him and my sister together, seen them many times, keep rocking! Cheers
"Overemphasizing" reminds me so much of Porcupine Trees "Anesthetize". Big Wreck has got to be the greatest band nobody knows about. Just WOW!
I don't even remember what I was doing before I started watching this. Day made!!
That has to be one of the top 3 slide guitar solos of all history, that tone is INSANE!!!!
Watch "Under the Lighthouse" Live from Suhr Factory 2016. Ian is awesome
yes. Just wow.
He's a ... He's just so inspiring..
I completely agree. His method on slide is waaaaaayyyyy too underrecognised. It's a bloody shame these guys aren't more widely known.
i've always said if you punched that solo from overemphasizing and slipped it into Pink Floyd's Hey You, the uber popular David Gilmour would have this ranked as one of his greatest and it would be in all the magazines of one of the greatest solos of all time. Instead, because it was created and performed by the criminally under recognized Ian Thornley, it's not even known by anybody but fans of his.
the guitar solo on Come Again from 21:23-24:20 is what life dreams are made of. This is A+ level stuff!
It's mind blowing!
#facts . It's like Ian kinda just finds what he likes and then REALLY starts feeling it
Let's take a moment to recognize the absolutely moody and precise rhythm guitar work from Paulo and Brian under the blistering solo.... These guys are incredible
Overemphasizing gave me shades of that Alice in chains with a bluesy twist I'm in love
Everytime I listen to 'overemphasizing' I feel my blood boil :-) it's amazing..
I love the guitar solo in this because it seems to me a kind of soul scream... it's my favourite song!
How you could say "Nah I'll pass" to a Big Wreck show for $40 in an intimate venue is absolutely beyond me! THIS good live :D
That’s one lucky guitar!
March 25 2022 Sydney Vancouver Island can’t wait. This will be the fourth time I’ve seen these guys Calgary Alberta red deer Alberta again in Calgary and now Vancouver island!!!!!!
Savor it my brother 🔥🔥🔥✊🏼
Nice to see Dunlop giving this band some love! Great session. Also nice to see Paulo giving Godin guitars some loving too. Great Canadian guitars!
My first exposure to Big Wreck was the Ian Thornley interview at Anderton's. I watched it because the title was "A Must Watch For Guitar Fans". The Captain at the end said something like, "do yourself a favor and listen to 'Ghosts'". I queued it up on youtube and halfway through "I Digress" ordered the record from Amazon on CD. While listening to the rest of the "Ghosts" LP I hit the interwebs for some reviews of the album; I read a bunch of 5-star reviews before I got to one that was maybe 3-out-of-5 stars. The guy who gave it 3 stars said, "It's a great Big Wreck record, but it's not as good as 'Albatross'" - so I ordered "Albatross" too! These are now two of my favorite albums. So much musicianship in the performances, creativity in the production, and expertise in the engineering. Hell, the sound of the mutipasses on the master alone is worth the price of the record - both records are master classes in every aspect of recording. Listening to Big Wreck is like listening to The Beatles - you're always discovering another layer, another texture, another subtlety.

Jason Vanzant Don't stop there...go all the way back to their first record "In Loving Memory". Classic album. Great songs, tones and killer playing.
Awesome ... Yes I discovered them about 2 years ago... bought every Thornley and Big Wreck album... My favourite band ! Every Album is excellent
I first heard of Big Wreck after I heard the first Thornley album. That was on repeat as long as I can remember. I look up when the next album would come out and found out about Big Wreck. I now own all of their records. Its the only I have been listening to for quite some time. Albatross and Ghosts are my favorites though in the Big Wreck genre.
Jason, you need to check out Thornley.
Both good records. But not as good as In Loving Memory...
;-)
Overemphasizing!!! Ironic how no one ever over emphasized on that masterpiece!! Thanks to big wreck for all these wonderfull years of pure emotional songs!!
Such a pleasure to see this unit do what it does. Ian really reaches that zen connection to the muse in that last solo.
Wow....what a slide solo......and what a great performance by all.
Just incredible. Amazing band. Pray I get to see them live one day
Overemphasizing with the latest lineup was gold enough...but the solo at the end of Come Again? Come ON!!!! If the world hasn't figured out this band is the shit then there is no hope. :P GO BIG WRECK!!!

but whoooooooo is the sound guy?!?!? give that guy a raise!!! man what a soothing mix on this live performance!!
the tone of Ian's guitar in Skybunk. Jesus. A master who deserves far more recognition.
Wow this sound. It's what the character in 2112 sounds like after playing every day for 30 years
No one plays slide like Sir Thornley! Amazing musicians...all of them!
Love this...7 years ago my son came into this world...We named him Jaymes Thornley in honor if this incredible man...❤
Come visit!

I named my son Ian. This man was a huge reason why. lol
Love these guys. They're way too good, man.
Who the hell can sing like that AND play guitar like that. WTH it gives me chills.
Been waiting years for another live version of Overemphasizing......thanks for the satisfaction!!
I know, right???? Gave me chills!!!
Such a great underrated tune and what a way to end a album. Still love it to this day and the cover graces my Facebook cover photo.
Yes man... I was going to write the same thing... amazing tune
there was one from the snow____1998. its distorted but you can still feel it.
kudos to the drummer for keeping the original drummer's vibe on the first song. that's not fucking easy shit, bro. FIST PUMP
God hes so good
Awesome. More Big Wreck, especially in America. More.
that slide solo!
An illusive weird thing is listening to Big Wreck. The music and lyrics come easy. As though breathing. Effortlessly.
"Come Again" .. the perfect punctuation ! Best wishes with the new album and looking forward to seeing Big Wreck on tour soon.
Big Wreck became my favourite band since I've heard the first guitar sound of "a place to call home"

Spread the word, Buk! ;)
Feedback is a musical instrument!
I love big wreck. Great tunes. Talented guys.
21:23 that has to be the most epic solo I've ever heard. Simply amazing!
Owen C Wow, just wow! I hear shades of Santana and Jimmy Page throughout this solo. My lord this is incredibly moving guitar work!
LOL how many solos have you heard?
The solo on Overemphasizing puts goose bumps on me still today.
Now now, Ian, you're just showing off. Please keep going.
Glad this song is making a comeback in the set list. In loving memory is a classic record.
Prayer, waste, oh my, man what an album
THAT was just about the best thing I've ever watched!
Not being hugely popular is what keeps them so great
Holy Crap.... That last solo floored me!
Come visit!

That Lindsay Buckingham homage from 23:40 - 24:00!!
me too ..those hybrid picking runs ..wtf !! he sounds metal eastern bluesy jazzy all at the same time
Jason Vanzant did you know Ian and the boys covered Fleetwood Mac's 'The Chain' live?
21:45 - very understated, but perfect bass tone. This is striking on good headphones.
Effin right on that... just totally grabs the song in its huge arms
Dave is low key one of the best bassists around with the tone to match.
These guys are just unbelievable. Been a fan since their debut when they toured with Dream Theater.
They toured with dream theatre??? Goddamn that’s like a dream concert if I’ve ever seen one
@@cameronreyno7175 Yep, this must've been BW's first ever national tour and DT had Sherinian in the band. From what I remember, they did not go down too well with the DT audience - at least not the gig I saw - who would've preferred a widdly-diddly prog opening act.
which has always seemed insane to be because the guys who want the crazy prog stuff would LOVE Big Wreck if they really listened to the songs. They have an uncanny ability to make the very complicated sound simple.
EPIC Tone! EPIC Band! Overemphasizing rocks! Goosebumps! that is all... Carry on!
Remember seeing Ian Thornley/Big Wreck at Caps in Humber College while I was attending. Was and still a fan. Great talent!
My very favorite Ian song! Awesome.
Tricky time signature at the intro to Skybunk Marche. Well done gents!
Most underrated band in history they have been a huge influence on me and my music long live Big Wreck!!!
I hear a lot of Steve Morse in his playing. Love Ian!
Fuckin crazy tone Ian...wtf
Brilliant
The solo's in Skymarch OMG...Ian is just ripping it up. These guys should be so huge, all of them are super talented.
Great band
Got their 1st cd and was "blown wide open" 😅
one of those times where there is not a single "dislike" !
10 angry thumbs did it to spite you.
Absolute monster!
Finally getting some recognition
overemphasizing brings me back to being a teen. I never knew anyone who was into big wreck, but they made an impact on me for sure. So much feels.
Come meet some people into Big Wreck!
facebook.com/groups/BigWreck/
Wow... i thought that for slide guitar Johnny Winter and Derek Trucks were THE MEN... and they are ! But so is Ian !
Sounds amazing!! should've recorded a whole live, 12+ song session and released it.
Come again. I will. A lot
i wish people who dont play guitar could understand how RIDICULOUS their tone is or how INSANELY good Ian is!
they should do a "SOUNDGARDEN", "BIG WRECK", super group, that would sound amazing!!
Thank you for this. I’m blown away.
Ian Thornley = The best guitar tone and sounds ive ever witnessed, unbelievable band
Under the Lighthouse just does it for me!!!! As well as the rest, of course!!!!
Ian is an extremely humble & a great guitar player - songwriter !...
I'm loving your journey too Ian. Never stop.
Sounded incredible in Philly last night... So glad I got to see them..
Man I love those guitar tones! I hope they play 'Overemphasizing' on their next tour!
Underrated as fuck!
Always have loved this band and extremely happy for my old high school bud Paulo Neta! Keep rockin bro!!!!
My fav new tune, seen Ian and the band do this song for us in VIP on Sunday in PEI. 10 of us heard our own private show ! Skybunk Marche is amazing !
Pleasure and the Greed had a big impact on me... Love this band, love the video, can't wait to see you guys in February 2017 (Saskatoon!)
best band in canada. these guys bring it. can't wait foryou guys in etown this week
What a wicked tone!

Oh My........Oh My. Thank God for Ian Thornley!!!
Please come to Australia!!!
Beautiful phrasing and tones. Always inspiring.
Shit shit shit! I knew it wasn't gonna be long til they did Skybunk live. Whoa!
24:07 Bends his guitar neck forward dropping pitch while sliding up neck, the subtle best part of this song.
This version of Come Again is the pinnacle of awesome.

Big Wreck live Dunlop session!
th-cam.com/video/ugxWAjbNKJs/w-d-xo.html
Killing it!!
Not even a Big Wreck song but these guys totally crucify it on stage. Mind blowingly awesome.
Are you referring to Overemphasizing? That's definitely a BW song.
If you're talking about come again, that was also done by Ian Thornley during Big Wreck's decade long break, so it makes sense that the band slays it.
seeing them live for the first time tonight!!!!
Welcome to a Better Version of reality
And the HAIR stands on end!
Just hearing this band for the first time in this video, I'm digging them! Also just wanna say, really nice production with these Dunlop Sessions, good work!
Oh man. You have a lot to catch up on! Prepare for your world to change!
I envy you. I'd love to rediscover BW. They're just so good.
Underrated is an understatement.
If I'm honest, I checked out some of their other stuff and I didn't like it as much as this video, they get quite pop, which is cool, just not my thing. I prefer the lead guy doing his solo thing, he's kind of a similar style player to myself, so I'm bound to like it!
Ben Fletcher Then you need to get the ALBUMS. He solos in long masterpiece songs on every album.
If you don't know this guy you are missing out on a God. Check out ghosts.
20+ years later Overemphasizing still blows my mind!
I’ve been fortunate to be able to see “Big Wreck” & Ian Thornley’s side project band called,”Thornley” in London,Ontario & Windsor,Ontario down on the river front of the Windsor/Detroit River. Both of Ian’s bands are nothing short of amazing both musically & vocally!!
OMG! Wow
I would be so content playing rhythm behind Ian Thornley.
