It's in the jams like this you can tell they came out of the blues and jazz clubs...and Tony is doing these solo's without having the feel in his fingers...just the feel of the music in him... I bow down to that. If you know music and playing it...you have to have so much respect. The kings 🤘

VERSAO MARAVILHOSA

[@sergey_engel]

The guitar feedback you hear all the way through may sound cool but it’s a real problem. When the stage is small and you stand close to the amplifiers it howls even when you try to play clean. Tony’s on the volume knob all the time, there’s so much dynamics in this particular song - he stops, he plays clean, he gives Bill spaces to do his fills. All this is done masterfully and the listener doesn’t even know Tony is fighting a hard battle with feedback. If he was just playing his parts like he’s supposed to do everything wound sound like a freakin disaster, believe me. Hats off to Tony, I’m afraid he was not enjoying that night but delivered anyway.

Based on the studio one. They jam on that as well. 1 show some guy just shouted war pigs after each song. If it was me. I’d have loved the selection we choose. Lord of this world. And etc... anyway.
