I love how Steve and Phil’s parts make the song just pop, I remember Phil saying they never wanted to play the same guitar parts because it would sound boring.

[@LostSoulNo301281]

Any good two guitarist band should do this. Slash and Izzy always played different things that complimented each other.

[@JamieLynnMorris]

This takes me back in time to the best concert ever. Hysteria, In The Round, Atlanta, Georgia, USA 1988. Thank~You Ben! ❤️‍🔥💥❤️‍🔥💥❤️‍🔥💥❤️‍🔥💥❤️‍🔥💥

[@medhavikumar8199]

Ben doing what he does best. Taking us back in time. Brilliant 👌

[@paulroute3424]

This guy can’t be human absolute perfection easily the greatest I’ve ever heard in 64 years 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@Lunch_Box_74_]

80’s had the best clean guitar sounds!

[@adamn5821]

My favorite Def Leppard song. You are so precise. Well done.

[@maevan360]

One of the first songs I learned back in the day. Was lucky enough to see them on the Hysteria tour and wanted to play this live version so bad. I still treasure my black Les Paul Custom, though I've always wanted a Jackson. Thank you for these videos!!

[@megaBredman]

Wow you saw Steve!!!! Very very lucky, hysteria tour Wow!!!!💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻congratulations

[@robinstevens9189]

Bone-chilling covers as per usual Ben. Thank you!!!

[@shehzadatif1]

I love that prelude in live version..

[@KingBeevr]

It's weird but I love that this video lets me hear Steve's part so well, because I can see what he's not playing. Awesome as usual.

[@bwm5150]

Well, if you want to hear and see Steve’s parts, I covered them in my ‘Steve In The Round’ series last year 😁

[@TonyTheHitman1981]

Never clicked on anything faster!!!!

[@MrCarl5150]

I LOVE the start/intro to this live...gives me goosebumps every time....such a memorable couple shows...and you have this down cold 👍🤘💪🍻

[@nelsonencinacastillo5467]

Beautiful guitar, good sound! Great song!

[@TheRetroManRandySavage]

I still get super jelly when I see these concerts of in the round. Jealous of the crowd because they was there and I wasn't, lol. Still, at least I got to go to the don valley concert. Cheers, Ben.🍻

[@evilcartman1]

As said in the Steve Clark cover: Best version ever... I was in the seventh row, the first part of the Hysteria Tour, and the 14th, the second go round at the Brendan Byrne Arena in East Rutherford, NJ. Can't get enough of this version.

[@aminahmed2220]

What a fantastic cover

[@Atlas_Max11]

Just commented on your Steve version... you nailed Phil's part. The combo of Steve and Phil's styles is what made them one of the best ever.

[@evany0526]

This song is always a treat live however the HYSTERIA and ADRENALIZE tours had this song at another level. TLFL into this is up there with GOW and DHTH as the best 1-2 punch for me, and this show had both! Flawless playing as always!

[@rugdnit911]

Gods of War is so F’ing good

[@shehzadatif1]

Listening again.. I keep coming back.. :)

[@robcny74]

Sweet man . Love the live touch this song has .

[@andreasnordin9023]

Great. Just found this channel. Former music teacher who loves music. Which for me does NOT mean crazy, technical shredding but putting each instruments strengths to a sum of all parts. Then true magic of music come alive. Thanks.

[@bwm5150]

Thanks! My favourite covers are usually the ones where the guitar is providing some cool, ambient, session style work. Usually stuff from Michael Landau, Jay Graydon, Dann Huff, Steve Lukather type work. But I do enjoy the odd shred every now and then.

[@goofthetroop6898]

Best Thanksgiving gift ever! Can't wait to hear Clark's guitar cover of this one.

[@bwm5150]

I did the Steve series last year, link in the description😁

[@DepotGiant03]

Your like the 6th member of the band awesome work man love this song and Def Leppard

[@jordangrey9868]

Love your channel. The best covers

[@thelmalynch7109]

🤩 wow Ben that was amazing I am so excited about this new series 🎧🎸 Happy Thanksgiving to everyone cheers🍻 your journey fan always 🎶🎶🎶

[@Junior-sk9vu]

I love the clean tone riff in the verses!!

[@oneman49instruments]

Awesome chain effects! Greetings from a Barcelona's musician!

[@Nightweaver1]

You're the real deal, man. That takes a lot of practice.

[@hyghhopes]

Beautifully executed, Brother!👏👏👏

[@THESHADOWSLAIR669]

great cover man!

[@kennethm1818]

Great job hitting those parts that are under the lead guitar and happy Thanksgiving from the States!

[@MrJaviermirandarod]

INCREÍBLE!!! 😍

[@mattcunningham6]

Wow, amazing!!!

[@richardshort4587]

Great talent you have.

[@espjem2474]

Another bad night at work, I come home and put on KZbin before going to sleep and what do I see? Another great cover from bwm5150... I can now sleep peacefully. I really like your guitars. I have a Les Paul and Ibanez Jem but looking at buying either a charvel or a Jackson. Do you have a preference out of the 2 you have?

[@bwm5150]

Thanks, I hope you have a better day. Charvel have a better lineup for the money these days.

[@billybatson5697]

Alright here we go. Video one of asking for a cover of "You're the Only Hell You're Mama Raised". Hopefully I get it by Christmas.

[@hyutyub]

Very nice…more lesson for me just watching your videos. Your world famous!🤘.

[@bwm5150]

Thanks! Well, to Die Hard Lep fans, I may be familiar in a few countries. :P

[@TheAidenWrestling]

YES!

[@BludgeonRiffola87]

All you need to do now is the Joe Elliott Hysteria guitar cover. That would be a complete show. 😊😉

[@bwm5150]

Haha, true, although I think they cut off his guitar in the outro 👀😅

[@shehzadatif1]

listening again.. :) Love it..

[@DariusMcDonis]

Incredible!

[@nathd1748]

Nice work Ben. I still love your 10 year old original mix of both Phil & Steve.

[@BubblegumCrash332]

I have to sync this up with your Steve Clark in the Round cover for the ultimate cover

[@guitar_begins_at_40]

Wow. Really good playing

[@TanTan-hr7uq]

👌🏻

[@Jmac2496]

Oh my god yessss!!!!

[@oe1129]

Nice cover❗

[@TonyM132]

Now we just need a cover of Sav's bass at this performance! (Love that bass intro.) And maybe what Joe was playing when he had a little guitar for the second half of the song..?

[@talentotech-p1e]

Thank you for doing so much of Def Leppard, I love the band to my bones. Sounds amazing. Look forward for more of it. I always thought that Phil and Steve both used a fernandes sustainer but seeing your videos and achieving the same sound makes me wonder that I might have been wrong! Regards and keep rocking and sharing this great stuff!

[@bwm5150]

Thanks for the kind words! Phil only started using a sustainer in the 90’s and Steve didn’t have any on his touring guitars. In the studio they would use Ebows. Also, with natural and pinch harmonics, you can simulate the effects of an amp feeding back, which is what a sustainer sounds like.

[@talentotech-p1e]

@@bwm5150 Thank you! I knew you would shed some light about it. That intro with harmonics over that bass line is so powerful and subtle at the same time. Love it. Cheers!!

[@arrosconpollo1]

awsome! Great post.

[@Menyhard]

Nice

[@donseclad]

Love it. Fantastic as always

Very nice !!!!!!!

[@Patrizia56]

Браво ❤❤❤❤

[@Stef140]

How would Phil switch from clean to distortion in those days, was it a pedalboard with effects or maybe someone switching his rack gear backstage?

[@bwm5150]

From this tour onwards, a tech does his changes.

[@darrenkirmond3057]

Would love to jam this with you sometime!

[@valerieguillaume5817]

🥰

[@fidem15893]

Off topic... Have you ever think about a leppardized version of "Voices carry" of Til'Tuesday? It can be interesting.

[@bwm5150]

There's a lot of songs out there that I would like to try, and that's certainly one to consider.

[@TRaYTHaB0SS]

Good thing I have two phones and two sets of AirPods. One phone & AirPod can play Steve’s video and the other can play Phil’s. Just need to find a good sync mark 😮

[@bwm5150]

Haha, I think there's websites out there that can play two KZbin vids together.

[@thebeastproductions]

The clean tone sounds a lot like the Tom Scholz Rockman tone they used to make the demos (and maybe lay down some of the album takes?)

[@Patrizia56]

👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@GuitarHeroPhenomSux]

In your cover of Steve's part, you have him playing the solo, but in your cover of Phil's part (this video), you have him playing the solo. Did they solo together? If so, then who's doing the rhythm during the solo? I'm not criticizing you at all, as the only reason I noticed is because I've watched both your covers many times. I can't get enough of how great they were at harmoniously blending their parts and accenting each other throughout to create such a layered ambient sound that speaks to a "sixth" sense that I think all humans have. It's like the feeling of being in love (moreso for the first time when you're very naive/inexperienced) - the warmth, happiness, security, trust etc. that overwhelms you to the point of expressing your vulnerabilities without any fear of compromising yourself, because you're so emotional and unable to think logically. Your playing excellently shows how great these two were together. They were very innovative as far as lead/rhythm playing goes. What had been traditional up to that point was a person playing a consistent rhythm with a lead performing the melody over top. These guy's changed the formula, both contributing to the lead/rhythm at different points. Amazing chemistry and "feel." Your covers showcase that.

[@bwm5150]

Thanks! Joe plays the rhythm. If you watch the In The Round concert video, Joe is shown playing a guitar. The extended break after the second chorus before the solo starts is there so that Joe can be given a guitar.

[@GuitarHeroPhenomSux]

​@bwm5150 oh okay, thanks for clearing that up. I've admittedly watched your covers more exclusively than the video if that tells you how great they are. I'm a guitar guy, so I love watching covers to understand why songs can evoke emotions. Thank you for taking the time to learn, record, and share these covers with us.

[@Sambora.R]

Best

[@theflyxx]

Having both Steve and Phil on guitar is an embarrassment of riches for a band.

[@高橋たかし-w2n]

87年のデンバーかな?この当時のフィルのプレイ、楽曲に忠実で好きでした。

[@bwm5150]

Denver '88.

[@KingGrio]

If I have a single criticism to make is that your natural vibrato is too small and fast. This song is good because some of the vibrato is so slow you are forced to slow it down to match the original sound, but your "natural" way of doing vibrato is the only thing I'd wish you'd work on, because every thing else man, you've got it down to perfection !

[@bwm5150]

It's always been a weakness of mine and something I try to work on. Please don't ever think I'm sitting here thinking I am flawless, I am far from that and know ever single flaw. But these vids aren't really to show off, they are just for referencing how to play these songs.

[@まっちょん42]

携帯並べて、シンクロさせると最高です。

[@bwm5150]

It is…

[@varunvallury3499]

now his parts are tottally different live

[@bwm5150]

Yes, although you could argue the biggest change was from this tour to the Adrenalize one.

[@Jmac2496]

Honestly I’d love to see you cover the Adrenaline Tour!

[@bwm5150]

@@Jmac2496 I covered the version of Rocket from the Don Valley show a few years ago.

[@TRaYTHaB0SS]

@@bwm5150 YES!!! It was a huge change. Phil no longer plays his original guitar parts Viv does because he took over Steve’s lead guitar parts. Been that way since Adrenalized.

[@sambora76]

he's married :) congrats ! she said yes :) another " super monaco " a day ?

[@bwm5150]

🤞

[@malcolmtongue4811]

Why Basterdise your guitar and take out some bits ...

[@bwm5150]

I took out the tone and moved the volume over as i kept hitting it when playing.

Nice
