Graham Bonnet Interview (1983 Alcatrazz)

[@miladydewinter7770]

He had me hooked in 1968 with "Only One Woman" --- what an amazing voice from a 21 year old -- one of the best voices EVER.

[@mickd6942]

Can’t believe how soft spoken he is when you consider how he belts out songs , the guys a legend

[@petewoodroffemusic]

Graham looks like James Dean! Very cool guy and one of thee greatest Rock vocalists ever putting RAINBOW on the commercial map with the '79 classic DOWN TO EARTH !!! (Check out his new album 'DAY OUT IN NOWHERE') Pete Woodroffe Music

[@FelipeMansur1987]

Amazing Graham Bonnet!

[@thutomuhashimoto9307]

誰が何と言っても、世界一大好きなボーカリスト。Graham最高。

[@katyalacrua6793]

A very nice man Graham) Easy talker.

[@etype-o-negativ3874]

やっさん感が またいいわけで Graham大好き❤

[@paulrambone6705]

Graham is in MY top five vocalist. Always love any musical group he sang for. He is one of the best ever.

[@wattage2007]

Never even knew there was a music video for Island In The Sun. Nice one :)

[@etype-o-negativ3874]

隠しきれない いい人感(笑)

[@billybobjohn8955]

Two rock band singers who actually looked like bankers, Graham Bonnet and Rob Halford, and Yngwie playing a flying W-TF.

[@Witchfyre]

Was someone suggesting that heavy metal was old fashioned in 1983? Jajajaja, so weird! Amazing Graham Bonnet!

[@LASKARIKOS]

Although imagine that the first wave of 70s gone mostly known as hard rock now.. And it was the new wave coming

[@simplebutnotsolongname6642]

Bob Daisley said similar things too about when he and Ozzy were making Blizzard of Ozz, Punk and New Wave were trending at the time and they were making what would be consider Dinosaur by then.

[@InterestingStuff888]

wow, such a down to earth guy

[@twillbanks]

I see what you did there

[@EduardoFerreira-rh7dk]

I'm sure he auditioned for terminator 2

[@templatemusic]

cool to see Yngwie playing his Aria(?) V

[@magynorr]

I miss the 80's - of course I was only just born in 09/80 so LOL. Whatever. I can still miss those times of innocence and not knowing anything of the world.

[@georgegrewal8797]

He’s a Legend

[@umakara55]

最後の質問、小林さんが80年代のメタルブームを新時代の到来として言及しているのに対して、グラハムはパープルやジミヘンからの継続性を意識して、古い音楽のリバイバル的なブームだと捉えているのが興味深いな。

[@Carnabycat2024]

ビートルズの話も出てるけど、グラハムは伝説の キャヴァーンクラブでビートルズを見ている世代 だからねぇ。デビューだってビージーズの一派から 出てきているわけだし、全然HRやメタルの要素が なかったんだよね。ただ、あの声！ リッチーやコージーが、そういえばあの凄い声の奴 今何してるんだろうな、という話からレインボー参加 に繋がったのは有名ですよね。

[@Foofang65]

Great voice. 👍

[@balqisizham9601]

Your vocal in the song Stand In Line is EPIC

[@phantomjackalope1]

このベストヒットUSAを見て腰抜かしました。なんてギタリストがいるんだって。次週くらいに隣町のレコード店行ったら案の定このアルバムが大量入荷してましたね。みんなこのアルバム買いに来てた。

[@saydon8170]

グラハムカッコイイ。小林克也さん若いなあ🎵

[@IgorsDeepPurpleUniverse]

As you might MSG played on Reading Festival 10.08.1982 ! That gig should have been Bonnet's first gig with the band. But what happened, just the day before the show, the band finished their rehearsal, and backstage Bonnet & Schenker had some very serious argue which finished with a fist fight. Graham took most of the beating and left immediately, so Schenker called Gary Barden back up and he did the Reading show and stayed for 2 years more, until MSG split in 1984 !

[@jamieburgess1460]

No, graham was so drunk he fell off the stage at Redding, Malmsteen thought he unplugged his amplifier, and kicked his ass on the bus.

[@elbks41]

[@goodboyb]

Funny, I always thought Yngwie was a strat man

[@paulallenscard8553]

Brian Cole He only ever played a V a few times in '83

[@vincentgarzoli3197]

The "V" guitars he played were not Gibsons, but were made by a conpany he and bassist, Gary Shea were endorsing called Aria. Yngwie's Aria Pro II Series V featured three single coil pickups and an incline headstock with a 25-1/2 scale length, so basically it was a Strat disguised as V!

[@teamdaiwa88]

Graham realy looks like "Ysasushi Yokoyama"!!! But his VOICE is fabilous.

[@nomuratetsutaro3881]

小林 克也、若いね。と思ったら、俺が歳食っているからじゃねえかと。この当時はまだ初々しい15か16歳くらいだったのに。。。（T◇T）

[@mooseknuckle9657]

what is this music.......I think I read,,,,,is it Rock N Roll? Also what is the thing your holding and singing into?

[@drumtum]

Is this from Japanese tv? Quite amazed of the guy doing the interview. Never seen english spoken interviews ever from japan.

[@naturalthing1]

it was a Japanese tv show. There are subtitles for people who can't understand or hear very well. unlike most countries the Japanese are highly literate and can read

[@bloodisfreedomsstain]

That dude's accent gives off the impression he was in raised in America or something. Just by listening to him I wouldn't be able to tell he's Japanese.

[@eijikaji2358]

This TV program still goes on at 2020 in Japan.

[@WHATISUTUBE]

Yeah I was surprised. No way the Japanese guy didnt grow up in the states.

3:44 What sort of V is Yngwie playing here? Can't find anything about it!

[@msumungo]

Andy Scarlett Hi, looks like Aria Pro II XX Flying V : www.guitar-museum.com/guitar-57228-Aria-Pro-ll-XX-Deluxe-Flying-V

[@RickRenstromOfficial]

+Andy Scarlett I'm a little late to the party, but it was an Aria Pro. Yngwie had an endorsement with them before he got his full Fender endorsement.

[@thevulvateenrabbit7085]

I had an Aria ZZ back in the 80's. Inexpensive, but decent guitars for the money. Notice how he replaced the humbuckers with single coils.

As I understood, Graham was so drunk on his first gig with MSG that he had to leave, but I may be wrong :)

[@drumtum]

True. But he always could sing compared with the screaming twat Stanley.

[@jamieburgess1460]

He was so drunk he fell off the stage and fought the audience, he stayed and recorded Assault Attack.

[@theothertroll]

The album Assault Attack was Graham’s greatest work 🤪

[@WingerRattDokken]

In 1982 Michael fired Graham because gossip says he was drunken on stage...don't know if that is true...

Hilarious considering its a rite of passage in rock n roll

この人にはレインボーの後にまた以前のロックンロールに戻って欲しかった。リッチーに頼まれたからちょっと寄り道しただけさって。元に戻っていればスーパースターにもなれたろうに。ヘビメタにどっぷりハマってしまったのがこの人の悲劇。自分を客観的に見れない頭の悪い良い人なんだろうね。
