Ian Hunter and Mick Ronson - Once Bitten Twice Shy 1975 promo STEREO SOUND

[@Sunhillow1]

If I've said it once I've said it a thousand times and I'll say it again - Mick Ronson was a criminally under-rated guitar legend!

[@gteefxr3094]

You sir should be a "ratings attorney". Of course you've probably heard that a thousand times. But I'll say it again; "you sir should be a ratings attorney".

[@SuperAnimelover100]

Sad but True. :(

[@chellebadita]

He was do humble that he didn't want to be rated. He was just for the music and encouraging others. In spite of this he was godlike in his demeanor and talent.

[@andrewpattenden8446]

Elton said everyone wanted Mick on guitar.

[@ellenflores6915]

Up there with Page

[@timothyproksch2915]

I’m glad I’m 67 and got to enjoy this when it was fresh like it still is today

[@Basman59]

64 here heading to 65...70s England had issues but the music was out of this world. Whatever genre you liked. Some classic anthems...this makes my top 20 all day long. So glad I lived thru that...where is my time machine.

[@rhondacrosswhite8048]

Me too.

[@Edmant]

Same age, loving this Rock 'n Roll.

[@tomfaulkner2055]

A mere 63 but hey it still sounds good.

[@dandare6865]

Thank you Ian Hunter for standing with Mick Ronson through good and bad times.

[@DavidJones-pv8zu]

Mick Ronson - totally shredding it! Ian Hunter - defines "cool". Great song that stands the test of time.

[@lisabergkoetter7467]

It does. I just sent this my 20 yr old neice

[@liambox17]

loved this in the seventies,,,,,,,, AND FUCKING LOVE IT NOW.

[@DeanConnie]

Still very addictive in 2024

[@MrValentyne]

Ian Hunter is criminally overlooked when it comes to great voices. A fabulous singer and a wonderful songwriter.

[@gteefxr3094]

Is he "criminally overlooked" & "feloniously underrated"? That would be the perfect KZbin description. And then to be a "National Force of Treasure" would be the ultimate.

[@lisalu910]

In my opinion, this is THE perfect rock n roll performance. Everything about it is pure genius. If there was a primer on how to build a rock n roll song - the opening tongue in cheek lead vocals, the gradual layering of instruments and backup vocals, the drum riff leading into the bridge, the scorching guitar solo and the climactic final verse - it's all there in this one song.

[@nigden1]

Mick Ronson, from David Bowie's band was one of the finest rock guitarists Britain had.

[@AndrewMoizer]

I think you hit it on the head with this comment. Too bad the guitar solo doesn't just keep on going ... it's got it all!

[@dms1071]

How To Make The Perfect Rock Single. Hunter is funny, the lyrics are crackling and RONSON is in God Mode

[@strictlynorton]

The Ronson Hunter hook up was musically perfect. Mick was a monumental badass and Ian was and still is cooler than a penguin's flipper. A true tragedy to lose MR the way we did but everytime i hear his guitar solo on Moonage Daydream i believe in miracles!!!! R.I.P Ronno you beast. We miss you down here.

[@Miguel...160]

i hear you brother x so true

[@timpenfield5]

MR was a rock genius, and a true original.

[@tippimail1]

Cooler than a penquin's flipper!!!!LOL!Great song,by the way.

[@catfatherb]

strictlynorton. The Wildhearts claim the last recorded guitar solo from Ronson was on their song "my baby is a headfuck" from their Earth vs. Wildhearts album. Anyone know if this is true?

[@Sww1975]

I was 18 then 66 now still blows my mind

[@brettgarsed]

One of the greatest guitar solos EVER!

[@jas2819]

Mick Ronson........what a brilliant guitarist and artist. 👏👏👏👏

[@WillDockery]

All-time classic from Ian Hunter and Mick Ronson.

[@RobertPlant-rh9ro]

I Had The GREAT Opportunity to see them both in Portland ME in the mid 80's Fantastic Show 2 thumbs Up

[@Leps262]

Mick Ronson, THE best...loved how he moved, everything about him, he was just class

[@est_locatelli]

He was the nazz

[@TheNeverposts]

still is

[@GeneTrujillo]

The very definition of a rock god :)

[@marim.8857]

the remake of this song by that 90's hair band couldn't even compare not even close

[@TheStones1965]

Leps262 Randy Rhodes idolized him.

[@DavidTransformer]

Saw Hunter and Ronson at the old Glasgow Apollo just after Mott split up mid 70's. Still one of the best concerts I ever saw. And Ronno on guitar was simply awesome to watch.

[@peterzang]

The good die young, my friend. Everybody loved him, too.

[@cohenterry717]

Peter Gerstenzang He was a great musician and great live

[@jimmybeegood]

Did you ever see SAHB IN THE Apollo ?

[@DavidTransformer]

@@jimmybeegood yes. Fabulous performer. Can’t remember whether it was still Greens Playhouse at the time or changed to the Apollo. Such a great venue

[@telecasterchick]

Love this video. It should be cleaning my apartment and instead I have watched this now for the...... fifth time in a row..... and am clicking replay again. The dust can wait.

[@jorgerobles9484]

48 years later, he's going to release a new studio album by April this year. A living legend.

[@bartjoy5179]

They opened for the Kinks. That was a really honest to goodness rock and roll show. Both bands were incredible.

[@user-ox6uj7xh2o]

Saw that show fantastic

[@MrGonzorhea]

this is an amazing version, love the super clean guitar first verse, then BANG! Go Mick, RIP.

[@mikebarnard2689]

I remember buying the Hunter Ronson album , listening to that… when the power chords came in…. It was like an electric shock.. fantastic searing wah solo. Nice to see Ian using Ronno’s #1 Les Paul, one of the most distinctive guitars of all time.

[@AndrewMoizer]

I've watched this video dozens of times and tonight just noticed that this could be the guitar swap. Was trying to make out if the pickup covers were missing on the guitar the IH is playing to determine if they switched for some reason.

@@AndrewMoizer get the live welcome to the club album, screw the video, another hof standard panzy not in.

[@Geoff99man]

Mick Ronson one of the greatest guitarists of all time...R.I.P..Mick..

[@robscoggins]

Mick Ronson was absolutely amazing.

[@robertwilcox4482]

Mick Robson was a producer and my favorite of the seventies He played with Lou read wrote so many songs you gotta do a deep dive on this guy is amazing

[@sawbird]

I’ve been a Bowie nut since 1972, and Mick Ronson was a huge part of that obsession. As for Lou, Transformer would not have been the masterpiece it is without Mick. As for Ian Hunter, Mick was just what he needed. What an album!

[@talbotsplace7316]

The Mick Ronson solo should be linked in the dictionary under 'tasteful.' That was certainly something else.

[@louisesadowsky2916]

This is rock and roll!

[@SuperStuey2]

I say again, Ian Hunter is a fookin rock icon.

[@pamelabendik7704]

love Ian Hunter

[@TheRumphumper]

Best rock song of the seventies and one of the best of all time. Just has it all. And that searing lead break by Ronson. Just awesome!

[@burlingtonbill1]

GREAT JOB! Loved this back in the 70's when it new. Haven't heard it in decades!

[@jasonloader8149]

The best and shortest guitar solo ever. RIP Mick

[@lievenbarbier2680]

Still can't get enough of this great song. I was 16 then, 53 now.

[@timbaybutt172]

the band is so freakin tight....great stuff

[@1wolfoutlaw]

my favourite of all time, they certainly can show todays "pop" what real music is.

[@tomfaulkner6616]

Cor blast from the past. Ian Hunter and Mick Ronson really rock this fine tune.

[@johnlyman7987]

+Tom Faulkner Way cooler than Great White more raw and visceral

[@fligemon]

Nah man......Great White literally burned down a place in RI and people died.......can't top that you bloody wogs!!!!

[@dugitomi]

anything Mick Ronson was in and the talent factor skyrocketed. what a consummate artist and person he was. greatly missed but not forgotten. descansa en la paz siempre, el Maestro.

[@louisesadowsky2916]

There was only one Mick Ronson. This is some of his finest work with Ian Hunter. Rock on, Mick. Rock on.

[@LIZZIE-lizzie]

LOVE Mick Ronson RIP

[@speak2theresafox]

Never before and never again.

[@rayzor1959]

Mick Ronson is the BOMB !!!

[@GRAW2dobber]

More classics songs were produced back then, because you didn't get a look-in unless you had talent! How else can one account for so many classics being produced with less technology & less people producing the finished product? The composers, musicians, producers & sound technicians simply possessed more individual talent than that of today. Quality over quantity.

[@electricleg207]

I love the great Ian Hunter quote ``i love arrogance, i`ll get back`. We did`nt think you`d ever lost it Ian!

[@finnmccool2549]

Mick Ronson....Gone to soon.

[@DesignerLuv]

Mighty Mick Ronson always makes me smile 🥰

[@simonlitten]

I forgot how much I liked this. Thank you so much.

[@mrb7910]

Just looking for my long ago rock stars - Ian and Mick are as underrated as any in history - Ian was (and still is a genius and influence) and Mick was one of the great guitarists - I was lucky enough to see them live a LONG time ago, but will always remember - and with with all respect to Great White - this will always be the original

[@seniormoderator172]

LOVE THIS SONG! Ian Hunter you are a star. Mick Ronson you are the best rock 'n' roll guitarist, musician, songwriter, arranger this planet has ever known! In my humble opinion, of course.....

[@ianburnley7786]

Bloody brilliant this song, two greats coming together.

[@MrMjp58]

A great song and performance. This was released at a time in my life when apart from the odd mis-step, things always seemed to be positive and generally looking up. It didn’t last.

[@shuggiethegreat64]

the best 3 and a half minutes of my musical life

[@jackthelad999]

absolutely brilliant music....pleasure to hear it again

[@smerriman4]

Reliving the best music decade in history :)

[@brinsleysgirl1980]

RIP Mick. Miss you more than ever.

[@rosemarieedge2307]

Thanks so much for sharing, now this is REAL music! Aaaaah the memories........

[@davidkoval6415]

Best Sounding Wah Wah tone Yeah Mick!

[@philippedemol777]

Originality, virtuosity & lots of charm... miles ahead of great white...

[@steelyman08]

Can't knock the "Dudes". It's still liberating to watch this stuff. Great upload. Thanks.

[@sawbird]

Cheers, glad you like it 😊

[@moonbeanification]

'ello ! now that's rock 'n roll with plenty o' swagger...

[@electricleg207]

It should be noted that the last word on Motts final single ,Saturdays Gigs were `Goodbye` .So IH was back with avengence .

[@CB-xr1eg]

Don't forget the guitar the guy from queen made out of a fireplace!

[@Antipodean33]

Mick Ronson, what a great sounding guitarist

[@AlxOrzc]

This is the one & original---------Mick Ronson THE GREAT.

[@HollyJoyner42]

Just Awesomeness!

[@finnmccool2549]

Absolute Gold!

[@miyukishijisha8540]

Sure...love Ian and the boys....

[@arthurpussy]

so very true RIP mick and thankyou for everything

[@jimmybeegood]

Real music .

[@AceBaseKingOfSpace]

The greyhound bus / stateline reference is to me the best rock lyric ever.

[@RobbieGeneva]

I can't believe I'm still alive and watching this. We lost so many....

[@macjones2988]

They don't come much 'cooler' than Ian Hunter.

[@CB-xr1eg]

They move around like tigers on vaseline, and the bitter comes out better on a stolen guitar. ( Ian was " playing " Mick's guitar )

[@MariusPaulMunteanu]

Excellent, thanks !

[@suzannechampagne9458]

One of the best drops in rocknroll

[@pawnshops]

Always loved this track - guaranteed to make ya smile !

[@lewisner]

Mick Ronson, how shall we tell of thy greatness ?

[@Mr7171551]

I love many, many bands, but I think that this is THE ABSOLUTE PERFECT ROCK SONG. Thanks

[@hanoiholic]

this song has been one of my favorite songs for over a two years, which is very very rare for me, and i really think that this will stay on my playlists for a really long time after this. :)

[@woodybear8298]

That's real rock-n-roll.

[@TuckerSP2011]

Sheer perfection. Not one missed moment. God I miss Rock'n'roll.

[@frugalvancityoffers3968]

that's how we rolllllllled in the 70's knock u off your feet ,c was givin what c got ,u got the speed mick ronson killer dude.mervin peers

[@kmachado1960]

Ian is a brilliant songwriter! That is why so many covers out there!

[@edge9090]

He was a hero to Randy Rhoads, for very good reasons.

[@1stSaintsFan]

Been a Ian Hunter fan since I heard "All the Young Dudes" on top 40 radio when it was a hit back in the early 70s...Just love finding this treasure of a video...Mick Ronson is so under-rated...

[@geoff2204]

One the greatest rock songs of all time. And made even more amazing by the fact that, in spite of cranking out an awesome bass line, the bass player is never seen putting finger to string...

[@ultrakool]

here's a story. i was a teen hoople/bowie fan. later when these two went out and headlined the likes of aerosmith, i wanted an autograph. not tyler or hunter, but ronson and he was gracious enough to give me one, on his solo album i brought in to the hotel bar. just when mick was signing it, ian entered the bar and looked like "wtf?". haha. i thanked mr. ronson, collected my signed album and left :)

[@MrBazza86]

Beeb listening to rockn'roll for 50 years - this is as good as it gets. Excellent. Reason: Ian Hunter/Mick Ronson.

[@MrBazza86]

Brilliant Ian Hunter - 10 times better than a lot of the "credited" Rock stars. Great voice!

[@DanstykMusic]

Thanks Sawbird, great work. Agreed, top-shelf 70s rock. Awesome.

[@PaulPadoan]

Great song, great album. I am happy :-)

[@blaisineful]

Dear god, I bought this! Absolutely played it to death.

[@dozer4444]

Karen Kinsey and the radio play Great Whites version to death. I always hated this song. .....until I heard Ian hunters version. I hate when bands take the credit and ruin songs.

[@glenncanale9225]

What a great song 5 years back from Vietnam. Still a grate song today.

[@jeffleoncomedy]

Mick Ronson has been a blessing on anyone he's ever played for. This is proof.

[@kew4612]

I like to visit these times in my head and ears now and then to remind me what fun we had and how good the music was !!

[@Onwaxwings]

The birth of rock

[@petersmart2396]

From someone who was 15 at the time, this was a breath of fresh air, when disco was about to swamp EVERYthing!

[@benbrownjr.7626]

There. You said. it. Roger, say it again! I could argue with you on this, but all it would take me to shut up is you start playing this. Thank you for an awesome post.

[@sawbird]

Ben Brown Jr. You're welcome, Ben. Yes it's hard not argue with the majesty of this performance. And hard to believe it's not live.

[@marliesvandenbosch1]

And what I like the most...All these posts are new.This will never be forgotten. Rock 'n' roll burns.

[@Kieth1998]

I was 14 years old and remember listening to this on a crystal set under the covers at night when I was supposed to be sleeping (my parents kept hassling me about listening to "that modern rubbish") an absolute classic!

[@DerekArmsden]

At 14, the biggest challenge in the world was trying to tape this song off the radio with the opening"Allo" intact :)

[@timothyjoyce9554]

What a great rock band lan hunter had with the marvelous Ronson

[@anthonyhume-ring810]

Mick Ronson is a God!!!

[@BicycleJoeTomasello]

Ian's still gigging with regularity and his band kills

[@shuggiethegreat64]

love this it is brilliant rock&roll at its best cheers ian hunter and mick ronson r.i.p mick ronson

[@joseantoniolemosdiaz1882]

Hunter and Ronson, Bravo , are the best

[@jimgooseridesagain5042]

man, i loved this song as a kid, no-one ever did a decent cover of it, including one of my favorite bands, The Angels, thanx for posting.
