Kim Mitchell Band / Slash Band Jam Battlescar

[@mm-ol9rq]

Kim makes it look so easy - phenomenal skills on the guitar

[@BLANTTA2]

Chris and Brent were right on perfectly with each other, absolutely fantastic

[@chrisroberts-songsfromthel6299]

Best version ever. So glad to see Slash's guys getting into and have rehearsed it to death. Nice tip of the hat to the Max machine and just how good they really were

[@Spedly]

My favourite memory of this show was that my friend made a sign that said 'Slash, I will get your autograph tattooed on' and threw it up on the monitor at the end of the show. Myles saw it and smiled, we waited out back and talked to Brent and eventually met Slash, he autographed my friends forearm and the next day we went to Ottawa for me to catch my flight, and he got it tattooed on, thank god there were some tattoo shops open on a Sunday. Amazing night. One of the best shows Ive ever been to

[@Jamesscearce]

I can't stop watching this... Battlescar is a great song, very under-rated publically... but something most musicians can appreciate. Powerful but not overdone, Kim Mitchell caresses a tasteful, skillful guitar solo when he plays this. This song just sounds so good live.

[@canuckinla]

Fantastic! The vocals of Todd and Peter are second to... very few. Thanks for posting - a real treat!.

[@heygringo7]

Blistering version of Battlescar. Trading leads and vocals. Todd Kerns brings Chris Cornell to the Geddy Lee parts. That is metal. Killer.

[@davidbauer3711]

I first heard this on the radio in Dallas, TX in 1980 - was so powerful and tried in vein to find out who this was. Luckily I recorded it on a Teac 4 channel reel to reel and still have it today. All I knew was that was Geddy Lee on the vocals at the time. It wasn't until several years later when Kim Mitchell's Max Webster CD's were available by special order did I realize who this was! Simply Brilliant!!

[@mikeyuk1960]

AAAMMMAAAZZZIIINNNGGG !! Breathtaking performance of the classic Kim Mitchell song ! OMG it was stunning. Thanks for posting this smoking vid.

[@annesevenkeys]

Absolutely brilliant performance. Love Todd Kerns, he sounds amazing here.

[@Spedly]

I was at this show, right up front. What an amazing time

[@dixienormous3262]

Chris Sutherland is an excellent drummer. Style and ease of play with such smooth movement, transition and crispness. One of the best around!! Love watching this guy.

[@aggcavan943]

Whooooooooo!! That was amazing!! Holy vocals!! This is like a moving train. Get on or get crushed.

[@jeffr.5717]

Cool arrangement, with light and heavy working beautifully together. Tight and together playing too. Yeah!

[@Anyccka1]

Isn´t awesome to see how they all enjoy jam along? Fantastic piece. This is just pure pleasure ...

[@MrUltraworld]

This got almost no attention in the states. In '80 or '81 Rush & Max Webster crammed all their gear into a room & recorded this song. It appears on Universal Juveniles. At the time is wasn't in print in the US. I had to order the record & wait 2 months. I first saw Max Webster opening for Rush on the Permanent Waves Tour.

[@Prop_2112]

Same here. Max Webster opened up for Rush Market Square Arena in Indianapolis ! I bought universal Juveniles right when it came out. So many great songs on it !!!

[@matthewbarry4464]

I picked up Universal Juveniles in the states after I first heard the song. I was living in NH. Much to my surprise the entire album was excellent. Pretty sure it was in 1980.

[@deepblu39]

Awesome drummers!

[@MediaFuelCanada]

Absolutely always loved this live version!!!

[@embassyhotel]

What an awesome video! & they sounded killer tight as well,Kim Mitchell is an underrated guitarist for sure.& the drummer Chris Sutherland rocks because we have the same last name lol,I'm a Sudsy also.

Best part - Todd Kerns admiring Pete as he absolutely BELTS out 'FEEL THE WAY I FEEL' near the end... amazing stuff.

[@mdoner]

Still sounds as fresh as when it first came out! A great song for a guitar-heavy ensemble to jam to.
