Hi from Portugal! Nuno is a portuguese hero!

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

He’s Portuguese? I didn’t know. Cool. And yes you’re right!!

[@donkeyhead68]

@@michaelgoyettemusic yes he is. He was born in the portuguese islands of Azores. His brother Luís was a musical producer in Portugal. Nuno has received a condecoration from the Portuguese government

[@stevefisher2121]

All I have to say is that if this is Nuno's tribute to Eddie - Eddie is looking down with one big damn smile on his face!!!!! Nuno is 56 years young and still kicking ass - period.

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

Truth

[@guitarmuscle6968]

Nuno's been doing stuff like this for nearly 40yrs, listen to the first 2 Extreme Albums and there's some Amazing guitar work even that early in his Career that sounded unique to Nuno, and his technique has always been on a level with all the greats, yet he only seems to be recognised by fellow guitar players as one of the best Musicians ever on the instrument, Nuno will always be in my Top 3 guitar players ever and don't ask me to name the other 2 because i keep changing my mind, but i never change my mind about Nuno.

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

Long live the king!! :)

[@jameslane9537]

I agree. I have a top 5 where the 1st four are Vai, Satriani, Petrucci and Nuno. #5 depends on what day of the week it is.

[@LinkRocks]

Yep. He's been overlooked for decades. If you ask guitarists they'll tell you Nuno is one of the all time greats, plus he's a humble guy. People are finally noticing.

[@seanblinn1able]

Rise is a song birthed when Stone Temple Pilots (Silvergun Superman) and Blue October (Daylight) had a baby that was delivered by Eddie Van Halen. Nuno is simply amazing - that tremolo picking is demonic.

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

Good analogy!!! The tremolo picking is the only part I can do at tempo!! 😂 that 2nd part is stupid cool.

[@doddybjworshipchannel803]

Gary n Nuno complementing each other. Great

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

It’s a clever way to segue into the solo.

[@FreeMTrider]

6:30 "it's a song in itself....ok, we're doing this solo twice" Hell yeah!

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

It’s definitely the selling feature!! :)

[@Bredaxe]

So Nuno did a few tributes in that solo and his rhythm playing. That ending little riff was Dimebag. During the solo his bends and tremolo was Eddie all the way including playing rock on drop D. If you look at his guitar, the Floyd Rose even has Eddie's D-tuna on it.I believe there was a little Brian May in there also. Notice Gary had the tribute to Freddie Mercury with the microphone stand with no legs. I bet this album will be like a love letter to those musicians past.

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

Well said……I didn’t know dimebag that well but I agree with the other references. Cheers bro.

[@divisiona3974]

I bet you’re right.

[@LinkRocks]

Yep. Extreme has always put their influences in their songs while managing to make their songs their own. They're one of the best to ever do it.

[@dannyberry8725]

EVH loved Nuno so much he used to play parts of the He-Man Woman Hater solo during soundcheck with VH.

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

I watched an interview with Nuno and Herman Li. Nuno loves the Rihanna gig. He said the live show is not what you think. He described the gig as challenging. I couldn't believe anything would be a challenge to him at this point. Great interview BTW -- check it out. I am so curious about the rest of the album which I believe comes out June 9.

[@neil1killick]

What separates bands like Extreme, Metallica and Van Halen from the rest - aside from the pure musicianship and ability of every member of the group - is the attention to detail in every aspect of both the song itself and the production. The drums, bass, lead guitar, keys and singing are all impeccable, and how they blend together in the arrangement is first class. Like Van Halen were with Eddie, Extreme are also blessed with one of the most talented virtuoso musicians and songwriters on the planet in Nuno Bettencourt. Some of the music he has written - particularly on III Sides - is breathtakingly beautiful, and his guitar playing on both acoustic and electric is unparalleled. I cannot wait for the new album.

I could make an amazing greatest solos of al time list with just his solos and people wont disagree!

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

He’s never done anything else like this section….no one has.

[@jacobmusic92]

@@michaelgoyettemusic I agree that this is something he invented and is very much to his style (no doubt taking influence from Eddie and Brian) but he has done something very similar in the past, at least it is the same technique 3 notes per string, hammer on, pull-off, palm muting with amazing timing and percussive skills. it is very much his style and signature. He has it in loads of riffs like he man women hater, midnight express and it is very similar in the peacemaker die solo. he has just taken it to a new level, again. If you have been listening to him for a while, the second you hear it, it is instantly recognisable as Nuno's sound, for me. It is mind blowing, brilliant and i am so glad he is finally getting the props he rightfully deserves. Easily one of the best of all time.

@@jacobmusic92 there are no pull offs or hammer ons. Every note is picked.

Watched him do it live, and him talk about it and play it in the Rick Beato interview. He himself talked about the similarity with peacemaker die solo back in 92 at the end of that interview. It is definitely not all picked. Not in the video you reacted to either. Either way it doesn't matter as he is a GOAT no questions asked about that.

Spoiler ahead. The TLDR on the Rihanna tour is basicly, as it turns out when you're a really successful and rich pop singer you can afford really, really good musicians and you can convert journalists who don't like her, to wtf that was one of the best things I ever saw live?!??

[@janknuno6033]

Hello thank you for your wonderful review of my 2nd favorite guitarist (can't compete with a dead guy, Tommy Bolin is my #1) anyway, I have been there grooving to Nuno for 40 years, it's about time everybody else caught on. Hey, I didn't know how else to try to go about this a bit covertly, so I figured I'd bury what I'm about to ask you and hope you read this. As far as my taste in music goes, for 55 years I've listened to bands nobody's heard of, funk, orog rock . Shit just good rock n roll I stopped listening to the radio because it was all crap to me. So coming across something new and exciting would probably be very difficult and then I heard about Ren. When somebody hears about him and listens to him and here's the stories they immediately become hardcore fans and I am one of them. It is so unbelievable that one person can contain that much talent. He's supposed to have produced all of his own music made his own beats and play multiple instruments Anyway, I am fully aware that music videos are lip and instruments synced most of the time and so the playing can be off a little bit and you can tell that they're not really playing it at that moment unless of course you look at someone like Nuno and you know that even if he's syncing he'most definitely played it originally Look, it's killing me to try to ask someone to check this out, but I played for a few years, maybe just enough to give me stupid ideas but could you do me a favor and go and check out his channel and go to the live streams. That's the best place to see what I'm talking about I want and pray that you come back and say it's just glitches or whatever but something's not right. And I'm hoping it's with my perception, because it looks like people that can't really play guitar very well. Or at all. Nothing matches up or there is a struggle to find the right key to be in, chord to play or how the solo goes. I feel like such a shit. But people who can really play well invest the b s and t and deserve recognition for their efforts. This guy is blowing up so fast, and maybe everything is as the story goes. That's why fans latch onto him so fast... His talent, story, illness and recovery, and awesome range of talent and know how seems almost too good I've known artists who can do most of these things( Nuno being one of them) and Emitt Rhodes, Prince, Paul McCartney , ect. Ok I hope I'm wrong and only someone with your type skills should judge . If there is anyway you could email me your thoughts on the matter. I believe my address heads the comment. Thank you I just need to know if I'm losing it . I know he's helping everyone's channel . But I need to know for ME

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

I’m not sure what your question is….if the question is do I think Ren is lip-syncing the answer would be no…..I’ve broken down some Ren songs in detail. His fingers are in the right places and even the little mistakes match up. Is that the question?

[@janknuno6033]

@@michaelgoyettemusic thank you for getting back to me so quickly I didn't expect that. What happened was is when I went to the live streams every time it got to a guitar jam fingering would get all off with the stream of start freezing up but it only happened when they bring out the guitar as well one time one of the girls voice got all mixed up. There are a couple other spots that I've seen but they were not represented as being live even though you would have thought that they were. It's just that this guy Ren has got so much talent and he was bedridden for a very long time. The amount of knowledge he seems to possess about video and audio is pretty in-depth. That plus the skills rapping and singing with a voice made for reggae ( when he did that little bit of singing at the end of hi Ren I said right out loud to the person sitting next to me I bet you he would sound great singing reggae) and multiple instruments and everything he's just I guess the real deal which I couldn't be any happier about. I have spent the last three weeks down the rabbit hole in the Renverse for a much needed infusion of new music. I don't know if you watch any other reaction channels but the things that are being said about him is just unbelievable. People that are deep into the rap game, as well as rock, are saying they've never seen anything like him, and how is it they didn't ever hear of him. It's nuts . Thank you for clearing that up I knew only someone who was a pro should take a look. My brother was friends and played with Chet Atkins, his hero, a couple times . He lives too far away tho, and he thinks everything is crap since the 60's. Lives too far anyway Thank you so much. Back down the rabbit hole

Great song. If you dig nunos stuff check out Mourning Widows, Dramagods and Population1. He's lead vocals and lead everything. Gary has a band with his brother Mark(incredible guitarist) called Hurtsmile. Great bands that I think you would dig. Dramagods album "LOVE" is a great rock album. Solid songs and great production. Smokin solo on the song "Lockdown" He actually was Rhiannas musical director part of him signing on was he was allowed to "fuck with all her songs" it's a cool story how he jumped on board with her. Hope you dig those bands. Enjoyed this video and will definitely check out more of your content. 🤘

You. R right

Gary is kiiling it at 61. Also, check out Nuno live with Rihanna. He gets to be himself and the bad is fantastic.

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

That would be fun to see. I’ll look for some clips

[@852aaron]

"woah" yeah, same dude

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

100%

[@michaelcard9382]

That was one badazz solo 💥wonder what effects he got those low tone shred notes with lol

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

I think it’s clean until the very end where there’s an octave maybe.

[@jllamb88]

@@michaelgoyettemusic that’s my impression as well. I’ve heard a lot of people claiming he’s “cheating” with delay in the palm muting section, but I’m certain he’s not. We know he’s more than capable of playing cleanly at that speed from live footage of “Midnight Express” etc.

[@bobbyosborne2375]

It's well known nuno doesn't use hardly anything except for a ratt pedal. He's using an octive pedal during the insanity section of the solo. That's about it.

You should check out the warning. They just released 3 live versions of their songs disciple, animosity and entersandman. Also check out their live session for Z

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

Enter sandman like the Metallica song?

[@matt8097]

@@michaelgoyettemusic yes but they made it their own version it was for the black list album

Nuno his a Portuguese Guitar GOD.

[@chrisridenhour]

I detected a tiny bit of Warren Demartini in that solo it was pretty sick

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

I haven’t heard that name in years!! It was sick!!

[@user-mk3ni4yh6x]

Super-amazing guitar!!!!! To me, it was all a tribute to Eddie. Tremolo picking, dive-bombs and.... am I wrong but I think that the muted part is a reference to the tapping intro of "Hot for Teacher" - just Nuno style and on steroids. Man it is good!!! He is definitely the man

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

I don’t know….Hot For Teacher is outlining arpeggios same as this….the main difference would be lots of guitarists can play Hot For Teacher while I’ve yet to see anyone pull this off. Tapping vs picking every note at 175 bpms….tapping is much easier between those 2 options. Cheers.

My man said "whoa" 😅

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

Big words don’t always work!! 😂

[@guitarkharma]

Who would win in a guitar battle between Nuno and God? It’s a trick question. Nuno IS God.

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

😂 Demi-god maybe…… Nunocles!

[@joeyhoser]

I love how clean and unproduced his guitar tone is. That is just a guitar plugged directly into a nice tube amp with zero effects and processing, and in 2023 it very much stands out as such.

[@robertscharlow]

"Whoa..." 🤣

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

I went a little Keanu there!! Lol

[@veroniquewolff8963]

There are a few songs released from the new album - Banshee, Rebel and Other Side of the Rainbow, if you want check out more of there new stuff.

[@michaelgoyettemusic]
