Simple, Badass, Tone from hell, Ronnie Montrose was a force back in the early 70’s. He doesn’t get enough love. The 1973 self titled album Montrose was one of the decades BEST rock albums.

[@chmmm2565]

Amen !!!!!!!

[@JeffCahill-tp8ik]

Him and crew definitely rocked the nation.

[@kenmason1461]

Montrose and Hager =the band Montrose

[@toddroland3203]

[@jasperjenkins7729]

Bought the 1st Montrose album 3 times. And the cassette twice. A true R & R masterpiece.

RIP Ronnie. Your influence on me is was huge. Thanks for some of the greatest rock and roll ever made!

[@joeyhumphrey4536]

Ditto!!!!

[@shawnshawn4786]

Pretty good drummer and bass player, and yet WOW just with one of the all time greatest rock guitarists, makes it sound like 10 in the band. How does that happen?! Great singer too, who reminds me of James Dewar from Trower. What a guitarist. Will never forget taking the plastic off of the Montrose album. RIP Mr. Montrose

[@patricksullivan9452]

Perfect guitar tone by Ronnie.

[@P51]

sounds even better than his les paul did

[@PainterDans]

Glad I heard this , about to bias my amp tonight. Definatly going to set it a little hot

[@BGM16]

This is one year before Ronnie died, it's very sad. We will always love you, you were one of the greatest. RIP Ronnie Montrose.

[@BLUESKY-zt1nv]

So sad ,depression you never know what its like unless you have it ,you see Ronnie on stage looking like he is having a good time ..but deep down he was probably hurting inside .. losing his uncle and his dog on top of this possibly tipped him over the edge ..His music will live on ,some of the Best Rock Riffs / songs in history ..The simplicity of the riffs with a great sense of rhythm is what made them ..thanks for the music Ronnie ...i wish i could have met you in person ..R.I.P.

[@michaelvanbuskirk8845]

One of my absolute favorite guitarists and a huge influence on my guitar playing. I was devastated when I heard of his passing. 😢

[@spumemonk11]

The drummer looks like he's really enjoying himself. What a band!

[@TheElrocker]

Steve is in Tesla now. 🤘🏽

[@ianfrost9758]

Watching this on Christmas Eve 2022, oh Ronnie, you were such a loss. Too young to see Montrose although I loved them , Gamma I saw live at Manchester In the 80's. Such a great loss, a fantastic musician and man.

[@karenwalters1957]

My God...how I miss this kind of raw energy guitar and blues guitar playing rock and roll. Incredible talent. The vocals are great also.

[@MarinCipollina]

Back from the era when bands knew how to rock & roll.. Ronnie was one of the visionary leaders of the early 1970s;

[@bowdaciousbros549]

I got goose bumps from the 6 minute 30 second mark...One of the best to ever do it.

[@beaveittoleaver2327]

One of the few gems that few get to see, but when they do, they marvel at the beauty. Ronnie was a good man, friend, and mentor. Miss you Ronnie ❤️

[@fredgehrer9441]

The tone from Ronnie's guitar is frikking awesome! That what an electric rock guitar is supposed to sound like!

[@snuffy166]

i thought that too the guitar tone wow!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Astr-w6y]

Never got a chance to see him but was certainly an musical influence on me, i remember learning a few of his songs, they were fairly simple but not simple to play with his kind of finesse ! Excellent vocalist, bass and drums !!!

[@esp20101]

Fantastic performance 🎶👌🏼 I saw Gamma at the free trade hall in Manchester Uk 1981 God bless the legendary Ronnie Montrose ❤️

[@TRUTH4U2NO]

Ronnie Montrose a absolute monster on the guitar and responsible in so many ways for arguably one of the greatest rock and roll albums of all time without a doubt and titled as MONTROSE. RIP R.M.

[@jefferykubitz4510]

I'm so happy I got to see him in concert. It was during the Warner Brothers presents Montrose album. Montrose opened for Foghat who opened for Black Oak Arkansas.

[@jimbrookfield9011]

Saw the same tour at Capitol Centre in Largo Md

[@grimdrum2396]

Ronnie had the talent, the ear and the inner drive to create some of the best rock guitar riffs of all time. Thank you Ronnie!

[@joeyhumphrey4536]

Well said. He truly did.

[@paulross6962]

i met Ronnie back in the 80s when he did i stint with the band RAIL he was so cool and we had so much fun i miss him what a great guy thanks for the great time we had Ronnie

[@plantfeeder6677]

This is so cool. Seeing Ronnie old still rocking brings smiles to my face and fires me up all over again. RIP Guitar God Versatle singer. Has a good Sammy voice and I'll bet he covers Bad Co. tunes also very good.

[@Brudnlaw67]

Been listening to Ronnie since I was a kid and now in my 50’s I’m just blown away by how good he plays!

[@Pineemonkeys2ndchannel]

What an incredible treasure. Ronnie was truly a master originator on guitar. Legendary even back in the 1970’s when he was creating the incredible tone he spoke thru his guitar 🎸

[@joeyhumphrey4536]

Absolutely Awesome! I always loved the guys in the 70"s that could shred a guitar. Ronnie was the best at it. RIP Ronnie

[@hlyangel1]

Good stuff! Love Ronnies playing and style. Long live his and the music Montrose made

[@edlococo4106]

RIP Ronnie. You were a rocker through and through. I enjoyed you music since I was a teenager.

[@sullyb23511]

The smile on Ronnie's face. 🙂

[@christanner3761]

So Great!!! Any rocker growing up in California in the 1970's remembers this great song. So many memories. Take's me right back to Sunken City in San Pedro, Ca. 1979. Smoking dope and rocking. Oh yeah, drinking 32 oz Budweisers too. Great Post.

[@RetiredinKorea8587]

this just smokes. Power trio with a great vocalist. Ronnie on fire. Been a fan since i was 15. One of my all time guitar heroes. Glad to see him playing these classic songs. Looks like they are having a ball. Rock n Roll.

[@jerrywoods4066]

He's been in my top 10 guitarists forever

[@carminevicale1849]

And what respect I have for a guy really knows music and makes that sound so beautiful

[@jockevans4682]

I saw him in his heyday at Rockefellers in Houston, he was awesome. Such a talent! Rock Candy & Rock the Nation. A true rock N roller! U can see it here. 🎸💞🙏

[@thechuckster6838]

This is fkn great! This boy can sing! RIP Ronnie!

[@rickoswald7423]

I don't know how may times I have watched this, Thank you! The band is tight, Randy Scoles is A+ on vocals. Great find by Montrose. Would have been cool they would have recorded some new music together. RIP Ronnie

[@haposwald3512]

Hey cuz! I listen to it a ton as well nothin will ever be close to Ronnies tone and sound

[@stevedahl6531]

Look up Keith St John singing this Montrose. He is so much better

Great songs from our lives, man. Legend. Never forget.

[@gearyheidinewaccount3237]

[@davidstovall8573]

Ronnie was my first guitar hero before Eric and Jimmy Page. Saw him at Wow Hall in Eugene, OR circa 2011. So much fun! His playing is so much fun to listen too!

[@JJF10101957]

That band in heaven just Rocks more and more every year.

[@brianholihan5497]

Honest, impassioned guitar playing from the heart. Music doesn't get any better. I miss Ronnie.

ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE, Ronnie is THE MAN !!!!

[@chmmm2565]

This is way better than great !!! This music makes me test the limits of stereo equipment. Rest peacefully Ronnie. And thank you for all this great music.

[@audionmusic2787]

I am a veteran of numerous live recordings at dive bars with bands of dubious talent. One night with these guys, Lord, that’s all I ask. 💰

[@daveriff5792]

Vocalist is somewhat of a cross between Sammy Hagar and Paul Rogers... at least to my ears. Great voice!

[@jkyles1000]

To me, he sounds more like Sammy Hagar than Sammy Hagar does.

[@heartfanjim01]

His voice isn't as high as Sammy's was when he was in Montrose.

[@richardthomas6196]

I seen Montrose and mountain paramount 73 in Seattle was the best Montrose blue mountain away

[@thedoobiesistersandsackbla5718]

@Redrum and kinda resembles paul too. hes damn good.

Wow. Ronnie passed away only three months later. He still had it till the end!

[@gregwhite9352]

I was there that night. I catered the after party for Ronnie's 64th birthday. Ronnie and his wife Leighsa were super cool. Listening to Ronnie tell stories about the different bands and people on the wall of pictures was awesome.

[@jamesdonnan6785]

[@dh-flies]

Thanks Stephanie. I had that voice about 30 years ago myself...I've sang most of Montrose's 1st three albums in various bands. Now only Sammy sings like Sammy...lol

[@vmat1000]

Killer little gig.. RIP, Ronnie, only pro i ever met, Keystone PA, '84. I'll never forget it.

[@hts513]

[@michaelbujanda8785]

[@lovemrsixx]

Ronnie's phenomenal guitar brilliance undoubtedly made him one of the GOAT's 🐐 🐐 🎶🎶🎸🔥🔥

[@treffbennett6534]

"I Got The Fire" = rifforama ecstasy! Ronnie up close and just killing it with his ferocious tone and always tasty choice of notes! Heaven gained yet another master musician!

[@thelastperfectman4139]

Montrose was one of the real hard rock guitar gods--big influence on a generation of guitarists.

[@mamothcar1]

This has such an awesome sound! Miss you Ronnie!

[@beclairful]

Your voice still rocks brother!! Oh yaaaaa!!! I’ve ALWAYS loved this song!! I love Montrose!! I’ve still got this album & the CD! ❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@garyoconnordbaairrepair7775]

In 1975 I saw a local band called Redwing, then Montrose, then Elvin Bishop and the Guess Who. Here in Sacramento.

[@Tipsy652]

Wow! He makes the guitar look effortless. Great live band

[@rustytime]

Ronnie was an original great for sure! This guy Randy Scoles sounds like Sammy and Gamma! Excellent! 🎸

[@tylerflorent6433]

Thank you Ronnie for giving us the music that we all love I still listen to you on records and always will.

[@achenlives]

Thank you for posting this intimate concert footage! Ronnie was a treasure.

[@armandochavez8722]

The singer is xtremely impressive he sounds a llot like Sammy Hagar and Davey Pattison.

[@mickmel1000]

Great singer and Ronnie

[@HiruS22]

Wow, love that the algorithm has dropped this my way, loved Montrose in the 70s and Ronnie sounds great here, wish I’d seen it earlier. Singer is great, a cross between Hagar and Klaus Meine and nails Voyager, one of my favourite songs ever. RIP Ronnie.

[@ruthbeck8316]

Ronnie is kicking some serious ass here!!!!!! I got the Fire !!!!!!!!!!!!!! May he rest In Peace!,,,,,,,,,,,,,!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hell Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@chromewarrior7959]

[@stratplayer2]

So much raw talent in those two hands...awesome to watch!

[@thomasscott8181]

Heard first Montrose album at 13 years old. Seen them in concert a year later at Greensboro Coliseum front row. Never forget it. Keep rocking.

[@faintinggoatsproductions567]

The guy on vocals nails Hagar’s voice. Excellent.

[@richardthomas6196]

It reminds of the paramount in Seattle Montrose old days and mountain Montrose blew mountain away

[@josephrz6230]

Davey as well as this guy sings better than Hagar, IMHO.

[@motorcitymanman7711]

Naw...Sammy's voice is deeper, this guy has a higher voice. Good singer, but I prefer the deeper tone of Hagar.

[@mr.c8033]

I would say, he's his own voice. Excellent.

[@TheElrocker]

I spend my time like there ain't gonna be no more.

[@tommydinkley9623]

Ronnie Montrose could damn sure rock the nation!

[@landslug]

One of the best ever, playing in a library. Fantastic

[@shcaskey]

ronnie is solid as a rock..singer is.....exceptional!!

[@MrJohnnyDistortion]

Rock In Peace Ronnie

[@richtomlinson7090]

Excellent job 👏. Everything is great, and the singer is very professional, doing a great version of that tone.

[@paulpace9237]

Legend. Should have been celebrated amongst the worlds other top guitarists.

[@waynebhase4436]

That is extremely tight playing, excellent,every musician and the amazing singer. Montrose looked like he was truly enjoying that. I saw his expression when the solo for I got the fire came, he kind of winced, but he nailed it good.

[@vladdracull9794]

Great Voice

[@1823sunset]

Sammy Hagar's evil twin !! In 73 I saw Ronnie playing for the Edgar Winter group. Was blown away by Ronnie's playing and antics in his white jump suit. A year later saw Montrose warming up for Humble Pie. Montrose tore the place up, Denny kicked a hole in his bass drum, the roadies hauled Humble Pie's bass drum out for him, threw a towel over the "Humble Pie" logo and they kept going. They blew the roof off that auditorium that night. Ronnie is unforgettable.

[@mariop.hermann33]

Terry Bell

[@bigdaddy7862]

The white jump suit in 73 was Rick Derringer not Ronnie Montrose

[@wbfojnewton1]

What an experience,I can only imagine.

[@mojoman566]

GREAT video. Thanks

[@wonderfulwino4265]

See that grin even the great Ronnie Montrose can't believe he came up with the opening riff to Rock the Nation.

[@kammer38]

So Awesome, thank you for sharing, and thank you Ronnie...you are missed

[@brickmason7301]

I got to see Ronnie in the 70s at a club and sat right next to the stage. I was amazed.

[@GRILLBUOY101]

Wow bet that was a good night

[@tooManywaystoFall]

God blessed us with Ronnie Montrose then like so many others he brought his jewel back home...

[@Gonzo-Guru]

Great video! Thanks for posting. Ronnie is the guy who turned me onto instrumental guitar music, and it's still my favorite type of music.

[@1970borntorun]

+John Eberl Me too. And unlike, Satriani and much of Vai's work, Ronnie never sounds cold and clinical like they often do. RIP Ronnie! The Bay Area misses you! :) ♫♫

[@shanhowe973]

Dearly missed by all

[@dominoeffect7]

RIP Mr.Montrose.

[@chrisruona410]

ronny montrose is missed deeply by all..he was really a great musican but better person who helped many starving artists make it to the big time..renoruona...reno nevada

[@stephenbroll6487]

met ronnie in newcastle england 1975 or76 on the warner brothers presents tour,told him after that performance i would throw away my guitar.met him ten years later,he remembered me and asked me if i'd thrown the guitar away.i told him i now had four and after watching gamma all four would go in the bin.GENIOUS sadly missed

[@noone-t8y]

Ronnie had a great memory for his fans. I met him at a show in Sacramento where he opened for Trower on. the Speed of Sound tour. When a mutual friend introduced us, the first thing he did was HAND ME HIS GUITAR! Neck like a baseball bat. He just knew I played. I thanked him for all the great music, and told him I loved his tone. He offered to sell me the rig when the tour was over. I took him up on that, and used it for years. Every time I saw him after that, it was first name basis. He made you feel important enough to remember. I loved him for that as much as for his incredible chops and tasty phrasing!

[@kenhunter2154]

Great story! Thanks!

[@michaelsteven1090]

He seemed happy..aw man Ronnie..RIP
