The Best Solos of Warren DeMartini - RATT

[@DamianoChristian]

For all of you who suggested George Lynch here’s Episode 2! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWrRaIF-ppmNgKM

[@HiredGoonage]

love seeing the young dudes getting into the 80's metal

[@DamianoChristian]

Hired Goonage thank you so much!! Check out the newest episode: George Lynch! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWrRaIF-ppmNgKM

[@BillMoorehouse]

Yeah good call!

[@dennismetzger9287]

Well if this guy is anything like me he looks young af and is mid aged lmao

[@claypage1089]

I am 49, and I grew up in the era of EVH, Randy, Lynch, etc. What helped me a lot was to go back and listen to Page, Blackmore, Hendrix, and even Shultz. Good playing is good playing--forget the year.

[@HiredGoonage]

@@claypage1089 sorry dude, you aren't a young guy. 80s metal and classic rock are quite different. I appreciate the classic rock guitarists but they aren't on the same level in terms of virtuosity

[@Ishbu101]

demartini is so underrated...he should be up there with slash and the other guys. His solos are super technical and tasty

[@andysalter7192]

Wouldn't call them " super technical" but there awesome solos .

[@robplante8631]

Tasty is an understatement! Always loved his feel, groove and ability to let 'er rip.

[@tommcdonough6086]

Warren is not underated, he is a guitar god absolute LEGEND, with his own gritty, scratchy, aggressive, crunchy tone.My personal favorite from the era and the most talented. Next to EDDIE, WARREN TORCH DEMARTINI is my favorite guitarist of all time. He needs to come out of retirement it's in his blood and his fans love him. In my humble opinion Warren was the best lead guitarist of any of the hair bands, to each their own. Peace..........

[@chrisfragomeni6744]

Finally!!! The next generation of young badasses, loving our incredible 80's metal music! Take a look Millenials!!!

[@yosheyoshe9767]

well done/great playing. I'm probably your dads age graduated in 82 and we would drive the country roads with Ratt full blast smoking and drinking. I saw Ratt 4 times

[@DamianoChristian]

Thank you so much! Yeah my dad turned 52 back in January. My dad saw the invasion tour in 85 at the New Haven Colosseum here in Connecticut hence my shirt. Check out my newest episode: George Lynch! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWrRaIF-ppmNgKM

[@raymondbarreras8153]

Wow, I only seen them once but it was kind of monumental. It was during the TimeCoast EP buzz before they broke big, I think at the Roxy in L A. Warren left Ratt for some reason & Marq Torien ( BulletBoys vocalist ) was on guitar in that brief time period. Great show

[@Nickk81]

Amazing vid

[@tommcdonough6086]

RATT really started rolling in 84 when I was 16 in highschool still one of my favorite bands of all time, Warren is a guitar god absolute LEGEND. Great to see younger people digging the music so many of us grew up on. You nailed Warrens aggressive, crunchy, scratchy, gritty tone. If WARREN ever saw this he would be smiling ear to ear great job.

[@evalex71]

Hell yes

[@justiceforall3973]

Invasion of your privacy has the greatest album cover ever! Love the t-shirt and love the album. And definitely love Ratt! Ratt-n-Roll 4-ever! 🤘🏼

[@vaadaenmacchi]

Nobody rides for free is their best song imo

[@DanCarollo]

Just stunning. Well done. Brings back great memories of my teen years listening to RATT.

[@СнэйкПлискин]

Good play, good choice, good band. Young man like glam metal, like Ratt🤝🤘

[@DamianoChristian]

Thank you so much!! Check out the newest episode: George Lynch! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWrRaIF-ppmNgKM

[@katecarroll7349]

NICE!!! First saw Damiano Christian play at a Station Club Fire Memorial benefit held in North Kingstown, RI. The band was Ozzy America, and I was BLOWN AWAY by his indisputable talent, amazing stage presence and undeniable likeness to Randy Rhoads. Ozzy America headlined, and when I tell you that every single person in the audience was literally gasping in awe, I promise you I am not exaggerating. And he was only 18!!! Rock on Damiano!!

[@tomkenny5864]

Very good job badass playing badass sound and guitar is nice too

[@LiveFireCulinary]

Dang, man, I had to do a double-take! 35 or so years ago I had those EXACT posters on my wall! Along with a couple of Maiden posters and one each of Heather Thomas and Heather Locklear 😂 Nice job, man, love seein' the younger generation have an appreciation for the music I loved then and still do. 👊

[@heathfoster351]

Great job!!! Give him a shot.

[@1990Co]

Dude you're the man

[@raymondbarreras8153]

Dude, crazy guitar graphics, it’s like your a step ahead! Cool playing too

[@Cerro87]

Great guitar work! I really enjoyed watching the rhythm section too so thanks for including that.

[@DamianoChristian]

Thank you so much! Yeah I definitely wanted to also do rhythm mainly because the backing tracks had no rhythm guitar and I thought split screen would look cool! You'll totally dig episode 2 then where I did George lynch! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWrRaIF-ppmNgKM

[@brandonpatterson6222]

Great job man. Sometimes I feel like I’m the only one that listens to good music. After seeing this I know I’m not. Subscribe

[@robertobaldizon8206]

Awesome..!!!!

[@briangisler1981]

The greatest guitar player to of ever walked this planet in my opinion is on the wall behind you.

[@DamianoChristian]

I totally agree, he’s the reason I started guitar when I was 11! You’ll definitely dig my Randy Rhoads covers then, check it out! I also play in an Ozzy tribute called OZZmosis from Massachusetts! #RRForever kzbin.info/aero/PLl_aElTAITspfgJchkNXme3SNgV6lsXNE

[@laz4erin]

Damn; 1985 tee? Nice to see it was kept in perfect condition. And of course - THE SKILLS! WOOT!

[@DamianoChristian]

laz4erin The funny thing was that shirt was in the bottom of a box that belonged to my dad and was left in his moms basement for almost 30 years with mice and everything you think would destroy clothing. Mostly everything in that box was eaten up accept for that shirt! make sure you check out the next episode though where i covered George Lynch! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWrRaIF-ppmNgKM

[@alfredogarza3804]

Bro eres el mejor, los 80s son los mejores años del rock, fue mi inspiración para la guitarra, que gusto me da ver que no mueran los 80s🤘🏽🎸🎧🎭

[@irocitZ]

Excellent taste in music, hopefully you'll get a call if they didn't hire a guitar player yet. I mean, you got the songs, poses, facial expressions down pat and a cool looking guitar. What's Ratt waiting for? Good luck...

[@DamianoChristian]

irocit z they still haven’t hired anyone yet that I know of. What Ratts waiting for you ask? Their manager told me no auditions till the governor of California lifts their gathering ban that’s still in place right now.

[@irocitZ]

@@DamianoChristian don't stop bothering them, if you do that they can't forget. I really thought the lineup with Carlos in the band was perfect, when he first joined I remember thinking Ratt just hit the Heavy Metal jackpot. He stayed in shape, still has the cool hair, plays a Jackson and does it well. All that needed to happen was Bobby to come back, I know he would if they'd let him. Now its all messed up, through the years I've seen every lineup, I even have a Robin guitar pick from the Invasion tour, it has the year on it 85-86.

[@lookingatcrap]

I used to have that exact shirt purple and all

[@The80sKidRox]

Awsome channel. Glad I discovered ya bro. Like and Sub. Ratt n roll 🤘🤘👍

[@Jp421JP]

You know you got passion when you are throwing muses while playing.

[@alvomusica]

Ratt is a great band

[@parizaadmikayla3833]

Yes my dear Ratt is really a great band indeed! Long Live Ratt n Roll

[@bradfordmcdermott2063]

Amazing job

[@jayslack41]

You deserve the gig

[@DamianoChristian]

I eventually was told by management I was too young and didn’t live close enough to LA lol. I was 21 when I did this and already been performing professionally in bands around the country since I was 15 lugging all my own gear and everything. I would’ve done it and made it work for them. I guess age matters though to a bunch of guys who were doing this 40 years ago when they were my age!! Haha

[@jsilva01]

Is a Charvel neck similar to a Strat?

[@holysmoke8439]

Also that's the only guitar string i ever played after I sound tested everything back when I worked at G center. working with alotta distortion pedals turned up high is we're these strings beat the others were the others would start to break up at high distortion settings.

[@camcahill]

Dude I hope you make it into ratt that would be awesome don’t forget us small guitar players down here 😂 best of luck you kicked ass

[@DamianoChristian]

I'd love to make it into Ratt, word going around though is I "dont have enough on the road experience" which is all I've been doing the past 4 years lol make sure you check out episode 2 where I covered George lynch ! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWrRaIF-ppmNgKM

[@chriskey7426]

Bro where did you find that bolt guitar I've looked for years and could never find one!

[@DamianoChristian]

it was my fathers, he got it from a private seller on eBay when I was a little kid. It’s actually one of the first Prototypes Bolts made according to Wayne himself.

[@chriskey7426]

@@DamianoChristian that's awesome bro🤘🏻

[@zikkicharade]

What is that glam piece of history guitar?

[@DamianoChristian]

Zikki Charade it’s a Bolt Guitar by Wayne bolt from Kramer !

[@goebify]

I don't get it. I see so many great, millennial, shredders on KZbin playing some of the best metal riffs ever and usually without flaw and yet today's music lacks so much of this. Very frustrating. Great job and I hope we can somehow get some new metal sounds out there before it is too late.

[@johnj.baranski6553]

what clubs are they playing...what AR guys from th3 labels are out there looking and listening. that part of the industry is no more so how will talent be found?

[@andysalter7192]

Cause no one young cares about Rock or Metal music anymore. There is ZERO support for Rock in the industry, it's had its day ! Just be happy you got to live in a time when rock music was the biggest thing around. I don't know the future and who knows maybe it will make a comeback in some form but I really doubt it . Just like Jazz , Blues , Classical and Disco it is now a genre for people of a certain age .

[@jefferyyounce5372]

What $ would it take to get you to jam in the south?

[@thegreat3248]

Dude! You need to apply for the guitar position that’s open with Ratt! If you don’t you’re a fool you have the talent I’m sure they would like to hear your solos👍

[@DamianoChristian]

@The Great hey man thank you so much! I’ve already contacted their manager and Mr.Pearcy has my video due to a good friend of mine. Was told they aren’t holding auditions now due to Covid-19 so now I just sit, wait and hope they reach back out to me. I would definitely love to have the gig if offered it though!

[@blainethemono19]

Really think you're playing is great! On a tone front, curious if you're happy with the Marshall. I dunno but those amps always seem too fuzzy and a bit weak for the shred solos. Always interested to get opinions. Keep it up dude!

[@danielludlow8960]

I remember driving down the road...banging my head and people laughing...never understanding wanting to understand what it meant to me.

Your guitar sounds so processed. The best audition for Ratt is from an account called “Torch Levi” He’s got great tone, too bad he’s not active anymore

[@DamianoChristian]

Bhaskar Yadav what did you mean “whats the amp doing in the back?” Am I supposed to play behind my amp? 😂 look it was my first time doing a pro video recording with protools. My interface had not arrived yet so I used voice memos on my phone to record my amp like a microphone then uploaded the sound files to protools
