Billy Duffy - one of my top 5 guitarists, criminally underrated.

[@rpaasse6453]

True

[@archangel5627]

I completely agree with you. Billy Duffy is an amazing guitar player and he has one of the best and most recognizable guitar sounds in Rock. He’s totally a criminally underrated musician. Ian Asbury is another underrated person in music. Ian has a fantastic voice and he still sounds amazing to this day! The Cult are just an all around great band!💪🏻🤘🏻😎

[@niksanike6583]

It’s not underrated, just every band, singer,guitarist are in shadow of old big stars, like : Bowie, Freddy, plant, lennon ,jagger etc for singers, and for guitarist : hendrix, jj cale, page, jeff beck, mick ronson &, drummers: Keith Moon, Bonzo, danis davis etc , and when people spoke of greatest, no place for new/ newish artist. You know what i mean. Cult is awsome band last 40 yeras, Ian Astbury what a voice, duffy maestro on guitar!

[@fluff2001]

Listen to the entire She Sells Sanctuary and notice how perfect Duffy is tuned and in step they all are ..... They were a 3 piece in the 80's. They've added 2 today. This is one of the most hard rocking bands in history kids...... the 80/s they were absolute magic on stage but the thing to remember is how raw and real they were and are .... No crazy ass bells and whistles just real guitar rock ! Pease from 53 year old Texan .........

[@archie6962]

[@silat13]

They were never a 3 piece.

[@wesrogers7630]

Jamie never got the attention he deserved. Mist english bassist played a more pop or dance drum beat in other bands similar,but Jamie plays straight up blues back beat with the drummer. That gives Duffy's psychedelic spacious beautiful guitar sound such a rocking song. The blended perfectly. Love is one of my all time favorite albums but most anything by the Cult is always worth it. Stay safe

Jamie switched from Bass to Rhythm guitar and the Bass was covered by the bassist from Zodiac Mindwarp on the Electric tour.

What’s so iconic, besides each of their individual RAW talent and collective PURE ORIGINAL ROCK & ROLL sound is how they give each other space to play, hold the limelight, and fully express their gift.

I watched them do the 5 straight night at Hammersmith Odeon on the Electric Tour. I must dig out my photos one day. Brixton Academy was up close and personal always and the best place I saw them gig on the Love Tour with Zodiac Mindwarp and the Love Reaction / Gaye Bikers on Acid. They then built up to Wembley Arena and it got overblown and impersonal. The second night was a nightmare with Ian drunk on stage and he couldn’t be arsed to sing.

@@martymartin904 I like them, too. However, SDC was a different band, with Astbury the only link to the Cult. Billy was in Theatre of Hate at that time, Jamie was playing rhythm guitar with Ritual, Nigel Preston was with Sex Gang Children. The rest of the line-up of SDC went on to form Getting the Fear with Bee on vocals, before Bee and Barry sheared off to found the excellent Into a Circle. Death Cult, on the other hand, was effectively the same band as The Cult. Ian, Billy and Jamie were all part of it, with Ray Mondo on drums. He then joined Sex Gang Children and Sex Gang's (and former Theatre of Hate) drummer Nigel Preston joined Death Cult. When the group performed their first gig under the truncated name The Cult at the Lyceum in London, the tickets still had "Death Cult" printed on them.
