Billy Idol just dripped of charisma, sex and attitude in the 80's. Total rock legend. Backed by a phenomenal guitarist in Steve Stevens bringing the killer riffs.
@dancrabbe64233 жыл бұрын
Steve Stevens is criminally underrated. The last time I saw them live, Steve played flamenco style guitar for his solo. That was a refreshing change from a guitarist just puking notes for 5 minutes. In the studio, Billy usually sang in a register that is kind to his voice as he ages. Plus, he takes care of himself and is in excellent shape. The shows are great! Go see the show if you get the chance.

Steve Stevens is a top notch 80s/90s shredder, renowned in the guitar community. He won a grammy for the Top Gun theme tune, and was guest guitarist on Michael Jackson’s Dirty Diana. He also has a unique ‘ray gun’ repeat sound on his guitar solos that he pioneered. Pretty sure he wrote the music and riffs for Billy Idol’s hits.

What i heard early on,i think it was actually my mom telling me this. Billy Idol was actually really shy,and if i remember right he had stage fright at one point,but he would losen up and turn into a totally different person once the music started playing. It was like touring became a theraphy for his shyness. He has always looked so fearless and (to some) almost cocky,but there is alot more then thoose first impressions with Billy Idol.

In the fickle world of rock music, guitarists often moved in and out of bands for many reasons. Creative differences, personality clashes, stolen girlfriends etc, it’s great to see these lifelong collaborations between the front man and his lead guitarist. Two alpha dogs sharing the spotlight. Sometimes the combination is pure magic.

Billy came out of early British Punk and was very nearly in the Sex Pistols. I am that old that I remember seeing him in his band Generation X around 1981 just before they broke up and he moved to the US. He took the idol name as a dig to a school teacher who used to call him idle. He actually started off as a guitarist in the early punk band Chelsea. The MTV era made him.

As mentioned the guitarist is Steve Stevens, a legend then & now. Billy Idol is still amazing but in the 80’s he was known as the Unicorn because he achieved something no other artist or band could. He was universally loved by all in a time where the camps were divided & clubs catered to specific groups (other than the AM radio places despised by all who cared about music). Only Billy Idol was played by the clubs/FM stations for New Wave/New Romantic, Punk, Headbangers & Metal Heads. Only at a Billy Idol concert could we all be there in our very different fashion (proud New Waver) and put aside our differences and rock out to the coolest man in music together.
