Uli Jon Roth & Electric Sun - Whistle Test 1985 (BBC Television Centre, London, England, 12.03.85)

[@stevesauck7001]

I met Uli a couple times after his shows. He’s a really humble down to earth guy.

[@69strathead]

Thank The Lord for Uli Jon Roth! This Album is a masterpiece and WAY WAY ahead of it's time . Uli is the greatest

[@fredandpattychandler4130]

No lip synching. Actually a real performance of these songs. Uli Jon Roth is one of the finest top 10 of innovative rock guitarist's of all time. Thank you for posting this gem from the 80's. Beautiful.

[@thomasconway6843]

Spiritual, too !!!

[@DylanWhite-k5j]

Nothing was ever mimed on Whistle Test expect in the early appearances.

[@koalacharlie9066]

Maybe you know more than you think......Uli is a wise person and one of the greatest musicians of all times...a charismatic soul...

[@d2vmusic]

Brilliant player.

[@ingwiefreak]

[@ZalMoxis]

[@mcafabio3762]

Uli Jon Roth, The Best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@kevinheath716]

I am one of Uli's biggest fans... but, that is out there.

[@jimir68]

I remember seeing this way back in 85, also managed to also catch Uli on tour the same year at the Mandela Hall, Queens University, Belfast. Thought I was going to get a kicking that night, was the only guy in the audience with short hair. Thanks Mr Kershaw for the patronising interview. ,

[@dodibenabba525]

The Mandela Hall! 🤣😆 could that get anymore left wing student!

[@shinsui_f_works]

Thank you for uploading this very valuable video.🙏😍 I'm getting to know that Uli Jon Roth is an incredibly amazing guitarist. And I'm amazed by Michael Flecksig's beautiful voice.🤩 I'm wondering why Ule Ritgen isn't in this video.🤔

[@SuperHalrod]

I used to listen to this while feeding 2-year-old thoroughbred racing colts in 1985. The colts loved this song more than me. Oh to be back in the western Chicago suburbs!

[@AndersonCamello]

thank's for share this beauty man

[@lachimdims]

I am sure that Alice was second person in wonderland, Uli was first there

[@tmst2199]

Uli is great, but I guess Electric Sun is a taste that must be acquired if you're an old Scorps fan.

[@charliejamz.]

70’s Scorpions is some of my favorite music ever written, and I’m a huge Electric Sun fan as well. Focus on the guitar. The first two Electric Sun albums are more of a direct rock and roll feel to them for the most part.

[@tmst2199]

@@charliejamz. Yeah. Just not doing it for me. I need better composition and melody. To each his own, I guess.

[@charliejamz.]

If anybody has melody, it’s Uli. I don’t think you know exactly what your looking for if that’s what you meant to say. Starlight is a beautiful melody, Indian Dawn, Cast Away Your Chains, Still So Many Lives Away, Burning Wheels Turning etc. All great compositions, with brilliant melodies.

[@tmst2199]

@@charliejamz. I could probably learn to love it but just think it's more of an acquired taste than, say, vintage Scorps.

[@haldunn5674]

At least four too many vocalists.

[@paulojosegavinhodesiqueira392]

The Greatest Masters of The Tremolo Whammy Bar. Hendrix Uli Roth and Eddie Van Halen.

[@williamgainford9332]

I luv uli to bits - but this what happens - when too much talent ego drugs are combined!!!!!!

[@patrickjaroch5084]

i Cant helpbut feel this is in some way responsible for the whole stonhenge thing in spinal tap

[@mindcontrol67]

It is that exactly.

[@HighOnFire1997]

Ulrich stoned as fuck haha. What a legend

[@dodibenabba525]

Blissed not stoned

[@publicanimal]

Not enough people in this band.

[@miguelmccullough5417]

What a gem this is. I prefer Earthquake and Firewind. Betond the Astriak skies! I di not care for. Although a very challenging attempt to nix claaical with Rock opera. Kinda of like a stepping stone for Uli. Cause be went on to create some his finest work . Like the double album Tracedental sky works. Excuse the butchering of the title

[@racheladkins6060]

Stuff Malmsteen? Uli Jon Roth was the original neo classical guitar.

[@nylonsteel]

Rick James and Meatloaf all star line up

[@kshoya9514]

and jim Carey

[@charliejamz.]

The main vocalist aside from Uli is probably the best singer Uli has ever had after Klause. All of them now are complete trash.. this guy has a couple annoying moments..

[@pathaden]

I disagree with the guy on this recent tour who is playing bass instead of guitar since the last one passed away. He's got great pipes. But before him ....YES his vocalists have been horrid besides Boals

[@charliejamz.]

idk, i think this guy now has a very annoying voice. I just seen uli in chicago friday and his singer DID get better than last year. Nobody can come close to Klause Meine

[@nickthebastard7566]

That is so bad it's hilarious. ,(no it's pathetic)

[@CloudsBeyond]

+Nick The Bastard He is legendary guitarist and music is too sophisticated for you to handle. Massive FART NOISE! to you.

[@huskvarsm]

shocking shyte.

[@CloudsBeyond]

+huskvarsm You're a One Direction and Justin Bieber fan so no chance you'd like Uli Jon Roth music! May your flatulence be perpetual!

[@barfly946]

Horrible overblown pretentious bollox.

[@UphillGardener-ly5sh]

Not really, perhaps it's just the music they want to play, maybe you would be happier with something more mainstream

[@SammiCurr]

I'm actually a big fan of the first 2 Electric Sun albums but this is awful. Sorry Uli
