Zakk Wylde-Mississippi Queen-Reaction!!!!!!!

[@deborahcornell171]

That was impressive! But I really love the 1970 original by Mountain featuring the great Leslie West (and a lot of cowbell, less than 3 min.long but packs a punch). This guy's version is definitely worthy.

[@rmstacy5295]

this doesn't hold a candle to the original

[@davidignatiusbalestreri1737]

@@rmstacy5295 My fist LP purchase in 1970. Mountain "Climbing". Leslie West's playing was as tasteful as pumpkin pie and Cool Whip.

HOLY SHIT!!!! Did I just watch Zakk Wylde strangle a electric guitar berserk out from an acoustical guitar? That man is mighty. lol

[@williamh.2982]

@James Smith, man Zakk sure can bend them strings.. I tried to play but no skills.. Rock on Zakk !!!!!

[@jeannettekyzer2178]

Great cover of this song but nobody does it better then Mountain lol this song came out in 1970. I'm just glad to see that the music I grew up listening to is still played today💖 Ty it looks like it took everything you had to stay in your seat😂. Great reaction lol.

[@Leon-wz1js]

I think that is the reason why there weren't that many claps. The covered song didn't really try to make it's own sound, or add anything to the original. Disturb's Sound of Silence, covered the song, but made it their own. This cover didn't sound like anything more than a poor cover of the original.

[@walkingwounded3824]

This was a tribute show, band didn't really know each other and maybe ran through it once or twice before hand, you can't judge them for this! Look at the musicianship! This was for the great Les Paul and Zakk was there to showcase his playing and Gibson guitar, not sell records. He is one of the most successful guitarist in history, look it up on Wikipedia!

[@itsallgood4093]

Walking Wounded well if it said so on Wikipedia. . .

[@walkingwounded3824]

I know, sounds stupid! You got me there. I actually have seen his name in credits for guesting on some albums, doing studio work for movies and TV. All of which I was unaware before seeing it there.

[@larryg7126]

Agree that mountain original is the best but this is a great cover. I grew up in 60's & served in the army in 70's all that music was great then & now. Zakk grew up about 20 miles from where I live now.

[@form_52]

Zakk Wylde is one of my favorite guitarists. Check out his band Black Label Society. A song called In This River. Amazing. Or an older band he did called Pride and Glory. Had a much more southern rock kind of feel mixed with some bluegrass vibes.

[@jeddodon]

I second that...that's my favorite song of his. Zakk is the definition of a true musician/Badass.

[@peterworth9403]

Pride and Glory was a masterpiece.

[@g2s2j2]

agree with everyone. If you want to see a fun throw away song he did, check out "Porn Star Dancing", with the band My Darkest Days, featuring Ludacris... (also know as Nickelback Jr.)

[@robbijohnson6983]

Form52 And don't forget about that little band named after the singer OZZY 🤘

SWEET JESUS ❤

[@slickmic6113]

Zakk Wylde.. a lot of the great guitar players are gone but at least he's still here!!

[@mistymichele3771]

I'm so happy you've discovered the Berserker BEAST that is Zakk Wylde... he is one of the absolute best! He has a softer side,too, and it's just as amazing. My fave is In This River, it has so much raw emotion in it that it hits you in the feels every time. I'd love for you to check it out, then learn the story behind the video and what the song means to Zakk. Powerful stuff.

I have NEVER heard an accoustic guitar sound like THAT!!!!!! Speechless

[@southernenigma3427]

Zakk is crazy insane on the guitar!

[@dimensionalencounter3689]

Zakk is awesome; I grew up trying to play his riffs when he was with the prince of darkness and then when he came out with black label society and I went to Ozzfest and saw him live I was blown away. To this day I still buy his albums. Next on my list is a Wylde Audio guitar which is his guitar line. Yup there are people like me that wake up every morning and drink Valhalla Coffee and watch his videos he posts with his exorcist doll, living and breathing the Viking guitarist way. Glad to be part of his society.

[@randytritt4610]

Jamie York bleeding the black brother!! SDMF!!!🤘🎸🤘🎸🤘

[@mrfister1223]

To do what Zakk did on the acoustic guitar is unheard of... PURE TALENT!

[@troyalcorn1184]

We need more cowbell. hehe I know someone out there will get what I am saying. :)

[@jingei]

Yeah, with all that flashy guitar, he overpowered the cowbell. Shame on him!

[@tucoramirez8397]

Christopher Walken just cringed at that statement.

[@donaldbeaverson8144]

Lol

[@cajun812]

Zakk Wylde (a twist on "Wild") was the 80's replacement guitarist for Ozzy Osbourne, and founder of his own band, Black Label Society. He's mainly heavy metal, but he's one of those rare musicians all over the musical spectrum, playing multiple instruments. You can find a video or two playing piano on slower songs like "In This River".

[@cbilky2914]

70s Rock is awesome!! some serious riffs in the 70s Rock and Roll era

[@robertmooney7356]

Miss. Rhonda, your absolutely right! What makes it special is the fact that we were there when it first came out. We got to listen to it like our bro here is doing it now. I take nothing away from Zakk, the man has fire! Peace love, and understanding! Soooo baad Ty!

[@lisacrites3318]

I love that you checked out Zakk! I’m a country girl and boyfriend is a metal head and Zakk is 1 of our common ground artists that we both can listen to. Another great band is Volbeat that you should check out. A Warriors Call, Still Counting, Heaven nor Hell, and I Only Wanna Be With You are all great songs by them. Just wanna say you’re awesome and I really enjoy watching all your videos.

Zakk was Amazing in Pride & Glory. I seen them live....Zakk ran into the audience playing! He bit open a bottle of beer, and chewed the glass

[@theresaplate6239]

If you really want to hear a mind blowing song by Zakk Wylde try the accoustic version of "Stillborn". It will make you cry!

[@vanitamann7985]

Great job! I saw Mountain in Houston, Texas in the '70's and I just love Leslie West singing this.

[@brycebullard3619]

This is so cool. So glad you did this reaction. This video has been overlooked or just unfound by most reactors out there. Such a small intimate venue too. That must have been some concert. He does Voodoo Child at this concert as well. It is on KZbin.

[@douglasdorman9322]

Zakk and the original writer Leslie West and his band Mountain are super tight.... Zakk calls him Dad, thinks he and his Mom were together, haha,Mountains Mississippi Queen, the original is great, Zakk just ripped, as usual the guitar, he has free reign with it, again as him and Leslie are great friends. ..

[@garybond5820]

Love these reaction videos. Especially when it’s something I love. I respect open mindedness so much the fact you’re able to go outside your comfort zone and truly appreciate the music for what it is. I lived down the street from Zakk Wylde before he evolved into the grungy biker look he now owns. The guy is an amazing musician one of the sickest guitarists alive no question.

Gotta punch my eyeballs back inside my head!!! When I saw that Zakk was gonna play this acoustic style I thought... well it IS Zakk the greatest and yep he was holding an acoustic guitar but it had a nice pickup that delivered Zakk's mojo....... Reminds me of when I got my first guitar at age 13 or 14.. My Mom was against it because she didn't want any noise like what I was already playing from records and tapes. I told her that it wouldn't be loud cuz it wasn't an electric guitar. WELL, at one journey to my favorite pawn shop I saw a pickup to fit an acoustic guitar... Heh Heh... sorry Mom.....

[@deannacrownover3]
