Always a fan of Skid Row. Dave Sabo just seems the most humble guy in rock. Complete gent and a massive inspiration. I have 2 kramers, striker and a Beretta. Love em.

I love Skid Row's 1st and 2nd albums. They are one of the bands I really remember listening to growing up.

I grew up on classic rock, heavy metal, hair metal, and glam metal. I loved Skid Row. Their first two albums--FRICKIN AWESOME. Saw them several times live between 1989-1995. I met the band in 1992 at a bar in Louisville, KY after their concert--Pantera opened. I just ordered Snake's Kramer today from Sweetwater to honor my love for the band.

Awesome Skid Row were huge part of my youth and wow Snake was a killer player

Wow I honestly never knew Andertons were so well known.. I live just down the road and Snake Sabo is describing them as "legendary".. wow!!

Monkey Business is criminally underrated. Great HEAVY Riff!

Snake is undeniably one of the most humble, genuine, and supreme guitarist of any generation and genre of music there has been and ever will be. He’s never lost sight of what’s important in life.

Thanks for this Capt...Snake is a total legend, that first Skid Row album was part of the soundtrack to my youth ❤️

Snake Sabo?!?! Awesome, I'm on this like a rat on a Cheetoh!! 😀🐀

Dave is so down to earth and an underrated player. Great talk with him. Does anyone doubt that Baz is the problem?!

Sweet humble nicest guys I ever watched! He's the Only Rockstar I knew, the one who jumped out from the stage in the middle of show to helped a girl who's knocked down by the crowd! What a gentleman!

This is sweet! Skid Row got me into playing the guitar.

That was fantastic, I am in my mid 40.s. and I was growing up ,skid row, white lion, extreme, poison and G n R....... big part of my life.

Really enjoying this one! Snake seems like such a cool dude.

I just bought the guitar. I absolutely love it. It sounds great and plays awesome

Thanks for a legendary Sunday morning Andertons! Cheers Captain and Snake Sabo!!

My first real love for music was with Skid Row! And they were also my first show me and my friends went to at age 12 in Gothenburg 91... 🤘

Great interview. As a long time viewer I was completely stoked to see you interview Dave 'The Snake' Sabo as he is a real guitar hero of mine. Skid Row were a massive part of my youth and I still play "I Remember You' about 6 times a day as the outro is my go to riff for tuning. Would love to see these guys play again & I still love Kramer guitars.

My teenage years right there & still part of my daily ear candy 🤘😉

I also thought Scotty Hill was one of the best lead guitarist of the bunch back in those hair rock days . His solos just nailed every song .Incredible tone and feel .If they come to your place in the UK make sure Scotty is with him .

great interview-love the history and insight

Love snake,snake and hill such an awesome duo! Massive influence for me in my teen years 👍

I so remember seeing "Peice of me" video first being o tv and thinking how much I loved his guitar back then. I ended up buying a 1990 Kramer Nightswan ( which I still have), and recently a couple days ago received Dave Sabo's signature Kramer and was blown away, absolutely slamming guitar! I sold my special edition Gibson Les Paul studio alpine white with Ebony finger board 2010 model to get my Sabo model. That was a hard decision, but between my Nightswan and Hamer Californian I love that era of guitars, I still have my 2004 Zakk Wylde Epiphone Les Paul so it's all good lol. Dave's such a chill guy, awesome video, cheers!

Love Skid Row!!!

Thanks for this Lee. In this run of interviews supporting the sig guitar, Snake comes across as such a genuine and nice guy. Saw Skid Row not long before lockdown kicked in. Damn good gig and a reminder of the good old days. It's interesting that in the eyes of the the hip, fashion driven media, there was some big cliff edge in musical taste but as I recall, the new bands, like Nirvana, were absorbed into the culture and everything carried on, within the rock sub-culture. The change seemed much mnore gradual to me and was mostly driven by the music business trying to make profits out of the new big thing and ditching the old thing. Of course, that's how the media and music business work.

I totally agree with this. I've been saying this for a long time. My recollection of the early 90s was a period of time when Rock fans cranked out Skid Row and Metallica and GnR, at the same time as Nirvana, Pearl Jam and The Black Crowes. The music biz stories say that 80s bands were dropped overnight, but it didn't feel like that on the ground.

Got the Snake Sabo Baretta, and I love it. I through a couple of F-U Tone upgrades on it and it's awesome.

I was born in 86 and my dad was into kiss -Aerosmith-Skid row -Ozzy - ZZTop - Van Halen - Whitesnake an more so when we where in a car I would listen an was into all of these bands . I wanted to play after seeing my dad try an play guitar. I first got a Acoustic an my dad was like if you can play Elvis -love me tinder for your nanny I will buy u an electric guitar. An I did an I got a ruby red 84 barrette from pawn shop. It had a chip in headstock an had play it till I was 14 . Dad called me while playing it an it went into wall an snapped the neck. Today I’m still playing I’m 35 an just ordered the Kramer barrette special candy blue today. I can’t wait to relearn Skid row Snake 🐍 your awesome 👏 🤘🏼🎸🤘🏼

Great new singer... sounds amazing

Love Snake. Saw Skid Row a ton of time in the 90s. Shame they cant get on with Seb but thanks for the memories!

I mean this in the most heartfelt possible way,but Dave is not only a great songwriter and guitar player but also the most articulate stoner I’ve ever seen 😉🤘🎸

Wow!!! What a nice man! 🙏🏽❤️

every guitar player needs a little bit sabo in there life i say great guy and player and writer. ty lee for a great interview.

How cool and unexpected !!!

You need to do a comparison of 2 different Kramers - call it Kramer Vs Kramer. Btw, Skid Row @ Playhouse in 91 was one of the best gigs EVER.

Skid Row and Aerosmith was my first concert on 12/31/89 at the Old Boston Garden. Also saw them headlining with Pantera

This is 2 days in a row the ADA MP-1 was brought up. I got an order for a Smashing Pumpkins GISH sound. All MP-1 Preamp.

"All music"... 100% correct!

Snake Sabo is a Beast

Uber under rated guitarist!!!

Very Cool

Saw Skid Row opening for Guns N' Roses 91.

I feel a bit like Lee wasn't a Skid Row fan and so, with limited reference, has positioned Snake as a Hair metal shredder and focussed the conversation on the demise of the Shred guitar movement, which Snake is then left awkwardly having to defend. I don't think anyone would have that conversation with Slash. Skid Row were a cut above other bands of that period, the riffs are insanely good, Sebastian was a jaw dropping vocalist, the songs were classics. There is some speculation that if Appetite had never dropped then 'Slave to the the Grind' would have been the Hard-Rock album of the 80's.

@msmoniz

3 жыл бұрын

Agree with everything you said except for the fact Slave To The Grind was released in 1991 making it probably the best Hard Rock album of the 90's that holds its own with AIC Facelift, Dirt or Soundgarden Badmoterfinger. It showed Skid Row was more a melodic hard rock band than a hair metal shred band.

Dear Captain, Now that you've invited a great New Jersey guy, would you consider inviting a Long Islander in the person of Buck Dharma from Blue Oyster Cult? :) He's such an inspired player with a strong personality and I bet he's got stories to tell. Cheers !

To answer your questions, he wasn't kicked out. It was a mutual split. There's no bad blood because Jon and Snake made a pact on whoever made it big first, they'll help the other get signed. It happened to be Job helping out Snake in this case. They're still great friends today.

I've noticed this a bit recently, used to be pretty much the opposite. I say this sitting next to a frost Silver Sky I got from Andertons for 1,999. £400 off in the Jan sale 2019!

I've seen that a lot with Kramers, it's not just Andertons. In the US I can check Sweetwater and then go on Zzounds and see the exact same Kramer for $100 less.

Grunge didn't seem to affect Skid Rows popularity like it did other bands. They were still huge through it, until the band started to fall apart.

He should've joined Bon Jovi when Richie left.

All I can see is Hank Azaria with a wig on 😂

Dave, call Seb, bury the hatchet and get the proper line up back together. If you guys could even come close to recapturing the sound of 'Slave..' it would be incredible

Hank Azaria in a wig?

Get Yngwie malmsteen on please 😂
