I am all about Richie Kotzen being my favorite artist ever. I mean his guitar playing, vocals, and songwriting abilities are just off the chart, and as far as I’m concerned, nobody hold a candle to him in any one of those categories. That said every member of this band are just absolutely phenoms.. bravo. They continue to get better every album. Best trio ever in my opinion

He’s like Chris Cornell (RIP) with cleaner timbre. He’s like Nuno with more exotic scales, and the band has unbelievable restraint.

Richie is great and all, but he's no Nuno.

Only three musicians but perhaps the greatest "super group" ever assembled! All three are kings in their own right! And Richie deserves a lot more from the music industry. He's loved by fellow musicians, but the industry has done him wrong for so many years. He may be content in his life now, but it doesn't mean that he can't still get the accolades he deserves.

Actually, there are 2 guitars often. And even maybe a synth during the chorus.

This is a perfect example of why these guys are so good. Richies guitar playing on this leaves a lot of open space that could easily be filled up by Billy and Mike going off, but they’re playing for the songs, not letting their egos get in the way. All three albums so far have been fire. How these guys are not selling out stadium shows is beyond me. Guys, whatever your writing process is… DON’T CHANGE IT. Whatever you’re doing is working.

My favorite rock bassist of all time! He brings the best out of everyone!

This just appeared in my feed. No idea who they are but they sound fkn amazing plus it's an original song in 2023 that sounds like something from the early to mid 80's. I'm hooked.

The Legendary Three Kings has still kicking the music scenes ❤️🤘

From song writing to guitar work unmatched NOBODY doing like this trio! NOBODY!

A legendary band that knows how to bring it!

Now....THAT'S what up! Slay'n it boys!!

I like that they all are keeping a simple groove that they are all locked in. None of them are playing too busy or obnoxious.

Jesus that solo was the best I’ve heard in years 🔥

Another perfectly crafted tune with master musicians who play to serve the song. Well done, gentlemen.

Рок жив и эти парни знают как он должен звучать и умеют его играть! На одном дыхании смотрел!! Браво!!!

most bands have one "star", this band has 3; another great offering from the winery dogs, my favorite band.

The amount of “IDGASF” exuding off of RK is astonishing. The very opening lick into the solo slaps you into full attention. In the middle of the solo Mike does three accents on the snare that Richie catches that is pure magic. Great song and astounding solo!

Man Richie figure picking is so smooth

Again, as great as the music is, Ritchie's voice is the ultimate glue to this excellent music.

For me at the moment the by far best Rock band around. 50 or more decades of Rock music packed into a lot of excellent, but also different songs, played from awesome, talented and skilled musicians, who not only do, what they can, but can, what they do! I especially love all this decently used 1970's Jazz Rock influences and harmonies, which you meanwhile hardly hear anywhere else, which make these songs even better, without altering the (Heavy) Rock character too much. Quite apart from the skills, concerning the instruments, Mr. Kotzen meanwhile also became for me one of the best rock singers since Chris Cornell! A really great, unique lead singer and an awesome guitarist at once is a rare combination, even less at this very high level. Just like great wine, these guy get better with age! I hope, this collaboration still will last for some time, this really is an excellent team. The best Power Trio ever in my opinion.

Guitar solo is awesome

PHENOMENAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Looking forward to see them in Berlin - October 2023 - 🎸🎸🎸

Let's cheer for Kotzen, R. Beach, and Bettencourt! What solos they have brought this year!

This is what you get from the 3 most talented guys on the planet a kick ass band that has never made a bad song....

The Best Band of rock of the last 10 years. Original rock, great songs, perfect harmony in musicality and virtuosity

great track for live impro

Lucky enough to catch "The Dogs" in London recently. Hugely memorable gig which had me grinning from ear to ear. Surely one of the most innovative and musically adept bands of the Century. 😎

Brilliant band. Reminds me of Jeff Beck Group and Cream. Solid rhythm lines.

I love the way this song sort of went off the rails during the instrumental section...the video kinda reminds me of the Time Stand Still video, modernized obviously.

Omg this is beyond perfect. Please please guys, come to France 🙏

Ritchie Kotzen.... Holy shit... I've been a fan since I saw him in the back of Guitar For The Practicing Musician back in the late 80s early 90s. He was so sick then... his style has morphed since then, and his voice...my man reminds me of Chris Cornell (may he R.I.P.).

I only discovered this line up about a year ago and this is another really fine track from 3 great artists, I must say though that Richies solos are filling a void left by Jeff Beck for me. Keep them coming guys you have found your sound. Top notch.

Beautiful song and the video rules! Richie's voice is amazing and his solo is very lyrical and impressive. Mike Portnoy is a god on drums, while Billy Sheehan is the master on bass. Phenomenal band, live or in the studio.

I didn't want to be the one to say it. It was finally nice to hear Billy Sheehan's Bass, sound like a Bass. He's talented as all hell, but not once have I ever liked the sound of his Bass. Scooped up mids, bottled up, no bottom end whatsoever. To actually hear lower tones come from him, made me listen to the whole song. Unbeknownst to me, it possesses an incredible guitar solo. So thanks Billy, because ever since Talas, I've kinda tuned you out, cuz you don't sound like a Bass. Now you do. :)

Must see these guys when they play Glasgow in October, what can you say about Portnoy and Sheehan other than they are absolutely immense. It is however Kotzen that grabs my attention, been listening to him for years, they guy is a truly incredible guitarist with a great vocal style. Three guys at the top of their career, briliant.

Great in many ways.

I love the people who think Billy is laying back on this, turn up your headphones folks he is slaying this deceptive groove

Sounds like Chris Cornell when singing, and a better Jeff Beck when playing maybe even some Danny Gatton too. I won’t even try to play it.Brilliant.

Kotzen is one of the original class of shredders who took his awesome technical ability and went totally different directions through his career. A supreme talent ... and with Portnoy and Sheehan, The Winery Dogs represents some of the best rock around, without question.

This song is so great! I keep replaying it. It's like a love child of Winery Dogs, The Doors, and The Who.

Richie endless talent

Kotzen just IS ....FIRE❤

Please don’t take to long to release another album IV 😎

Incredibly beautifull and impressive. Absolute respect. Cant express how much i love that one.
