Classic Rock Revisited's Jeb Wright and Jesse Lee recently spoke with Winger/Whitesnake guitarist Reb Beach for the "Decades Of Distortion" show on the Arkansas City, Kansas radio station KACY 102.5 FM.

When asked about the comparisons between his playing and that of Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett, Beach said, "I don't know the guy [Kirk], but I think he's one of the worst guitar players I've ever heard in my life. I've never heard a solo from that guy that was any good. . . This guy is out of tune, and his vibration... what is it? Vibrato. Oh my god. It sounds like a beginner."

He continued, "Back in the '80s, he was always voted best guitar player, and I'm like, 'What?! That guy is terrible.' I hate to say that because I might meet him one day.

What's he play in? Megadeth? Metallica? Is he in Metallica? Oh, then I have no problem doing that because in their biggest video, 'Nothing Else Matters,' when they threw darts at a poster of Kip Winger, and then they showed it live — 20,000 people every night laughing at Winger — I don't mind saying that Kirk Hammett sucks.

Sounds like Mr Beach is a wee bit bitter no matter how true his statement may be!

Continuing with ONE OF THE WORST GUITAR PLAYERS I'VE EVER HEARD

A paragraph on the absolute contradiction to Randy Rhoads and Jake E. Lee.

So, I've given it a chance and I've watched probably every other video which exists on Youtube of this guy Zakk Wylde, and the conclusion I've come to is that he has no control over the noise which proceeds forth from his guitar, and he just really can't play guitar. He's terrible. I don't mean anything personal, as he may be an alright kind-of guy. I get the stage thing, too, but, he obviously sacrifices playablity when he's standing there trying to do something that looks cool and play something cleanly, and it ends up sounding like total crap. I listen to him, and his licks are basically the standard second or third week guitar lesson material. Not one to to favor hot licks entirely over rhythm chops, his rhythms are sloppy shit, too. He plays shit, and his playing is crap.

Ofcourse, the presumption would be that he should take much more care to perform his "solo" material just right, but, Black Label Society "music" is not deserving of top-notch performance. It's really just a bunch of boneheaded noise which would be suitable only as entertainment for the modern day cult of Clovus people, and when he's not striking some sort-of Viking's Heroic Pause for Death scene or the as yet titled Bedrock Shifting Flatulence Stance for Yoga enthusiasts, all that he's really doing is standing there with his ass pointed at the audience. I mean, come on, let's face it . . . not the kind of treatment I would pay for. Therefore, I must assume that his perspective on all that shitty noise is that he's actually creating something worthwhile, something which is a delight to listen to; though, certainly not clean. Guess that's his business. But, damn, I'm satisfied that I haven't bought any Ozzy shit since Jake E. split.
