Steve Clark was a very influential guitar player that inspired many people to pick up and learn guitar. He was the lead guitarist in Def Leppard until his untimely death. He was well known for playing Les Pauls and one that he is most noted for besides the 3 pickup white les Paul custom is his XR-1. Now I’m not review his personal XR-1, but I am reviewing a very early version of the XR-1 Series. I also discuss the differences between the XR-1, XR-2, and XR-III (XR-3)

I actually didn’t know Steven used this guitar until after I had purchased this guitar. That made it much cooler, but I initially sought this one out for its Goldburst finish. This was a very shortly lived finish in the early 80s that Gibson did. Most guitars finished in this color were sent back under warranty to be refinished because the metal flake in this guitar’s finish cause the finish to ‘orange peel.’ This means, instead of a nice smooth, glossy feel, it is textured like the outside of an Orange Fruit.

After playing some Def Leppard that I hastily learned right before recording, I felt a strange bond to this guitar. Def Leppard had some great hits and it was fun to get to try this one out!

About the Site 🌐

This site provides links to random videos hosted at YouTube, with the emphasis on random. 🎥

Origins of the Idea 🌱

The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. 🧠

Challenges Faced 🤔

Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.

Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. 🔍

Creating Truly Random Links 🛠️

The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.

About YouTube 📺

YouTube, an American video-sharing website based in San Bruno, California, offers a diverse range of user-generated and corporate media content. 🌟

Content and Users 🎵

Users can upload, view, rate, share, and comment on videos, with content spanning video clips, music videos, live streams, and more.

While most content is uploaded by individuals, media corporations like CBS and the BBC also contribute. Unregistered users can watch videos, while registered users enjoy additional privileges such as uploading unlimited videos and adding comments.

As of February 2017, over 400 hours of content were uploaded to YouTube every minute, with the site ranking as the second-most popular globally. By May 2019, this figure exceeded 500 hours per minute. 📈
