George will never get the credit he deserves very few players have a unmistakable style,this is to be 70 year old dude its amazing his playing is as good as ever
George lynch has always been a cool dedicated artist, one of my favorites but this new singer is way cool!! His stage persona and energy is given george a second wind. I dont believe this song could be sung any better than what i just heard. Fuc%#! Awesome!
I'm a Lynch fan since I was 14 in 1983 but this solo doesn't sound anything like the album version. I once heard someone say that he pretty much wings his studio solos with a tiny bit of structure which makes sense because I can honestly say over the years even seeing him live in a small club in the 90s, he never replicates a solo. I mean even EVH was the same but he kept to the structure of his solos live.
He mixes it up. Sometimes he will play solos very close to the album version but most of the time, they are quite different. This type of improv is almost gone from music. I personally think it's pretty cool. Sometimes it comes out great like this and other times it's a mess, but it's rock and roll!
I agree a little bit. I go to a live show because I liked the band and their recorded songs. So I'm looking for solos, vocals, drum and bass parts that stick to the album song I lked. I don't mind a little improv but for instance if there's a SUPER COOL riff or lead part I want to see and hear they can replicate it live. Thats just me.@@noaveragejoe
Gabriel sings it better than Don Dokken! George you found someone that clicks just perfectly for the band and i think he will take you where you want to go and some, watching & listening to your set at the whisky a go go the sound & mix was just perfect Brilliant!! Awesome man!
Love Dokken and Lynch but this guy doesn't seem to fit for singing Dokken.No where close to Don. He's like singing flat.Grungy not metal. Just my take. Maybe he'd be ok in another band and style? Not doing justice for Dokken. George of coarse is always on fire!!
I don't know how that band stayed locked in during that solo. George is amazing but when he's off and overly experimental with his choice of notes and timing, it can be a total mess. This, was a total mess. They kept him in there though..
Oni was always notorious for not delivering live, but this kid can not come close to hitting the notes in their signature song. Sounds terrible. This is not a good lineup...
Can hear the Van halen influence in his playing, not what it used to be but not bad, too many effects, not even close to don dokken on vocals but good for what it is.
