Best tone talk ever, what a magic chemistry between Jeff and George. Thoroughly enjoyable.
This is definitely one of the Top 5 Tone Talk episodes so far! This one was thoroughly enjoyable, funny, educational and a time capsule revelation! Thank You to Jeff, George, Dave and Mark! Exceptional and very fun show! Cheers to you all!
Best show to date! It’s crazy how they still play off each other so effortlessly after all these years… it’s like that old Dokken VHS revisited lol 🤘🏻
Awesome VHS tape
No Kidding
Yep...when they were in the hotel room cutting up.
Minus the drugs and alcohol
These guys are just naturally hilarious, one of the funniest episodes ever.
George & Jeff are a Magical Music Duo. Personally, you can tell they are like each other's best friend .
all time A leaguers as a songwriting tandem, underappreciated by rock fans.
@@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle I agree 1,000 percent. I remember George saying in an interview that Jeff is his writing soulmate. There is a certain magic there that is rare
@Tone-Talk
Jeff Pilson has got to be one of THEE most amazing multi-talented and multi-faceted musicians that I've ever had the pleasure to work with! Something a lot of people don't know is that Jeff created unequaled Dio history! When he was in Dio on the 2 albums with Tracy-G...as many Dio fans know that on most Dio albums there's mention that "All lyrics and melodies by Ronnie James Dio".....Jeff wrote a song called "Stay Out of My Mind"....and Ronnie loved it so much that Ronnie put it on his album....and it was basically a "Cover Song" of Jeff's song!! That's HUGE! Just thought I'd add that bit of info here! I learned so much from Ronnie....and I gotta say....that the times where Jeff and I were in a band together and writing for that band and all the way up to the DD original stuff.....I learned so much from him ( Jeff ) especially in the song writing department that it completely changed much of how I write songs to this very day! Glad to have seen this!! And during the "Hear n Aid" project for the song "We're Stars" George Lynch scared me into having to go back to the "drawing board" for my playing. I was in the room at one point when George was warming up....I heard him play something that sounded like he was using a wah-wah pedal....so I looked down fully expecting to see that pedal....and there was none! It was his way....his magic and pure one of the world's best that he could basically do the impossible!! It scared me....and I'll never forget it!! So I had to go back to the drawing board and made myself learn how to consciously create "vowel sounds" on command! Before they happened by accident and we just kept them in the recordings from Rough Cutt demos, Giuffria, the band with Rudy Sarzo and Tommy Aldridge demos just before joining Dio ...and the Dream Evil album. Thanks Jeff and George for making me a better writer ( Jeff ) and a better player ( George )!!! Just thought people should know!!
With all due respect, listening to old rock, stars sit around with their band mates of 40 years is pretty awesome.
This was a great interview. George & Jeff should create their own UA-cam channel, the fans would love it when they can do live feeds together.
JEFF IS FLYING HIGH! JESUS!! WHEN DO WE GROW UP AND BECOME A TAD RESPONSIBLE?
What a great time. These guys are so much fun. They were even like this with each other on the Unchain the Night VHS. Yeah, I had that when it was out fresh.
It was great...
Me too! the guitar whammy neck! 🎸..
I think that I still have mine!
Seriously, best episode ever. These two are hilarious 😂
I giggled more through this interview than I have in a long time.
Lifelong friends, right there. Wonderful to watch, even better to listen to them play.
Michael Wagener (producer Under Lock & Key 1985 ):
"The setup for George's guitar tone on "Under Lock And Key" was as follows:
We had two Marshall heads and two Laney heads, not sure which models, but one of them was a Plexi. We had cabs in three different rooms: two cabs were placed in the big room at Amigo, one connected to a Marshall, the other connected to the Laney. The Marshall was responsible for the high end part of the sound and the Laney was set to take care of the low end. There were 14 (fourteen) mics set up in that room in various psoitions around the cabinet and some further away to get some room tone. The second Laney was sent into a very dead room and had a Boss chorus pedal in front of it, set to very slight chorus. The second Marshall was sent into a small, tiled bathroom, to add a different room tone. Those 16 mics came in on the MCI 500 console mic pres. They were bussed to one bus and that bus had a UREI 530 EQ on it (best guitar EQ ever). George mentioned that he always gets a great tone with his Fostex 4track recorder when it's in total overdrive, so I asked him to bring it in. So after the 530 everything was sent to the Fostex 4track, which lived under a packing blanket under the console, so nobody would see it. The Fostex was on stunn, completely overdriven and was sent on to the 3M 32 track dig machine from there.
Jeff, George, and Mick must have been a riot of laughs on tour. Great show and good laughs. Good tone and good laughs go well together.
Fantastic episode guy! Seriously, really good. This is perhaps the most comfortable that I've ever seen George on camera.
Brilliant, George and Jeff are a monster comedy duo
A league songwrting tandem as well.
Pilson and Lynch ; they would make a great comedy team ! Saturday Night Live needs help. They could bring that show back to life.😄🤗🤣
Such a great interview with George and Jeff, this is why I look forward to Tone-Talk episodes.!
Sitting here recovering from the China virus and watching these videos. I’m not sure if the lack of breathing is from the laughter or virus! Lol! This one and the Jake E Lee show was freaking awesome!!! Thank you so much for helping me make it through. Keep e’m coming!!!
How these two don't have their own show is beyond me. Hilarious duo. They made it feel like Dave and Marc were the guests. Best episode by a country mile.
Love that Randy Hansen got a mention here, he is just stunningly amazing!
Awesome to see these guys together, they are hilarious. Throw Mick Brown in the room & I have no idea how they got anything done.
Cocaine.
This was the best episode I've seen and this is one of the best podcasts going. I love this stuff.
Such an amazing episode, I haven’t laughed like this in a long time 🤣Love these guys!
Lynch and Pilson are awesome! Saw them live a few times with Dokken back in the 80's! Glad they're still making music!
Great episode! Please have both on again. Love Jeff’s collection!
This episode was GOLD!!! Laughed my ass off!!! This had it all, learned some tone and gear stuff and most importantly, we may be growing older, but that doesn't mean we have to grow up!!!
Nice interview, I really enjoyed the fun play on words. George and Jeff seemed really happy and that was very cool.... I once passed George on the floor at a NAMM show inte 90s and his NAMM badge name read "Dirk Diggler" lol
Too funny guys, loved the show!!
Awesome show guys, definite Top 5 show for Tone Talk. There were a number of times I found myself having to go back and re-listen to parts to make sure I heard what I thought I heard ... You could tell even Dave who has seen and heard a lot over the years was caught off guard a few times. It would be great to have Jeff & George back on again in 6 months,. Great job Marc & Dave. Cheers : )
absolutley awesome, reminds me of the VHS vid "Unchain The Night" part where they are in the hotel room laying down tracks for the next album
just like that VHS haha crackup
Awesome love this video Lynch is the man!
This was GREAT! Thanks a lot!
Tremendous episode. Just Tremendous. GL is truly a living legend.
i've watched a bunch of these tone talks this was the best one
These two are a hoot!
What an awesome way to spend a couple of hours.
Thanks very much to you all.
funniest tone-talk , thanks for the info and the great jokes and
laughs !
Lynch's greatest guitar tone was "Wicked Sensation" with his Soldano SLO-100.
Awesome show!!! 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
I'm so glad to have stumbled on this episode! My 2 favs are the guests on the show! Thank you Marc and Dave for a great episode!
I saw Foreiner last date if the tour in Estero Florida and, frankly, they blew me away. It was bad ass
Really enjoyed this !!! Great interview… :)
Great one!
The best one so far😃
This was awesome!
wow this was the best ever!!!
Guys - one of the best shows ever!! They were so gracious with their time! Thank you !
Comedy gold from two absolute legends! 😂🤘
1:02:55 YJM also had a brief endorsement deal with Aria Pro II, back in the Alcattrazz days
Jeff is such a cool dude. Just seen him on stage with Foreigner. What a showman! He's got so much energy. It's infectious.
Great laugh watching this, thank you🙏🏻
great one
Great show, had me laughing out loud a few times. 😄
Jeff and George what an amazing relationship these two have let best bros
Seen Jeff with Foreigner in Nov, George still kicks asss on stage...rock on!
That was Awesome!
Very nice episode
One of the best episodes yet. Thanks so much guys !!
Great Show....👍👍👍
Great stuff guys
I have to agree with Dave on my favorite Lynch tone being on Under lock and Key. Incredible tone.
Great Show!
I use a stereo Two Notes Torpedo Cab M plus boxes with those George CABS. I use the Two Notes Torpedo Captor 8 to tap the signal direct to stereo fx. They work great for me. I mic the dry cab, but use the stereo Two Notes Torpedo Cab M plus IR boxes to mixer. They are safe to use with your tube head as long as you don't go over 100 watts and check your connections everytime during set up.
Great show
Very cool!
2 greatis Legends Dokken one of the greatis Band ever Jeff amazing on bass and hi is a Legend and George amazing on Guitar and hi is one of my Guitar Hero of all time
Best episode ever :)
Wow! bass player on tone talk! much thanks :)
Great episode, sounds like George remembers the Lee Jackson stuff very different to Lee.
Digging the Rush shirt!
such a killer chat
Killer episode! Jeff is such a cool dude. Never really known of him but obviously have heard his music. Thanks guys! Oh, and yeah I think a purple Lynch Friedman would be a nice gesture and testament for a rock legend!
Second time watching this Episode and man is this one funny !!
And Pilson kicked ass
Great Show.... nice to hang with the greats remotely :)
Jeff and George are F€@¥N Hillarious together , loved Watching this. George is my favorite Guitar player of all time. Thank You Dave and Marc for having them on...☮💚🇨🇦🙏
Great Show Guys! Keep em Coming Marc & Dave 🔈🔉🔊🎸🎶🎶☮️
In Estero Fl (last show of 2021l) I believe) they blew my mind
Great Episode!! Just a funny idea, if george ever get a Friedman signature Plexi it could be called " George Lynch's Naked Sensation"
Just keep playing with the End Machine… it’s coolest of all the band combinations you’ve played in
I see that MosValve power amp behind Marc. I still have mine. That amp has been great.
hilarious episode
Pilson's voice and speech pattern sounds JUST LIKE Martin Short
I actually saw the whole episode which I rarely do because how long they are. They're both very funny guys.I love George's sense of humor like "the carpets aren't matching the drapes" Very hilarious!
Amazing show guys, Jeff & George are so much fun, I'd love to find bandmates like that someday. Such a shame Eddie isn't still around for shows like this, it's so natural and un-staged, I'm sure he would have eventually warmed up to the idea. I'd love to see you get Scott Henderson on, his tone is amazing and he's really funny too!
Great show guys, many thanks 👍
Great episode gents! Really enjoyed it.
The Digitech Hardwire and Polara are Lexicon reverb in a pedal.
Great vid. Rough start…. George is such a ham. 😂
Rough start? Lol thanks
@@tone-talk sorry that sounded wrong, just George cracks me up. 🤘🤘
Great interview. How about a new KXM album or Lynch Mob.... Er I mean Freedom Mob one? 😁
Saw Dokken at Rice Stadium in Houston lineup was:
Kingdom Come
Metallica
Dokken
Scorpions
Van Hagar
Right up there with the best of Tone-Talk!
It's cool to see Jeff & George just joke & kid & work together & really just get along, that's good stuff & wish more band members were just good friends,thru it all✌️.
This is really cool! Im convinced tone chasing is a serious addiction. Marketing is incredible they have signature gear they dont use. Ive been playing for years actually took a few lessons from George at a record store best records. I enjoy this but it will end up costing me.. ill start buying and changing things and spend countless hours that lead to frustration. Everytime i think ive figured it out i wake. Up the next day and it doesn't sound right. I wish i new the definition of vintage would change from old gear nobody wants to old gear thats expensive. They mentioned echoplex ive owned a few and used to buy blank. 8 track tapes and splice them before they had replacement cartridges. I hated them yet was looking at one the other day. Im curious if modeling amps will one day will devalue vintage gear
I love pilson and george !!!!
That was fucking awesome.
Definitely Get Jeff and George episode! Next time have them Jam online!! And have More questions asked by us next time. Hopefully you can get Jeff and George to go on again.
So glad I got see both Jeff and George together Live, twice. Thank you for this wonderfully entertaining interview.
