I like how before the solo starts you can hear a hissing sound and some string rattling. Those amps were recorded loud as fuck probably. That's a marvelous tone.
a vaguely remember a george lynch interview where he talked about working the same music store with randy, and how they would kind of rip off each other's licks. the tapping sequence in 'flying high again' was originally lynch's idea, according to him.
GEORGE TAUGHT LESSONS AT RHOADS MOM'S MUSIC SCHOOL..HE GOT KICKED OUT AFTER SHE FOUND HE WAS SELLING PARTS GUITARS TO THE STUDENTS. WAS GOING TO BE OZZYS GUITARIST, AFTER 3 MONTHS OZZY DROPPED HIM.
Yeah, I paid $30 to see Lynch Mob and he threw down his guitar and walked out after berating his stage crew, because his rig wasn't working to his satisfaction. He has made a habit of tantrums about his gear and its *always* someone else's fault. Dude is a Class A dick and owes me $30 for my ticket, $5 for gas and the money I lost taking the night and next day off work.
Can't agree with you there, Rob. Furious George has always been at the forefront of the 80's L.A. metal explosion. While it took Dokken awhile to achieve that platinum album status, Lynch was always mentioned with the greats of the day.
This was/is one of the Best Albums/CDs Ever! If you don't have it yet, BUY IT! There is such a groove and wicked rhythm and melody through out the whole album! You play this at your party in your Miami penthouse, you are going to get laid. 100%
That's gonna be quite the geriatric party in your Miami penthouse, nobody under 50 is listening to that stuff anymore, sadly because it's a great album
The solo tone is glorious. It's glassy, punchy & percusive. The Screaming Demon is a great pickup. I've only used the Lil Demon but even it sounded great. And I think he was using Soldano & Marshall at this time... Whatever the amp(s) & cabs here are, they sound massive. Thanks for posting this!
@@christopherallen5603 I’m pretty sure the main rhythm tone at least for this tune is a dimed Marshall on the left (most likely his 69 plexi borrowed from aspen Pittman) and his snakeskin soldano on the right, they’re probably blended it seems like
I have always said it, and will continue to say it. Lynch is one of the most influential guitarist of the 80's. I put him right up there with Eddie, KK and Glenn, Dave and Adrian, Mick Mars, Jake E Lee, Paul Gilbert and all the 80's metal bands. His guitar work was not all shred and speed. He has this killer blues thing going and his use of the flat fifth (in his words "play between the dots) that made his technique and tone so tasty.
I'd add Warren DiMartini to that list and agree with you. Love his tone, I always wished he had done an album with Ozzy or Dio , think the vocals and that tone wouldve been great together.
@@johnrichjr.415 Not only Warren, but there's several others I could add. I just didn't feel like typing that much! lol I would have included Carlos Cavazo, Vivian Campbell, Marty Friedman and the list keeps going. But you get my drift.
If u download Zedge app,they actually have Yngwie licks n other cool guitar riffs n leads you can use for your ringtone n notification 😀 its pretty badazz let alone the insane backgrounds they offer all free
I think for those below that think George is horrible at improvised solos, you need to understand what he was saying when he thought he was really good at this aspect of guitar playing. George didn't mean "give me a chord progression and let's jam".. he meant "playing his solos live in an improvised way".. To me, there is no one better than Lynch at playing an 'improvised take' of his classic solos spur of the moment at a show.. One thing not to forget.. Paul Gilbert is the improvisation master.. he prepares for these types of jams constantly. He is basically a walking encyclopedia of licks.. He just calls up whatever is needed from his vast library when a jam comes along ;) But, that's just my opinion.. What can't be argued is that George Lynch is a national icon of hard rock / heavy metal guitar.. Thank you George!
This album was lightning. in. a. bottle. I've listened to it 1000x more than Passion and Warfare Having said that, I cant believe ive never noticed that little flatted 5th thing he does right before the C#5 - B5 - F#5 - E5 chords. Classic George 😂
GEORGE TAUGHT LESSONS AT RHOADS MOM'S MUSIC SCHOOL..HE GOT KICKED OUT AFTER SHE FOUND HE WAS SELLING PARTS GUITARS TO THE STUDENTS. WAS GOING TO BE OZZYS GUITARIST, AFTER 3 MONTHS OZZY DROPPED HIM.
Great song. Great album. And a killer guitarist. Lynch was just strate-up nasty when he was writing all this stuff. I'd like to hear Unchain the Night.
Yamaha THR 10X amp can get it on Brown sound 1 and the gain 4is, and master low at about 3-ish. Plate reverb. Go to "Axle Tune" channel, he remade this tone VERY closely!! 🤘
I think this is still a mix Aspen Pittman’s Purple Plexi and the SLO. Can’t remember which was for leads and which was for rhythms. IIRC, the Purple Plexi blew up not much longer after this.
It's funny how George considers himself a great improv guitarist. His improv is usually terrible. What he is amazing at is creating studio solos. He is terrifying in the studio.
I agree. I've seen too many videos of him trying to improv and they aren't good. Mediocre at best but his stuidon solos of the 80s era are some of the best .
I think his KXM stuff has been very creative. They went into the studio with the rule "no prepared stuff" and produced some amazing tracks. As for improve, that's how those amazing studio takes are born. Maybe he takes fewer risks live - I may not have seen enough of his live stuff on UA-cam to draw the same conclusion as cyclops centurion and Mike Mooney.
@@IndelibleAndy check out the video of lynch and paul Gilbert on stage improving some blues. Gilbert shreds him and lynch struggled. It was bad. I've see other video like this with him playing live and just not being on it something. Still one of my favorite guitarists of all time though.
I like how before the solo starts you can hear a hissing sound and some string rattling. Those amps were recorded loud as fuck probably. That's a marvelous tone.
From his KILLER tone to the instantly recognizable riffs, George is in a class by himself.
That tone alone could be in the hall of fame.
Randy Rhoads' brother has said that if you had asked Randy who his favorite player on the strip was, he would have said George Lynch.

@@raxxtango Whoa scandalous! Thanks for the info very cool haha!
Hes my favorite as well alive and shredding
George is so cool he can comfortably wear a heavy leather jacket in the 110° AZ desert
Damn straight 🤘🎸
lol - we here in AZ get down to ~32F all the time during the winter...
Man Lynch Mob was such a bad ass band!

This should be in a museum!
george lynch himself should be in a museum
George, to me, has always and wrongly been super underrated. The man is extremely gifted with talent.
Can't agree with you there, Rob. Furious George has always been at the forefront of the 80's L.A. metal explosion. While it took Dokken awhile to achieve that platinum album status, Lynch was always mentioned with the greats of the day.
His picking on the solo is nasty accurate.
there's so much less gain here than I thought there was!
I listen to a lot of guitar players and appreciate their skill and talent but George is one of the few I ENJOY listening to.
I thought the CD was amazing, but Georges isolated track is masterful... Wow!!
@steve k.Thanks for the information. I had no idea,PLX is a great player. Just listened to other songs on his channel.
Loved his rhythms
That lead is so cleanly picked it’s sharp as a razor....sick!!
3 notes and you recognized George Lynch....what a Legend Guitarist.
Fuck, That Solo just exploded out of my pissy laptop speakers!! Mad George :-) awesome
What a sweet tone.
soldano top with genz benz or marshall cabinet
@@furzi2285 it sounds like a Marshall on the left side and a Solano on the right, I'm thinking maybe he double tracked with both

George is a beast

I know he used his Soldano all over this record and likely one of his Marshalls from back in the day

Lynch is to the guitar as Phil Rudd is to the skins. A constant, unrelenting, perfect drive that never falters.
Good analogy Paul...
@UCcmJZvzXayO_cyPFxZs-Q-g Just like George murders it on guitar?
Phil Rudd was great at drumming. Murder for hire, no so much.
George's playing never lets me down. He is always so right on it. Scary! (or Mr. Scary)
I bought this album the day it came out. I wasn’t really into metal but loved his style, it was unique and he still jams hard!
All hail King George!! We are not worthy.
I have always said it, and will continue to say it. Lynch is one of the most influential guitarist of the 80's.

@@valuedhumanoid6574 I don't know you but feel we'd get along fine 👍
@@johnrichjr.415 lol same here!
Yes tandems Tipton/ KK + Smith / Murray are often left out of the '80s wave which is ridiculous!!!
Top shredders each in their own right ..... 💥💥💥🌟🌟🌟
We need more isolated guitar from this album!
Wow. Even more impressive by itself! 🙌🏻
One of my favorite albums of all time!
Love this album. Raw as hell
If this was my phone ring tone, I'd never answer my phone!
Mine was 'nickelback' breathe', check it out... some crazy Flange.. my phone would ring an people would wonder what the hell was going on :)
Me either
Hell yaa me either awesome
If u download Zedge app,they actually have Yngwie licks n other cool guitar riffs n leads you can use for your ringtone n notification 😀 its pretty badazz let alone the insane backgrounds they offer all free
Living legend right there folks.
I’m so glad my father and uncle got me into rock and metal.
how can this be better than the actual song? damn
Awesome!!!!!
Good lord wow, every single time I hear you play , I start over 100 % as if I have never played before, absolutely amazing thank you for what you do

Thank you George Lynch for all of your work!
He plays it almost as good as I do.
this guy lives by me... Cave Creek, AZ
You ever hear his amp cranking in the wind? That'd be great!
Loud neighbours suck right
Sweet, next to Scottsdale!
To PLX: Thank you for your efforts. VH “Little Guitars” got me here, and now you have a new subscriber.
He doesn't even seem to move!!!!! Steady as it goes…..
Awesome
THAT TONE !! 🎸💯💥👍🏻
MASTER!
George is older now, but cool as the day he started. Way underrated.
Excellent

Thanks again George for giving us the Truth!
I always liked cruisin the rural listening to this album. I like the waa waa on this record too

Hola sh.....man , George was an amazing guitarist his Style is Unique his harmonics bends and the whole technique is extraordinary...
Wicked indeed!!!

Man, that Pod 2.0 sounds killer!
I bet ya wish your playing did.
2 guitar tracks here
3 guitars , 2 for rythm , and one for leads
What an awesome lead. 😁 🎶🎶
So clean. Imagine if a fret was a mile how many miles has Mr.Scary covered?
One of the most versatile guitar players ever...
I think the Wicked Sensation album was GL at his best. Amazing.
This is rock.
Thanks for this. I have been trying to figure out WTF George has been doing for 40 years.
This album was lightning. in. a. bottle.
I've listened to it 1000x more than Passion and Warfare
Having said that, I cant believe ive never noticed that little flatted 5th thing he does right before the C#5 - B5 - F#5 - E5 chords. Classic George 😂
Unchain the Night
It's Not Love
When Heaven Comes Down
...and probably many many more
GEORGE TAUGHT LESSONS AT RHOADS MOM'S MUSIC SCHOOL..HE GOT KICKED OUT AFTER SHE FOUND HE WAS SELLING PARTS GUITARS TO THE STUDENTS. WAS GOING TO BE OZZYS GUITARIST, AFTER 3 MONTHS OZZY DROPPED HIM.
Maybe Sharon thought George was gonna sell bootleg recordings off the back of the bus?
It's funny how old school alternate paicking sounds now!
So Damm Fucking Cool Song to Play on the Guitar ...
What's with the big ass Burp in the middle??? Ha ha. A few beers into to riff. Or in to the fire....Great sense of humor George!!!
good shit
Cool! Where do you get these isolated tracks? Does anybody know?
Please do one for street fighting man also by Lynch Mob. Please
Great song. Great album. And a killer guitarist. Lynch was just strate-up nasty when he was writing all this stuff. I'd like to hear Unchain the Night.
Notice there's not a deal of saturation in the tone, natural sounding, Wonderful
Finally I can learn without tabs!
Incredible. Thanks for sharing! How did you find this?
this is a studio rough mix , not album sound
How do they do this? Do they have access to the original masters?
Nevada ? 😎 California ?
I can picture my self playing this but that's about it
Where the hell did you get this?
Even if I didn't already know, one listen to this lets you know this guy is the guitarist from Dokken. Instantly recognizable.
he is a FU____NG Monster
Can you make some malmsteen isolated guitar tracks
🤘😜🤘
Hrmm.....can I use bias to amp match this?
Yamaha THR 10X amp can get it on Brown sound 1 and the gain 4is, and master low at about 3-ish. Plate reverb. Go to "Axle Tune" channel, he remade this tone VERY closely!! 🤘
Such a bad ass riff. Lynch Mob's best song. At least my favorite.
3:19 wtf ? it's the girl from the grudge omg
Don Dokken disliked this
hihi :-)
LLLLLOOOOOOOOLLLLLLL
Was he using a SLO at this point?
I think this is still a mix Aspen Pittman’s Purple Plexi and the SLO. Can’t remember which was for leads and which was for rhythms. IIRC, the Purple Plexi blew up not much longer after this.
George plays in cursive. Everybody else is printing. 🤘
You found worst pic of George in existence
People always rave about Eddie but George was just as good and maybe even superior in some areas.
It's funny how George considers himself a great improv guitarist. His improv is usually terrible. What he is amazing at is creating studio solos. He is terrifying in the studio.

Nowadays I agree but all his studio stuff is improvd I'm pretty sure. beast from the east has some sick improvised licks
"terrible..." ? Fuck you,@$$hole..!
George is a monster player.
EVH Slash Randy Rhoads Zakk all rolled into one
That hand vibrato is evil.
Get off the drugs bud.
Negan from the Walking Dead comic
George Lynch is God.
@3:20 the string slide sounds like a little japanese girl belching. Amazing was George is capable of!
Actually, little Japanese girls' belches are in a slightly different key. ;-)
@@Gandalf_Lundgren 12 hrs lol can you imagine listening to that for 12 hrs lol.
Solo at 2:35 y'all
That's way more saturated that I thought.
And I suppose Mr. Ringtone can play better than George Lynch You probly have Lady Gaga or the Backstreet Boys As your ringtone
Not the original but whoever actually played this.... that shit was fuckin lit bro, damn well done!! Almost un-catchable
