Even though I wasn’t around during their heyday, I genuinely love Dokken. When I first heard “In My Dreams”, it knocked me out. Not only was it much heavier than, say, Poison or even Mötley Crüe (I love both bands), but that solo sounded like it was from a whole other planet!

Dokken rocked! They had that dark edgy sound and George was a big part of that, but Jeff and Mick were a powerful rhythm section and Jeff can sing. Don is well...Don. : ) I have read that he's rather hard to work with. Or at least, WAS rather hard to work with - he might be better now.

Not sure I agree with the label of under-rated being applied to Dokken. They have been consistently highly regarded among that era's music fans, and especially among musicians. If you mean undervalued in terms of era dominance (radio air play, album sales, crowd attendance) among their competition, Dokken stood out in one respect: their lyrics weren't dumb. The average rock crowd at the time needed bombast and bluff like Van Halen with their two over the top lead singers singing songs from (and for) the crotch. Dokken were a touch dark and scary at a time when the dominant genre was more stripper/party music.
@user-dq7ms8ir4c5 жыл бұрын
@@siskokidd well they were underrated as far as being respected as a top billing. To ME?, They are far and away a better band than many of the bands who got more respect. After the smoke cleared, so to say , people look back and say Holy Shit, these guys were good, but in my group i got picked on a lot for being a fan. I think i heard there was a " Top hair band" competition years ago and they were voted number one. So many good songs.
@sbw895 жыл бұрын
I don't think they were underrated. They were going to be headlining until Don walked away after the Mosters of Rock tour in 1988. They might have even escaped the grunge era because Dokken's music wasn't the typical glam rock that went out of style literally overnight... I guess we'll never know for sure but that's my opinion. They had so many good songs (hit songs) that it's hard to believe they would have fizzled because of Nirvana and Sound Garden. I literally liked every song from Back for the Attack the very first time I heard it. There's very few bands that can achieve albums that are Back for the Attack solid.

I agree big time. What is even worse is, they were more talented and better musicians than 90 percent of the other stuff out there. I mean, Jeff Pilson, come on man, Jeff had/has more talent in his big toenail than most had their entire life's work, not to mention he is a heck of a good singer as well.

I figured out most of George's stuff with Dokken on my own, started with In My Dreams, Tabs at the time were HORRIBLE and I stopped reading music Long Ago because When Playing what was written out, it Never did the Songs Justice. Bought a Chord Chart, started playing by ear,and, it took awhile,but, things became easier to figure out and I got to the point I was actually correcting User Tabs online and new I Finally had a Grasp on hearing a song, and breaking it down , learning the more difficult stuff first and then putting it all together.

Thanks so much and yeah, it's really important to have a great ear and that's great you've developed your musical ear! I have to admit from all the years of teaching students (since high school), my ear is pretty accurate and can work quickly. I meet people sometimes and notice that their ear is under-developed and it makes me realize how lucky I was to begin playing by ear first and then I learned music theory and how to read music. I feel learning both ways is the best way - by ear and from books. Thanks again and take care!

I was inspired to play by George Lynch's playing on "In My Dreams". I met him at a clinic some years ago in St Louis....maybe the same clinic tour you saw. I paid $5 to sit on the front row with like 30 people in a little place for this clinic. Before the door opened a few of us were in the waiting area and he walked in, looked through the windows on the door, and said, "cool...everything is set up". Someone said, "hey its George". He told everyone hello and thanked us for coming out. The playing and stories were really cool. It was a great experience. He did a meet and greet afterwards and I thought he was a nice guy. I am still kicking myself for not buying that LTD yellow tiger for sale that night because I could have have George sign it.

I remember when they first came out, it totally changed the way I played guitar I’m actually friends with a drummer that George works with in a couple projects, including Ultraphonix.

He went over a bit of his regimen and what his strong work ethic was, and I was simply blown away. George is definitely one of the hardest working musicians out there, and I’m so glad he’s in KXM!

The venue is only open on nights that there are shows, and they open around 7pm for a 10pm show. I got there at like 6:30 and was standing in the rain waiting for the doors to open, I was the only one there. George came outside for a smoke and saw me standing there. He went back in and opened the back door and let me come in and watch their soundcheck, which is really rare (from what I've been told by other fans). He said that he didn't want me dying from pneumonia. lol After the soundcheck, he came over and we chatted for 15 or 20 minutes and I got to also meet Oni Logan. Oni is one of my favorite singers in the world. They were both very cool. I've been to a couple of his clinics too and he remembers that show, he refers to me as the Rainman. lol

Now that I think about it, DiMartini used chords that weren't much used in hair metal (Wanted Man, Round and Round, Lay it Down). But still, Lynch is a beast and deserves to reign with the most influential guitarists of all time. He certainly influenced me. Keep up the incredible work man. It is much appreciated.

Lynch's approach had an effect on me. His reckless abandon, attack attack attack, slippery jumping modes and playing outside the box style helped me cut loose and improv, and build my own style. Great vid. Im 50 and started playing in 1981. Subb'd

Thank you for the time effort and love you put into these videos....wow they're SO good....just watched the EVH one - never really thought of his rhythm playing being so well regarded, but you hit on a point I and many other guitarists just don't appreciate so many thx
@LateNightLessons5 жыл бұрын
Thank you so much and getting comments and messages like this really makes everything worth the time and effort putting these lessons together - thanks again! EVH is a master. His leads, riffs, rhythms, and tone are unlike anyone - unless they copied him, that is. Just an all-around legendary monster musician. : )

My favorite Lynch riff is Lightning Strikes Again and you're right, that stretch is a killer. The stretch is nearly impossible for my stubby fingers to manage.

1. The tone you get is why I love a Strat for metal. 2. After many years of playing bass, I now focus on guitar. I would go back to playing bass for you in a band, just to hear you chop and slice through those rhythm riffs. 3. The song Lightning strikes Again - in terms of the chords, think Smoke On The Water meets Cat Scratch Fever.

George was very fond of open, inverted, augmented and flat 5 chords.

My second favorite,..George Lynch !! Warren "Torch" Demartini and Furious George Lynch !! Lol.. The two people that gave me the inspiration and dedication to pick up and play guitar seriously about 35 years ago....GREAT video !!

I lived right down the street from George in Phoenix in 1991, there was a Bizarre Guitar store in the neighborhood that I would always see him at. I turned him onto a little amp builder Ken Fischer and his Trainwreck Express amp, George ended up buying one, although later sold it... I've seen that amp talked about on YT. I can't stand hair metal, but I love Dokken, and Ratt.

I once read that George was almost Ozzy’s guitarist before Randy.
@TheJayrockerr5 жыл бұрын
Jimw Guitar -That is true. He actually was picked by Ozzy, before Jake E. Lee. However (From what I have read.) Sharron went with Jake E. Lee, because of his look. Also, George Lynch taught at the Rhoad’s family music school (Musonia) in North Hollywood. After Randy Rhoads passed

Jake also talks about George being Ozzy's guitarist choice before Randy. Ozzy and Sharon are just the most worthless people in the industry, as far as not having any people skills... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oJeUlpiX27nZqoE.html

Another great video. I'm a drummer aka "frustrated guitar player". I just play guitar in my room. But the way you approach your presentation on all your videos is absolutely awesome! You've given me so many ideas, pointers, and just a lot of great things to try, THANK YOU! By the way, you are a great guitar player and very knowledgeable. I'd love to jam with you. With all the great guitarists that you have covered. I was wondering if you have done a bit on Rory Gallagher? He was such a powerhouse. If you haven't touched on him yet, I'd love to see a video covering him. Thanks and keep these videos coming. They are great!
