I came across Doug when I was visiting LA. I had never heard of the band "Lion". We just happened to walk in a club and they were playing. I was like, "Oh my goodness!" Then, I bought Dangerous Attraction and my doors were blown off. It's like, "Where has this guy been?" I also liked his work with Dio. He is such a great rhythm player. Reminds me of Sykes, Zakk Wylde

It's so true what he says, I find after about 15 mins of solid playing I really start getting into my stride

This is usually how I warm up -- start with the slower, bluesier stuff and work your way up to the faster licks. Playing guitar isn't like doing 0 to 60 MPH in 3 seconds in a Lamborghini. You get to the fast stuff slowly but surely and have to put in the serious practice time.

My favourite guitarist. His album with Ronnie James Dio 'Killing The Dragon" is for me the best guitar work he's done. Must have had a lot of freedom and used it. Had the CD on rotation 24/7.

@WyattWillis88 5 жыл бұрын

Couldn't agree more !His tone was so killer on the whole album as well. Especially on better in the dark. I know at one time in his career he used some marshalls that frank levi modded for him. Who also modded the amp for Appetite for Destruction. To me better in the dark sound alot like slashs tone on AFD. Love Mr. Aldrichs attitude a playing! Really seems like a class act

@travelbyrocket 6 жыл бұрын

The beauty of Doug is he does play licks many are familiar with, so this makes boneheads think that is "average" playing. But the pundits are not seeing past this..they don't have the depth to realize the accurate picking and soul that is required to execute this style. Doug makes this connection with his audience in an accessible way, but then his sneaky speed and aggressive staccato crescendos into rock royalty territory.

@vidamedelafey5662 6 жыл бұрын

Exactly! One day our friend here will develop his playing and realize that what's amazing about Doug's playing is not how many scales he can play or his speed (notice that he doesn't use his pinky finger). But his attack, vibrato and aggressive playing is something I'm trying to develop. BTW, there's nothing more boring and average these days than shredders vomiting 100 notes per second.
