Sykes’ solos aren’t good because they’re “challenging,” they’re good because they’re good. And there are many “challenging” solos in the world of shred guitar that are utterly forgettable. Then you have a solo like Cinderella’s “Nobody’s Fool” that is slow and rather simple, yet a great solo.

Then the music industry, business side, changed and not for tbe better for musicians. Its difficult to keep getting back up after being beaten down...especially as you age .. more to life than that .

IMO Whitesnake could have been much bigger than they were but because of Vanity by Coverdale...I always tell People Guns and Roses could have been so much MORE if it wasn't for Axl's attitude!!

Most criminally underrated guitarist that ever lived. The man was phenomenal and had a tone and style is unparalleled. Fuck, David Coverdale had to hire Vivian Campbell and Adrian Vandenberg to try to do together what John Sykes could do by himself. That speaks volumes
@panoskyrim49432 жыл бұрын
There were always 2 guitar players what are you talking about? I agree that Sykes is one of the best to have played in Whitesnake but he wanted to kick David out of his own band when he was ill and actually be the new leader. So basically that's why Coverdale fired him when he heard it . I mean who wouldn't? Yes I understand, they should do what's best for the band but when you know that one of the members actually wanted you off when you were ill and couldn't sing how do you continue touring and writing songs together?

Pierre Morelle Get it right, man...Coverdale brought a tape to Sykes that featured a riff by Blackmore, which was far from the finished version that ended up on the album. Sykes developed that riff and in Coverdale's own words: "twisted it and took it further, as only John could!". No doubt the song would have turned out very different if not for Sykes' involvement, so don't kid yourself by trying to downplay his input or only crediting it to Coverdale & Blackmore...as for the older songs from past Whitesnake, sure, Sykes has no claim on those and everyone knows it. I think Bill is simply referring to the original music written specifically for the 1987 album

@@TheGreatAlan75 In 2009, in an interview with Metal Hammer, Coverdale commented on the origins of the song: "When my mother died I was going through the stuff at her house and found some early demo cassettes. One of them was a song that Ritchie Blackmore and I had been working on which was the basic premise of what would become "Still of the Night". It was totally unrecognizable, so Ritchie doesn't have anything to worry about... neither do I! Ha ha ha! I took it as far as I could then I gave it to Sykesy when we were in the south of France, and he put the big guitar hero stuff on there. John hated blues so I had to work within those parameters. I manipulated to be electric blues, but how he performed it was fabulous for his time and relatively unique because of the songs. There were a lot of people doing that widdly stuff but they didn't have the quality of those songs." Burn.

What you forget is that this was 26 years ago, so your statement is a bit silly, ain't it...

One of the top guitarist, singer, frontmen, in rock music in my opinion. May have been a bit petulant at times but no one can refute the sheer musical talent. Hope he comes back soon.

I loved Whitesnake as a kid. I kept listening to them as I got older and metal/rock fell out of "fashion". These years later I realized I really loved John Sykes' work, not Whitesnake per se (without him).
