Lynch is getting better

I agree 100%
That was much more focused than when I saw him..which was a trainwreck!
I saw him in his prime several times..not quite the same these days..but still pretty good tho!!Last edited by horns666; 09-17-2007, 01:17 AM."Bill, Smoke a Bowl and Crank Van Halen I, Life is better when I do that"

IMO I was listening to more advanced players when Lynch was still "the shit"..such as Andre Corbin, and Mark MCgee...and all the 80's guys EVERYONE knows about..Greg Howe, Tony MacAlpine, Joey Tafolla, Vinnie Moore, Andy LaRoque, Vai, Mike Romeo, Jason, Becker, Marty Freidman, Reb Beach, Doug Aldrich, Paul Gilbert, Warren D..George could NOT hang with ANY of the guys these days.
George did his job, such as Ed..they had their time and inspired many who took the torch and ran with it..so hail!
George is sedate to compared to Jeff Loomis, Olaf Lenk, Jorn Viggo Loftad, Chris Broderick, Roy Z, Tore Otsby..and those mentioned above.
That's OK..The 1984 Corvette was America's fastest production car at that time, but could it keep up with the new C6 or Vipers..NOPE!
It's the same progression as Waters/King to Hendrix/Page to EVH/YJM and so on..
Does that mean those guys sucked..no, they were awesome.
There is one exception..Uli keeps getting better. He's a quirky dude but what he does is untouchable. He is NOT a metal player/shredder therefore he's much overlooked, no endorments for him, that's not his agenda. He invented the 7 string and 40 frets is a requirement..not to "show off"..but soley for dynamics."Bill, Smoke a Bowl and Crank Van Halen I, Life is better when I do that"

I'll check him out.."Bill, Smoke a Bowl and Crank Van Halen I, Life is better when I do that"
