JON E. LOVE - UNDERATED?

[Birdzeyeee]

Thought this guy smoked with Love / Hate on the first few LP's. Wrote some cool riffs and solos. Anybody have input / current info on this AWOL talent?

Would be an interesting fill in dude / 2nd guitarist for Mick Mars if Crue ever has an opening.

Think he played a Floyed Fender Strat that was modded. Anybody remember his setup?

Re: JON E. LOVE - UNDERATED?

all i remember was him playing one of those alvarez scoop strat-styles in the why do you think they call it dope video. that thing was weird; i wonder how many of them broke?

always liked his playing; that first LH album is hotter than a urinary tract infection.

Re: JON E. LOVE - UNDERATED?

I never heard the rest of them, but Blackout was a wicked LP....

Love "Happy Hour" off the 2nd LP, Wasted in America.

Love / Hate parted co. with Jon at some point and their sales continued to decline (hard rock / metal style of music considered out of vogue).

Hey, I'll proudly wear the "stump the board" designation as a badge of honor. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img]

I only have Blackout In the Red Room and it kicks ass! I don't think Jon's underrated so much as that he came out at a time when the whole genre was starting to wind down. Compared to the premier shredders he was just okay, but compared to the grunge and nu-metal guys he's a god. The reality is he played some cool shit on that album and made a mark, and hey, isn't that enough? His name will pop up in studies of the metal era many years from now.

Re: JON E. LOVE - UNDERATED?

Yeah, but compared to C.C. DeVille and Mick Mars, Jon is George Lynch! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

You can download cool L/H tunes absolutely FREE! Even liked most of their tunes after the 2nd LP.

Re: JON E. LOVE - UNDERATED?

What a scary, twisted, ass-kickin' band! "Jon" never sticks out in particular as an guitar master, but the tunes were the $hit. Thanks for reminding me about those nut cases--cranking Blackout this very second. [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

Re: JON E. LOVE - UNDERATED?

They recruited a Shrapnel guy for thier 2nd or 3rd cd. It was okay, but he didn fit the band.Damn, i can't remember the name of the guy. I just remember him on the cover of his shrapnel in a plaid hoodie and a washburn.Tommy? Was that you,lol.

So does Nikki Sixx, Vik Foxx, and other assorted glam / metal artists. [img]/images/graemlins/poke.gif[/img] Those are parody stage names. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] They're supposed to sound like stripper names! The big hair, sissy clothes, and makeup kinda enhanced the effect - hot slutty chicks dug it!
