I love Dokken but fans and taste don’t change. The marketing changes and the fans in general take what’s marketed to them. Why do you think we are still stuck with Rap? It should have gone away years ago but they just keep marketing it

George is one of the best players ever. Unique.

George Lynch is one of my childhood guitar hero’s & he’s definitely one of the most underrated guitar players. Dokken was obviously incredible but Lynchmob the “Wicked Sensation” album was absolutely AMAZING! George has a unique guitar feel, sound & how he “attacks” the fretboard with his signature “melodic/harmonic minor” kinda riffs still give me chills & still inspire me to play.

I was in junior high school. Appetite for Destruction just came out and I had it on cassette. I was on the football team and we used to play music before games. I popped in appetite and people lost their minds. Kid on my team asked me to trade him my appetite cassette for a Dokken “Back for the Attack” cassette. I never heard Dokken. He played Mr Scary and I handed over appetite without hesitation. George blew my mind since.

At the end of the day, it comes down to songs. And Dokken had that in spades. They were so much better than most. What an incredible band.

We immediately went home and copped the solo to "Into the Fire" and "Alone Again" and others. Lynch was nasty and had a unique tone, phrasing, and touch that made him stand out and shine.

I became a George & Dokken fan in late '87 which was basically the end of Dokken. To this day I love his playing. I have all the Dokken cd's with George on them, all of the Lynch Mob stuff and all of George's solo work. Seen him live multiple times and met him a few times and he graciously talked to me and signed my stuff. He's just an amazing player and from that 80's L.A. scene guys like George & Warren DeMartini really stand out. That first Lynch Mob record 'Wicked Sensation' is just an amazing record..I think it's the best Mob work and Oni Logan's voice is freaking amazing. Eddie VH is always for me the rock guitar king but I rank George right up there. Two different styles & two amazing players that inspired countless others.

Mr. Scary is still awesome.

Both lynch albums, the don dokken album and the dysfunctional album charted very well. That's because the genre never died even though the record companies turned their backs on hard rock and metal. Just goes to show you how dumb the record companies really are.

I saw them in Monsters of Rock in Seattle (long time ago) and they rocked! I'll say this, Dokken is my goto songs I still listen to today, evean more than than VH. George's solos and chord progresssions just blows me away in creativity and technical pressence very few band can match. His tone is my fav of all the 80's metal bands, so much attack and bite, yet his chords were smooth. He just knows how to craft his sound within a song perfectly, very rare that it's off. A big credit to Dokken too, a master songwriter himself. It's the reason their best music was written while they were in the same band. Not going to lie, their solo careers were nothing to brag about...

Right on New Mexico awesome home 🏡 😂🎸🍺🎛👋

George’s interviews are honest and fun. Don needed a guitarist with a strong musical personality like George. The Dokken lineup was a great example of a band who were better together than anywhere else. Great players and chemistry along with Don’s songwriting. And the albums / songs prove it. They just needed management that could help make them a top headlining act. The 80’s it seems were very competitive. You still had the great 70’s bands, and grunge would soon explode. Listen to Tooth And Nail, Under Lock And Key and Back For The Attack. Great stuff.

Dokken was a great band and they really stood out above the rest of the bands at that time. I was lucky enough to hang out with the band and they were s great bunch of guys and extremely talented players.

I remember thinking that the live show was nowhere near their studio album sound. But George Lynch never let you down with his playing. Maybe they were fighting during this concert, but it just did not sound as if they were a band getting along. They made Back For The Attack later, and broke up. I never stayed to hear Loverboy. My girl wanted to , but I just wanted to see Dokken. A few kids left as well. Ticket prices were affordable back then.

Dokken was my favorite band back in those days. I wasn’t able to see them live until they regrouped for the Dysfunctional album, which I feel is a totally underrated album. I saw them twice in small clubs on that tour in 95. They were absolutely killer!!

I saw them every tour back in the 80’s when they came to St Louis, it was always amazing, not sure how many times but it was a lot lol

So many great songs

The secret ingredient to the first Lynch Mob records was Max Norman. Dude is a super-mixer and producer with an ingrained natural perfect "ear". Anything he touched in those days (his Megadeth stuff was awesome, for example) sounded great and sold in bunches.

That period of time from Back for the Attack to Wicked Sensation was so peak in terms of George's guitar playing, compared to how most of his peers were doing around that time.

George, you're a rockstar, a guitar god, a legend. I love Dokken and Dokken would not be as big as it is without your talent. Thank you for your amazing music. From Brazil. You still rock in 2023

George Lynch is one of my top 10 all time Guitarists , Mr Scary as he was known back then , I will never forget the solo he did in the Dream Warriors video for Nightmare on Elm Street 3 , he gets taken off by Freddie after a kick ass solo , also songs like Alone Again , The Hunter, Just Got Lucky and Kiss of Death amazing songs i could go on with Breaking the Chains , Heaven sent and Its not love , theres so many great Dokken songs this band was just so underrated they were as good as Guns n Roses or Cinderella or The Motley Crue and a lot better than Bon Jovi or Poison , anyway thank you for getting George on the show he is a gifted man and a unique guitar player no one can emulate his sound.

I remember having to order the breaking the chains EP back in early 80’s up in Canada. Hearing Paris is burning live was an eye opener but it was nothing to what came after . George and Eddie are at the same level but very different styles . George is more metal, Eddie is more Rock

I met Lynch after a Blandini concert he played in, NC, 2019. A buddy bought me a table ticket so I could sit and meet/greet was included. I was recovering from a monster cancer removal surgery….We waited close to an hour standing by the shuttle bus while the band sat and drank beer. We were finally allowed in to meet GL, he was drunk….. He had asked my name but spoke so low I couldn’t understand him. Then he spoke up, making a smart ass comment because I didn’t answer him. The experience wasn’t worth any extra money to get the meet and greet. After a life of liking Lynch’s guitar work since I was an 80’s teen, that incident has pretty much turned my interest off of Lynch’s music.
