Almost a decade has passed since this video was uploaded and still there is nothing that anywhere this close to it, I still come back to it from time to time headphones on volume cranked.
@@Tylerbag TBH I've probably watched this a hundred times over the years, it's just cool to see someone actually playing the solo as well as you do, and I like your tone and pinch harmonics that would make Zakk Wylde blush.
@ You did him the greatest honor with this masterpiece of a cover! To this day I’ve never heard anybody else play this as flawlessly as you did. Incredible🤘🏽
I’ve watched this video 100+ times. I really can’t think of better hard rock solo ever done...Thank you John Sykes for your brilliance and Tyler for your faithful, if not better, rendition of this masterpiece of music.
superb. that intro, those pick scrapes, them false harmonic squeals. it was a summer night in july, 1987 lake george ny someone just bought the CASSETTE Tape. Put it in the big 80's radio/cassette player and that was it. a black cat moans . . . . A STRAY DOG HOWLS . . . . great stuff ty
Definitely the best John Sykes cover on RUclips! This video should have at least 100,000 views. You have to be great at something to get 500+ thumbs up and no thumbs down. And that's what this is - great!
Holy Christ. That's insane. I mean absolutely spot on it's so ridiculous. You can't just play like that by learning I mean you have to have some of this in you. I wish I did.
+Mike Roy Well said. I keep coming back to video version time & time again because its so brilliant. I hope Tylerbag is still playing guitar. It would be a tragedy if he gave it up. Respect to you Sir.
@@madden7732 Some people are more naturally talented towards something than others. Practicing harder has nothing to do with it. Harder is not even the right word. One can practice longer, more often, or everyday. Not harder.
@@JakeJarmel and yes, you're right. Some people are naturally more talented than others. But some people don't learn nor practice the right (or useful) exercises to develop their technique so they get stuck on the road. We everyone can develop technique, You just gotta find exercises that are useful and work for you
I remember very well when this album came out. I was a teenager in this time and when my friend Eduardo shows this masterpiece we were all left spechless. The tone, the intensity, furious and passion with John Sykes put on each song from this album we had never seen this before. Thanks Mr. Sykes, your music is more than play guitar, it is a comunion with the divine to which you return, after this brief and intense passage on this earth. And, this cover is a best cover i ever seen in youtube, congratulations.
My friend..............that was fucking awesome. You nailed it! Nailed it. My deepest respect to you and humbling watching your obvious talent with the guitar. Hope your still playing.
I was inspired, so I picked up an Epiphone (starburst), still have humbucker pickups. I can't decide on an amp, to many to choose from. I also know there is a thread Round here where u mention ur current pickups, I'll search h through the post. Cheers!
WoW.... Im speachless..... thank you for making me believe in the love of real guitar playing again..... If you are in a band I want to see you guys!!!! Amazing!!!
Wow! My jaw literally just hit the floor! Amazing cover that was spot on note for note..wow..just wow. The tone was there and all the harmonics and then some I noticed you sprinkled towards the end. May be the best performance by anyone since the studio version!
Ok.....OFFICIALLY BLOWN AWAY watching such incredible guitar skill !! As magnificent as Sykes ! I just love to watch such skill ! Oh , if only I had such talent and skill...
Wow. All I can say. Sykes, Vandenberg, Vai. You just made them all proud... You nailed this. I'm not a musician, just a huge Whitesnake fan, and this is just amazing...to see up close what went into making this fantastic song. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us.
@@erike76 Dude he is playing the real song in the backround. How are you suppose to know how well he is playing it when the real guitar playing is all ready playing? Just because he is playing the notes don't mean he is nailing it like Sykes did.
Friend, congratulations... what a healthy envy... I hope in some future life to play as you... what talent, gift from the Gods... that my brother will continue to be blessed... what a fantastic timbre... an enlightened being. Thank you for making me believe this.
As someone who does not play guitar...this is absolutely amazing and almost like magic it is so precise. I have watched it numerous times and still am awed by it every time.
I finally wanted to post on this. I have watched this video often to give myself hope and motivation to keep jamming on guitar. This has been the most inspirational thing I’ve seen. Thank you for keeping me trying to better my playing 🤘
Wow... I've started playing guitar about six months ago and this is a real inspiration... great playing man... I hope I can play like that some day... KEEP ROCKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Those squeals ....G damn they are spot on..there are people that “play” guitar and then are those that excel on the guitar. I have smoothed out my playing because your videos.
Dude please tell me your rig and your presets. The harmonic at 2:04 was awesome. Then the freaking scream at 2:05 .... I came out of my chair!!! That's Rock n Roll!!! Holy Shit. Fantastic playing. What are the settings?
Use a modeling amp and dial In on it like i did..I use the 6505 head option on my Peavey Vypyr Pro 100 amp I also use reverd,delay,gain ..he's using a little bit of chorus or flanger effects as well
Best rendition of Still of the Night I've heard on RUclips so far. This one is tasty too. You're one helluva player. I'm a John Sykes junky so I watch all of these videos. Good work man!
One of my best of all time song! As a singer, I followed you through the song, and I had a blast. You rock man, solo insane. This is rock at its best :) Une de mes meilleures tunes de tous les temps ! J'ai karaoké avec toi et quel plaisir. Tu feel la tune et ton solo est hallucinant ! Rock On :)

Those pinch harmonics at 1:52 and 2:05 are out of this frickin' world!!!
Fantastic cover! Your pinched harmonics are absolutely superb!!

12 years later and I still come back to view this piece of guitar mastery!
@@rocknrollresignation93 That's awesome! Thanks 🤘🏼
My man ascended to the heavens with that solo
10 years have elapsed and I’m just today seeing this. I rarely comment, but Damn, that’s just impressive right there. Nicely done.

8 years later and still the best damn cover of this song I've ever heard!
DUDE! All I can do is just sit here with my jaw open and shake my head. Absolutely incredible my man.
Awesome, thanks! glad you enjoyed it

Spectacular guitar playing!! Sykes was a monster! RIP
WOW!! The only person I have seen in youtube that really gets the feeling and intensity of John Sykes. I'm amazed once again!!
This is the best version of anyone covering this song on YT that I have seen.....great job entirely ;)
By far the best cover of this song I've watched. Excellent job.
The best Crying in the Rain cover out there. You nailed the solo perfectly. Great job, man :)
Guys like this are living proof that Hendrix is NOT the best...period
My God this is sonic perfection. If someone told me John Sykes was behind that Les Paul I'd totally believe it.
Epiphone
Holy shit ..it's 2019 .. Just got this..this is some sick guitar playing and tone !!!!!!
Just saw Aug 2019. sick!
Flawless!!! My all-time favorite Whitesnake song. You are gifted. Thank you for posting.
Revisiting for another fix 4/18/2020. Still absolutely amazing!!
And another fix 1/30/2023
A song I listened to a lot in my bedroom in the late 80's. Absolutely brilliant! And inspiring!
My friend..............that was fucking awesome. You nailed it! Nailed it. My deepest respect to you and humbling watching your obvious talent with the guitar. Hope your still playing.
Holy shite dude!!! That was AMAZUNG!!!! I dont care if it was 10 years ago. That is alot of TALENT!!!
I dont even think John Sykes could play it like that live to be honest...look at any of his live videos of this song. He would be proud of you dude!!!
Mate, that was quite honestly, one of the best covers I've heard on youtube!!! Mad props \m/
I think I've watched this 150 times now, just gets better.🤘😎🤘
I've watched a handful of covers of this song on here.. Nobody nailed that solo better than you.. EXCELLENT JOB
Yes!!! That was killer! Loved it! That harmonic towards the end was just sweet.
Well done at the solo part! And this is indeed one of the greatest guitar solos of all time! Long live JS and his 1987 studio recording legacy.
Umpteen years later, I still come back for the sqeeeeel!
Bravo! Bravo!
I was inspired, so I picked up an Epiphone (starburst), still have humbucker pickups.

If you are in a band I want to see you guys!!!! Amazing!!!
Dude how have I not seen this before… that full step plus half pinch harmonic bend was insaneeeeeee
Wow! My jaw literally just hit the floor! Amazing cover that was spot on note for note..wow..just wow. The tone was there and all the harmonics and then some I noticed you sprinkled towards the end. May be the best performance by anyone since the studio version!
Thank you very much!
My brain just exploded while watching this. Phenomenal playing man!
Bloody hell! Congratulations. That's some excellent playing. John Sykes rules. I absolutely loved watching this 👍
Thanks very much glad you enjoyed 👍🏻
Just sick !!! That was a Masterpiece of one of the hardest solos ever recorded!!!!
Great pinch harmonics, great vibrato….just great all around!
Dude, i can't stop listening to this version. If this guy isn't playing guitar any more that is sad as f. He's got chops for sure!
Ok.....OFFICIALLY BLOWN AWAY watching such incredible guitar skill !! As magnificent as Sykes ! I just love to watch such skill ! Oh , if only I had such talent and skill...
Ok ok, that was sick my friend! Thanks for posting 11 damn years ago….. man that rocks!
Wow. Close my eyes and I think I'm listening to either John Sykes or Doug Aldrich. Perfect performance.
Dude. Crushing cover, well done, kicked my ears ass this morning, thanks
That solo was bad ass! The whole thing was awesome to watch but to be able to play that solo with that feel is truly amazing. Thanks for posting!

You killed it man, you've done John Sykes proud!

@@AnnikaLaurenCassidy56 Thanks very much!
MAN this is one of the best cover's that i've heard.. beautiful...the sound, the audicity.. the feeling... you rock dude!!
Absolute perfection 🤘
That was beautifully done
One of the best covers I have ever seen. As far as I am concerned you played it perfectly.
Mate that is a insane! The solo is bang on! Well done.
Amazing solo maybe you should teach Reb Beach since he cannot play this after more than 10 years in WS. John Sykes would be very proud!
How do we know he is really playing it. To be honest he could just be playing the song in the back round and playing along.
Reb plays this song, not usually, but he plays, different style from sykes, both greats guitar players, Sykes is legendary for this kind of music
Never understood why this solo is not being played by Joel Hoekstra. It fits better with him instead Reb.
@@rayrozniarek8874 You don’t play guitar do you?

So long as there are people like you around, doing what you do so bloody brilliantly the classics will never die.
Freaking outstanding dude!!! You're effing awesome.

Thanks for the comment an yea it's directly into the gearbox software no amp. How I recorded it is in the description \m/
I bet even John Sykes has sat down and watched this and thought ‘fuck, this guys bloody awesome!’.
That would be pretty cool if he has seen it 😄👍🏼
Just came back to listenagain. Still, the very best cover I have ever had the pleasure of hearing.
@@jonathantaylor3456 Very kind, thank you
It’s June 2022 and still NO ONE can touch this!!! Absolutely insane
Beautifully done. Great job. One of my favorite solos.
You’re a bad dude hitting every note precisely ❤🤘🏼💯🎵🎶
Sexy cover dude, nice work. I like the sound of your guitar and the squeals that you did. Sounds straight from the 80's.
just flawless man. john sykes and zakk wylde, two of my favs and I hear both in your playing.
Damn dude....I'm speechless. Best cover I have ever heard.
Say he nailed it
Wow. You killed it on this song! One of my all time favorite Whitesnake songs. Well done!

I cannot get enough of this. Inspiring.
Absolutely outstanding
Good grief, what a joy that must have been!!! Scorching!
