After a self-imposed exile from the music industry and the public eye, heralded guitarist Jake E. Lee (Ozzy Osbourne, Badlands) returned with a fresh new band, Red Dragon Cartel in 2014. Now, Jake and RDC are back with their new album “Patina”, which is set for release November 9th via Frontiers Music Srl.
Jake’s 2014 comeback was greeted with much enthusiasm from the fans and media alike and the virtuoso guitarist is back once again to grace the rock world with his unbridled skill! With an extremely talented band featuring Anthony Esposito on bass (ex-Lynch Mob), Phil Varone (ex-Saigon Kick, Skid Row) on drums and returning vocalist Darren Smith (Harem Scarem) backing him up, Jake has delivered the album fans have been eager to hear since Badlands dissolved years ago.
In addition to being the new bassist for Red Dragon Cartel, Anthony Esposito co-produced the album alongside Jake E. Lee. “I think we had a great production partnership. He never discouraged me from trying things that were a bit outside the box, in fact he encouraged it. His attention to detail in the recording of everything was exceptional. Much more than I alone would have toiled over. He has an incredible work ethic that kept me from lapsing into complacency. If we disagreed on how something should be, we'd find a perfect marriage of the two sides, or completely reimagine it. We didn't settle on anything unless we both agreed it was perfect. If I do another album, I'd love it to be with him again,” says Lee.
Another new member to Red Dragon Cartel is drummer Phil Varone, whose style Lee really appreciated. “Phil is a very solid and groove oriented player, who is not afraid to turn things upside down to give the song a more unique flavor," explains Lee.
“Patina” marks a change of style from the debut Red Dragon Cartel album, going more bluesy hard rock as opposed to the debuts heavier leanings. Remarks Lee, “The first album was more of a piecemeal production with some of the song ideas being 10 years old, and never having more than one player in the room at any time. I wanted to do this one from scratch with all the songs originating and worked on with everyone in the room, on their instruments. It felt much more organic, like the way I used to do it for the first 20 years of my career, more honest to my roots.”
When asked about his musical inspirations for the record, Jake muses, “[m]y inspirations for ‘Patina’ are from the artists I loved during my youth. Robin Trower, Santana, Black Sabbath, Captain Beyond, Thin Lizzy, Grand Funk Railroad, David Bowie ... I could go on and on, but let me also say that there are also hints of Sly & the Family Stone, Dick Dale, psychedelia and even some George Benson. Don't let any of that scare you, it all makes sense!”
“Patina” is a definitive statement of Jake’s unbelievable skills with a monster production from Esposito and a perfect mix, courtesy of Max Norman, whose relationship with Jake dates back to his days with Ozzy Osbourne.
Get ready, “Patina” is coming and with it, Jake E. Lee is BACK!

He wrote THE best riff in the 80’s - bark at the Moon!
All this talk about how he looks, people need to understand you don't play with your looks you play with talent and heart, hard driving stripped down rock n roll the way it should be, and as far as the smoking goes I don't think it bothers us old schoolers to much some of you just haven't spent enough time in a real bar .
It's so much fun to watch him play thoses short little licks that emphasize the song classic Jake.
Wow the solo sounded like Pat Travers and Robin trower had a baby lol
Now I want a new guitar.... And beer
He definitely has the groove of Hendrix...
Love Jake’s style, his tone and his approach to songwriting. We missed you dude.
Jake is a monster on guitar!
Hey kids Look, its Real rock and roll.
Jake E Lee rocks
Jake is still the “guitar ninja”!!! Great song!!!!
Jake E Lee, I swear I could listen to him play the guitar all day long. Been following him since his days with Ozzy. Will always be my favorite guitarist in the world and the reason I picked up my first guitar :) Red Dragon Cartel ROCKS!!
Your uncle's bar on the side of the road in a dying rust belt town. Jake's down with the people. Right on, brother.
Whenever i want to be reminded what real talents came out of the 70s-80s rock scene, i watch this video. There was an upper tier of players even above some real quality pros. Jake is surely breathing that rarified air. Lot of hard work im sure. Great band all around.
KILLER!!! And don't let it get Lost that BASS PLAYING IS FLAT SICK!!! Jakes so Amazing, that "OZZYS" Vocals could get LOST Behind HIM!!! UNREAL TALENT EVERYWHERE!!!
Damn Jake’s guitar work is on fire here! 🔥
Jake's tone is really time machine. I almost forgot that classic rock is unbeatable genre
THERE ARE OVER 700 CHORDS ON THE GUITAR,then there are the ones JAKE USES AND MADE UP,GENIUS
Cracked me up when the guy walks up with the pedal and Jake hits it on right before the solo. Good stuff! Otherwise, it’s a bar with people visiting, listening to music, smoking a bunch and drinking.
Love this song. Never gets old. The wife walked in while it was on to ask me something, stood there staring at the tv till it ended, then said ' wow, I like that!"
