Different era's, different schools.....both valid. Respect.
George buries this guy. Buries!
Don't let George's humble way let you think that his guitar playing is worthy of a humble stature.. He is one of the greatest guitar players of all time, and my personal favorite.
Two different fabulous players
George is killer
Both are great!
George live cranked is wild because he throws in all those quirks and it's great showmanship
George sucks
Agree totally he's so humble but an absolute beast
George Lynch is an eighties 5.0 Ford Mustang, and Chris is a finally engineered sports car. Completely two different styles, but both totally badass. One classroom trained and one just a rock star. I’ll take Lynch any day.
Perfect way of putting it
I’ll take Chris
laughs in DAVE MUSTAINE
They're both insanely good. After watching George sit down with Dave Navarro, he showed he can do technical quite well himself, but keeps to his own style. If you've heard a bit of Megadeth then you know Chris can also do rockstar pretty well himself. Give both of these amazing devils their due.
Chris is both theorical and technical. You can learn articulation and accuracy from him. George is all about experience. You can learn dynamics from him. I'll stick to George.
I love George's comment, you expect me to play after that, holy s***!
Christopher T So humble. Coming from a self taught man that still plays today! Awesome!
The look on Georges face watching Chris shred classic 17 years old all over again
AmiEvil, That was my favorite part of the entire video. George was very humble
Chris's face watching George is also funny, he's trying to comprehend what he's doing in a technical way but because George is fluidly doing all this seemingly random shit it's hard to interpret that way. At 6:45 you can really see him scanning what the heck is happening here. It's cool to see they both can learn from eachother.
George Lynch was being humble, he doesn't have his head up his ass like Malmsteen...
I just turned 55 and started playing at 6. I'm mediocre and really don't care. I will play the electric guitar till I die . Guys like George and Chris keep me going. Even if I learn only one new riff, lick or song a year.
Mediocre my ass,with 40 year of expérience in the cockpit you still better then half of us
@@elpresidente5767 Not true. You can spend 40 years trying to sound like slash or you can spend 40 years learning music theory and all techniques there are and refine your skills and develop your own voice/style. The latter is way harder because it requires effort and drive. The first option is what most choose. They buy a guitar and want to sound like their heroes and play a few riffs at weddings and what not. That's fine but someone like that won't be better after 40 years than someone like Jeff Loomis after 3.
George is just awesome, you can hear his age in his playing, he's a veteran.
pure class!!
@@abmendez7102 best thing about him is he is not a dickhead. You hear me Mustaine?
maria I mustaine has been gracious for years now. What are you talking about?
@@jlnxn5374 most Definitely
What's also evident here is that George has LIVED. He ain't just talkin'' guitar playing, he's a spiritual fuckin' dude with a shredding soul...
jenniferlacex exactly and he shreds with feeling first, speed second priority. Very few interviews with him have ever even brought this up.
Lynch may not have the music theory to match, but his riffs were always so tasty.
Yeah Lightning Strikes Again
@@metalrebel7506 LIGHTNIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIÑNN
@@RUTGERMORTENSEN fuck yeah I love that song, im glad my band covers it
@@metalrebel7506 For me, The Hunter stands as the the best solo and song on Lock and Key. I'm still moved every time I listen to it.
@@deadsetanime7102 That's a good one too, Till the Living End is sick aswell so many good ones, Unchaim the Night
George Lynch is a fuckin Icon to Metal!!! \m/ \m/
absolutely true, such an icon.
Look guys Chris is a complete destroyer and thats what he wanted to be. He knows every note every mode and where to go. George on the other hand is a type of guitarist who relies on his sound and tonality of how he executes the notes. You can learn amazing things from both. There is no such thing as better or worst. And no such thing as "soul" Every guitarist has his own soul. Chris soul happens to be of a hellish nature, that doesnt make him a robot.
+Konstantinos Vogiannou Nice comment, you are right, im learning to play guitar and i want to learn from both worlds.
totally agree
+Konstantinos Vogiannou Lynch is the master of the "Less is More" theory. Yes he could shove 5 additional notes in that space but chooses not to. That's what sets him apart from most other musicians.
slikkarl Dont get me wrong man, i love Lynch. As I said, one can learn a lot from a big variety of guitar players in all of genres
You are half right, but there s no soul?? The soul playing refers to notes that are emotionally charged that make your hairs stand on end. There is an emotional impact that makes u listen to it over and over. It's in the way a player bends a note . Then u have the robots like Broderick who use difficult techniques but plays NOTHING memorable or that fits the song. His solos leave u cold. He couldn't write a memorable solo if u put a gun to his head. An example of a memorable solo is jimi Hendrix all along the watchtower. guys like Hendrix, van halen, can do more with 3 notes than Broderick can do with an entire fretboard
At 6:44 Chris is absorbing everything he can...look at that intense sight on the fretboard and fingers...Chris might be a complete player BUT you can see the respect on his face....He knows he can learn stuff from the Legend that George is and he chases every second in order to catch up some stuff...Thats RESPECT.
George lynch being humble “you expect me to play after that?”
Starts playing luck at around 6:45
Broderick is blown away
That was cool at 3:25 when Chris was playing and Lynch added some scary into it
The tone Lynch had on the Under Lock and Key album was so good! Especially on the Hunter, that song has amazing guitar tone
Yes
Under Lock And Key. Michael Wagener produced it. They recorded amplifiers placed in bathrooms for part of the mixing. Screw this digital crap.
The hunter, lightning strikes have two of the greatest sounding solos. The hunter guitar sound (even though George has claimed it was a Rockman) is one of my benchmarks for cool tone.
Good ear. His tone on Hunter is wonderful. Very seamless as well. For me his peak.
@@HEADBANGERSBALLER The entire band had exceptional ears and worked very hard to perfect their sound.
Two amazing players with completely different styles. As for the negative comments, one thing you have to remember is everything is polished in the studio. These guys are just sitting around casually playing whatever so you're not gonna hear 'album style polished playing.' They're just messing around here so you have to appreciate it for what it is.
THIS is the type of programming that needs to air on the television side of these music channels, not just online.
but i haven't had cable (or watched FUSE) in quite a few years so maybe this is airing on the television side as well?
this is what people need to be exposed to and hopefully it'll inspire a new generation of players
Chris could technical circles around George, but I love how George's desire and experimentation drove him to create a NEW way. They both bring something different and amazing. I want it all.
Loved Lynch since the 80's. Never seen an interview with him before. I really like this guy.
And Broderick is just mind-blowing. I need a pick clip!!
well he did an interview with dave navaro
George Lynch is a humble guitar God. To this day I am more blown away by Dokkens greatest hits, than any other music of any genre, past or present.
George Lynch's playing is one of a kind.
Such a god
The thing I like about George is that he sounds like George, he has a sound that's identifiable.
He's kinda like if Larry Coryell or Jeff Beck were metal guitarists. Kind of a "purposeful sloppiness".
@@oaktowndimond668 That's a pretty good way to describe it. His low fi way of playing just seems sonically rich where there we a million EVH clones and George had his own way of making the guitar sing.
And Chris sounds like Chris. And I sound like myself. And you sound like you. Revelation.
@@chrisking6695 mmm, no. Satchel sounds like EVH, warren di martini sounds like EVH, Jacob deraps sounds like EVH, etc.
2 licks / 2 notes and you know IT’s George. His sound is timeless
Who gives a fuck about who's better than who. Watch the video, put your egos aside and maybe you can learn something. I know I did.
Thanks to FUSE for uploading this.
Exactly.
Abso-fricken-lutely. Thumbs up.
The look on George face when he sees Chris do the two hand arpeggio runs ahaha.
George Lynch is unique and has his own style and sound.
Lynch is Mr. Scary. Chris is a technician who is studied beyond compare. Lynch has written some of the most unreal riffs and solos in rock guitar history. His personality as a player is truly unique. His licks, phrasing and attack is second-to-none. Chris is a wunderkind.
George is a legend.
George is in my top 5 ever, but Chris is great and both seem like nice guys
Definitely!!!
There are many amazing guitar players today...only watching YT you see many....but to reach the legendary status GL has it takes aso memorable riffs and solos...that's what sets icons appart from great shredders..
In my dreams one of the greatest heavy metal solos of all time
George lynch..so iconic.
Mr Chris Broderick & Mr George Lynch are two of my favorite guitar players!
George Lynch is a metal master.he has prodused so much good music and still does.the legentery Dokken ,the Lynch Mob,the solo and with so many other artists.he is a legend.the other guy is just an awesome guitar player.
I love Chris as a die hard Megadeth fan. It's so cool to see these guys, from two totally different worlds, gel as well as they do.
Ive seen you from a slash video
George is my favorite guitar player of all time and has evolved.
I love when two guitarists come together because they learn from each other you never stop learning..
Two of the best guitarists of all time, with two completely different styles. I love them both!
Chris gave me his pick clip when I went to an Act of Defiance concert that had very little attendance. He's really the chillest dude ever.
I love the look that George gives Chris when he sees the pick taped. He's like "Really?"
Yes, Lynch said What is that ?????jajajajajaja. Chris Broderick maybe invented the artifact that hold the pick but there were already thumb guitar picks used by classic guitar players and Ratt bassist Juan Croucier. You can see Croucier playing You’re in Trouble live 1984.
@@joeiron yeah. but thumb picks aren't the same. it's hard to do harmonics and sweeps with a thumb pick. In reality that pick setup of Chris's is born almost entirely out of that example he showed going from fast playing to 2 hand tapping
Doesn’t Broderick’s pick setup allow you to change picks on his apparatus?
They hit the nail on the head with how music marks time.... I hear a Dokken song and I think about a specific event in my life that happened in 1985.... That's how it works for most of us... I am glad to hear an artist acknowledge it....very cool
3:18 - J.S.Bach - Prelude BWV 999
george ...chilling for 60 years old
+Gore Elohim Time flies so fast,still looks good though in mid 60s.
Lynch seems to me a very humble guy on this one playing a very simple tune...not to show off like he used to...seen his older guitar solo tricks and George would play those difficult hard core notes faster then the speed of a bullet...seems like he's spending more time with family and friends now
Met george at the whiskey. He was a pretty chill dude, signed my esp kamikaze as well
How?
As George simply states that he was a "bluesy (rocker) trying to catch up in the VH era." George is a player of his time and it's been 40 years now comparing them is pointless as players and as artists Broderick grew up in the post Yngwie/M Friedman era with more accessible info and climate where finding employment as a rock musician is feasible-A climate of opportunity people like George helped to create.
The tapping lick Randy ripped from George that made it's way into "Flying High Again" is a compliment to George since, as you can imagine something had to be both musically and technically interesting for Randy to incorporate/apply it.
Broderick is an excellent musician but he is among many these days and will never have the same cache George enjoys. George is to Eddie like JC Van Damme is to Schwarzenegger.
Moreover ,George has done more for the average player in terms of gear innovations including standards and consistency. Sure the venerable PV-5150/6505 is an industry standard but the Mesa DR was a more ambitious concept with more useful features at the time as was the org VHT Pitbull. Only when the 5150 III was released did Eddie bring a useful piece of equipment on par with Mesa/Fryette/Bogner/Soldano and as we all know the org 5150 is just a Soldano rip anyways. Before that it was 2 or 3 version of his fugly looking guitar. The orig Ernie Ball design owes more to the company in terms of quality instrument Eddie primarily just brought his name and an awkward looking design. IMO
Exactly, people compare players of different eras when many players inspired others to pick up the guitar and by way of osmosis through readily available, accessible material, made later players better and better simply by their existence. And Lynch's tone is as legendary as his playing. Good summation.
that's a bit unfair on Broderick, he is one of the top guitarists in the world. hardly one of many get to play for Nevermore/Megadeth..
@Yo-yos Tenbucks Music is music, man. Rhythm and melodies never change. I grew up listening to guitars and I play guitars, so I like music made by guitars, but that doesn't just invalidate other kinds of music to me. What you're saying is essentially the same shit people were saying about jazz back in the day. You're the modern day equivalent of the people that said Buddy Holly is the devil's music.
They are both great guitarists and what makes any guitarists better is they play for the hell of it not fame or money but the pure joy people like me and many others have from just jamming for the pure joy it brings. Thanks and Congrats Chris and George for keeping the joy alive.
George is right about people not wanting their favourite artists evolve, I always see people discording about that when their favourite bands go for a different approach.
So cool to hear them talk so openly to one another.....really cool to get their perspective as players and people.
Two GIANTS.....
lynch's face at 2:57 was priceless
"Throw some heat on it". Just LOVE Lynch's playing. He's been off the boil now and again, and I've heard some rough playing from him on the odd occasion (rough by his standards, not mine) but he always sounds like himself, and always just reaches me. Bloke's playing just makes me so happy!
as much as broderick may be more technically advanced, he still has things to learn from lynch, and lynch knows theres not much he can teach to broderick, but the experience of being onstage is something that can be shown. this is awesome, from a more experienced man to a semi-experienced guy.
With music, learning never stops.
The classic guitar handshake: Hi I'm better than you.
When you hear George Lynch you know it is him. That is such a cool thing for a guitarist to achieve. I love Chris though. End Game is such a great record.
When Chris was explaining that pick device it was really obvious that George was incredibly focused on how he was playing & doing his thing -- then when George was demoing his tremolo style Chris was just as riveted. Really cool how they both wanted to learn from the other one
George and Chris are both great guitarists, but if I could only have the skills of one of them...100% George Lynch!
Man that's Georges custom esp from back in the day. Like the first one. You see the laquer checking. That guitars been places.
Lots of respect between these two. Lynch was clearly someone that Broderick listened to coming up and Lynch as one of the faster players of his era can only respect the improvement in technical performance that the likes of Broderick bring to today's world. Those knocking Lynch should listen to his guitar playing in 2015/2016 and the live gigs. He's still playing well and fast at these shows. He just prefers to slow it down a bit more.
This supposed "improvement and technical ability" .... You mean the robotic, soulless soloing that Broderick and younger players do??? That's hilarious. There has been NO improvement in guitar playing since Edward van halen. This sweep picking 8 finger tapping bullshit heartless soloing is not an improvement . It's about note selection , NOT technique . It makes me sick when Broderick is considered a great player. If he can't write a memorable solo then he sucks . Period.
Alan Lloyd I disagree
@@TheGreatAlan75 Hey Al, pull your head out of your ass and breathe some fresh air.
George is a beast in his own right. Love his style. Chris is a wicked guitarist. Both greats in there own styles
they are both great players BUT there will be no Chris Broderick without George Lynch..
mr lynch is a true legend in his own playing, and dont forget DOKKEN AND LYNCH MOB
And no George without Jimi, Jimmy, and Jeff. And those guys wouldn’t exist without Muddy and Chuck Berry. We all owe such a debt to those who came before, and we show gratitude by passing it along as best we can.
All I have to say is RANDY RHOADS. To this day, NO Rock/Metal player has equaled or bettered his perfect balance of Theory/Soul/Songwriting sophistication/Tone/Individuality/Dedication within the Rock Genre. God Bless you Randy, and thank you for inspiring me to pick up the guitar ♫♫
my jaw just dropped when Lynch mention he is not a theory guy and doesn't even know scales or modes.. Yet his sounds seems to impress me more than Chris.
natadetoto00 it doesnt need any theory to play the pentatonic scale
I bet he doesn't even know what is pentatonic scale... his ears can see the color between notes..
natadetoto00 Dont make a fool out of yourself. Even the most uneducated person in Rock history knows what a pentatonic blues scale is.
natadetoto00 All his solos are in the Pentatonic and he says it himself that its the only thing he knows
***** But we cant keep playing pentatonics for an eternity. Sure they are the roots of out music. But u know we are not neaderdals we evolved to a better race [i think so] just like so Metal has to evolve, everything needs to evolve otherwise there is no meaning
The greatest thing about this is that they're both looking at each other in awe... Chris is such a gentlemen & professional of music he respects George Lynch's contribution to electric guitar. & Lynch knows Chris's guitar prowess & technical knowledge... yet they both as guitarists come together on a genuine & sincere appreciation of each other & guitar art.
Imagine Randy Rhoads sitting in on this session. Randy would be the guy with the huge smile on his face and full of questions. Randy loved to learn from everyone, that's partly why he was the greatest guitarist ever to live... IMO..
MEGADETH is one of the greatest band,ever IMO
Mike Batio is greates guitar player
Classic interview. I always come back to it year after year bless you both awesome
im 26 and every fucking dokken song is so fucking relevant to me
+HESHRAILZ SKATEZ Including Lynch's crown jewel, "Mr. Scary"!!!
I never really herd much of Chris but he certainly can play and is accomplished to the max . George was a freak in the day and his tone and style set him apart from others . The dokken album back from the attack solos were all melodic and constructed amazingly well .
5:57 I know what he means, I tried playing a Lynch solo live once and now my whole left hand is on fire, permanently!
I love that Chris is a similar age to George but the way he looks up to him still proves how much of a Giant George was in Dokken for Heavy Metal and Guitar Playing in General 🤘
Excellent. Chris perfect intelligent humble questioning. Just great. that skill is rarely accompanied by character. Great job.
Probably the most insightful conversation i have heard and seen between two well known guitarist.
Both awesome. Chris is super uber skilled cant deny he rolls over most guitarists like a tank and would intimidate most that sit in front of him with a guitar. I gotta say I love what George is doing today with the more bluesy stuff like with KXM with dug Pinnick and ray. I love the more laid back attitude and then pull out a little fast here n there type thing. I do get tired of flashy players that tend to play fast notes at blitz speeds etc gets a little boring once you get over the Wow factor. At the same time though I admire the skill and wish I could have that skill LOL so ya cant win can ya just be happy and do your thing. :)
"You expect me to play after that?!?" Dude, I just burned my guitar... 🤣
2:56 Lynch is like "What am i watching?"
5:54 that subtle correction... truly inspiring lets get practicing!!!!
I find Lynch more interesting than Broderick. Broderick is just one of many shredders doing the textbook superfast / classically influenced arpeggios thing. Lynch has that bit of dirt and eccentricity that gives a player a bit of character.
Got that correct, man!
Kimon Matara Chris is an Yngwie clone. He's incredibly skilled but I just find him unbelievably boring
Look, George Lynch is one of my favorite guitarists, and to each his own, but don't harsh on Broderick. He's very skilled and evidently rather versatile.
Nobody is tanner than George Lynch.
i'll say he's not other shredder...he's a 7 string riff/lead monster like Loomis, Petrucci and other ones
Eric Valverde you dare compare the god John Petruccinator with Chris Broderick, you mortal fool?!?
Dude, George's experience is so evident here. Not just his playing but his philosophy.
Weird, watching Broderick with lynch is basically like a fan talking to van Halen, yet I get the feeling lynch is intimidated because of Broderick robot playing. It's sad that today's guitarists think difficult technique is needed for great soloing. If you don't use difficult Technique, your ideas are "cheap" , yet the iconic solos in rock history are Hendrix, clapton, etc... I like Broderick but he needs to play.memorable notes
In the eighties, it was the same argument about who is more technical. Especially with the guitarists in George's realm of hair metal. Just a fact. Beyond my years, I've read countless interviews about how Hendrix's guitar "techniques" in the late sixties changed how everyone played (or tried to play). In the late seventies, it was EVH who changed how everyone (including GL) tried to play. I love GL's playing and his attitude. He's awesome! It just seems like he wasn't having a good day playing-wise. You can hear that his tone is really off for this particular day and he seems a little intimidated. He normally plays incredibly well. I really didn't like to see him like that and it made me feel awkward just watching. But being the great type of guitarist that he is... he was taking it all in and you can see the gears turning in in his head about some of Chris's technique.
@@less_concerned1221 agree
Today's guitarist don't think that. Chris is not a contemporary guitarist. He came up during a time when today's guitarist either learned how to crawl or weren't even alive yet. Chris doesn't play like a robot. We don't have robots playing guitar so how can we compare a human to a machine playing? Just because you don't like his style doesn't mean he sounds like a robot. STFU
Strange their playing an evh rig.
Different eras. Lynch is legendary.
Chris is a school taught music theory genius.
I would love for them to collaborate.
.Lynch's Evolution is off the Charts,Lynch is Very Highly Technical and @ 60 yrs old Would Burn this Guy with Licks, Chris could only Imagine, Lynch has been there and Done everything Chris is Doing and More! LYNCH is 75 years ahead of this Wet behind the Ears Kid!!!!!! Lynch is so Humble especially when he's like" You expect me to play after that"..Pure Sarcasm From the Great Guitar GOD! Lynch Rules!!!!
The lick George plays at around 6:32 is probably the best thing i heard played in this clip.
oh yeah George is great, one of best.
Two generations of guitar players sitting together. It's awesome to see how the extreme/shredding of guitar has evolved starting with Lynch and continuing with broderick.
Would be interesting to see Petrucci and Steve Morse go one on one
I often wonder what Randy Rhoads would have done.
Randy would have played rhythm and let the other guy blow it out. That’s the kind of guy he was.
He wouldve outshredded both of them.
fan of chris for an age, fan of lynch for a week, lynch is one of the guitar icons, he kicks ass
It's motor oil versus lube. Lynch is a voice, Broderick a method. Both awesome, different application. If George was a singer, he wouldn't fit in with a choir. But a hell of a soloist.
I prefer cigarettes over cashews.
Chris plays off being Thor pretty well, and the illusion spell that makes Mjölnir appear as a Guitar is a nice touch. 👌
The fingerpicking Chris does at 3.20 look up Bach BMV999. I play it myself :)
+Matt Simon Lynch jam with Chris at 3.20 was awesome.
Big fan of both of these guys. It was pretty funny to see how little they relate on the guitar alone, but then have a genuine connection once they start discussing the feel and experience of making music. Both George and Chris had no idea how to approach each other until they found a common ground. It was fun to watch the conversation evolve.
2:25 George's face XD
I can’t believe that Lynch doesn’t know theory and modes when his solos are theory perfection!
what the fuck was lynch playing in the first 30 seconds?
in the key of z minus bro!
BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!
he talked about Beck alot...clearly he is influenced by that style and is trying to do his own version
Love it!
DragonboltBlastter Random drunk shit
It's fascinating watching guitar players study each other. Like students seeing a new lesson. And yet these guys influence so many others.
I love how style & originality outweigh shredding ability everyday of the week. That's why George will be remembered as one of the greats and why Chris won't even make the list. Athough Chris can shred and prob play almost any style you need, his own playing isn't very stylistic.
Lynch on the hand, doesn''t have to do any fancy techniques to stand out. You hear just one or two notes and you KNOW it's Lynch. Just like EVH, Eric Johnson, Marty Friedman, etc. it's all in his touch & note choices. With his pinchy attack & exotic notes, Lynch created a very original & super seductive style. He also wrote some great & very memorable songs. Nothing against Chris, he's just not a trailblazer. Not IMO anyway. God Bless!
I love how the two different styles of playing compliment each other while under discussion.
don't try to show off in front of the king of Dokken !!
Lindsay Buckingham has played using his open hand since the early 70's. He never gets any love or appreciation man. The man is AMAZING!!!!
George is talking about evolvement and I agree with his point of view, however I can definately say that he was a better player in the 80s. More accurate, faster, better tone-wise.....but especially MORE MORE MORE focused in his playing. If you see his "guitar bible" video you will see the difference. Of course, no words can describe Chris.....
Chris sounds like shit , there is no soul in his playing
Paul Wardinghams
Soul is subjective and used by cry babies who are just bitching because Chris is better than their favorite guitarist.
Michael Z Martin
Just 1 issue you those words are subjective and thus have no meaning. I can give you 2 objective words, Technically superior. You're welcome.
How is it different when Brodrick plays a E harmonic minor from the way Yngwie Malmsteen or any other guitarist does? In any case, George improvises alot when he plays live. Gives his performance more versitility than a tech player like Brodrick. After an hour of listening to Brodrick, you cant wait til it's over. With George,, it's still entertaining.
Michael Z Martin Thanks. Ive been a fan of George and Warren DeMartini's since the beginning . They play alot alike. Warrn does the horizontal vibrato too. I wonder who came up with it first...
3:07 george says “ you expect me to play after that” lol humble man
first 30 seconds.... omg.... that is worse than those fake guitar vids where they replace the real audio with crap. seriously.... did his left hand get crushed by a bulldozer or something? that was horrible and I was always a big fan of this guy. His tone was brutal back in the day and his licks were way more flowing.
+TruthSurge I was thinking the exact same thing lol. It got a little better as he went on. I'm a huge George fan but when he left guitar for a while and went into body building, I don't think he's recovered.
adisharr Yeah, his hands don't look as limber to me.
+TruthSurge spot on with your comments. George needs to spend less time in the gym and more time playing guitar.
+Tony Powell I hate to hear him play like that. Like he dropped his metal style and tried to expand, I get that, but this thin, semi-country tone and his playing at the start were atrocious. It got better as it went but my gosh... it is such a drop from what I recall from songs like Tooth and Nail and many others where he just seemed to rule.
TruthSurge yeah Tooth and Nail and I also loved Wicked Sensation. He seemed a bit in awe of Broderick. Maybe he was just having an off day?
Chris is so nice and friendly. I love that guy. I’ve never seen or heard anything he can’t execute perfectly. Mind blowing technical monster… like Data playing guitar
7:49 - 8:26 most metallica fans should listen here.
Ya, but George is talking about evolving, not devolving.
Lynch one of the top 10 guitarist that influenced me sooo much .Always found those notes that have soo much feeling .It's been a gift listening to his music .Without him I wouldn't be the guitarist I am today .He appears to be so down to earth .I have always wanted to meet him soo much for soo many years .
Not one person commenting on the fact that megadeths guitarist is playing a 7 string
I feel like Chris was just in awe watching George just knowing hes all off the cuff. Probably thinking damn this old man figured all of this out just fucking jamming and listening and has no idea what hes doing... fuck hes amazing... hahaha
