As a lifelong Dokken and Sir Lynch fan since the first time seeing Just Got Lucky at midnight on MTV as a teen, after 35 years of metal, came to the conclusion this is probably the favorite song of all time. No small feat with all of that music and shows. Hole In My Head from Dysfunctional and Just Walk Away are right up there with insane monster tones King George grabs in the solos. Which is saying a lot. How do you not include All I Want, and The Secret, and Paris Is Burning, and Heaven Sent, and Dream Until Tomorrow, and...
"Just Got Lucky" from Beast From The East live; nothing compares because Lynch is so smooth, melodic, and pleasingly sounding. When George was on, few compared. I always felt like Warren DeMartini had similar talent. The "unplugged" years sunk metal and ushered the brief grunge era, now mostly forgotten. As such, the beauty and talent of the original metal era is a heartwarming memory. Fluorinated music Now reigns.
I have watched this bootleg about a dozen times now...and I have got to say that this is one of the best solos I have ever heard. I have seen Dokken over a dozen times in my life in the 80's and George's work here is nothing short of sublime. Just one of those once in a lifetime lightning in a bottle moments. 😉🤘
BaldMaxx agreed!! However Reb Beach on the live version did a jam up job making it his own. But, there is only and truly one George Lynch!! Hail to the King of the 6 string!!
Frank Erickson I agree, I remember To High To Fly came on the radio the first time I heard it I was like, WOW! Got the album and it wore off. But over time it has grown like a revisit to it and realized it is real good. Guess I was to caught up in the Country Line Dancing craze at the time cause I hated most grunge music which ended my favorite era of ROCK music.
This is the best sounding crappy bootleg! The boys sound GREAT: Wild Mick's crush groove, Pilson's punchy clicking grind & vocals, Don still had most of his voice intact, and of course Lynch went off into creative rock fusion nirvana... Lynch doesn't always land on his feet live, but OMG he did time and again here... I watch/listen to this time after time and time and it never gets old....
I always heard that he got into bodybuilding as a result of breaking his back in a mountain biking accident and the resulting rehabilitation that followed.
I was at this show...at the Vogue in Indy..one or more those hands you see by George were mine..Little did we know that it would be one of the last GREAT Dokken shows w/ the orig FOUR....They KILLED IT. I JUST GOT LUCKY. I'm sure you'll agree. MFers just a big part of my life growing up...and they'll never be dup'd....
I vividly remember seeing this show in Raleigh '95 w/Bon Jovi ... I've seen Dokken a few times in the 80's.. this show had a bit more punch than others I've seen... It's funny seeing this, being we were seated about this close.. what I remember mostly was this very song... after they played it, there were two teenage boys seated in front of us... they looked at each other with a big smile... one said "who the F... are these guys ??"
Kool to see the Peavey XXX amps behind GL when I met him the first time in Detroit his Mgr told me about GL designed the XXX with Peavey but mentioned there was a falling out just before production? something he said like that
Too high tô fly, live Indy 1995 na época no conhecia dokken mais há algum tempo, time conheço muitos álbuns deles esse guitarr é bom mesmo e os outros também.
I think that's his Kamikaze IV, the one that was multi-colored. He had it sanded down to bare wood to make it breathe more. This was the last tour for this guitar.
Jake LaGuna 1 second ago Not true on the banana head stocks... I have owned three GL REAL ESP kamis... The one he is playing here is not a Kamikazi... It's a 1988 ESP maverick with reversed head-stock, and is neck-thru... not a bolt-on.. So it is very rare...
1984 San Diego Sports Arena they open for Ronnie James Dio go front row all the hot chicks standing in our seats I say 2 the one chick get out of my chair. Don says here to see show aren't you I said yes sir man best album last 20 years. Huge smile on his face. They were awesome even Ronnie James Dio Said weren't those guys badass
@onebadasian I agree both are good but I prefer Reb's because it just sounds downright predatory, especially with Jeff laying down that dangerous, sexy groove beneath it.
Don looks a little strung out to me. But he still performed well. It was good to see George with the band, but in my opinion, Reb Beach did a much better solo in the 1999 video. Not that George's wasn't great it was, but Beach's was different it had a more surreal sound. Watch it and see if you might not agree.
A Tabish yeah because CC actually wrote hit songs and had a chemistry with the band that Kotzen never had. It just goes to show that technical proficiency isn't everything in regards to being successful as it relates to music.
@@alanndrake2619 native tongue still is a masterpiece million times better than all the other cds made by poison. The fact is that poison was a pretty stupid band like steel panther nowadays, and Richie was and still is a too complex and too serious musician for that kind of bands.
Axel and here's another fact, great songs sell albums and to suggest that Native Tongue was better than Look or Open Up is patently absurd as there' were MAYBE two songs really worth listening to in Stand and Theatre.. I'll take being the rock star and success that CC enjoyed over the technical prowess of Kotzen that paled in comparison.. When people turn on the radio and hear Poison they want an actual rock song like TDTM or Nothing but a good time not the over technical stuff that Kotzen plays and if by stupid band you mean mega platinum selling artist then we'll have to agree to disagree how success is defined..😂
@@alanndrake2619 I'd like to be stupid like them😂. Anyway I totally agree with you. Rk wasnt in the right place at the right moment. But in my opinion NT is a truly masterpiece, better than the others but I understand that this album was too complicated for poisons fans and they wanted to have fun in the old way.
pilson is KILLING that bass.. love the chop groove
Totally underrated I always have to come back and listen to this I can't help it. Phenomenal bass player

Just walk away
There'll be no more tomorrows!
lynch's tone in here is badass.

Agreed, I've seen this video a few times and Mr scary is truly living up to his name. Hail the six string king.
You ain’t kiddin. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
George is awesome but the lack of chemistry between him and Don makes this hard to watch at times.
It seems this is is not considered their best cd. The music grew on me over time. Now I really like most of the songs.

probably one of the best live boots of this tour.
Saw this show in club casino hampton Beach NH Amazing george lynch in a small setting unreal
best live performance and lynch guitar trip incredible he one and only
Odd fact - George Lynch started seriously body building after being mugged and beaten up following a "Lynch Mob" gig at NYC's The Limelight in 1991.
I always heard that he got into bodybuilding as a result of breaking his back in a mountain biking accident and the resulting rehabilitation that followed.
KARMA IS A BITCH
@@dalemclean5254 Yer gunna have to explain that one Dale. Who are you suggesting Karma is being visited on?
@@Rockarollr the getting mugged story was told to me by Oni Logan.
George isn’t tall. I was once in an elevator with him at a gig and I don’t think he’s much more than 5’8.
Pure, unadulterated TUBE amplified METAL... Never to be equaled or duplicated...
Jeff Pilson (bass player) and the entire front row realized at the 4:30 mark that they were experiencing a Van Halen moment.
what chemistry between those three....... musicianship at its best
I'm pretty sure I was at this show...I've seen them 14 times...11 w/ George..killed it.
Thanks for posting this one. George Linch included this is great. This is my fav Dokken song. Too high to fly man! Thanks.
That was one fucking wicked Solo George lynch Laid down Here Never heard this Before. One hell of a player.
i wish they would release this concert on dvd
The very best killer Dokken lineup! This is a killer song, much overlooked but killer never the less.
That whole album is overlooked. If any 80s rock band added 90s rock influences the best, it's Dokken for sure.
I agree this song is awesome and the album is very good
I believe that concert was at the rave in milwaukee it was a fantastic show....
I was at this show...at the Vogue in Indy..one or more those hands you see by George were mine..Little did we know that it would be one of the last GREAT Dokken shows w/ the orig FOUR....They KILLED IT. I JUST GOT LUCKY. I'm sure you'll agree. MFers just a big part of my life growing up...and they'll never be dup'd....
That crowd sure was liking it and no phones.
The only time I saw dokken was like a week or before this show at the Capitol Theater in Flint Michigan which I believe was tore down shortly after
I saw this tour in '95, Dysfunctional was the album I believe. Good show for sure. It was at The Edge in Palo Alto, Ca.
One of the best songs from Dysfunctional (great album btw), simple and with good message.
Amo la destreza y capacidad de interpretación de Lynch, en fin una excelente banda!!
De ésas que ya no hay😢
Never heard this b4. Fukkin KICKASS DOKKEN!!! I LOVE IT! A DOORS influence kind of...

George lynch, amazing!
Kool to see the Peavey XXX amps behind GL when I met him the first time in Detroit his Mgr told me about GL designed the XXX with Peavey but mentioned there was a falling out just before production? something he said like that
This is awesome
Too high tô fly, live Indy 1995 na época no conhecia dokken mais há algum tempo, time conheço muitos álbuns deles esse guitarr é bom mesmo e os outros também.
Posted some comments 4 yrs ago...same thing now. Great F#cking Show. Period.
GL soo underated this song smokes and the solo was great!
Reb Beach played this solo too but with his version. I love both of them.
The version with Reb has a much better bass grove Jeff is a hard playing bassist
That solo was scary.
Y'all missed the Don and George slugging it outside the tour bus after running to Mexico for ❄️🌨️ 🤣
George Lynch is a beast
I think that's his Kamikaze IV, the one that was multi-colored. He had it sanded down to bare wood to make it breathe more. This was the last tour for this guitar.

I wonder if this was when they played at The Vogue?
ナチュラルフィニッシュのカミカゼIVがあったのか。
Funny
Is that a mesa boogie on stage ?
Holy timing issues,Batman!

Reb Beach plays it ten times better on the "Live from The Sun" DVD imo.
Reb Beach covered this well weird when you're replacement is as good as you Poison Richie Kotzen in for CC that wasn't even a contest

You can't even spell "Lynch"...
Reb Beach > George Lynch
