    No way! I’ve been waiting for this forever! Arguably the best 80’s night driving song and Sykes is an extremely underrated guitarist.

    The first song I played with a solo after 2 years of learning guitar. I play it a different way but Sykes played it differently live all the time. Sometimes he was the only guitar player when he's singing it. John Sykes is my favorite guitar player. Thought 1987 (was 16 at the time) was a masterpiece in my eyes. I didn't start playing guitar until my 40's though. "Still of the Night" I've been working on for years. A lot going on there. I saw Whitesnake in 1990 (Steve Vai & Vandenberg) and they played 1987 and 1989 albums in their entirety. I so wanted to see Sykes, thought he would come back...never happened.

      @@CC-qb9sm Viv and Van were great in their own right but they were playing Sykes tunes. I'm a Blue Murder fan too. Sykes thought "Saving My Love" off Nothing But Trouble was going to be as big as "Is This Love" but didn't even crack the top 100. A shame Sykes can really sing too. I hear he was supposed to make a comeback in 2020 then covid hit.
