New Music From Sykes

[angelspade]

Great Playing...As usual

Would have loved a Sykes/Moore collaboration

Where did this come from? Hopefully the Sykes family will try and get the last album and rare tracks like this released.

 

[technomancer]

This is the record company (Golden Robot Records) that Sykes parted ways with. These are demo tracks he submitted to them that they are releasing without the family or estate's permission.

In short, fuck these assholes.

I wonder if John was on Ozzy's radar when he was looking for guitar players? What a monster talent he was!

Yes, he did talk about Ozzy or Sharen contacting him. Maybe on Eddie Trunk’s show.

It's really good but also really dated sounding.

I’ve gone back and forth with this dude from Golden Dildo who put this out in Blabbermouth comments. I won’t listen to that knowing how it came to be. I’m not even a huge Sykes fan, but this is basically some dude who owned a label that is trying to scrape up whatever he can from the floor of streaming revenue from music that wasn’t even completed by Sykes while the family is doing everything they can to stop it.

Whatever this is, it’s some leftover tracks Sykes had that was cobbled together to create a song and who knows what aspects came from Sykes and what was created just to get it on streaming platforms.

Really why? They didn't get permission or did they or do they own the rights to the music?

I don't know and quite honestly I was just glad to hear the track as I'm a huge fan of John Sykes so I will just enjoy this for what it is without the drama surrounding it I guess.

John is gone and there will not be any new music so if the music he recorded before comes out in a physical form like a CD or vinyl I will buy it !

You do you, I have no interest in financially rewarding a group releasing tracks that were never supposed to be released against the wishes of the family.

Why don't they just compensate the family then?

Sharron Osbourne has screwed over just about every guitar player that ever played with Ozzy and I despise her for that,

A perfect example would be how they treated Jake E Lee but that won't stop me from listening to Bark at the Moon again and again even though Jake got nothing for it which truly sucks!

 

[crwnedblasphemy]

I’m thought it rocked! We don’t know the contract.

 

[Floyd Eye]

So, not Wanda ? I’m out.

Yes he was. They talked, and rumored audition. Also rumored Ozzy didn't want to pay what Sykes wanted so they went with Jake. Also this was all around the time he joined Lizzy and Sykes idolized Phil.
