Sykes is back!!!

[zz666]

From the new Classic Rock

The former guitarist of Thin Lizzy and Whitesnake announces his first album for 17 years: John Sykes - Sy-Ops is scheduled to be released in 2017.

The 57-year-old has finished the material three years ago. "But then my manager died. With him I lost someone I could really trust, "he says. "So I put the disc on ice and almost forgot it."

The Englishman is convinced that John Sykes - Sy-Ops , his first album since Nuclear Cowboy of the year 2000, meets the expectations of his followers: "I do not think I'm nostalgic, but who likes what I like on 1987 From Whitesnake and the two studioworks of Blue Murder, the new things should also please. "

lol exactly.... 2 years ago called.. it is still waiting. This will never happen. He should get back with Coverdale and do an album.... actully I would love to see Coverdale do an album with diff guitar players. Kotzen, Beach, Sykes, Vai, Vandenberg, Aldrich... have them all come on for a song or two. The styles would be varied, the solos killer, and the songs all in the same Whitesnake vein. I am not a huge fan of Vai alone but like him in context with bands. He always has a cool sense of rythm.

Coverdale's voice is pretty much done. Saw him in WS with Aldrich about 2 years ago... and his voice was done. Raspy, stretching to hit notes he no longer could. Bad.

Let's see Sykes with someone that can still sing.

 

[thenine]

Look at those 4 holers!

 

[cecilbag]

Sykes is one but of those guys that you know right away when they are playing. I'd love to hear some new stuff but I won't hold my breath

 

[jkdsteve]

Wow....guy dropped off the radar so long ago that I figured he was out and done....would love to hear more Sykes for sure! \m/

Top hat ?

57, probably Krause Meine thing going and too many
chick perms to that hair.

 

[romanianreaper]

Sykes is making sure everyone likes the new album by covering all the required ground fashion-wise"
- Slash hat, check.
- Jerry Cantrell "Facelift"-era boots, check.
- Dimebag facial hair circa "CFH", check.
- Warren DeMartini shirt, check.

 

[Chester Nimitz]

Bring it on ...
