I think George Lynch is the most overrated "shredder" of the 80's and 90's. I can't think of one song of his that moved me. He's often the guest guitarist on That Metal Show and every time he leaves me scratching my head as to why he's on tv. I saw Dokken around 1988 and remember being so excited when George came out on the stage. Then I sort of wondered why I had thought he was great. I just don't get it. His solos do nothing for me and don't sound that impressive. Seems like a nice enough guy and definitely looks the part. Otherwise, huge overrate.
