Jake E Lee has released 2nd album as Red Dragon Cartel, “PATINA”. Although the well received previous album “Red Dragon Cartel” had songs like “Deceived” which his guitar riff reminded fans of his style in Ossie’s ere, he went back to his roots, Rock on this album. He displayed real Rock sounds played by real musicians and experimental various guitar sounds. You will get pulled magically into the world of his guitar and the band with every listen. I assume that this set will be loved by fans for long time. Muse On Muse interviewed Jake E. Lee himself about the new set “PATINA”.
