    Dokken wrote some killer tunes. Definitely weren’t the atypical hair metal band, had a heavy side. George Lynch is still a man on top of his game. Much respect to this cover, Ellefson has such a heavy bottom end on his bass, totally badass. Vocalist totally owned the song and the drummer and guitarist amazing chops. Love the R Rhoads inspired Jackson.

      Part of why I agree with Eddie Trunk that we need to get rid of the term “hair metal” some bands get lumped in that shouldn’t be. For example would you equate Dokken and W.A.S.P. with Winger and Poison?

Took me a while to get used to Sean's vocals, but yeah, Phil and Rob shredded it up. And fuck Machine Head - they're a second rate Pantera rip-off band. I bought their first album back in the mid-90's and sold it shortly after. Really generic shit.
