      Man.. takes me back! What great collaboration of musicians. To think Ozzy passed on George Lynch looking for a guitarist after Randy passed. Which I'm a huge fan of Jake E. Lee. A time when musicians still played instruments. There still talent out there, but the music, should say industry, lost its way. Technology has played a big part as well, in shaping where we are today.
      Back for the Attack is 30 years old!!

    Dokken is the best band out of the 80s and in my heart of all time... I'm only 17 and still feel like I'm one of the biggest fans around. Wish I could grow up in the 80s, sucks that most young people can't appreciate good music and blast shit rappers instead of the dokkens, van halens, ratts, Zeppelins, iron maidens etc.

    “Up From The Ashes” was one of the first CD’s I ever bought. I was 14 years old and saw this video on TV. As soon as the video was over, I immediately walked to the local music store and got the album. I used to blast it on my headphones while playing Golden Axe on my Sega Genesis. Good times!

    i adore don dokken! sadly no one around my age knows who he is, (im 17)
    i can name around 20 of his songs.
    my friends usually look on my mp3 and see dokken and go "whos that?"
    i try to play them some of their greatest songs but as soon as i tell them that its an 80s band, they ignore them and go bak to listening to stuff like kesha...

    #UpFromTheAshes is the best #Dokken record ever made. This is one of those albums that you listen to from beginning to end. There is not a bad song on this record. Like so many have already said, the #guitarwork on this album is #stunning. The stars aligned for this album and they're never be another Dokken record this good.

    As a big fan of George Lynch and Dokken (the band)... this is how Dokken should have sounded live; 2 guitarist's that kick @ss!! Don Dokken is an awesome guitar player yet for some reason (hm???) he let George handle it all. Never worked live!! ~ These guys live (in this video) were the bomb!! BRAVO!!

      Don is responsible for that Dokken sound, not George. Lynch Mob sounded like a whole new band, and this album sounded like a new Dokken album at the time. I still imagine George, Jeff Don and Mick playing these songs when I listen to Up From The Ashes to this day.
