Dokken is one of my sister's favorite bands of all time. They really were a fantastic band.Dokken could hit several octaves & George Lynch was a Guitar Legend.

They had a nice string of 80's hits: Dream Warriors,In My Dreams,Tooth & Nail,Alone Again,Burning Like A Flame, etc. Now its 2014,I can't believe Dokken weren't superstars. They were a nice looking band & Dokken had the vocal greatness to match Lynch's brilliant guitar work. Just a mystery.

Beast From The East is one of my FAV all time albums. I just love KISS OF DEATH dealing with the AIDS epidemic of the time. A simple one night affair can cause destruction for a lifetime. Really powerful stuff.

I really would put Dokken in the RRHOF. They had a profound effect on the many metal listeners of the 80's. Can't think of many bands who were better. KING

Dokken were Led Zeppelin great as far as I'm concerned. Musically,they could do anything. Back For The Attack easily one of the most underrated CD's of the late 80's.

I think if Dokken arrived in the scene 2014 they would be superstars. Unfortunately,the 80's was saturated with heavy metal bands. Motley Crue,Bon Jovi,Cinderella,Poison,Def Leppard,Stryper,Keel,WASP,KISS,Iron Maiden etc. Dokken never received their proper due for some reason.

U listen to Dokken & shake your head.This stuff is really brilliant. I like the Burning Like A Flame song & video with Dokken riding on a fire truck. These Great Dokken members should be riding into the RRHOF. Time to right the wrong. Dokken Hall of Fame 2015. KING

Rocking with Dokken. Always. Love this band. Band that started with nothing and worked themselves to the top. They deserve this and worked for it because they are talented. Strong vocals bad ass guitar. Equals great music. Look forward for there success.

Really perplexed that they have not been considered in yet. Lynch by his own is a living legend.
