I have decided to take it upon myself and review one of my all time favorite classic metal albums, from 1987 "Dokken: Back For The Attack".
Now I know some may say, what about Sabbath, Ozzy, Cooper, ect. Well I chose this for a number of reasons. First, I love horror films, and although "A Nightmare on Elm Street 3" was not a very good film, it did feature the track "Dream Warriors" which also hooked me. I did have the cassette and I wore it out once again. I would say my entire neighborhood grew tired of that album. The complete track listing is 1. Kiss Of Death 2. Prisoner 3. Night By Night 4. Standing In The Shadows 5. Heaven Sent 6. Mr. Scary 7. So Many Tears 8. Burning Like A Flame 9. Lost Behind The Wall 10. Stop Fighting Love 11. Cry Of The Gypsy 12. Sleepless Nights 13. Dream Warriors.....I guess the thing(s) that hooked me about this album was Don Dokken's incredible voice. The 80s style of rock (that everyone dug at least sometime), and the fantastic blend of harmonies on top of the vocals --IcedMojo 02.26.03
