│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ New releases of old, never before seen material, ║ │
│║ always seem to attract the stigma of being a ║ │
│║ mere cash grab. However, in some cases this is ║ │
│║ entirely undeserved, as is the case with this ║ │
│║ latest live release under the Dokken label. It ║ │
│║ reaches back better days when George Lynch was ║ │
│║ still cutting heads for this up and coming 80s ║ │
│║ sensation, and also showcases the talents of ║ │
│║ bassist Juan Crouchier (who later ended up in ║ │
│║ Ratt), who is often overlooked because of the ║ │
│║ presence of better known and more multifaceted ║ │
│║ musician Jeff Pilson. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Like many of the early acts of the day, Dokken ║ │
│║ began earning their reputation where it counts ║ │
│║ in the metal world, on the road. One listen to ║ │
│║ the first song ôParisö and youÆll understand why ║ │
│║ this band was signed by Elektra Records and why ║ │
│║ they became one of the most influential bands in ║ │
│║ the early to mid 80s. The mere fact that this ║ │
│║ show was recorded while the band was still ║ │
│║ something of a local sensation and before having ║ │
│║ a widely distributed LP to speak of, although I ║ │
│║ believe that ôBreakinÆ the Chainsö was enjoying ║ │
│║ regular radio play at this point. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ As was the case with the better known live album ║ │
│║ ôBeast from the Eastö, George Lynch just steals ║ │
│║ the show completely from his catchy riffs, his ║ │
│║ brief lead fills, all the way to the crazy as ║ │
│║ hell guitar solos. Just one listen to the 7th ║ │
│║ track on here and youÆll start saying things ║ │
│║ that other will think you crazy for saying such ║ │
│║ as, ôEddie Van Halen sit down!!ö or ôRandy ║ │
│║ Rhodes is in some troubleö. Between this, ║ │
│║ inspired performances of classic songs like ║ │
│║ ôBreakinÆ the Chainsö, ôNightriderö, ôParisö, ║ │
│║ and even the previously unreleased speed metal ║ │
│║ anthem ôLiarö, and the utter chemistry that you ║ │
│║ can feel the band has with the audience, itÆs no ║ │
│║ wonder that George Lynch claiming to be part of ║ │
│║ an outfit more musically credible than most at ║ │
│║ that time is not only true, but something of an ║ │
│║ understatement. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Fans of Dokken may not recognize a good portion ║ │
│║ of the songs on here, not only because of the ║ │
│║ previously unreleased songs but also because the ║ │
│║ ôBreakinÆ the Chainsö LP doesnÆt enjoy as wide ║ │
│║ popularity as the ones that came after it, but ║ │
│║ fans of 80s cock rock and shred should ║ │
│║ definitely track this down. After more than a ║ │
│║ decade of disliking to downright hating what ║ │
│║ this band has put out, I can finally say that ║ │
│║ something was released that I love, itÆs just ║ │
│║ too bad that it was something old rather than a ║ │
│║ new studio LP with the original line-up back ║ │
│║ together and playing the music that they are ║ │
│║ good at. ║ │
