Dokken albums ranked

[@andrewprentice8857]

I'm not a Dokken completist so I wouldn't argue with your Top-5 rankings. I kept up with Dokken for their first five albums (plus Beast from the East) but the early 90's pushed pop metal aside, in favor of the likes of Alice in Chains, Nirvana, Metallica, etc. I do think "Back for the Attack" is an album that is carried on the shoulders of Lynch's guitar - both sound and riffs - even more than other early Dokken albums. Thanks for the heads-up about "Dysfunctional". I'll check it out.

Erase the slate with Reb Beach on lead guitar is top five for me. Lightning strikes again is awesome as well. Under lock and key is number 1 for me. Back for the attack 2.

Great ranking bro! This is my top 3, which changes all the time: 1. Back For The Attack 2. Under Lock And Key 3. Tooth And Nail Honorable mention to Beast From The East... epic live album!

[@themindseyecmh]

Three classics for sure! And yes that is a good live album, I picked up a copy of it at goodwill not too long ago

That's my top 3 as well. On BFTA George Lynch was clearly at his peak, as his guitar work was simply _phenomenal_ at the time. It's all there; world class phrasing, the tone, vibrato, and clean, flawless execution.

I've only heard 5 Dokken albums. Tooth and Nail and Back for the Attack are definitely my favorites. Those two are fantastic and very close in quality for me. 1. Tooth and Nail 2. Back for the Attack 3. Under Lock and Key 4. Dysfunctional 5. Breaking the Chains

If your interested, I recommend Erase the Slate and Lightning Strikes Again!

I'm erasing the slate on car reviews.
