One other factoid you guys may not know. Don Dokken filled in for Klaus Meine around the recording of Blackout (I think) when Meine had throat problems. I don't think he ultimately contributed vocals to the album, but he was being groomed to take the gig if Meine was out too long.

And in return they gave him studio time which helped with the original version of Breaking the Chains.

 

With the Scorpions Don sang lead vocals in rehearsals for Blackout and on the demos. I'm not sure if some of his background vocals were used on Blackout, if it is it's uncredited.

I've also read that Lynch took over the lessons at Randy Rhoads moms school when he got the gig with Ozzy. Rhoads trusted him enough.

Yeah he called it "constellation prize" and he gained a lot by doing it.

Here's one I forgot about. I was wading through my vinyls and found my Dokken discs. One of them is the Dream Warriors 12 inch single/EP and one of the songs on the B side "Back For the Attack" doesn't appear on the album of the same name or anywhere else. It's a good one too!

:guitar: <<<<< George

 

Like the Lynch model? The snake?

 

I was a bit disappointed with that album, I didn't like the singer and George's tone was kind of crappy and his tunes and solos weren't as melodic. I liked the second one better but even that was a little bit meh! Again the singer was only ok.

You got me Duck. I'm out of Dokken trivia.

 

Oh, wait. Jeff Pilson is also the bass player in Steel Dragon, from the movie Rock Star. So by the end of that movie you could have had a band consisting of Myles Kennedy on vocals, Zakk Wylde on guitar, Jeff Pilson on bass, and Jason Bonham on drums. :haz:

 

"Stand Up and Shooouuuuuuuut!"

Yeah that was a pretty good flick too! Good to see someone like Pilson get a role like that.
