heaven&hell Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 "Into the Fire" is my choice on this one but "Turn on the Action", "Tooth and Nail", "Alone Again", "Just Got Lucky", and "Don't Close Your Eyes" are all up there for me. This is one cd that needs to be remastered. All the songs are great but the sound is very dated IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mullethead Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 This is my second fave Dokken cd, very raw and I love it! I went with a not so popular song in Heartless Heart. I have always loved that song the best for some reason. JL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LV KIX Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 Seems to be a theme here with me.... I'm going with "Into The Fire". All my Dokken choices have involved FIRE in some way... Hmmmmm..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 'Just got lucky for me'... but I cannot tell you how close 'Into the fire' was. Like JL, I also love 'Heartless Heart' but always had my reservations about it because it's such a stupid lyric. Awesome song, but the term 'heartless heart' irritates me.

Blue Charvel Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 Just Got Lucky, man I got chills the first time I heard that tune. Lynch's phrasing and choice of notes was just awesome, incorporating much of the current playing styles from that era, yet still having a unique voice. My favorite Dokken album by far.

Kim_Hp Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 Slightly weaker album than ULAK, although the title track, "Just Got Lucky", "Into The Fire" and "Alone Again" are absolute killer stuff. Final choice: "Into The Fire" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2023 Gold Donors headbanger4life Posted September 22, 2006 2023 Gold Donors Report Share Posted September 22, 2006 Alone Again and When Heaven Comes Down are my two favs off this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Studboy Posted September 22, 2006 Report Share Posted September 22, 2006 I always liked Bullets To Spare the best on this CD. Under Lock And Key and Back For The Attack were much better albums IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heaven&hell Posted September 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2006 No votes for the Title Track yet, that suprises me. Am I the only one that thinks "Don't Close your Eyes" is a great underrated Dokken song? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Charvel Posted September 22, 2006 Report Share Posted September 22, 2006 No votes for the Title Track yet, that suprises me. Am I the only one that thinks "Don't Close your Eyes" is a great underrated Dokken song? Nope, I'm down wit dat hardcore. I'm probably one of the few that has this as their fav Dokken release though. It just has a harder edge than subsequent releases, plus maybe it's missing the high level of Don/George tension that showed up later or something...

Once they get this remastered I might feel the same way you do, but for the now the "hollow" sound that it has holds it back for me. Back for the Attack is my favorite but Tooth and Nail has almost as many great songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aXe mAn Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 One of my favorite albums by one of my favorite bands! My fav song on it would have to be "Into The Fire"!

HighNDryRulz Posted May 31, 2007 Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 Yeah, there's several good songs on this one. Although it goes against my character, I went with the mainstream song on this one - Just Got Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
