On August 28th, Silver Lining Music will proudly release 11 cracking gems from the vaults of Don Dokken, titled ldquoThe Lost Songs 19781981rdquo. It was during those vital years that a young, motivated Dokken from Southern California stepped into Media Arts Studio in Redondo Beach to lay down some unfiltered, unpasteurized rock lsquonrsquo roll songs.nbsp He then brought those with him to Hamburg, Germany where Dokken influenced by the likes of Scorpions forged a historic alliance, working with a young German producer called Michael Wagener, who would later help craft multimillion selling albums for the likes of Motley Cruumle, Metallica, and Skid Row as well as Dokken.nbspnbsp From the sunbaked SoCal hook of ldquoStep Into The Lightrdquo to the ldquoBack In The Streetsrdquo furious, fledgling, late Sunset Strip sound, ldquoThe Lost Songs 19781981rdquo shows Dokken in the unfettered early days of ballsout attitude, as well as showcasing the songwriting skills which would see them sell over 10 million albums and him become an international rock lsquonrsquo roll star.Further cuts like ldquoFelonyrdquo carry a thuggish fuzzcoated riff think early Van Halen in really greasy embroidered denims while ldquoDay After Dayrdquo showed that Dokken could pen a radioslaying ballad. The feral edge of ldquoBroken Heartrdquo and developed Dokken trademark of ldquoNo Answerrdquo further illustrate the bandrsquos fast growth, with ldquoHit and Runrdquo standing as the very essence of exactly what Dokken would end up being to millions of ears for years to come.nbsp The result is an exciting look back at the genesis of Dokken, and the realization that from the very beginning, Don Dokken was lean, mean and hungry enough to make it all count in the years to come.
