MR

I told Rip I will buy myself a Dokken CD of his choice if I can get my MR account activated. Well, 15 minutes after i sent Andrew an Email saying "Rip Sent Me", here I am. I've been lurking for almost a year and i feel like I'm one of the big boys (and gals!) now...he-he... Thanks Andrew! oh and Rip, Im not worthy.

Go easy on me.

Welcome to MR! You'll find that you're not the only one around here who's completely indokkcicated.

Welcome!!!

Sorry you have to listen to Dokken now!!

LOL -- no, you can't get off that easy! A good starter for sure, but the other one has about twice as many tunes, every single one of them great.

Old fan, lost track of them after SP left, came back after i saw SA in Vegas then ate my crow after seeing them in SLC. I guess I am all of those. I never stopped listening to JSS Ballads, (and other JSS boots) Arrival, TBF, Escape, etc. - they are in constant rotation in my iPod.

Trust me, you'll love it, and Jeff Scott Soto handles background vocals -- always good to hear him in any capacity!

welcome
but under lock and key its thier best

Under Lokken Key is definitely their finest album. I still recommend LSA for the modern ears, and ULAK for a next full album, or just a big GH package which contains most of the best songs anyway.

Listen to Rip, he's right you know

I think Under Lock and Key is the best too, tho. I like Back for the Attack as well, Heaven Sent

Gotta be Tooth and Nail followed CLOSELY by Under Lock and Key, but hey, that's me, I liked KISS' The Elder.......

Huh?

I have actually been digging "Back for the Attack" more lately, due mostly to "Kiss of Death". Lynch's rhythm playing on that song alone is almost worth the price of the whole album.

I'm digging Judgement Day. That guitar sounds very UFOish.

LOL -- it was an all-encompassing statement! You are the standard for truth and clarity on MR, and like any good shepherd, you don't mind corralling the sheep when they go astray... haha!

Definitely my favorite song on that album, and a killer riff. Always enjoyed how Reb Beach pays a sort of homage to it on "Change The World" from Erase The Slate.

That was quick! You got it already? Keep me posted on your LSA trip... haha!

Or sheering the sheep on occasion... LOL!

By the way, I thought about you today. If you saw the news, some freak entered the local Democratic H.Q. and shot the chairman with a pistol -- he died soon after being taken to the hospital. I happened to be working in a building directly across the street when it happened. The deceased was a good man, and a well liked person in our city. You know some people are going to spin this for political advantage and try to associate the killer with conservatives or Republicans, so I'll need your help to slap them when they do. Seriously.

It's already happening in some circles.

Spinning...One of the links I went to while looking for the story mentioned that Michelle Malkin and Sean Hannity were being blamed already. Truthfully, that hasn't been verified but it wouldn't surprise me.
