A great live album from a band that's famous for being extremely tight in concert. Lynch's axework is jaw-dropping, and Don Dokken sounds in pretty good shape vocally (though his high notes go a bit flat on "Into The Fire"). One point is taken off because it's hard to believe that a band could sound THAT good -- ah, the magic of the studio! (9 out of 10)

My Jaw dropped when I heard the solo for TOOTH AND NAIL and since then this cd is a milestone in the metal genre!!! Along w Randy Rhoads and Eddie Van Halen, George Lynch was the greatest guitarist in the world. I LOVE THIS ALBUM!!!!

A great Live copilation, but sadly the sound isn´t that good, they tried to do a Studio sound and the drums doesn´t sound clear; however it's a good live Album. fistro1@hotmail.com

I´m not sure what tracklist that is above, but I got double LP and there´s 17 tracks included. All these 14 tracks and also: Standing In The Shadows, Sleepless Night and Turn On The Action. Anyhow, good live act.

George Lynch at his prime. If you love excellent guitarwork combined with catchy songs, go for this album. CD version of the album has only 14 tracks due to time limitations

Excellent live disc featuring the "TRUE" Dokken line-up doing all the Dokken classics.Also features the very prophetic ballad "Walk Away",as just after this release, Don and George did indeed walk away from each other....

This is by far my favorite Dokken release of all. It is like a greatest hits live album. The band is really tight, and George Lynch is great, as usual. Don Dokken's voice is extremely smooth, and the production on this live set is very good. If you have never seen Dokken live, pop in this c.d., crank it up, and turn the lights out, and you will be close. Every song on here rocks. I give this one an 9/10. Very recommended!!

he leido muy malas criticas sobre este album de algunos que se llaman expertos, no dejo de escucharlo desde el 87' y creo que no existe un trabajo guitarrero tan impresionante como en este disco, Lynch tiene fuerza, feeling, calidad, para mi el mejor album en directo en muchisimos años , con un lynch perfecto

This is a great album, I still listen to it. The pre solo to mr scary is what I like the best. The whole damn thing rocks The only bitch I have is that 3 songs were left off the cd. That's a bummer! Pretty ironic that the last song is walk away, considering they were breaking up at this time, that was a cool video. The only downfall of this band is that Don is a ASSHOLE!

After listening to this album 6 to 7 times, i still can't get enough of it. I think i might even put Dokken in the no.1 spot in 'my favourite rock group listing'. I think i'll stop listening to more of dokken cause i don't want them to replace cinderella as my favourite rock act. I don't think dokken care anyway cause they probably have lots of no.1 out there anyway!

From the opening tune, there is no doubt Dokken could produce the goods back in the day. Glad to see they captured the moment when they still knew how to rock. Of an important note, the japanese import version is displayed on 2 cd's containg 17 tracks & worth searching out.

This is probably my favorite Dokken album and is one of my favorite albums of all time. Lynch OWNS here, playing over-the-top from start to finish, and even if he does seem like a big @$$hole, he's still my favorite guitarist! The CD is just full of excellently played songs. 'Tooth And Nail' has to have the best guitar solo in history. I must admit that at first I wasn't into the sound quality, but I got over it. It would be hard to believe another live album from any band could top this...

This a great live album , one of the best in the hard rock music, george is a guitar god, sadly the cd doesn't have 3 amazing songs: standing in the shadows, sleepless nights and the great turn on the action, this one hits your brain and turn on your heart like never before, it's beautiful. Thundering on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! now I Have the 2 cd set from Japan, Thank God.

I have the cassette version, which also includes "Standing In The Shadows" and "Sleepless Nights," (neither of which are essential) and "Turn On The Action," which finishes off the show on a nice, uptempo note. Overall, a solid live album, but my biggest gripe is the sound quality. It has the same, unnatural, reverb-y drum sound as one of their studio albums fro the '80's, and you know that doesn't happen live. Also, the mix is just not bottom-heavy at all, with the bass buried, again, just like their studio albums, and Lynch's thin, trebly guitar tone. Having said all that, the versions of "Alone Again" and "Breaking The Chains' are outstanding, and I like the reworked melody in "In My Dreams" (Don's part in the chorus), but aside from that, few songs add anything to their original versions. I wouldn't be surprised if this were not heavily retouched.

The real gem, of course, is "Walk Away," the studio track tacked on at the end. It's another one of the morose "I've done you wrong and now I'm so sorry, but it's too late" ballads that Don excels at. Come to think of it, that lyrical theme or its opposite ("you've done ME wrong, but I'm still the one who's sorry") sums up just about 80% of Dokken's material anyway. It's no wonder the Scorpions almost hired him; his style of ballad was very similar, musically, to their own at the time.

I don't care if this has been redone in the studio or not. The versions of Just Got Lucky (much more haunting), Alone Again, Breaking The Chains (superb), In My Dreams, Into The Fire and of course Tooth And Nail (even better solo) are all fantastic. This is all the live Dokken I'll ever need thank you very much.

Awesome live show! Dokken plays their best songs. But you can clearly hear some post-production on it. Still, I would love to see this on Dvd. 95/100
