Skid Row's debut.
Saigon Kick's debut.
Dokken, Back for the Attack.
Winger's debut album.

All are better than Crue's best - Dr. Feelgood. Which is great btw.

Never listened to Saigon Kick, and I've never had any interest in Winger, but Skid Row's debut is just Dr. Feelgood part 2, and I might be able to kind of enjoy Dokken if their singer wasn't a completely boring copycat of Klaus Meine from the Scorpions, another band I could give a **** about.

If you say so. I haven't spent much time exploring the back catalog of any of those bands because I don't like anything I've ever heard from any of them. To be fair to Saigon Kick though, I think I've only ever heard one song by them.

I've heard all of their studio and live albums. I don't see how Dokken sounds like Klaus Meine. Meine has a younger sounding voice with more raw power and raspiness, while Dokken's more sleak and melodic during the heavier aspects of their music as well as the softer ones. Heck, I'd say Ronnie James sounded more like him than Dokken, in fact before I knew who he was and before I heard all the albums I thought Rainbow in the Dark was Scorpions.

GNR is getting taken to the woodshed.

Why on earth would you subject yourself to that many Dokken albums? Did you lose a bet?

I've only heard a couple. I was talking about Scorpions.

Also, I went to a Dokken show once, it was the best freakin' show I've been to. I'm not ig on Dokken, but it was way better than the album. Front row, as well!
