Dokken “It’s Just Another Day” Video Premiere w/ Don, George Lynch, Jeff Pilson, Mick Brown

Dokken, featuring original members Don Dokken, George Lynch, Jeff Pilson and Mick Brown, just premiered a video for their new song “It’s Just Another Day.”  Listen to the track below.

In 2016, the classic lineup reunited to play the world famous Loud Park Festival in Japan. The performance was filmed and, on April 20th, will be released on CD/DVD. Titled Return To The East Live, this set also features footage from the classic lineup’s only US reunion show of 2016 in Sioux Falls, SD at Badlands.

Don Dokken says, “After 25 years, it was great to reunite with George and Jeff and Mick and do a couple shows for the fans. We hope you like this album and video. There’s a lot of great bonus footage of us having fun, so enjoy it!”

Bassist Jeff Pilson on the forthcoming release, “I’m so thrilled this piece of the Dokken story is hitting the streets! What a magical experience it has been and this CD/DVD captures a lot of that wonderful manic energy that has always made Dokken so vital! I remain extremely grateful to have been a part of such a vibrant voice in the world of heavy rock. Thanx to the fans and to George, Don and Mick for being the musicians, writers and friends that you are!”

Jack Russell & Don Dokken @ Whisky A Go Go – Great White “On Your Knees”

I’m not sure everyone can appreciate the monumental moment happening here, but I know you’re out there.  A reunion of sorts went down on February 3, 2017 at the Whisky A Go Go when Don Dokken joined Jack Russell on stage to sing the early Great White classic, “On Your Knees.”

Jack’s intro sums up the ’80s, “this was a love song in 1982.” It’s about halfway through the track that Don walks on stage.

____________________________________________________

Don Dokken was an essential player in Great White’s early history. He was listed as a producer on their first independent EP, Out of the Night(1983), as well as being credited with back up vocals and as a co-writer on the track “On Your Knees.”  The song was appeared on Out of the Night and was also re-recorded for their self-titled major label debut. There’s just something so raw and pure and so L.A. about Great White’s 1982-1984 era.  A great moment in history went down and I just wanted to acknowledge it. -DPJ

“No Way” from Out of the Night
