The 2013 Martin Popoff ebook about the making of the Dokken album, Tooth And Nail.
Fans in the know overwhelmingly pick Dokkenâs second proto-hair cruncher from 1984 as the bandâs penultimate spread of sugar and spice. For this one, Martin talks to the entire bandâDon Dokken, George Lynch, Jeff Pilson and âWildâ Mick Brownâas well as producer Tom Werman, in an attempt to dissect and understand the massive wars between Don and George, the booze and cocaine, the hirings and firings... this is an epic tale of â80s excess, and Martinâs 12,800 word doorstop pulls no punches. Much of the convoluted early history of the Dokken band is divulged as well, but mostly, what we have here is a celebration of a platinum album that puffed its chest to Van Halen proportions only to become poisoned by toxic animosities.
