Memories from my youth.
One of my favorit bands from the 80’s.
Love the interplay between Dons vocals and Georges guitar.
I got some Robert Plant vibes from Dons marvelous intro to ”Alone Again”.
Great guitar intro by George for ”It’s not love”.
Incredible recording (yes it’s an audio recording)
and superb playing by the band.
It must have been a spectacular night
with so many great bands on the same bill and night.
Enjoy and keep follow and subscribe on my channel northvisions unofficial -GråZon for more goodies to come.

Some notes about the recording and the night:
Iowa Jam '86 Line Up: Aerosmith, Ted Nugent, Dokken, Metallica, Armored Saint.
Incredible line up and an even more incredible recording. This has always been one of my all time favorite bootleg shows (meaning all 5 bands).
What a day for the rockers of Des Moines, not only this amazing festival but also Van Halen played later that evening at the Memorial Auditorium.
The recordings of all five bands are simply amazing, it doesn't get much better than this for an audience recording.
Great show from Dokken at their peak, George Lynch's playing is just awesome.
Enjoy!
Brian.
