Do you think Dokken have an important share in the history of the American hard rock?

Yes.  They definitely took part in the big hair and ballads of the 80's.

depends on what you mean by "Classic American Country." If you mean Johnny Cash, Faron Young, Lynn Anderson, Loretta Lynn, Skeeter Davis, Buck Owens, Merle Haggard, etc. then yes. \n\nIf you mean this fake pop stuff that's passed itself off as country for the past 10 or 20 years, then absolutely not.

LOL...us granddads....or moms as the case...are not who we used to be.  Your music started with ours.  I have already made it clear, I do not consider the Stones the be all and end all of rock...just the ones still out there making the stage.  They have had good writers, good agents, good publicists and kept in the limelight..does not mean they are the best group.  To me they cannot hold a candle to the Doors or Pink (the band) who they really could be compared with.  But they must have something cause someone is still buying their tickets and music.  Oh heck, I would go see their concert, just to say I have.

THE BEST IS SYD BARRETT who is known as the father of experimental music and psychodelic rock and roll\nAlso Jimi Hendrix, Frank Zappa, and Duane Allman who may be the best slide guitarist in all time.I must mention also the Great Robert Johnson who is also called The Blues Man because some of his tones aren't disovered by no one.You can read  the legend for him and the Devil and their meeting at the "CROSSROAD"\nP.S: It's very funny that some people realy think that gunS and roses and some little bands like them do realy had a place in a music history

You guys should learn some Stone Temple Pilots. It's good for guitarists to learn because the guitar in STP often goes from just simple power chords, to more complex chords. Theres also some solos. Me an my roomate have been playing a lot of STP together, he sings and I play guitar.

Well it depends from what you think as "great".However I think that Jimmy Hendrix,Carlos Santana,Joe Satriani,Steve Vai,Unguie Malsteem,Malcom Young,Slash,Kirk Hammet are some quitarist that should not be ignored,each with his unique style...

Yes I do & have all of their CDs.  I'm also a member of their fanclub on their site. They're the Alabama of the next generation of Country music.  Alabama has even said this about Rascal Flatts.

I think they are great.  When someone says name your favorite rock song though i usually don't think of Dave Matthews band, i usually think of Led Zeppelin, the Beatles and pink Floyd, ac/dc, van Halen, queen and other stuff like that.  But i would say yes they do rock.

no, i obviously love metallica, and there music was good before and after Cliff Burton left, except for Kill 'em All, that album kinda sucked ass. and slipknot also lost a member too, just to point that out.

Classic Rock and Roll is not dead.  It is just not coming over the airwaves.\n\nOlder music lovers either iPod or play self-mix CD's, and many are listening to real Rock and Roll.\n\nThe radio stations tend toward newer releases and have become big business.  They tend to push groups like Green Day, so younger listeners have little choices.  Many have never heard any really good music.\n\nThe mere fact that "Dark Side of the Moon" is still being sold in music stores while CD's cut only two years ago are not, should tell you something about the quality of some of the newer groups.  Who is to say what will be available in ten years?

Dimebag played Dean guitars exclusively as far as I know.  We were about the same age and in the same area.  He got his first guitars through the Sears And Roebuck catalog at the time and as far as I know he stuck with that one style of guitar.  I saw Pantera open up fopr Black Sabbath at Reunion Arena back in Jan 1999 and he as playing the same thing he'd been playing for years.  By the way, Black Sabbath blew Pantera off the stage and were so much better!

David Lee Roth hands down, when he left Van halen, they sold out and went full top 40 band, not a classic hard rock band !!!

Heck YES!  It is well worth it.  I think it's probably their best album, maybe...close call from Blood, Sugar, S*x, Magik.  It is outstanding.
