I'm not sure everybody can appreciate this monumental moment, 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."
In the clip below, Jack's introduction sums up the '80s, "this was a love song in 1982." About halfway through the song, Don walks on stage. Watch the video above.
Don Dokken was an essential player in Great White’s early history. Don 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 featured on Great White’s Out of the Night EP and 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. Anyhow, a great moment in history went down and I just wanted to acknowledge it.
