Dokken exploded out of the boiling hard rock/heavy metal scene in Los Angeles in the early 1980s. Their breakout hit album, Breaking the Chains, set the stage for Dokken to become one of the most dominant creative and commercial force in the world of melodic hard rock.
A British born rocker who grew up on the streets of L.A., Lita Ford is considered one of the most influential female representatives of the rock genre.
