Dokken – The Elektra Albums 1983-1987

Excellent edition. All the vinyls sound very good. Perhaps the covers seem to be a little darker compared to the originals.

For a non-remastered reissue of the classic albums, this is a really nice clean pressing. If you're expecting to be wow'd with headspace or more clarity than the original releases, you won't find it here. What it does give you is all the classic studio albums in a slim, convenient box. There's no extra frills within the packaging. It forces you to indulge only in the music as it was originally released. There's very little to no noise between songs, and I hadn't heard a single pop between the four albums. So I'm happy with it, I hope this helps.

Sounds excellent and packaging is good. I think the Friday Music versions have better packaging with the gatefolds but sounds like same masters to me which are very good.

Packing isn't anything special but Back for the Attack is finally on 2 records and the remasters sound fantastic! Definitely worth the purchase!

Breaking The Chain side A is warped dish warped and has groove distortion on intro to Felony.

Other records have slight warps minimal but play fine. Loud snap at the end of Night by Night, thankfully the last 3 seconds during fade out but still. QC sucks on any records pressed today it's a shame. These honestly sound amazing remastered compaired to my OG CD's but still for a 130$+ boxset I should be getting flawless records.

Covers are a little flimsy and thin. Also, compared to the original album covers, these are darker and are not as detailed (probably scanned). Sound is awesome, dead quiet between tracks after a good wet cleaning. I was going to sell my originals but will probably keep them just due to the much better artwork and printing.
