George and Mick Brown (the drummer), were basically forced to work with Dokken. They had jammed with him once or twice, but didn't want to work with him. Dokken then took the songs that Lynch had written and got a record deal in Germany, of all places. Since he had no deal at the time, Lynch's hand was forced, so he threw in with Dokken. No wonder they didn't get along.
Well Mick and George were the true talents. Don was a good singer but really nothing spectacular.
