Fletchanator's comment: The debut album by Schoolboy Crush (they put out a second, self-titled album in 92 with, I believe, a different singer and bassist) is quite a sought-after rarity. These guys play hard rock with decent vocals and musicianship, gang-style backing vocals and plenty of harmonies. I can definitely hear the influence of Dokken. The production quality is decidedly average, but if you look past that you'll find some good rockin' tunes.
