White Lion - The Best of White Lion

The Best of White Lion' is a fantastic collection from a band that, while they teased their hair as high as anyone, actually carried musical chops that were rare within the genre.Vito Bratta was, at one point, considered the heir apparent to Eddie Van Halen as THE metal guitarist.This is a decent collection that includes most of what it should. "Wait" and "When The Children Cry" seem to be the most popular, but I also really like "Tell Me", "Little Fighter", and "Farewell To You". Their cover of "Radar Love" is good too. Overall it's a great bunch of songs, and will go perfectly with your "Great White" and "Whitesnake" album.While Vito displayed a technical proficiency that garnered enormous respect for him. That respect hasn't faded away, even though Vito himself seems to have. Greg D'Angelo could pound the skins with the best of anyone at that time, and James Lomenzo's bass playing rounded out the rhythm section. Mike Tramp added a very distinct vocal style, helping to complete the band's unique sound.
