    I'm so lucky to have seen the original lineup live in 1991. They were great live! They were with Vixen and Ozzy Osbourne. It was an amazing show I'll never forget.

    Maybe I am the acceptation to the rule.. but I loved the “Big Game” album.. I liked all their albums but “Living on the Edge” is one of my favorite Whit Lion cuts …

    Fight to survive is good. It’s a lot better than Bon Jovis debut. I really like the first 3 albums, I never got into Mane Attraction.

    i love all white lion albums, but hands down, imo, big game is the best. idk why people trash it. Mind you, i was buying the albums as they came out. At first i was a little unsure of big game, but after a couple listenings, it toattly won me over. production was much better as well. Vito has said the baby be mine solo is his favorate. and btw, one of my fav tracks on the album. imagine how good it cldv been if they got a rest.

    That concert announcement near the end … “Columbia, Md opening for Ozzy Osbourne.” I was at that show. I’m pretty sure Vixen opened that show. White Lion was awesome.
    I remember, during the Ozzy show, Zakk fell coming down a ramp from the drum riser.

    I saw them twice, once in Boston and once at the Cat Club NYC in the mid 1980's. They sounded a lot like Van Halen, hard rock, then Pride came out and I was like is this the same band?

    I liked Big Game just as much as Pride. If White Lion had a right album, wrong time release it was Main Attraction. A heavier album might have carried them after Big Game.

    Pride is their best album and broken home is the best song on the album, I'm still shocked it was not the 3rd single when ballads were what pushed these hair metal albums to platinum at the time. Its really mind boggling when you think about it, if you lived through the 80s and dial up mtv which was ruled my metal ballads especially in the later part of the 80s..

    Vol 3 this is great news one of my favorite bands and why they weren’t headliners and have little more than 100k subscribers is beyond me Vito + Tramp meshed they were great , haven’t been on in a while great to be back on Full in Bloom

    I'll never understand the flak they took for the Big Game album. Their technical abilities were really on display and the mixing on that record was nearly perfect, in my opinion. I never thought of it as a 'lighter album'. That's ridiculous.
