I'm biased because I love White Lion's music. Vito makes your eyes water with his guitar playing.The beautiful solos in When The Children Cry & Wait are just left of heaven.

They had some Classic hits with Little Fighter,Wait,When The Children Cry,and the remake of Radar Love. One of those bands like Tesla that deserved a better fate.

White Lion is always a good listen.They will fall short of the RRHOF. So will many other groups. KING

White Lion is one of my FAV groups. Wished they had made 2 or 3 albums before they split. Wait is one of the best songs start to finish I've ever listened to in last 30 years. Vito definitely RRHOF guitar talent. It's a shame. They won't be inducted but I still love their sound. KING

I can only name two songs from the group White Lion. Those songs were "Wait" and "When The Children Cry."

I remember buying the Pride album on Cd back in 1987. It was good music to party to and still is. I think I had the Big Game album on audio cassette but not sure what happened to it, I liked the Radar Love song on it. Same thing with the Mane Attraction album, and I really enjoyed the song Love don't come easy. I'd like to ask the RRHOF why rap and country stars get in but not the majority of glam? Alternative bands like Green Day are overrated and overplayed on the rock stations. The 80's will always be the best, miss that 24 hour metal music videos on MTV back when that channel was cool. I would take listening to any glam band now over any other kind of music.
