Album Description

Great White's sound has more in common with the Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, and Led Zeppelin than that of their contemporaries. Great White consists of nearly all original members, the most recent of which has a nine year history with the group. The guitar and vocal team of Jack Russell and Mark Kendall are stronger than ever on this explosive new CD and have a unique synergy, not unlike Plant/Page, Tyler/Perry or Jagger/Richards.

1 out of 5 stars Back to the Rhythm.......2007-07-30

Disappointed. Not a single song really stands out. I feel the band was either lazy or didn't care...weak songs and most of them sounded like previously recorded songs with a few changes in the notes to make it sound like they were trying to be original but couldn't do it. I was hoping to hear some blues melted down with some hot riffs and new stuff--songs to rip your head off and also make you feel the blues like their older stuff. Sorry folks but a real let down, save your $$$ on this one.

4 out of 5 stars Shark attack on the horizon.......2007-07-27

It's good to see that GW is back,and,might I say,with a vengeance. I kind of quit listening to them after Once Bitten,but after listening to this latest release,it takes me back to what I believe was their best effort "Shot in the Dark".This one stands along beside it as a fine Rock 'n'roll release. It sounds like 1985 all over again,and in this case,that's a good thing!

5 out of 5 stars Excellent comeback album.......2007-07-25

This is as good as the "Can't Get There" album, and probably their best recording since 1992's "Psycho City". If you like their brand of blues-based hard rock, you will NOT be disappointed with this one. Standouts include the title track, "here goes my head again", and "standin' on the edge", but the whole album is particularly strong. No overly-modern or brand new style here, this is Great White simply doing more of what they've always done best.

These guys can still rock, as this effort proves, and I certainly hope they stick around for a long time.

5 out of 5 stars Very solid and satisfying.......2007-07-21

This album has a more stripped down sound, and in fact it takes me back to earlier songs of theirs such as "Face the Day". It sounds very fresh, and unlike their last album, everything seems very consistent. It's not overproduced and attempting to be retro-chic like "Can't Get There From Here", it has its own space in the music. The playing is spot on, and I would recommend this even if you don't like their hairmetal days. Most Great White stuff has some redeeming value because of its blues influence, and here they shine. (Except, of course, for "Lovin' Kind" off of "Hooked", that was just hideous. And whatever song it was Dokken helped out on from their last album, that was a little lame.) "Back to the Rhythm" is tight, hot, and consistent...the kind of album you turn on and just leave on, because it's right. Support good music, get a copy! Otherwise don't be surprised if you keep hearing American Idol rejects on the radio....

5 out of 5 stars Great white is the best.......2007-07-19

I have been a great white fan for a long time, I was so happy to hear that they have a new album It is the best I have heard in a very long time they have made a great come back KEEP ON ROCKIN

As fans of Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy know, each film exists in two versions: the theatrical one and the extended one that appeared on DVD. This luxurious box set--which also comes with a detailed essay on the movie's musical themes--features the full extended score, so many cues not on the CDs of the individual movies are included. Granted, the majority of listeners will be perfectly happy with the shorter versions of the scores--it's a safe bet that most people can live without hearing, say, Ian McKellen's 35-second-long ditty "The Road Goes Ever On" at the beginning of "Bag End," or Viggo Mortensen's performance of his own composition, "The Song of Lúthien," within the track "The Nazgûl." But if you're a completist and/or a devotee of Howard Shore's pounding tympani and overwhelming choral compositions (featured particularly prominently on disc 3, a large chunk of which is devoted to a battle scene), then this set is a dream come true. Audiophiles should note that the fourth disc, a DVD, offers the score in Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound. Fire up those speakers so the whole shire can hear. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

Album Description

An epic film score receives epic treatment with The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring/Complete Recordings. Released for the first time on CD, the complete score for the first film in the Lord of the Rings trilogy contains more than 180 minutes of music on three CDs plus a DVD-Audio disc of the entire score in Surround Sound. Breathtaking and majestic, the 2001 Oscar and Grammy winning score compsted by Howard Shore also includes Enya's Oscar nominated "May It Be." For fans of any of The Lord of the Rings films, the Fellowship of the Ring/Complete Recordings is an essential experience.

5 out of 5 stars Beautiful.......2007-06-15

I picked up this set because I am both a LOTR fan, movies and books and I need music to help me work. There are some tracks that I skipped over, like the short little ditties in the bar, but many of the songs, such as the Elvish chants are easy to get lost in - its just too bad they don't last longer. The packaging really is well done, though the DVD disc was loose when I received it in the mail, but unharmed. I will have to wait until the price on the second set comes down a little more, but I can't wait for ROTK.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome.......2007-06-12

This is by far the editon to get if you loved the lord of the rings soundtrack. It has every song on it from the extended edition. and the DVD-A version is very nice.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Music tracks from Movie.......2007-05-03

Brings the movie back as you listen to the full version of the track.

3 out of 5 stars Complete?.......2007-04-07

This CD collection is wonderful; it has much of the material from the movie that was only included in the extended edition DVD, but it is far from complete. While it does have the complete version of "The Passing of the Elves" and two versions of "The Road Goes Ever On", many of the songs are highly incomplete and inferior to the originals. "Aniron," the theme for Aragorn and Arwen performed by Enya, is incomplete and the lyrics are hard to match to what is being sung. The sound quality for this song is even worse on the accompanying DVD, which is supposed to have all of the music in "superior sound". The song "Prophecy" is reduced to two barely-audible lines and "May It Be" is shortened and different than the original. $60 for this when there are more complete songs on the original soundtrack is ridiculous.

3 out of 5 stars Great Collection, Poor Packaging.......2007-04-03

I realy can't add to what others have said about this set, the music is simply the best LOTR soundtrack collection out there! It is all here, and the contents of this set will make any LOTR fan happy and the music DVD is a great one disc addition if you want to hear the entire score in one sitting (to which I have done a number of times already).
My only complaint is the somewhat flimsy cardboard box that houses the contents of this musical treasure. Mine came damaged, and considering the price, I expected better packaging. This is a minor quabble on my part and NO, I havent returned it due to the fact that the music itself Is what I truly treasure, It just would have been nicer to have recieved it undamaged.

I first heard this albumn in high school and was thrilled to find it again. My kids love it and play it continuously. We now have new catch phrases to throw at each other. Good times, hoser!

5 out of 5 stars A classic piece of humor... great for roadtrips.......2007-01-05

Bob and Doug McKenzie do a great job on this album. The audio level wanders around a bit, so you'll have to turn the volume up and down to adjust, but it's still very enjoyable.

5 out of 5 stars You guys aren't done yet..........2006-12-01

Great album...I always wished you guys had done more. As soon as you all got famous though you split up and went off doing other things. You should have stuck with this. Abbott and Costello did maybe 20 movies, you haven't even come close to that yet. There's plenty of room for more. Your part in Brother Bear just showed how much more you could still explore these roles. Plus, it was clean and I really appreciate that. To much garbage out there nowadays. Thanks again, but you're not done yet.

5 out of 5 stars A must-have for fans........2006-11-07

Their humor isn't for everyone, granted, but fans of Canadian humor in genera will certainly enjoy the album. The characters are as enjoyable in audio format as they are visually, and it makes a great listen.

5 out of 5 stars Perfect, for what it is and when it was released.......2006-08-30

Great White never did fit the "hair band" mold. They had too much blues influence in their songs, and too much genuine melody and skillful playing. No, they are no virtuosos, but they were a great hard rock band. And listening to this disc now, I am amazed at how well the songs stand up. Put aside the production, guitar tone, overextended solos, and general "80s" vibe, and you'll see the songs are solid. If they came out today, with the exact same songs, they'd be a hit...much like Wolfmother is a hit by (admittedly) copying Zep and AC/DC. It seems there's always a place for catchy blues rock.

Things went downhill fast after this album though. The next one had one or two "hits." One of those was a cover song, and the other more or less a direct copy of "Save Your Love," a song on this album. Then, of course, they had the nightclub tragedy. Still, this album is one of the best of its type from its era.

5 out of 5 stars This is a great cd!.......2006-08-01

I never listend to Great White before but my dad said he liked them so I knew if he did then I knew I would too, and I was right. This cd is totally awesome and my favorite song on here might just be 'Lady Red Light'. This rocks all the way through and I'm planing on getting other Great White cds, my next one will probaly be Twice Shy because I heard that song on VH1 Classic and it's really good. GO OUT AND GET THIS CD!!!

5 out of 5 stars Today's problem with Great White..........2006-01-05

This and several other CD's by Great White released during the 80's are essential classics and examples of great 80's metal (Hooked, Psycho City and Shot in the Dark). Producer Alan Niven made the comment that the band didn't find its "niche" during this time, but I'm surprised at this comment. What is the band doing now in the year 2000's? A bunch of boring covers of Led Zeppelin stuff (did I mention boring)? The band needs to get away from the Tenessee hillbilly cover songs of the 1960's and get back to doing the edgy, melancholic, power melodies they did in the 80's. Songs of realism tempered with a message of hope is what they must return to. Songs with less of a sociological commentary are fine, but these days they're not even heavy rockers anymore. "Psycho City" was Great White's last great CD. "Step On You", "Lovin' Kind", "Angel Song", "Shot in the Dark", "Rock Me"... This will be what we remember from Great White. C'mon boys, go back to it or fade into obscurity.

5 out of 5 stars Once bitten...always rock.......2005-10-19

This is a great classic record for hard rock lovers. i enjoyed it a lot. Great White is a great band.

5 out of 5 stars Once Bitten, twice addicted!!.......2004-02-05

When I first heard "Rock Me" back in 1987, I knew that Great White stood above the rest.I went out and bought "Once Bitten" and after hearing it, I promptly began buying every bit of GW music I could find. This album sets the standard for blues based rock. If you don't own this disc, drop what you are doing and buy it now!! Mark Kendall's guitar work is a perfect mix of Jimmi Hendrix, Jimmy Page and his own original style. And what can you say about Jack Russell's voice? He is the man! A great album from a great band!!

Good collection! Has the long awaited b-side "Wasted Rock Ranger!" Only complaint is that it doesn't have enough songs from the album "hooked". Other wise it would be perfect!

5 out of 5 stars Best of the best of.......2006-07-08

Once upon a time, a long, long time ago in 1987 I bought the single "Once Bitten, Twice Shy" on a cassette because I couldn't wait for the album to be released. On the B side of "OBTS" was this little ditty called "Wasted Rock Ranger". Well I listened to "WRR" more than "Once Bitten". Go figure. Now, imagine my disappointment when the CD came out and it DIDN"T!! have "Wasted Rock Ranger" on it. Years & years passed and then finally one day I found a release of it on this CD. I may not have purchased this elsewise because I already own a "Best Of". Thank goodness I did buy this - it is the best of the best of Great White. I have always loved this band and then I fell in love with them again when I got this CD into my player. I love, love, love the extended version of "Face The Day". The live stuff on here really rocks too. Great White is up there in my favorite band category. Put it in and you want to listen to them all day and all night. (Peat & Reapeat, YEAH!)

4 out of 5 stars The best from the best.......2006-02-02

Great White in my mind is one of the greatest bands ever to play hard rock/heavy blues music. They are right there with the likes of Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple. Thier music, while not the most groundbreaking, was pure and filled with emotion. Anyone of the tracks on this greatest hits collection is a song that fits a mood. Once Bitten, Twice Shy puts you in that feel good mood. Songs like House of Broken Love and Mista Bone are perfect for that early morning drive through south eastern California and by the time you got into las Vegas there was songs like Rock Me and Lady Red Light. Great music for all good times

I just love this band and it really upsets me that when most people hear the name Great White, they will think of the Tragedy that killed 100. I try to forget that sad day, but for the band, that is not an option. The fact of the matter is that they should have been rock icons by 2003 and not playing death traps like that place in Rhode Island. Now, I see that people are making jokes about that day. Do people have any care for anyone?

That is not the point. This is one of the greatest bands in the last 25 years and this CD is good for starters that would like to hear something that is greatly under-rated

5 out of 5 stars Very good.......2006-01-15

The cd was purchased as a Christmas gift and I assume everything was fine with it. Your service was excellent and was received in a timely manner. Thank you

5 out of 5 stars Best Cover of all time.......2005-10-10

Suffice it to say, this cd has all of the familiar Great White stand-bys, "Once bitten twice shy, "Afterglow" (live). But what this cd has that no other cd in the world does (and I know because I've looked high and low for it), is a cover of Led Zepplin's "Babe I'm Leavin' you." Now, I know what you are thinking; "Hey, there is a version of that cover on another Great White compilation cd!" This is true. However, that version on the other compilation was performed on stage at a huge outdoor concert and the only thing that sounded worse than the band being out of time was the terrible mixing from the sound board. The version I am referring to was taped for "MTV Unplugged." I have never been a huge fan of Great White. They are a good band with a considerable amount of talent, write well, and are great musicians, but when they performed that cover on "Unplugged", they captured, in that song, the passion and intense regret and pain that Robert Plant had intended but could not convey as well. Robert Plant is a legend, an icon of rock, a master of phrasing, arranging, and not not without passion of his own and even he said when asked about the cover that he wished he could have done as good a job on that song originally!!! The price for this disc is more than worth it for just that track. Highest recommendation!!!

5 out of 5 stars 80S HARD ROCK AT IT'S BEST!.......2007-05-28

GREAT WHITE WAS ONE OF THOSE BANDS THAT BLEW ME AWAY. THIS RECORD IS BY FAR THERE BEST TO DATE AND THE MOST SUCESSFUL TOO. GREAT SONGS LIKE "HOUSE OF BROKEN LOVE" AND THE TOP 10 HIT "ONCE BITTEN TWICE SHY" MAKE THIS RECORD STAND OUT. BUT THE BEAUTIFUL BALLAD "THE ANGEL SONG" IS MY PERSONAL FAVORITE.I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS ONE TO ANY ROCK FAN!CHECK IT OUT.YOU WON'T BE DISSAPPOINTED.

3 out of 5 stars Great White highlight.......2006-08-21

Great White... 'one heavy lidded bunch of dudes' to quote one reviewer turned up, diddled about for a while and then dissipated to nothingness until tragedy made them more famous than their music ever would. And that's a sad state of affairs indeed. ... Twice Shy is from the band higher profile years when they were unfairly lumped in with the hair metal dudes, a similar fate to Tesla, and were having mild hits such as Mista Bone.

Certainly this ablum is a hybrid between 70's stoner rock and third generation Stonesy hard rock. The tone is set by the opener Move It with it's intro of truck brackes or somesuch putting you instantly on notice that this is going to be a highway cruiser of an album. And in terms of that, tunes such as Move It, Heart the Hunter, Hiway Nights and Mista bone are top notch, totally at home on the radio or jukebox of roadhouses across middle america. Dude, If I ever find myself touring the US by road I'm gonna take this album with me. It would be mandatory.

On the wider appeal front this album runs into problems. A clutch of the songs here are pretty middling stuff like The Angel Song, House of Broken Love and She Only are all pretty dire. Baby On Fire is fairly numbskull but is saved by it's carefree attitude and brisk pace. The covers are suitably chosen and attacked with fun in mind but when three of your eleven tracks are covers it's starting to get indicative of a shallow creative well. Or laziness. And when one of them is a sort of afterthought novelty track it doesn't help, even if it is genuinely amusing.

In a strange way this album has a number of cool cuts but always leaves the listener feeling as if the total is less than the sum of it's parts. It just doesn't hang together. Still, a serious driving album.

5 out of 5 stars Great White's Best Album.......2005-11-15

I've been listening to this record for about two weeks straight, after having rediscovered it. I dug out all my Great White stuff after getting the DVD of their music videos "My, My, My" which brought back so many fond memories. I was first introduced to the band with their astounding single/video "Rock Me", which was a rock/blues opus, utterly unlike anything else on the radio at the time (though today you hear vague resonances of Supertramp in it, due to the harmonica); "Rock Me" was Great White's epic, their "Stairway". I liked most of the singles from the 'first' record (_Once Bitten_), but I thought that it was very inconsistent...some songs were great ("All Over Now", "Save Your Love") and some were very derivative ("Gonna Getcha" sounds too much like AC/DC, and yes, "Never Change Heart" really does sound like Dokken). Yes, I do know now that the band had two records before _Once Bitten_, but I didn't know then. Those each have a few good songs on them ("Face the Day" is a classic).

It was with this record, though, that the band came into their own. It has their biggest selling single, the massively huge cover of Ian Hunter's "Once Bitten, Twice Shy", which is okay. That's not why I like the record. Here's a track by track breakdown of why I do:
1. Move It: Okay, so maybe the lyrics are a little dated and hokey, but this rocks and the sentiment is there..."let's get this mutha on!" Great Mark Kendall guitar solo(9/10)
2. Heart The Hunter: Dokken did something very much like this, and they did it better--"The Hunter" is one of Dokken's best songs...but this is not one of Great White's. It's not a cover, just thematically linked (6/10)
3. Hiway Nights: Funny how they mispelled the first word but not the second; I'da thought "Nites" was in order. Weird mystical meditation on driving ("To this eagle I belong"!?!?) but probably my favorite song on the record. Kendall's song is lame (and that's rare), but the relentless double-bass drum pounding never lets up (10/10)
4. The Angel Song: Thematically similar to Poison's "Fallen Angel", but much more melodic; a sad piano ballad. Also echoes The Kink's "Celluloid Heroes" slightly. Great video, cityscapes at night, though it's hard to tell that Michael Lardie is playing piano at first. Good Kendall solo (10/10)
5. Mista Bone: I didn't like this song when it first came out because it was too over the top. Now I love it. The lyrics are so unbelievably immature that you have to check them out; "innuendo" is no longer an appropriate term. Yet it really is an awesome groove, Tony Montana's bass is utterly crisp; during the verses it's like Kendall and the rhythm section are playing two different songs, but it's brilliant. (11/10)
6. Baby's On Fire: A decent, if cliched rocker, lyrics are a little boring. Reminiscent of Sammy Hagar (9/10)
7. House Of Broken Love: Yeah, man. Awesomely great total downer of a rock song, one of their best. Musically, it's actually somewhat similar to the Police's "King of Pain", but instead of the lyrics following the chords closely, Russell's voice weaves over them in his bluesy style. One problem: the intro solo is WAY too long on the album version (1:30 or so); I actually prefer the video version where it's truncated. But nevertheless (10/10)
8. She Only: Pretty, somber acoustic ballad, very dated sounding with constant arpeggios, but great sentiment and the lyrics are decent (9/10)
9. Once Bitten, Twice Shy: Can't argue with the sales figures, though this is one of my least favorite songs on the record. It's a good, solid rockin' tune (9/10)

You can tell that the success of this song transformed their style somewhat...just listen to the opening track of their next record (_Hooked_) and it's basically part II of this song. That feel carries throughout Hooked and it's kind of disappointing. Compare _...Twice Shy_'s "The Angel Song" to _Hooked_'s "Lovin' Kind"...both are piano ballads, but whereas the former is really in that dark '80s genre, the latter is an attempt to do a more mainstream rock sound...and apologies if you like it, I think "Lovin' Kind" is pretty bad: mundane, boring, bland, blah. "The Angel Song" fills up empty spaces at midnight, "Lovin' Kind" makes more sense around lunchtime. Sorry, I'm a midnight kind of guy, even in my 30s. There are a few good tracks on _Hooked_ ("Desert Moon", "Heartbreaker") but mostly it took a turn for the worst.

Great White are, as every other review says, 'unfairly' lumped in with Poison, Dokken, and so. But you have to remember that back in the day, that's how they were marketed. I think their stuff stands far beyond their peers...and I say this as someone once addicted to Dokken/Lynch Mob, I recognize George Lynch's talent for shredding and respect it greatly. But Dokken never achieved the timelessness of Great White because they were not as solid of a band; Don's voice was strident and his melodic approach stale; Jeff never hit any grinding grooves like "Mista Bone", and the band always seemed like they were about four individuals and not a unit.

Great White was a band, a band with a great singer (who yes, bears more than a passing resemblance to Robert Plant). Mark Kendall was capable enough a shredder, but on reflection, a much more interesting rhythm player than I had given him credit for. Overall the band is more musically sophisticated and bluesy than any of their contemporaries, but I hate to tell you this, and you're going to be mad: they were a Hair Band, and then with "Once Bitten, Twice Shy" they made a bid for more mainstream legitimacy, which is why I don't like most of _Hooked_. I've seen them live ('96 or so), and I've seen Dokken, and Poison. All of them have themes and approaches in common, but many stylistic differences (Poison is pure major-chord fluff, Dokken stays in minor keys with modal solos; GW is bluesy).

There were fast cars, objectification of women, cityscapes, and a lot of talk about "rockin'". There were videos with pretty girls, crazy guitar solos, excessive stage lights. That's Hair Metal or Glam as we used to call it. I was there, I know. I love all that, and I think they went wrong when they turned away from it, though they recoved a little bit on _Psycho City_. _Can't Get There From Here_ is a great rock record from them, but totally different, more like what they were going for with _Hooked_. I love Great White, their music has gotten me through some trying times. You need to see the videos to really understand this band in context.

I would also like to take the time to recommend Icon's "Right Between the Eyes" (1989, Atlantic/Megaforce) if you like this record...good luck finding a copy, though....


5 out of 5 stars The music stands out.......2005-09-14

1989 was a year of glam and all things that stand out. The only thing that stands out here is how good the songs are and the overall sound. There's blues, hard rockers and even a few songs that you'd find your parents listening to. I always felt that this band was worlds better than thier contemperies. Hiway Nights, Mista Bone and (seems classic to me) House of Broken Love are the best songs on the record, but there is not a bad track on this 9 track set. There is very few bands that had their hayday in the 80's that I find pulling out of my CD collection on a regular basis as much as Great White and this just might be their best

4 out of 5 stars This Album Rocks,.......2004-02-05

Blessings to the fans and performers that perished in the fire. God bless them and their families.

I never compared Great White to total glam bands like Poison or Warrant. These guys wore jeans and leather jackets too. GWs sound was more mature if you ask me, more piano and extended guitar riffs with arrangements that were more consistent with 70's style than the all out glam sound.

This CD is worth buying. I would compare Great White more with Tesla than Poison or Warrant. No, its not as good as the first album "once bitten". Crank "House of Broken Love" one time and you'll be captured "if you don't wanna lose your lovin' use it constantly, if theres gonna be lies, suspicious eyes, then baby, baby set me free!" This CD stands on its own no problem.

Buy it for sure.

    5 out of 5 stars Not the top 100, but..........2006-09-06

    I recently came up with my own list of what I believe are to be the greatest 100 albums in rock history. This one is probably around 101. When I bought this upon it's release in 1999, I couldn't stop listening to it. Rollin' Stoned was a great pick me up tune and the rest of the record just seemed to flow so well together. 2006... It is so hard to write a review of this album. It has great songs, great writing, great singing and great musicianship. I think what I miss on this record that always seems to be a big part of every Great White CD is that big song with the over the top bass line. (Mista Bone on Twice Shy, Hand on the Trigger on Let it Rock or Lady Red Light on Once Bitten) Gone to the dogs could have been that song here, but the band din't pull that off. Silent Night seems like a classic that has poor lyrics.

    I would have loved to included this in my top 100 albums of all time, but the few flaw that i brought up made me place it just below that. Now this is a must have for any fan of Great White, but for starters I'd go with Twice Shy, Hooked or Let it Rock

    1 out of 5 stars Doesn't make for good listening... at all.......2006-05-31

    Great White have always had 3 advantages over their 80s era contemporaries: a continued love of blues-based rock, Micheal Lardie's writing and Jack Russell's voice- one of the strongest, and most underrated in rock.

    But with the release of this album, 2 of those 3 are nowhere to be found and Russell's voice can't carry the whole load alone.

    The music is bar-room rock-by-numbers and Lardie's usual deft touch has deserted him for cringe-worthy cliche:

    "Every now and then I like to pick up the phone/ and make a call down memory lane"

    "let the world be still tonight/let the fire be the only light"

    There's no sense of irony and just a empty feeling of going through the motions with the entire album. I'm astonished to see its 5 star average and so many fans calling it the band's best work: I can only attribute this to loyalty and sentimentality following the band's troubles of several years past. If you want to hear Great White's best recent work, don't go past "Psycho City" for its balls out rock and several examples of Lardie's best power ballads, or "Great Zeppelin" for Russell's astonising vocals as the band play tribute to Led Zeppelin. But avoid this album at all costs.

    5 out of 5 stars A WELL WRITTEN AND INTELLIGENT ROCK ALBUM.......2004-06-09

    This Album is a great testimonial to the overall talent,style,and magic that GREAT WHITE brought to rock music fans all over the world. The songs are mature and well written, both musically and lyrically. I don't understand why this excellent album did not receive more support and publicity from the music industry, and from the so-called Rock Radio stations around the world. This is music that will reach into your mind, heart, and soul. I strongly encourage all Great White Fans to purchase this Album, and listen to it with an open mind. As for GREAT WHITE Band Members, I think you should restart the band with the same players that appeared on the "HOOKED" Album. I know that the Rhode Island incident will always haunt you, and cause a lot of self-doubt, but real fans of Rock&Roll music would really like to have you guys back with a new Album! Nobody in their "right mind" really blames the band members for what happened on that ill-fated night. I know that I would eagerly show up for any future "reunion" show that features the band's original players. So when-ever you can "face the day" of playing the music that only GREAT WHITE can deliver, all of your fans will be waiting! Good luck to the band members and all of their family and friends! We who love you will never forget you! If Tony Montana(Bass) and Mark Kendal(guitar) read this---"you can come back baby, 'cause Rock&Roll never forgets"!!!

    3 out of 5 stars Just didn't bring me back to the old days........2003-11-07

    I have been a huge Great White fan since I saw them live in 1990. When this album came out, I was going through some major withdrawls after the disppointment of Sail Away. I gave it a spin and yea, the opening track was that same old Great White, but the rest of the album let me down. Russell's vocals seemed strained and really showed his age. In my opinion, their last great album was Psycho City. It's a shame they're gone now, but maybe they will reform and play the great old stuff again.

    5 out of 5 stars BUY THIS ALBUM, YOU WONT REGRET IT.......2003-03-03

    I just wanted to say that I bought this album when it was first released And 3 years later i'm still listening to it. It's not getting old! It's definatly top notch, one of their best. Almost every song rocks. And the ballads are great as well.
    If you're a rock fan you won't be disapointed with this one.

    5 out of 5 stars Like no other Tribute you'll ever hear!.......2007-03-24

    Being a lifelong Zeppelin fan and fortunate enough to have seen them in the 74-75 timeframe, I think I qualify as a purist and admirer of all things Zeppelin. (past, present and future). Great White's tribute to Zeppelin blew me away! All too often I hear tribute bands change around the tune to compensate for shortcomings or make it too much about them.

    Great White did the rarity. They performed a live version of Zeppelin songs as you wish Zep did. Rather than the bloated and hard to listen to "Song Remains the Same" recording, just put this on and sit back. You won't be disappointed. I just wish the CD contained the MTV unplugged Great White rendition of "Babe, I'm gonna leave you", and a new recording of "That's The Way", then everything would be complete.

    If Jack Russell reads this. Do us Great White and Zeppelin fans a favor and do another record with more Led Zeppelin tunes.

    4 out of 5 stars why not listen to zeppelin? .......2007-01-09

    The CD is great, but as i ask my husband, "why wouldn't you just listen to Zeppelin then?" His response? You have all the great songs on one CD. He LOVES it.

    3 out of 5 stars Good Zepp Covers, But No where near Perfect........2006-10-24

    I am one of the worlds biggest Led Zeppelin Fans, I own all there CD's. My Friend burned me a copy of this and said it was almost as good as the original Zeppelin. Well, I have to say its better then any other band covering Zeppelin songs, However, Its no where near the real Zeppelin. Jack Russel deos the best job out of all the band members in capturing the Zeppelin Spirit. He even sounds somewhat simular to Plant, although Plant had much more vocal range. The Guitarist Doesnt have the all around skill that Page had, no where near. Since Ive been loving you sounds like a mess. The Drumer Just cant touch Bonham at all, and whoever is on the Keyboards needs to stop. Also they should have tried songs like Rock n Roll, Black Dog, Whole Lotta Love, or Dazed and confused, these are the songs that helped shape Zeppelin into the greatest Rock and Roll Band ever. Now for the positive stuff. They did do stairway, and its the best cover of it, its still not Zepp but its desent. I liked the way they did the rover, Russels Vocals on that song sounded a lot like Plant. So, in all this album isnt close to the Great Led Zeppelin, but they did do a pretty desent job thats why I cant give it under 3 stars. But if you want to hear the real Zeppelin get How the West was Won, the DVD, or BBC Sessions which all get 5 stars, they blow this CD away. Even The song remains the same sound track is better it deserves 4 stars. Oh I forgot to mention the Version of the Immigrant song on this CD sucks, Badly.

    5 out of 5 stars what an awesome album.......2006-09-30

    Being a fan of both Led Zep and Great White, what an awesome combination. Great White was awesome in concert too, which is the best test for a truly awesome band, without all the techno to improve their vocals and other sounds. Sorry to hear of the tragedy that Great White experienced. I hope they will make a comeback.

    4 out of 5 stars GREAT WHITE - GET THE LED OUT .......2006-06-21

    This collection from Great White is a nice listening alternative for Led Zeppelin fans. (I am one of those fans) It is rumored that when Great White first started out, they cut their teeth on Led Zeppelin songs.

    This collection rocks, there are songs performed here that Led Zeppelin very rarely performed live, to the best of my recollection. Those songs are: IN THE LIGHT, LIVING LOVING MAID, RAMBLE ON, TANGERINE, THE ROVER, WHEN THE LEVEE BREAKS.
    I saw Zep perform in '77 and the first Page/Plant tour.

    Great White performs 14 Zeppelin songs and sticks essentially to the studio versions. No extended jams, just basic rockin Zep. Jack Russell does a great job on vocals, very Robert Plant
    like in most cases, on some songs, he is tremendous - In The Light, Ramble On, No Quarter, Going To California, Immigrant Song. The bands' music is on the mark.

    If there wasn't commentary between songs, play Ramble On, Immigrant Song, Going To California, to Zep fans and see if they can detect the difference, I could not hear a difference from the real thing.

    It takes a lot of moxy to perform Stairway, and it is the final song on the CD. The songs that I didn't think hit the mark were D'yer Maker and All My Love. But 12 out of 14 are great recordings. This is the best Zep tribute CD I have heard, bar none. Purists may not like this, but this CD is a good addition to your Led Zeppelin collection. There is a Whole Lotta Led here.

    This is by far one of GW's best in my book. I've been a fan of GW since 1984, when the Black album came out and have been a fan ever since. I was totally amazed when Shot in the Dark came out. I was in the music store the day it was released and played the tape so much it skreeched. With songs like Shot in the Dark and Face the Day, it shows where the roots of Once Bitten, Twice Shy, Hooked and Psyco City stem from. If your a serious GW fan, you have to have this cd in you collection. With all this said you have to include the ballads Waiting for love and Runaway. Slower songs yes but what an edge they display. One of the 80's best recordings if you ask me. GET IT !

    5 out of 5 stars A phenomenal early release.......2006-07-02

    This CD is as mature and complete an album a young band can produce. The songs range from mellow to outright ballsy, and i agree that "Shot in the Dark" should be on the Greatest Hits collections. It truly is a great tune!

    4 out of 5 stars Four and a half stars..........2005-11-15

    Until recently, I only remembered having seen the front cover of this album in the mid eighties. One of my neighbours friends had it and he was a guitar player, as well. I just heard it a few months ago and now I've ordered the remaster (well worthwhile, especially from Japan, awesome sound). This is likely the most underrated and ignored CD's from Great White. It doesn't have as much bluesy flavoured tracks like "Twice Shy" or "Psycho City", but it has some of the best eighties pop rock you'll find. I count four tracks, the first two and the standouts "Shot in the Dark" and "Runaway" that make this exceptional. I can't understand how songs like "Save Your Love" or "Face the Day" (which is on this CD, even) and others are selected to the bands myriad of Greatest Hits collections and yet the song "Shot in the Dark" is overlooked. Let's put it this way, it's a simple opening riff, but it sounds great and the song, overall, is on the same level as "Rock Me".
