Vito's playing always on another level. He understood being able to compose heaviness, melody and technical brilliance with emotion. Not everything had to be about shredding but each note needed to mean something, have a sense of feeling to it. This solo always brings emotion from me as it's encouraging, hopeful, calls to the heart and tells a story of battling for goodness in the world. That's what I hear every time I listen to it. I never get tired of it and it doesn't drag on nor meander or become gratuitous. It is in all sense of the word, perfect.

I’m just discovering this solo somehow. They play hair nation on satellite radio at my work occasionally (which I love compared to all the other stations they play) and have heard this a few times but it took me some work to figure out who the band was and what song it was. I had heard of Vito before but hadn’t listened to too much of him yet.. But getting to the point.. This is a perfect solo! Melodic with the perfect amount of shred. I must learn it!

Wonder why he quit
@ivanboesky1520
@ivanboesky1520 3 ай бұрын
He quit because his dad had an illness in the mid 1990’s that required a lot of hands on care and he wanted to be there to help the family. Tour and recording would have made that impossible. Then In 1997, he injured his left wrist and that made making the moves up and then the guitar neck very painful. Guy was absolutely one of the dry best rock guitarists of the 1980’s and early 1990’s.

I did the same thing for Christmas. I bought WhiteSnake's Slip of the Tongue, and White Lion's Big Game for my roommate, and his girlfriend. They both tussled for the WhiteSnake, and my roommate came out on top, and his girl got that dejected little sad face of hers. But I told her to give the White Lion a twirl. Told her there were a few surprises she had in store to listen for. This song was one of them! She loved her music. She saw Stevie Ray Vaughan in concert shortly before he left this world.

As a 63 YO, sit at home guitar player, I’m happy to have finally sat down and figured all the notes and chords (not the solo though!) for this great song. I can only play it at about 25% of the speed he did and can’t play more than 5 or 6 of them without a mistake yet. Another few years, I might get very close! This is why I still listen to Vito Bratta and Nuno Bettencourt every day. Both victims of huge talent but bad timing. Still listening in 2024 and hopefully many more years!

Then I was once again kind of forgot about it for years, only for it to come back to mind again recently. Rediscovering old favourite songs is like catching up with an old friend in many ways. I remembered every word and every note. Now it's permanently on my favourites playlist where it belongs.

I discovered WL in 1985-86 and listen to them everyday for years until around 1992 as I grew up from just listening to music. Playing guitar since 1985 I never learned any WL songs or riffs as I never thought I was good enough to even try. Now looking back my playing is much the same and so influenced by Vito as his voicing note choices were like evh but with his own choice of notes which I absorbed heavily. Thank you Vito and EVH KINGS!!!!

Gotta say, I used to mock this song in high school and now that I listen to it again I’m sad I missed all the cool things going on in this tune. The pre chorus is cool, the bass players note and rhythmic choice descending during the chorus is unusually and yet so subtle so you almost miss how neat it is. The vocal part part on the bridge before the solo is really cool and I didn’t realize what a beast Vito was on that solo. Post solo breakdown adds to the great arrangement. Sad I didn’t appreciate this song when I was young.

Now listening again properly... holy shit, these tubes kick ass, catchy as hell and the musicality is 10/10, holy fuck vitto rips, the little fills and melodic lines in his rhythm playing are so one of a kind!

.This song really hits home with me. I was a incubator baby because I weighed 4 lbs 6 oz, and was not eating. I also had a very rare condition called Russell Silver Syndrome which my body grew bigger on the left side than the right. When I was diagnosed with this, I was one of fifty in the whole United States that doctors knew had it. I'm 61 now and been through so many accidents and suicide attempts and over 30 medical conditions that I am really the ultimate LITTLE FIGHTER. Thank you White Lion.

Vito was the very best original Ed derivative, of which there were levels and levels. NO crime in any of it. Ed re-worked how the instrument was played and presented. I could not state Vito's prowess with more respect. I know that sounds phony, but it's not. I imagine a few ridiculously talented musicians emulated Mozart. Vito did this beautifully and with great style. Vito was gorgeous in his own regard. Beautiful playing from the first I heard from him. Loved his music.

As far as being in the charts, “Wait” and “When the Children Cry” seemed to be the bigger performing songs from White Lion, but I thought this one should have been a mega-hit. They had a few years of success, but I think it this song got some traction, and tastes weren’t changing at the end of the decade - these guys could have been producing music and pleasing crowds for 10-15 years. I wish them all the best.
