I'd put Vito in my top 3 of guitar players in his genre. Unbelievable tone. So clean.

Vito was an amazingly talented guitar player. His solos so tasteful and his sound was so crisp and warm.

My son asked me the other day what bands I wish I could see. Skid Row with Sebastian Bach and White Lion with Vito Bratta where my top 2 answers.

I believe the part about the label rep telling Vito, “Do you know what your problem is? You play too good. You need to start playing sloppy, because that’s what kids are into these days.” This was exactly what I felt about the grunge movement. I like Vito’s response with, “You want me to suck?” 😂 They didn’t lie about Vito being too good though. 🎸🤘🏼👍

I saw them open for someone...maybe Lynch Mob or Don Dokken's solo act. There was a hottie right up against the fence in front of stage. She apparently had a thing for the singer, 'cause when White Lion took the stage, she pull her panties off right out from her mini skirt and threw it at him. He panties actually hit the singer square in the chest, but he acted like he didn't notice and they started their first song. I was 18 years old. I can remember that scene like it was yesterday.

WL could make a ton of money if they’d reunite. Bratta is a legend among guitarists.

James Lomenzo is a road dog. He's out with Megadeth currently but has been a touring member of so many bands. Really underrated.

I am continually impressed with the content on this channel. White Lion were unfairly lumped in with many of the "glam metal" trends of the time; the band had far more depth than many of those groups, as you stated. Vito Bratta in particular is a ridiculously talented musician. There was a recent interview in Guitar World where he claims that he had auditioned for both Ozzy Osbourne and Kiss prior to joining White Lion, which isn't surprising.

So much you don't know. By the way the song is called Little Fighter. Not War Fighter.

Vito has set himself up perfectly to essentially print himself money if he ever wanted to start playing guitar again in public. This man cannot play a bad sounding note on the guitar if he tried.  And the rhythm section probably was the best in the industry in the late 80's-- White lion has a ton or European demos on Spotify of basically all of their old stuff and the band was a lot tighter than people imagine. As a band they were certainly better musicians than most anyone else in that scene in the 80's and that says a lot. Really a rock band in a hair metal scene.

White Lion became famous in the Phillipines for hit ballads "YOU'RE ALL I NEED" and "TILL DEATH DO US PART" both from Maine Attraction album.. both songs are hits in the Phillipines and still receive airplays...

I loved them so much in high school. Still love much of their music, especially "Wait" and "Lights and Thunder."

I had a poster of Vito on my wall when I was a kid growing up in Mangalore, India where access to good music in the 80's was heavily relied on people returning from abroad and old copies of guitar world magazine that made rounds from house to house . miss those days and seriously miss Vito's flawless guitar work.
