Let me just say how much of a Great White fan i am. While many people say that Whitesnake was the 80's incarnation of Led Zeppelin, i disagree and say that Great White was Zeppelin reincarnated with great blues based rock that still holds up till this day. It is unfair to call them a hair band because they were part of putting Southern California rock on the map. Led by the awesome vocals of Jack Russell, truly one great vocalist who mixes Robert Plant's falsetto with Ian Gillinas's powerhouse delivery just perfect. Not to mention a great back up band that includes Mark Kendall on guitar, Michael Lardie on piano, and Audie Desbrow on drums. They still rock to this day. This collection is packed with hard hitting anthems " Step On You", "Big Goodbye", a redone version of "Face the Day" , and the classic "Once Bitten, Twice Shy". Also, contains the great ballads such as " House of Broken Love", "Afterglow", "Rock Me", and "Save all your Love". A great compilation from start to finish, and truly one hell of a band. This is one shark that packs one hell of a bite.

The beauty of this album is that it isn't "Once Bitten Twice Shy" from beginning to end. In fact, OBTS is my LEAST favorite on the album, which is saying a lot since I do like the song. This album showcases the Great White that radio didn't or won't play. If you like hard rock ballads and flat-out hard rockers, all with more than a hint of blues, then you will love this album. "Rock Me" in itself is worth the price. Seriously. This was my first GW album, purchased in 1993, and I have since bought all of their others. This is a great intro, but be prepared to buy other GW after you give this album a listen. Listening hint: When playing "Rock Me" and "Face the Day", TURN IT UP!

4.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly solid album, March 22, 2000

I bought this CD from Columbia House for $.99 after putting off purchasing it for a while due to uncertainty. I only knew a couple of the songs on this album before I got it, but I was pleasantly surprised at how good every song is. In particular, tracks 1 through 6 are great--the album kicks off with the high-energy of "Step On You" and doesn't slow down until the mellow closing track, "Afterglow." This album rocks with attitude. A great effort for those of us who are big fans of 80's heavy metal. My only complaint, like others before me, is the omission (?) of "The Angel Song" from the album Twice Shy.
