Jamie Law, the Australian guitarist, surprisingly handled the guitar section very well. Tramp's voice still sounded the same, even though sometimes it felt like he didn't want (or unable) to reach the high note anymore. In this double-discs release, Tramp's White Lion brings back the classic tunes from their four official albums with a crystal clear sound production which has been carefully mixed by Michael Wagener. Rocking The USA" was recorded live in Mar-Feb 2005, when the resurrected White Lion with the new line-up toured with Enuff Z'Nuff across America. Prefomance at the 2005 Bang Your Head Festival in Germany.After all ,this album is not at all as bad as some people are saying about it!In fact,on this album there are excellent versions,different versions, of some of the most famous WL songs!And,when I say it's different,believe me,it really is!Tramp's voice is excellent,as usual,and the guys behind are doing an excellent job!We,the true WL fans,we certainly have in our mind the original versions of the songs,but for open minded WL fans,this album is a sort of BEST OF,or classic WL songs revisited!I really like the manner how a song,no matter which one ,can have many aspects and how a clever and adventurous vision can give to a song a new charm and identity!And I think,I strongly think that Tramp is a wizzard in the way how he managed to,practically,change the identity of some of the most famous WL songs-but,definitelly-in a right direction!So,pay attention to an unknown album and you'll discover thet WHITE LION songs are unforgetable and a good song,will always be a good song!An xcellent idea and strong 4 stars for a beautiful album loaded with excellent compositions of one of the most important American glam metal bands in the 80's and 90's.!
