Mike Tramp on He & Vito Bratta Being Accused of Not Sharing the Songwriting in White Lion, Interview 

Love White Lion and their music always and forever Mike Tramp and Vito Bratta made Awesome writing partners miss White Lion and guys forever love their music

My husband was the Tour manager in 2007...He loves Mike

Vito is an absolute beast of a guitar player. He has always been one of my favorite musicians.

I wish RU-vid would stop jacking up their ad’s sound volume relative to the content. Really annoying.

The "Wait" solo is probably one of the greatest guitar solo's ever. I put it up there with Edward's "Beat It" solo.

Saw them open for Ozzy in '89 or '90 at Red Rocks. It was raining, and Mike Tramp came out prancing around in his spandex and slipped and fell on his ass. The crowd was brutal, man. Chanted 'OZZY' through their entire set.

Fight to survive is underrated. I actually have it on vinyl the imported copy. Love the last statement Tramp made. So true

I bought their cassett in 86' probably, loved the music. Never knew about the original

This is one of two hair bands I liked.. every guitarists in the 80s had the same sound except white Lion and bullet boys..the lead guitar on waiting gives me goosebumps

Thanks again

Excellent !! ✌️

🤘

There are a ton of great musicians who couldn't write a decent song to save their own lives. Often while they are out partying or whatever, the writers are home tearing their hair out to bring a song into existence. When that song is brought to the band the other members might write their own part but they are not the songwriters any more than studio musicians like Hal Blaine or Carol Kaye (who got zero songwriting credit though their parts might be major hit making hooks). Riding on the bus is different than driving the bus.

i wasn't really into w.l. back then. i liked the hits but they were too lite for me at the time. however only recently i heard w.l. demos and they're much heavier and it changed my whole perspective on them. "if my mine is evil" is the heaviest song they're done. ahh what could have been...

Fight To Survive - was wonderfully unusual at the the time. Wish I had seen them in concert - but no. Never happened.

I wonder If Mike still in contact with Vito, Are they still friends ?

I never knew Mike (Danish?) had such a strong accent, after all these years, lol.

This is my safe space. What are you doing here? 😎

"30 years later, where are their songs?", Umm isn't that the point of the other band members though?

mike tramp stole billy squiers girlfriend and married her billy wrote song about it called love is a 4 letter word

Did Mike Tramp have a stroke or something? He sounds like Mary Jo Buttafucco

I don't know who has the dorkiest Danish accent. Mike or Lars?

Never liked them, light rock 😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂

One of the wussiest of all the 80's bands. Crap like White Lion is what made it so easy for alternative rock to take over.

Hey full Bloom, how about Reign in Blood engineer, Andy Wallace?
