To mark its 30th anniversary live on March 22, 2012, GREAT WHITEcelebrated the only logical way — on stage. In a nod to its early days,GREAT WHITE returned to the infamous Sunset Strip, where a storied past of music's biggest fans are fused into the walls of the Key Club.GREAT WHITE delivered its entire repertoire to a packed house, pining for the band's raw energy and cheering its illustrious history track after track.

The Southern California blues hard rock band debuted with a Don Dokken/Michael Wagener-produced EP in 1983 and later on were signed by EMI for 1984's self-titled debut album. Since then GREAT WHITE has achieved worldwide success, encompassing sales of over six million records. They received a Grammy nomination for "Best Hard Rock Performance" for the song "Once Bitten, Twice Shy" and earned a double platinum certification for the album "…Twice Shy".

It's the soulful, blues-based signature sound that turned songs like "Face The Day", "Rock Me" and "Save Your Love" into international hits. The late '80s were boom years for the band, marked by non-stop touring with some of the biggest bands of the era, including stints in Europe and Japan.GREAT WHITE recorded two more albums for Capitol — "Hooked", which was certified gold, and "Psycho City".

GREAT WHITE - 30 Years: Live From The Sunset Strip (2013)

I bet guitarist Mark Kendall never dreamed, back in 1983, when Don Dokken & Michael Wagener produced GREAT WHITE's first recording, that his band went on to become one of the most successful acts from the Californian Sunset Strip area.
For 3 decades Great White plodded along with their hair metal meets blues formula, releasing quality albums regardless of the current commercial trends, and celebrated by going 'home' to play a show at Hollywood's Key Club.
The result is "30 Years; Live From The Sunset Strip", a recording with a real feel-good vibe and emotion.

After receiving energizing shock treatments with 'Elation' last year, their first album to feature new singer Terry Ilous, the band is on a mission to capture hearts and groins once again, this time with an inspiring live release.
Chunky riffs and catchy rhythms spark life in a handful of favourites, thus proving durability of the bands material. The end result is absolutely heart-warming, even though the set itself holds little surprises.
Still, no grudges will be held, especially since the album shows the band in respectable form, enjoying their music to the full: Great White are a praiseworthy live band.

Ilous stands proud in his vocal duties and there are enough times you think you're listening to original singer Jack Russell himself.
Even the most die hard Russell fan will have to admit that Terry Ilous holds most of the cards in this affair - former XYZ singer does a great job tackling all the heavyweights, delivering them with a bellyful of fire and emotion.
And yes, with a voice filled with character and charisma, Terry settles down like a duck to water on numbers like “Rock Me” or the driving opener “Desert Moon”. To avoid any dilemma, it is safe to say that Great White’s anthems get a fitting facelift with Ilous on board.

"30 Years; Live From The Sunset Strip" has a true live feeling, almost overdub-free to preserve Great White's hot stage sound.
A much welcomed testament of Great White revving the motor and laying down the rubber in a fashion that will hearten long time fans.

01 - Desert Moon
02 - Lady Red Light
03 - Face The Day
04 - House Of Broken Love
05 - Save Your Love
06 - Mista Bone
07 - The Big Goodbye
08 - Back To The Rhythm
09 - Rock Me
10 - Can’t Shake It
11 - Once Bitten Twice Shy
