White Lion--Mane Attraction

White Lion--Mane Attraction (1991) Rating--7.1

More slow/mid-tempo tracks here than on the previous, but the riffs are still around. A good buy for the strong fan, and it can usually be found in the cheap bins.
"Leave Me Alone" is the top groover on the disc, with sass dripping everywhere, and a ripping solo.
"Lights and Thunder," "Warsong," "She's Got Everything," and "Out With the Boys" all have their riff-rocking moments. Also, this release features a remake of their own song "Broken Heart" off of their debut; a good single.
Somewhat overlooked is the bluesy tribute to Steve Ray Vaughn, "Blue Monday," which is a nice instrumental piece in the "Little Wing" vein.
Overall this is a decent release, but the songs aren't as cohesive as before, and a number of the riffs seem to be for show rather than as part of the big picture. Again, good for the strong fan, or for the disciple of the guitar.
TRACK LIST: Lights and Thunder/Broken Heart/Leave Me Alone/Love Don't Come Easy/You're All I Need/It's Over/Warsong/ She's Got Everything/Till Death Do Us Part/Out With the Boys/Blue Monday/Farewell to You
