I've seen recent discussion here on this band, so here's a thread just for WC talk! Fave albums and songs? Talk about a Ratt clone band! headbanger

But they did it very well indeed! WHITECROSS 604261

Yes, great band. Just today i was playing HAMMER&NAIL album, and their mini lp LOVE ON THE LINE, both on vinyl. Still i think that their debut is the best release by the band.

The first WC song that I heard was Shakedown. I went out and got Triumphant Return shortly there after. I know a lot of people hate on In The Kingdom, but I've always really enjoyed that album. Even the corny Holy War song with the rap verses. LOL! Those lines are pretty cheesy.

I really like the re-recorded debut, now titled "1987". headbanger

The debut is the only one I think has held up well.

I liked the debut, love on the line and hammer & the nail. Triumphant return started to lose me, totally lost me by in the kingdom

My good friend Jason had a college radio program called Reality Rock and I remember hearing "enough is enough" on his show late one night. I always checked them out when either I did sound or played at a festival with them back in the day.

I started to lose interest after ITK, but they were awesome up through that album!

I know it sounds strange but my favorite Whitecross album has always been the first one I ever bought, One More Encore. My favorite song from them is Living In A Lost World.

Great song! What's the tracklisting for that album?

You know, I've always been a big fan of Unveiled. It's nothing like the WC of old, but it's a hard rockin' album. I love Come Unto the Light and King of Angels.

Unveiled 7/10 It was OK.

I lived up there at the time and didn't get to go see them on that tour. I was majorly bummed, to say the least!

I like most of their stuff.My favorites would be the debut and Triumphant Return.There were some good songs on In the Kingdom,I just kinda got burned out on them at that point because I saw them live like 3-4 times that year.

The re-recorded '1987' is fantastic.

I had a two song demo before the first album came out in 1987. It featured 'He is The Rock', 'Looking For A Reason' and Rex's guitar solo 'Nagasake'.

I followed up through 'Triumphant Return'. Sorta lost interest with 'In The Kingdom'...

I saw 'em in concert 4-5x's I guess.

Happy

I sure wish this band would tour again. I thought they were supposed to record a new album based on the proceeds of "1987"?

It's a live abum (though it doesn't sound it) of mostly the post Rex stuff. It does have a killer remake of No Second Chances though.

I saw them in the Hampton Roads area at a small place - I can't remember where exactly, but it was a cool show!

I still want to get all their stuff after Rex left. I really enjoy their earlier stuff and am interested to hear what they became.
