Mandy Lion's WW III - Love you to death (1990)

Who remembers this band? Brilliant track # 2 from their self-titled CD released in 1990. Tracy G. (guitar) [former Dio] Jimmy Bain (bass) [former Dio, Rainbow] Vinny Appicce (drums) [former Dio, Black Sabbath] & Mandy Lion (vocals) Original drummer T.C. a.k.a. (Thomas Comforte) apparently wrote the lick! Tracy and T.C. were band mates a long time! I heard original demos with T.C. on drums and a lot of kick ass guitar from Mr. Grejalva!

 Mandy Lion's voice is far more distinctive than his Ian Astbury clone look. Powerful band with some goofy tongue in cheek lyrics. Check out The Harder They Come The Harder I Get off this same CD.

Quoted on Mandy Lion's youtube site;

 "...There is NO DOUBT that Chet was a superior player compared to Tracy. In fact... I had to drop my entire catalog which was written with Chet because Tracy was not able to play the songs. Chet got into WWIII because he was superb. Tracy got into WWIII because he was my friend. Tracy is a good but limited player who does very well within his limited reach Chet is a virtuoso who can do everything that can be done on 6 strings...".
