Guitar World recently sat down for a rare, exclusive interview with Vito Bratta, whose electric guitar heroics with White Lion in the '80s made him a legend, for a chat about the guitarists who shaped his sound.
One of the names that came up in the discussion was Eddie Van Halen, to whom Bratta was often – in less than favorable terms – compared in his early days. As annoying as they were to the White Lion guitarist at the time, however, those comparisons did end up making the one in-person meeting he had with Van Halen a rather cathartic one.
