One of a handful of respected virtuoso's! I wish he would do a shredder tour like Steve Vai, Satriani it would be so awesome just to see him doing his thing again
It's sad that one of the great guitarist Vito Bratta left music. Such a great talent. I love his tapping technique and melodic solo. He inspires me to pick and play guitar.
This is a song called Blue Monday from White Lion's Mane Attraction album. But that solo Vito plays from about the 4:15 mark is not on the album. Sounds amazing... great guitar playing by Vito.
Man this brought me to tears😭 such an awesome player ...I freaking love Vito Bratta ❤️🎶🎸🔥 I wish there was a way I could download this to my phone 😔🤦🏻♀️ it touches my soul 🎧🎚️
@Victor Sage could be but remember Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin, Ritchie Blackmore of Deep Purple was before Gary Moore even he was influenced by them and Peter Green I love Gary Moore he was a true master in guitar ...by the way Vito Bratta for me he is the New Eddie Van Halen
These days, anything with Vito on it is worth listening to. What a player he was and there isn't nowhere near enough documented anywhere. Cheers, that was awesome!
Back then you had to be original sound,style,technique etc Vito had that in spades ! The progression in his playing just kept getting better as time went on and Not only is he a great guitar player but he seems like a real humble guy as well
Was a huge fan of Vito back when I heard Pride for the first time. When Mane Attraction came out, I was like "oh.. so Vito pretty much went into the studio said.. I'll take over from here"...When I heard this, I was like wow, I know this is a tribute for SRV but man this has a lot of Gary Moore in it..
I saw Gary Moore open up for the Scorpions back in the day, 16th row, center floor, he's playing, everyone is just milling about, I don't think the lights were even all the way down, and he's just up there shredding! So I stood up, started pointing at him, I recognize talent..Gonna listen to it right now!
You're not alone....I could cry listening to all his solos.....touches your heart and soul ... more than 30 yers on. I love it when it's on video where I could see him playing and moving his fingers...so mesmerizing.
Vitto typcally was a melodic guitarist not a shredder... That' s why he could make the guitar sang and cried... One of the most underated guitarist in the world... None can be like him... Unfortunatelly he gave up in playing music... It is So sad... We miss you VB...
Back then, I remember being told to put elongated “feel based solos” into live performances to give people a chance to get beer. It’s the people that went to get beer that later and still say, “less is more”. That’s when I understood music consumers.
The only other guitarists I've ever heard capable of making a guitar cry like this are Jimi Hendrix, Carlos Santana, Randy Rhoads, B.B. King and SRV himself. He's in my top 5.
Vito Bratta Is One of Kind... Very Unique and Special... There is no one guitarist want to take his place if Mike Tramp want to resemble or Re Group or reunited White Lion... His melodic approach very different from other guitarist... We can see through all his solos... His Untouchable as far as i'm concern....
di antara banyak pemain guitar dunia ,vitto bratta lah sang legendaris.banyak lagu lagu white lion guitar solo nya yg sangat atrraktif dan enak di dengar.
even though he used to be aligned with Paul Gilbert and Steve Vai, unfortunately he was injured and accompanied his parents who were so sick that they never appeared again during his heyday
Vito replaced EVH as my favorite guitarist when I heard White Lion in 1988. And I was a die hard VH fan. Never bothered to get into Rhoads (Until the Tribute album came out), Hendrix, Blackmore, Page, Clapton or any of the other "guitar gods". To me, it was Eddie or nothing. Yeah I liked others like Brad Gillis, Satch and Vai, but Vito took 1st place from Eddie.
Vito does not get nor did he get the "guitar god" treatment that others had gotten, like Jimi, Eddie or BB but he should've, he didn't have the EVH solos on WL tracks but I guess that wasn't their style, don't know, but he's better than what he got recognized for, please return
Don’t get me wrong Vito is one of my favorites but his vibrato can sound a little warbly at times , I don’t get it because he so solid everywhere else ..
Bratta is the best. Loved that he put melody first and foremost. The guy’s a legend and probably doesn’t even know it.
Vito often gave me goose bumps, he gave me more emotion than any other musician.
One of a handful of respected virtuoso's! I wish he would do a shredder tour like Steve Vai, Satriani it would be so awesome just to see him doing his thing again
1000%
It's sad that one of the great guitarist Vito Bratta left music. Such a great talent. I love his tapping technique and melodic solo. He inspires me to pick and play guitar.
This guy should have never stopped playing
The guitar is crying. And me too. Vito you are great.
This is a song called Blue Monday from White Lion's Mane Attraction album. But that solo Vito plays from about the 4:15 mark is not on the album. Sounds amazing... great guitar playing by Vito.
Man this brought me to tears😭 such an awesome player ...I freaking love Vito Bratta ❤️🎶🎸🔥 I wish there was a way I could download this to my phone 😔🤦🏻♀️ it touches my soul 🎧🎚️
Exactly how I feel. ...brought me to tears. Love Vito and his music. ❤️
Where would we be without you tube?
That Song called "Blue Monday" He wrote it tribute to SRV..... in Mane Attraction Album 1991
Even he was quoted as saying it sounded nothing like SRV.
@@garrettcarroll5808 this version reminds me of classic Richie Blackmore
Lars Levin Berget Some Zeppelin in there too
@Victor Sage could be but remember Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin, Ritchie Blackmore of Deep Purple was before Gary Moore even he was influenced by them and Peter Green I love Gary Moore he was a true master in guitar ...by the way Vito Bratta for me he is the New Eddie Van Halen
Vito is vito. No one like him. He played in unique style. Just listen whole white lion album.... You'll be shut to think another
The most remembered and favorite track/solo from the Mane Attraction album. The bluesy in this... chills me to my spine!
These days, anything with Vito on it is worth listening to. What a player he was and there isn't nowhere near enough documented anywhere. Cheers, that was awesome!
Vito is on my Top 5 of Hard Rock, along with Nuno Bettencourt, Paul Gilbert, Eddie Van Halen and Richie Kotzen.
you had me except for paul gilbert not a fan the others are my same faves rock on mate
Goerge,Does any body know him??Can't leave him out can we....
@@robgen06 just because you arent a fan doesnt mean you shouldnt recognize his talent. im not a fan of richie kotzen but i recognize his talent.
Back then you had to be original sound,style,technique etc Vito had that in spades ! The progression in his playing just kept getting better as time went on and Not only is he a great guitar player but he seems like a real humble guy as well
Yes, George Lynch from Dokken. 👍
Jesus Christ this is a tasty jam. I remember listening to Mane Attraction and Big Game over and over in the early 90s. Vito is criminally underrated.
So sad that he quit playing so early..but his work will live forever
Was a huge fan of Vito back when I heard Pride for the first time. When Mane Attraction came out, I was like "oh.. so Vito pretty much went into the studio said.. I'll take over from here"...When I heard this, I was like wow, I know this is a tribute for SRV but man this has a lot of Gary Moore in it..
The Song was only on CD was not present on LP
Exactly!!
I saw Gary Moore open up for the Scorpions back in the day, 16th row, center floor, he's playing, everyone is just milling about, I don't think the lights were even all the way down, and he's just up there shredding! So I stood up, started pointing at him, I recognize talent..Gonna listen to it right now!
@@chrisp.9172 One comment had a top 5 list;G.Moore HAS to be on that list.EVH,P.Gilbert,Satch,Nuno.Bratta&YJM honorable mentions.
Vito bratta is legend
One of a underrated guiter player ever,such cool awesome style he had,great band overall.
His imagination , heart and finger is magic. The most melodic and tastefull gutarist.
Wish there was a live video of this show.
No kidding.
You can't go wrong, when Italian blood runs into your veins. Vito is another genius 🇮🇹
The human race blood runs thick brother. No matter what name you wanna call it! He's awesome no doubt!
@@zancraft7865 Very philanthropic comment, but at the end of the day, he is still of Italian origins, whether you like it or not.
I want to cry......
great musician
Love Vito playing his guitar..thats why white lion being a Lion..
♥️ Miss U Vitto..
Yeah thats right. We all miss vito very much
Walked away on top!!!...🤙😎🤘

VITTO IS. LEGEND B,,,,, HE'S SOLO ALWAYS BORN FROM THE FEELING & SKILLFULL
I wanted to cry! Such talented guitarist and shortlived with this insane melodic solos.
You're not alone....I could cry listening to all his solos.....touches your heart and soul ...
more than 30 yers on. I love it when it's on video where I could see him playing and moving his fingers...so mesmerizing.
Vitto typcally was a melodic guitarist not a shredder...

One of the most underated guitarist in the world...
None can be like him...
Unfortunatelly he gave up in playing music...
It is So sad...
We miss you VB...
💯 AGREE. Sad he just stopped playing....in all white lion songs, my favorite parts are his solo. ❤️ I just so love Vito!!!
Such an underrated guitarist....
Getting to hear that was awesome. Thank you for posting it. Really made my night 🌃
I'd love to hear more of that show
Vito... my live
Super !!!
Wow..! White Lion kicks RocknAss!! Vito, Mr. Amazing. Im serious.

Don't forget about Gary Moore!!!
@@chrisp.9172 Right, my bad.
enak bgt di dengerin...jd ingat masa kuliah dl.
Need a video for this show of master guitar vito
Not only is he better than Eddie but he's a unassuming & rather meek guy. He's from my neighborhood in staten island. Mellow guy. Grade A Person 👌👍
Near a cemetery and a zoo?
Nuno n slash love him so much
did not know that
You know why because he one of the greater player in the world The New Eddie Van Halen by the way
Vito!Vito!Vito!!!🤘😆🤘
Vito Bratta Is One of Kind... Very Unique and Special... There is no one guitarist want to take his place if Mike Tramp want to resemble or Re Group or reunited White Lion...

Such an under rated guitarist he is awesome wish he would come out with something
Vito is a legend. I love his style. Too bad he has to quit.
Come back Vitto!
di antara banyak pemain guitar dunia ,vitto bratta lah sang legendaris.banyak lagu lagu white lion guitar solo nya yg sangat atrraktif dan enak di dengar.
so deep
Grande Vitto
my Fav Guitar Player...>>>
even though he used to be aligned with Paul Gilbert and Steve Vai, unfortunately he was injured and accompanied his parents who were so sick that they never appeared again during his heyday
If you’re a fan of both like me, you can here some similarities. Tin Pan Alley meets Parisienne Walkways meets Vito Bratta.
Good
🎶💕
Vito is rock guitar's best kept secret
He's on a league of his own! His melodic playing touches your very core. Wish he comes back to play again.
If someone could please have him on a pod cast Jo.
Idol vito
Too bad he quit. He was like Eddie Van Halen and Yngwie Malmsteen rolled into one!!!
I’ve heard this song was dedicated to S.R.V, but I feel a lot of Ritchie Blackmore in here
Also some “for the love of god” Steve Vai and “since I’ve been loving you” zeppelin.
It’s sound harder than another version in “Mane Attraction” but I appreciate both.
Melodinya mcm rock melayu
Vito replaced EVH as my favorite guitarist when I heard White Lion in 1988. And I was a die hard VH fan.

Long live legend Vito bratta ,dan sayapun mengcover blue Monday ini walaupun tidak mirip ruclips.net/video/9mL_pAmPh9Q/видео.html

Don’t get me wrong Vito is one of my favorites but his vibrato can sound a little warbly at times , I don’t get it because he so solid everywhere else ..
his tapping i believe was the best this was echoed by zakk wylde
Gary moore music
blues いいですねー😊
does anybody know why vito quit playing?
dolphinzrwj1 He said in an interview, family health problems and hurt one of his hands. Felt something pop and couldn’t play anymore.
That's really too bad!!!!
His melodic phrasing was unique.
This is not a jam, Vito wrote this piece, it's Blue Monday so how could it be a jam?
It'sYe BoiJosh what did you say??
Of course Vito playing on WL concert
You should watch this untill this song end
He kicks into his jam session part at about the 4:14 mark of this video. :-)
dedicated to rey vaughan
nice tone definitely hear Gary Moore in there
I'm not sure Eddie Van Halen was even this good
Eddie couldn't hold a candlestick to Bratta, this guy was genius.
LOL.
Vito said Eddie was a big inspiration and took some of his techniques and worked them into his style of playing
@Bhaskar Yadav Let's see it
@Danman2000 why you have to compare I love both but Eddie Van Halen was before Vito Bratta and I know he was heavy influenced by Eddie
He's almost as good as the guitar master Neil Young. I heard a documentary saying when Neil mastered the guitar, I busted out laughing!
Too much shred for blues.
This is a minor blues
So typical - plays great when playing as fast as lightening. But slow him down and note selection, phrasing and vibrato go out the window.
Not sure what track you’re referring to but it can’t be this one
