Which of these two cover versions do you like better:

Helter Skelter

Went for the sass... Great White.

Helter Skelter

Helter Skelter here too. Great pumped up, rockin' version of the Beatles track.


I love Great White and while I think that cover is FAR better than the original, it is so far removed from their best work. Unfortunately, it's a song that many people remember Great White for... while missing some great tunes.

I'm still a big fan of the "Stick It" era for Great White more than anything

 

[JerseyGirl]

Great White

ahh yeah, first album. Good stuff. I didn't know much about them until I first heard Face the Day off of their second album, and at the time, I thought it was actually Fastway. When I bought Shot in the Dark, I immediately became a fan.

 

[METALPRIEST]

Yeah they were much heavier and more metal in their early days.

 

[TheWhalerfan]

Great White for me..never liked Helter Skelter much.

Old Motley Crue all day over anything by Great White.
