Retroactive Records has reissued / remastered the first ’80s albums from WHITE HEART, the band founded by Dann & David Huff before Giant, including bonus tracks. As requested, here’s the last from the batch, the band’s self titled debut ”White Heart”.
When White Heart hit the scene in with this album in 1982 they took their cues from Toto, Airplay, Jay Graydon, Chicago, Pages, Foreigner, etc, all their albums featured class AOR / commercial melodic rock music which still sounds relevant today.
Lead by Dann Huff’s exquisite guitar work “White Heart” mixes the early ’80s refined AOR sound with smooth FM radio / West Coast, virtuoso instrumentation in the style of the LA Session Crew, and some wonderful melodic songs.
You can hear the difference with the original CD version (long time out of print) with this fuller remastering.

Lead by Dann Huff’s exquisite guitar work, “Vital Signs” still retains the smooth AOR / West Coast / FM sound of its predecessor but adds a slightly rocking touch according to the era, something White Heart will increase into future releases.

Retroactive Records has reissued / remastered the first ’80s albums from WHITE HEART, the band founded by Dann & David Huff before Giant, including bonus tracks. As requested, here’s the band third LP from 1985, “Hotline“.
When White Heart hit the scene in 1982, they took their cues from Petra, Toto, REO Speedwagon, Chicago, Foreigner, Night Ranger (and some Bon Jovi here on Hotline). The 1982 self-titled debut, follower ‘Vital Signs’ and then ”Hotline” all feature class AOR / commercial melodic rock music which still sound relevant today.
While master guitarist Dann Huff left the band shortly after the release of ‘Vital Signs’ to pursue his dream of being a top studio musician, he recommended his high school friend, Gordon Kennedy as his replacement for the next White Heart album, “Hotline”. And what a great recommendation; Kenned not only is a tasteful six-string player, but also an excellent vocalist.
Still commanded by bro David Huff, ”Hotline” showcases a more ‘mid-Eighties’ sound, with stronger guitars, a certain melodic rock edge, and ‘that’ keys/ synths.
