The Sharks were not as good as the debut record of Great White, tho.

The Sharks never released song great as Wooden Jesus
I think I have seen version of The Sharks..people talk like the band is legendary ..not so much. It’s one of those bands people mention that want to be cool
It’s kind of like when people only talk about Southgang because of Tug A War video and not Tainted Angel
Jani Lane and Bret Michaels should form a band called "Nelson II"

Not bad, but I prefer Law of the Order because that one has "Paris Calling" on it.

The Sharks later became Shark Island. Not sure what happened, but they had been kicking around LA since 1980 but didn't manage to get a deal and release a major label album until 1987. The scene had long passed them by that point.

Awesome frontman, cool songs, and they were fucking from LA. They didn't even have to move out there. Blows my mind they didn't get signed earlier.
