Rocking Tall
Rocking Tall is a compilation from the American hard rock band Warrant, released on 13 May 1996 through Sony Music Special Products. It gathers material from the band's first stretch, running from 1989 through 1992.
That span takes in the group's early run of albums, before Ultraphobic arrived in 1995 and Belly to Belly followed in 1996. Anyone looking for "Heaven", one of Warrant's best-loved songs, won't find it here. Still, it makes a handy snapshot of the band's early years, and it suits a listener who wants the late-80s and early-90s side of Warrant in one place.
