Hooked (Great White album)

Hooked is the fifth studio album by American rock band Great White, released on February 18, 1991.

Q Magazine's Jeff Clark-Meads described the album as "relaxed, mellow and endearing - though this is likely to engender disappointment for those who hitherto considered Great White a metal act.

The cover was judged too risque by the label and replaced by art director Hugh Syme shortly after the initial pressing with an alternative cover that has the hook still below the sea level and the model partially submerged, so that only her head and arms are visible.

The initial Japanese pressing retained the original cover, and added a bonus CD entitled Live in New York, recorded at Electric Lady Studios on May 31, 1991.
