Whitesnake Love Songs

Any band would have been hard-pressed to follow the success of a multi-platinum album with another one of equal or higher quality both critically and commercially. Needless to say, that's exactly what David Coverdale and Whitesnake were faced with when it came time to record 1989's Slip of the Tongue, the follow-up to their 1987 smash self-titled LP…

What a difference a year makes. After releasing the thoroughly disappointing Come an' Get It, Whitesnake made up for it in spades with 1982's excellent Saints & Sinners, their best record yet…

Multi platinum band WHITESNAKE co-headlined the LOUD PARK festival on October 15th 2011 at Saitama Super Arena in Japan during their "Forevermore World Tour".

Any band would have been hard-pressed to follow the success of a multi-platinum album with another one of equal or higher quality both critically and commercially. Needless to say, that's exactly what David Coverdale and Whitesnake were faced with when it came time to record 1989's Slip of the Tongue, the follow-up to their 1987 smash self-titled LP.

This 2013 release from the English hard rock legends features live material culled from the band's 2011 Forevermore world tour. The first disc, Made in Britain, features songs lifted from nine sold-out U.K. shows, and includes fan favorites like "Here I Go Again," "Ain't No Love in the Heart of the City," and "Still of the Night," while the second collection, The World Records, includes hits like "Slide It In," "Bad Boys," and "Soldier of Fortune," all of which were taken from international performances.

What a difference a year makes. After releasing the thoroughly disappointing Come an' Get It, Whitesnake made up for it in spades with 1982's excellent Saints & Sinners, their best record yet. Perhaps it was the arrival of new guitarist Mel Galley (replacing founding member Bernie Marsden) that re-energized the band…
