Advantages: Contains a vast diversity of music from David Coverdale's post Deep Purple carrier Disadvantages: Nothing, unless you hate Whitesnake (and if you did you wouldn't be reading this)
Whitesnakes 30thAnniversary Collection appears to be a glorified greatest hit album. However it's more than this. Its 52 tracks contain live tracks, the original version of Here I Go Again, songs from David Coverdale's (DC's) album with Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin and of course songs from DC's solo work.

No one is safe - critics, hecklers, the Warhol scene, Patti Smith, politics. During "Walk On The Wild Side" Lou decides to tell the story of how he came to write the song. After 15 minutes the song peters out a little and he's only sung the first verse!
"Waiting For The Man" is similarly strung out, with loads of chat before morphing into an uncredited "Temporary Thing".
But it's all like that. "ConeyIslandBaby" is quite brilliantly performed, the conclusion is deeply affecting as Lou and the backing singers chant, over ...
Advantages: It's Bowie Disadvantages: Another version to buy!
does have a very naughty couplet “inside every teenage girl is a fountain, inside every young pair of pants there’s a mountain”. This like looking at an artist’s sketch book, this the idea but I will do this instead.
Diamond Dogs (K.Tel edit) (4.37) this is a unique edit of the title track to fit the 1980 best of catalogue number (NE1111). I still have the advertising poster for this along with other posters in a box in the loft ka-ching!
Candidate (2.37) (Intimacy mix) the album track re-mixed for the soundtrack of the film “Intimacy”.
Rebel Rebel (2003) completely reworked for the “Charlie’s Angles” “Full Throttle soundtrack, this arrangement is the opening live track on the Reality Tour DVD.
This is a 1999 re-master using a 2004 transfer which has again improved ...
