Whitesnakes 30th Anniversary Collection

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 30th Anniversary 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. The three CD's cover the carrier of DC after he left Deep Purple. The first disc with tracks like Ready An' Willing and Fool For Your Loving (live) ...
...would say the first disc is best of Whitesnakes blues. The second CD contains the Coverdale Page songs as well as more live songs and a collection of Whitesnake hits. The third CD contains the song Best Years from Whitesnakes latest album and We Wish You Well the song Whitesnake wrote for their audiences but have never preformed live. The songs are very original and truly unique. Overall these three discs are excellent and anyone who likes Whitesnake ...

Review of 30th Anniversary Collection - Whitesnake

Rock that Air Guitar!

Advantages: Amazing vocals, lyrics and guitar work.
Disadvantages: not that I have found!

...Slide it in. The Greatest Hits album takes tracks from 3 previous albums the afore mentioned Slide it In, 1987, and Slip of the Tongue, as well as remakes from the very early albums such as Saints and Sinners and Lovehunter. You have a mixture of soul shaking power ballads like Is This Love, Cryin' in the Rain and Now you're Gone which gives you the feeling that Coverdale has never been lucky in love! But then tracks like Slide it In, Slow an' Easy, ...
...he was in love, music wasn't the only thing that rocked! When you hear the music and listen to the lyrics, you'll know what I mean! Unlike some of the "metal" bands around now, Whitesnake represent the core of Rock like Led Zeppelin, Rainbow, through to the like of Bon Jovi and Aerosmith, and each song tells a story. This man can do things with his voice that Christina Aguilera, Brtiany Spears and Justin Timberlake could only dream of. Buy it, ...

Review of Greatest Hits - Whitesnake

Extra! Extra! Coverdale flaunts his Whitesnake.

Advantages: Good time rock'n'roll with a large drop of blues added for good measure
Disadvantages: Very samey with lyrics that are sometimes hideous

...Track Listing 1   -   Come and Get it 2   -   Hot Stuff 3   -   Don't Break My Heart Again 4   -   Lonely Days, Lonely Nights 5   -   Wine, Women an' Song 6   -   Child of Babylon 7   -   Would I Lie to You 8   -   Girl 9   -   Hit and Run 10 -   Till the Day I Die The guitars, as was very much de rigour on records by the Snakes and many rock bands around at the time, were clean sounding and subdued in the mix.  The bands could never capture ...
...Nowadays, with production techniques having improved, the sound recorded in the studio can match the stage performances to a nearer comparison but during those dark old days of yore fans had to remember those live gigs to really appreciate the quality of the material they bought because the sound was considerably different.  I'm sure dated Hi-fi equipment played its part to just as great a degree.   The track that instantly stands out from the set ...

Review of Come An' Get It - Whitesnake

W.A.S.P Double Album Set

Advantages: Great value if you're trying to update your vinyl or audio tape collection
Disadvantages: Its quite hard to remove the second cd from the case.

What more needs to be said, Vintage WASP at their very best. The first two clasic WASP Albums in one cover for the price of one C.D. Tracks from the first album simply entitled W.A.S.P such as 'I Wanna Be Sombody' 'L O V E Machine' and The Torture Never Stop' will have you banging your head in no time, while tracks from the second album 'The Last Command' like 'Wild Child' 'Ball Crusher' and 'Im Blind In Texas' will blow you away. The lead singer ...
