    Whitesnake at their best

    By Michael  Jan 26, 2006

    Pros: John Sykes

    Cons: n/a

    While Whitesnake released a string of strong albums in the 80's, the self-titled disc is simply the best of them all. Coverdale's voice has always been cool with his bluesy rasp. What kicks the band into overdrive is the addition of guitarist... John Sykes. His guitar sound is big and he propels excellent tunes like Still Of The Night and the re-recorded Here I Go Again. This disc has all the makings of a classic. Read more Less

    Whitesnake's Best Album

    By gcanimal  Jun 13, 2003

    Awesome! This album is very fast and very heavy. Most of Whitesnake's material were mainly bluesy hard rock. But this one has most of the songs on here are Heavy Metal due to guitar playing styles of John Skyes and Adrian Vandenberg. From melodic... rock ballad "Is this Love?" and hard rocking "Here I go again" and "Don't turn away" to Heavy tracks "Bad Boys", "Still in the Night", and "Crying in the rain", this is easily their best. This is also their most commercially successful album. Guitars riffs and solos are ferociously fast and heavy makes this the classic rock/metal album. Read more Less

Pro Reviews: Whitesnake

  • All Music Guide

    David Coverdale built Whitesnake's commercial breakthrough on a collection of loud, polished hard rockers, plus the band's best set of pop hooks. The Led Zeppelin-ish "Still of the Night" offered headbanger appeal, but it was the big chorus of "Here I Go Again" -- one of the very small number of non-power ballad '80s hard rock singles to actually top the pop charts -- and the quiet ballad "Is This Love" that really sold the album in spades. The rest of the album generally holds interest as well, and it's easily the band's best.

Biography

David Coverdale

Depending who you ask, Whitesnake singer David Coverdale is either almost single handedly responsible for keeping bluesy hard rock alive in the British charts during the late ‘70s/early ‘80s, or is merely a Robert Plant clone who hit it big in the U.S. later in the ‘80s as an ‘MTV band' - by merging familiar Led Zeppelin sounds with pop metal/power ballads, and sexe... Read more
