Customer Reviews

Needs To Be Louder
Musically speaking this cd is fairly good. My only complain is that the sound output is very low. In my car stereo the volume level of 7 is reasonably loud, but not to pearcing loud. Whenever I play songs from the "Gold" and "Good To Be Bad" cds that's the level i use. I made a mix from those two cds and from "Saints & Sinners" and whenever a song from "Saints" came on I had to turn the volume up to 9 so that it will be on the same level as the other songs. It just annoys me when there is a huge disparity in the level of sound output whenever I make a mix. I like all the songs to be at a equal sound level so I won't have to keep messing with the volume control. Anyways it is just my hang up.

Classic Whitesnake.
Whitesnake were the weakest of the post-Purple spin-off bands, mostly due to the pedestrian nature of the material and the lackluster playing of those involved. However, if one can get past the cliched lyrics and predictable arrangements, they'll find one of the band's stronger and more consistent releases here. Following a pair of mediocre albums (1980's Ready 'N' Willing and 1981's Come An' Get It)and a short break, the band reconvened and returned with their strongest set since the very good Lovehunter in 1979. While the lyrics are beyond embarrassing, the material is performed with an energy and fire lacking on the previous two albums. Despite Coverdale's valiant effort to destroy the songs with his juvenile lyrics, the band perform them with such vigor that they almost always manage to make them work.Included here are the original and far superior versions of Here I Go Again and Crying In The Rain. These were both re-recorded for their huge 1987 album, with that version of Here I Go Again topping the charts all around the globe. Both the originals are more stripped down than the remakes and are just warmer overall. This is a far from perfect album, but if you're looking for a good example of early Whitesnake, this is a great place to start.

Truly rockin' Whitesnake!
In the mid 80's I went in search of the entire 'Snake back catalog (on vinyl, of course!). When I found this I was happy. I immediately loved it. My favorite track is Here I Go Again. This, to me is the REAL version of the song, with the original lyric; "Like a HOBO, I was born to walk alone." (It was changed to DRIFTER, in 1987.) I LOVE the more bluesy sound of the song. Far superior to the 1987 remake. The same goes for this version of Crying In The Rain. I also love the title track, Bloody Luxury, and Victim Of Love, all of which truly rock! Definitely a classic! I highly recommend this for anyone who wants to hear a truly cohesive band. The guitars of Micky Moody (one of Britains most underrated slide guitarists!) and Mel Galley are great! The rhythm section of Neil Murray on bass, Deep Purple's Ian Paice (drums) and Jon Lord (keyboards) really hold it together.
