WHITESNAKE Signs European Deal With SPV; New Live Album Due In November - Aug. 3, 2006
Steamhammer/SPV has announced the signing of WHITESNAKE, one of the greatest and most acclaimed hard rock acts of all time. November 3, 2006 in Germany and November 6, 2006 in Europe will see the arrival of WHITESNAKE's new double live album, "Live ... In The Shadow Of The Blues", capturing for posterity the infectious enthusiasm that the band has presented all over Europe during this year's festival season.

For thirty years, WHITESNAKE have been among the most influential representatives of their genre, having produced numerous rock music classics such as "Here I Go Again", "Is This Love", "In The Still Of The Night", "Fool For Your Loving", "Ain't No Love In The Heart Of The City" and "Walking In The Shadows Of The Blues".

"Live ... In The Shadow Of The Blues" includes almost all the remarkable hits from WHITESNAKE's career, as well as two timeless DEEP PURPLE classics in "Burn" and "Stormbringer". Coverdale was the frontman of the legendary British act between 1973 and 1976, making a significant contribution to numerous PURPLE highlights during this era. "Live ... In The Shadow Of The Blues" also includes four previously unreleased tracks in "Ready To Rock", "If You Want Me (I'll Come Running)", "All I Want Is You" and "Dog", eagerly awaited by all WHITESNAKE fans. The strictly limited version of the double album will be available in a top-quality digipack, featuring a number of surprises, among them the bonus track "Crying In The Rain", including a haunting drum solo by drum legend Tommy Aldridge.

Connoisseurs consider the current WHITESNAKE lineup one of the technically most accomplished in the band's history. The two outstanding guitar players — Doug Aldrich (ex-DIO) and Reb Beach (WINGER, ex-DOKKEN) — continue the long tradition of excellent guitarists that has always distinguished WHITESNAKE. The exceptional drummer Tommy Aldridge has been with the group for over twenty years, and bassist Uriah Duffy and keyboarder Timothy Drury are two world-class musicians who complement the lineup perfectly.

I was on their show a couple days ago (Serbia) and they were AMAZING! Coverdale still got GREAT vocal and rest of the band really shine! Still, I think that another live album is little too much, because 85% of the songs already exist on "Live...In The Still Of The Night" wich came out last year!

I saw their show last year here in Atlanta, and I must say I was BLOWN AWAY!!!! I already knew that Doug Aldrich was AWESOME, but damn Coverdale sill has the looks and the pipes. It was truly a great show!!! Whitesnake was always a bit too "popish" for me, but I have a new respect for them! The Deep Purple tracks, were an added bonus!!!!!

Sith Lord 333, your post was classic!!!

C'mon...Tommy Aldridge in the band 20 years!!! What a fuckin' joke, try he played drums on their 1987 tour, played on Slip of the Tongue and the following tour. OK 3-4 years there. Then since 2002 he's been with the band since Coverdale resurrected the band. Another 4 years. He is an awesome drummer and gives the songs a heavy metal kick even though WS isn't heavy metal.
Doug Aldrich and Reb Beach...both are great guitarists, truly amazing talents both with Cooper and Winger (Reb only). But in Whitesnake they play the songs in a heavy metal style and again WS is not heavy metal.

I'll be downloading the 4 new tracks.

Oh yeah...Whitesnakes on a plane...that's too fuckin funny.

And to the guys bitching about the "love theme" in many Whitesnake songs:

Check out the earlier shit!!
In my opinion Whitesnake was THE bluesrock band of it's time.
Albums like Lovehunter, Ready an' willing, that shit rocks!

Albums like LoveHunter, Ready n Willing, Saints and Sinners and Slide it In (the UK version without John Sykes) were their finest. They were a blues rock band before the hitmaker
John Kalonder: John Kalonder de-balled the band and made them into what he turned Aeromsith into around the late 80's.

They will always be a legend!!!! They were the ultimate blues rock band when they started and issued some unsurpassed shit to date! Just check the stuff from '78 to '84. So what if they did some metal stuff back in '87 and '89? In order to really break it big? It was great. Not perfect, but really good. David made some good money, so what? Who wouldn't? 1997 was again blues-based rock! Good old times of yore...

And he is still going after 30+years!!!

I just wish they issued a new fucking studio material some time soon. High fucking time!!!

Coverdale is one of the coolest voices in the hard rock/metal world.
People talking shit about WS probably do not like hard rock.. so being the case shut the fuck up and stop bashing something you do not know / like. Nobody forces you to like WS and I really do not understand why you would spend time throwing shit here and there :(
