 Rating:  - Whitesnake - Good To Be BadI'd given up on the 'Snake in the early nineties as I'd thought musically and (in particular) lyrically they'd stagnated. As a returnee to the band following thier UK tour with Def Leppard & the release of the 30th Anniversary album I thought I give the new album a listen. I wish I hadn't bothered - if, like me, your a fan of the old heavy rock/bluesy Snake - or maybe even the more melodic MOR rock of the later eighties - well, keep those memories as this is poor stuff. I'm surprised DC has put his name to this given the quality of his solo/Page releases. The vast majority of this is metal verging on thrash with a poor set of stereotypical lyrics. As bad as this is, DC's voice isn't what it once was, although it must be said that a bad mix ...

Aldrich does a wonderful job on guitars and I really do not understand what some of the more negative people were expecting. This is a Whitesnake album in every sense of the word, without too much influence from the comtemporary rock scene (and better for it). More albums please Mr. Coverdale... Rating: - Time to Give it Up Mr. CoverdaleGood to be Bad, Whitesnake's first album in a long, long time. And whilst it's their best offering since the fantastic '1987'(which wouldn't be difficult, seeing as Slip of the Tounge has to be the WORST album in rock history and Restless Heart was also disappointing) it's overshadowed by the shocking state of David Coverdale's voice. The frontman from Saltburn by Sea has been my favourite singer for over 25 years and was, I thought, simply untouchable. But, truth be told, his voice is no longer the joy to listen to it has been for most of my life. And that's such a shame, as the songs are strong and well played, if a little over heavy in places. And the lyrically Coverdale is just repeating himself-again. "Over the mountains/across ... Read More: Rating: - US Snake has a little less biteWhitesnake has always been Coverdale's beast but with 1987's commercial success he took his fine blues band and sacked them, choosing instead to employ an array of flash gits who are gifted musicians but lack soul. Bernie Marsden and Micky Moody could eat the lot of em up and spit out their bones. I love Whitesnake and Coverdale is a great singer and has long beem my hero but when will he learn that the new flash widdly widdly stuff is not a showcase for his bluesey vocals - the man is a singer not a screamer. This is an OK album but if you want to find out why how the 'Snake built their reputation listen to anything from Trouble to Slide it In. Rating:  - Thirty years on and still goin' strong!!!Thirty years in rock 'n' roll is a long time for anyone,but this album proves that Mr Coverdale has undeniable staying power,with tracks ranging from ballz out rockers-"Best Years"-is a personal favourite,to typical Whitesnake ballads-there's a wide ranging cornucopia of rock delights on offer here. Doug Aldrich and Reb Beach are on top form adding explosive power to the guitar solos/riffs-and I mean EXPLOSIVE!!! Overall,this is a excellent album,and dare I say it,possibly as good as their other renowned hit 1987? |
