- Are You Ready To Rock?
This album has some wonderful moments - it is what you'd expect and more from David and his crew. 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...

- Time to Give it Up Mr. Coverdale
Good 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 the sea..." Heard it before somewhere on a better Snake album.
The Snake well of lyrics has run dry, it would appear.
My opinion may seen harsh, but I don't mean it to, as Overall, Good to be Bad is a good album-musically speaking. It's played by fine musicians who have honed thier craft over many years and have deilvered well on this album. But I honestly think that David Coverdale should hang up his mic. His once magnificent voice is gone...only a rasping, tired, pale imitation remains.
Rating: - US Snake has a little less bite
Whitesnake 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.

- 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?
Rating: - More naughtiness from Mrs. Coverdale's little boy!!
I saw Whitesnake last night at the MEN Arena in Manchester, and it was the icing on a cake I have been nibbling at for the past couple of months! As a Whitesnake fan for over 20 years, I was worried that David would go down the road many "reformers" do and come up with something mediocre and not at all fitting past form. NOT HERE MISSUS!! I have listened to this album repeatedly for the past two months, and I kinda think it's their best (ducking the rotten veg from classic rockers). It has been mentioned that although in the vein of the late 80's Snake, there are elements of the older blues and some Coverdale/Page feeling. I agree, and with the added punch of today's production makes this a force to be reckoned with. Add two true guitar heroes in Doug Aldrich (also a killer songwriter) and Reb Beach, and you're laughing. They kick it live, too! Rock on David, and Whitesnake too!!
