Free Music Review: Whitesnake sliding from bluesy hard rock to flashy hair metal
Hit: 4 Stars
This album forms the transition between the early, bluesy, Bad Co./Paul Rogers sounding Whitesnake that came before, and the flashy-guitar, Led Zeppish hair metal we all heard on the radio in America in the late 80's. The overall effect is a solid, somewhat bluesy mid 80's British hard rock. I've found this CD grew on me over time - it's a little more solid rockin' than the early days (which I now prefer, though) and a little more feeling and bluesy than the flashy later albums.
I have found out recently that there was a different version released in Britain first, with original guitarist Micky Moody and more organ (by the best organist in rock, Jon Lord - who, however, kind of sits back in his days w/ Whitesnake), which might be preferred by the fans of the earlier era of the band.
A note on the lyrics - whereas some bands (e.g. Aerosmith) are known for a bit of sexual-innuendo, Whitesnake really goes over the top, such as song titles like "Slide It In" and "Spit It Out" should indicate. But then, we're talking about a band whose name is a euphemism for "wang", so what should we expect :) That being said, Coverdale has a rich, bluesy voice with a lot of feeling and there is a fair amount of emotion in these songs (as well as horniness), and this is the last we hear of him before he goes for that screaming Robert Plant metal style.
Slide It In Poster
Originally dismissed as a Led Zeppelin knockoff, Whitesnake, fronted by ex-Deep Purple singer David Coverdale, clattered around their hometown of Yorkshire, England for about six years before being discovered in the U.S. Their U.S. debut (fourth album) Slide It In (1984) captured the libidinous, restless spirit of frustrated youth, and climbed to No. 40 on the Billboard album chart. Eventually, it went double platinum on the back of the stealthy, pulsing "Slow An' Easy" and the propulsive title track. Shortly before recording the album, Coverdale recruited former Thin Lizzy guitarist John Sykes, who provided the band with the flair and technical wizardry it needed to become a contender in the big-hair, pop metal sweepstakes. --Jon WiederhornPop Music CDs
