For some reason I go back to watching this video because it makes me want to practice guitar again how melodic it is.Does anybody feel the same way when they watch this
Same here dude in 1992 I gave up playing bass because of the grudge bullshit I was already in a stable band going from playing covers we got out shit together only to be told to do what Pearl Jam or idiots of nirvana so three years ago coworker gave me cheap bass ( China amazing bass) but that’s all needed so I would go bald and watch this video and many like it. So yes brother yes.
1989....jr year going into my senior year of high school 89-90, saw this tour in may of 1990 right before graduating one of the last great albums of the 80's good times.
As far as we know, the present day (even in an awful pandemic) is probably better than the alternative, so we should try to make the best of things and enjoy it while we can!
I didn't know Coverdale could play guitar let alone that well. Seems very blued influenced with some jazzy chords. I love seeing the Peavey VTM 60's...Whitesnake is why I bought a VTM60 and a 120 back in the day. And Adrian Vandenberg is why I bought Peavey Nitros (still own 3) and Tracers.
Jellyfish have survived for over 600 million years without a brain. A ray of hope for some at the BBC. And despite the rumors, I did not sleep with all of their wives. The fine men at the BBC that is, not the jellyfish.
Coverdale hails from my neck of the woods, although he never really spoke with a local accent, he never really spoke like that either...so why the fuck he chooses to speak like little lord snooty now, is beyond me...just be yourself, and stop trying to be someone that your'e not
Unbelievable Stuff !!! Thank you David for sharing them with us !!! God Bless You !!! (michadas here from BBS - if you remember - Our Best Regards from Greece)
David is beyond FINE, until this day. I was fortunate enough to get to one of their concerts. Great band and I loved all of the hair! What a voice too. In some songs he sounds a lot like Robert Plant, but a bit deeper.
As far as I remember, Steve Vai came aboard pretty late. Adrian had an injury that prevented him from recording (what you see here is just rough pre-production that didn't go on the album), so Steve recorded all the guitars parts, in his Mothership studio. The songs had been written at that stage.
I just read the Rudy Sarzo bio, and it's a little weird to see him with Whitesnake now that I know so much about him and his life. He is truly a great human being!!!!
Some fun memories, as my wife (asst. to Kalodner) and I were back stage and at after bars with these guys, when in town, and I spent a fair amount of time at Keith's Goodnight LA, and produced a few acts at the Record Plant, the worst of which was the morning after the LA riots, where all of Hollywood was a ghost town, and why Vai parked his chopper inside. Time, how she flies...
@@lindahandley5267 IK, R?!Those days were just a blur, Inda. If I wasn't auditioning with Sammy's band (after he left), I was doing background vocals on Lion LP's with Doug Aldrich, or attending backyard dinner parties with Aerosmith at Eddie Rosenblatt's (prez of Geffen Rec.). Now that I'm an older guy, things haven't lightened up much, as I'm acting full time, having recently worked with Harrison Ford, Owen Wilson, Salma Hayek, Post Malone and a Super Bowl commercial. Same blur, different decade! Lol
Es excelente en todo lo que hace!!!!! Un lujo de músico, un gran compositor y el gran cantante. Es maravillosos poder verlo tocando ya que en vivo no lo hace
I saw a picture of David playing Tommy Bolins Strat in Pirate Sound in June 1975. I know it was Tommy's as he used to gaffer tape his plectrums to the scratch board. Something tells me David didn't ask to play Ritchie's...
Good hear .. Training . Beign a guitar player too thats help . And vice versa . Im also a singer( and drummer first , but play a bit a guitar too ) and i had better pitch that my guitar players in bending and vibrato .
Mr. Coverdale is a very good guitar player, which should not be a great surprise given that he has played music with John Sykes, Tommy Bolin, and Ritchie Blackmore!
Roberto valiño Probably everyone who watches this clip knows that Mr. Coverdale is a singer; but check 5:39-5:50. Who is playing the guitar there: Mr. Coverdale. Though we all know he is a great singer, I just wanted to show my respect for his bluesy guitar playing, which I think is very good.
Ronni jammes dio is a good lead singer .but sometimes play flute.but he is a very good lead singer (sorry for my english.and sorry for mencioned dio he was dead)
Roberto valiño That's okay. I agree that Ronnie was a great singer too, though I didn't know that he played flute. I like some of the songs he did in Rainbow in particular. R.I.P, R.J.D.
When they were listening to the tracks in the truck, when I was mixing my first record, I played the tracks on my Pioneer home stereo, little ghetto blaster, the Walkman, and the car stereo just to find out if it sounded good across the board. It did.
If only John Sykes hadn't suggested that Whitesnake get another singer when Coverdale was off on the sick with sinus problems... He must have been a simpleton if he thought he'd get away with that.
I think they're touring again. I'm trying to see him too! I have to hear him speak live just once and I'll be happy. I just hope they come to the States.
Wow! I wonder what the place in Lake Tahoe is now? Imagine looking at homes and you end up buying the place these guys wrote an album in.......how cool. In the beginning DC,, said he rented it. If you look at the part with them in the bronco, you can see buildings in the background.
so I wondered too, and you will like what i found I believe the bronco scene is a motel parking lot where the band might be staying...the building "behind" them looks like a motel, and it looks exactly like the building they are entering......the Parking lot and the busy road behind them doesnt look like a rock star address on the lake.it looks motelish.... so, I believe Coverdale Bought that "rental" house, because he has owned the same house in Tahoe since 1988,crystal bay,....... and I believe it is the house where they are writing and rehearsing in this video..... here is a full video of David Coverdales house in 2019 www.sacbee.com/news/business/article228879989.html/video-embed
Tommy is pretty straight up. Very in to keeping physically over the top. Don't know if he tried the things that could be had. He needed no enhansement and still squeeky clean.
Coverdale has a cool self-deprecating way of talking about himself.His speaking voice is uncannily similar to comedian Matt Berry character Toast of London."Can you hear me Clem Fandango ? "
Whats with the glasses DC? I thought he god his eyes fixed in 73 when he joined his best band Deep Purple. At least it says in the official DP biography that they got them fixed.
It's not that the follow up album to Whitesnake didn't have good songs,it's just they sounded generic.I like Vandenburg,but Whitesnake no longer had the songwriting talent or guitar muscle of Sykes. Huge loss to Coverdale.
No doubt Coverdale is a great singer and artist but Ι wonder what happened to his voice after 1985.He could not sing that high notes when he was younger...Huge difference.
No matter how big and how famous they get, they still will be an under rated band!
To bad the lead singer didn't feel that way
For some reason I go back to watching this video because it makes me want to practice guitar again how melodic it is.Does anybody feel the same way when they watch this
Same here dude in 1992 I gave up playing bass because of the grudge bullshit I was already in a stable band going from playing covers we got out shit together only to be told to do what Pearl Jam or idiots of nirvana so three years ago coworker gave me cheap bass ( China amazing bass) but that’s all needed so I would go bald and watch this video and many like it.

for sure.
Whitesnake is awesome bands I love their music 🎶

I was 9 lol but my mum was a fun
I can not beleive this was 33 years ago where on earth has the time gone !!
TLS Sand shit I remember being in Madison Square Garden NY when Whitesnake was Deep purple minus Blackmore. Rough n Ready.
@@BigPoppa-t3z I hate it the 70s and 80s are gone !! Those were the last of the great years !!
@ I hear ya . It seems like yesterday I was 23 years old and partying down every day . Now I'm 48 and it still seems like yesterday .
As far as we know, the present day (even in an awful pandemic) is probably better than the alternative, so we should try to make the best of things and enjoy it while we can!
Wish more bands back in the day did this very cool to watch!!!!

Didn't know you were so proficient on the guitar David! Thanks for this series, it fascinating to watch.
Great to see David playing guitar.
🐍 line up: David Coverdale, Tommy Aldrigde,Rudy Sarzo,Adrian Vandenberg And Steve vai 👏👏👏👏
By far the best part of the video is David showing his skills as a guitar-man.
GREAT JOB ALL...THANX 4 MAKING Tee with LIONS NAMED LEO the music worldwide.
LOVE YOU ALL...!!!
Loved White snake back in the day! LOT'S & LOT'S OF GOOD SONGS! Very talented band.
Vandenberg's guitar work from the demos smokes, they should have been used on the album.
Saw them open for Dio in Seattle, July 1984, 'Last In Line' Tour. Great live band.
I love this place too! ❤️
STG David Coverdale has the sexiest speaking voice I've EVER heard.
Actually,Coverdale can be a narrator for National Geographic...just hear his voice when he speaks...
Jellyfish have survived for over 600 million years without a brain.
A ray of hope for some at the BBC.
And despite the rumors, I did not sleep with all of their wives.
The fine men at the BBC that is, not the jellyfish.

@@Ratsotone He has definitely lost his Redcar accent!
@@Ratsotone it sounds natural imo
That was a good look, David! The Plaid with the Eyeglasses!
We gather in the truck to get to know each other better and see if everyone had showered that day. LMAO
Love the sound of , “Slip of the toungue”.
Love the hook city judgement day demo work. Incredible
Unbelievable Stuff !!! Thank you David for sharing them with us !!! God Bless You !!! (michadas here from BBS - if you remember - Our Best Regards from Greece)
"Oh here we go.. truck full of hair".. Hilarious

David Coverdale was Incredibles voice very underrated rock singer
hes a twat after what he did to SYKES ,hes a prick
David is beyond FINE, until this day. I was fortunate enough to get to one of their concerts. Great band and I loved all of the hair! What a voice too. In some songs he sounds a lot like Robert Plant, but a bit deeper.
Covetdale doesn't sound like Plant at all.
@Kiki, okay, that's Your opinion.
@@lindahandley5267 what song does Coverdale sound like Plant?
@Ki, what's your problem? I have My opinion, you have yours, give it a rest. Peace out!
@@lindahandley5267 no one sound like another..."but a bit deeper"...lol
Nice collection of Peavy VTM’s. Best amp they ever made.
Thanks for posting this. Love whitesnake especially Adrian and Texas Tommy! =)

Wow what a voice
hes a back stabbing prick after what he did to SYKES
Seems like every time the studio looks like a dump where no one in their right mind would record there, it actually sounds amazing.
Vandenberg style fits the Whitesnake style better than Vai's. Although i find Vai a fuckin great guitarist
This is kinda hilarious. David Coverdale is funny af.
Funny how tommy Aldridge looks the same since the mid 70s.
Cuz he's born old already
@Jersy, his place of birth is just about 10 minutes from me. I didn't realize it until after I went to one of their concerts. LOL.
He was born two days before Moses.
David should go into movie narration
I agree. His speaking voice is beautiful.
Love this! never seen this backstage stuff before. DC, how do you scream so in tune?? The best.
Good hear ..
Training .
Beign a guitar player too thats help .
And vice versa .
Im also a singer( and drummer first , but play a bit a guitar too ) and i had better pitch that my guitar players in bending and vibrato .
Its like playing your vibrato singing on guitar .
Wish I could meet you guys one day.. cheers.
Mr. Coverdale is a very good guitar player, which should not be a great surprise given that he has played music
with John Sykes, Tommy Bolin, and Ritchie Blackmore!
David coverdale is good lead singer no a guitar player
Roberto valiño Probably everyone who watches this clip knows that Mr. Coverdale is a singer; but check 5:39-5:50. Who is playing the guitar there: Mr. Coverdale. Though we all know he is a great singer, I just wanted to show my respect for his bluesy guitar playing, which I think is very good.

Yes.i know raimbow .i like. I love r&r .its my live. Nice to meet you . LONG LIVE ROCK&ROLL
Great hair.
would have been nice to hear whitesnake play burning heart
Coverdale was quite a good blues player.
I bet he would make an amazing blues album.
When they were listening to the tracks in the truck, when I was mixing my first record, I played the tracks on my Pioneer home stereo, little ghetto blaster, the Walkman, and the car stereo just to find out if it sounded good across the board. It did.
I get the feeling Tommy's hair is like Tim Currys santa in the santa clause, shave it off and it just comes back again....
If only John Sykes hadn't suggested that Whitesnake get another singer when Coverdale was off on the sick with sinus problems...
He must have been a simpleton if he thought he'd get away with that.
@gillan64 OK semantics, it was 1985, 35 years ago and I'm not his medical specialist. The throat problem came later.
Love Northwinds to bits.
I didn't know that Vandenberg wrote most of the guitar parts and Vai came in to just record them for the album.
Could have read the album credits in 1989 noob.
I love the blazer
Loved this video! All the best!!
Another notable feature of Coverdale in addition to all of that hair and charisma has always been his thick North Yorkshire accent.
That accent is hot.
@@mrsx7944 It's very different and more distinctive to my accent. I have a more London accent.
Eres más grande que una semana con tres sábados. Grande
I was looking forward to seeing Mr Coverdale again in June...thanks, coronavirus.
I think they're touring again. I'm trying to see him too! I have to hear him speak live just once and I'll be happy. I just hope they come to the States.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
q lindos momentos 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗😄
In my ears, the original demos sounded a lot better than the final outcome. Just stating:)
Wow! I wonder what the place in Lake Tahoe is now? Imagine looking at homes and you end up buying the place these guys wrote an album in.......how cool. In the beginning DC,, said he rented it. If you look at the part with them in the bronco, you can see buildings in the background.

so, I believe Coverdale Bought that "rental" house, because he has owned the same house in Tahoe since 1988,crystal bay,....... and I believe it is the house where they are writing and rehearsing in this video..... here is a full video of David Coverdales house in 2019

The real deal !

Super !!!

Quite agree.. Van's the man!!

Steve Vai did an amazing job on this album
VAI made this record Glossy .
Look what it was here .
10:48 Steve est un excellent riffer :)

Should be. Blackmore, Sykes, Vai, Vandenburg, he's had good company.

@@dickdastardly2560 or Ozzy.
what's the song playing at the beginning?
Interesting behind scenes insight..
At 8:56 is he holding a mic just because it's so comfortable? I think the recording mic is a condenser in front of him.
Maybe he wants to have some live-on-stage feeling in the vocal cabin.
Daniel Höhr That's what I thinkin' too.
I miss cassettes in trucks. And hair.
Oh my gawd, NORTHWINDS
Tommy is pretty straight up. Very in to keeping physically over the top. Don't know if he tried the things that could be had. He needed no enhansement and still squeeky clean.
Coverdale sounds like Matt Berry doing voiceovers. Bit of a UK reference.
Yesss! I was going to make the same comment! Did Matt Berry get his inspiration from David Coverdale?
Such small waistlines, such a lot of hair....mind you Coverdale still has a pretty good barnet.
haha, love that analogy.
Coverdale has a cool self-deprecating way of talking about himself.His speaking voice is uncannily similar to comedian Matt Berry character Toast of London."Can you hear me Clem Fandango ? "
Does anyone know the song starting around 9:02?
Which one's Dave Dowle?
Dave dowle left in 1979 .
Whats with the glasses DC? I thought he god his eyes fixed in 73 when he joined his best band Deep Purple. At least it says in the official DP biography that they got them fixed.
David was getting old in 89 ..haha .
38 years old

Dave's ego
@@richardherzog5405 Sykes immaturity to replace Coverdale and Take decision behind his back during vocal surgery recovery

@@Nissardpertugiu You believe everything Coverdale says?
You'll tell me next Vandenberg was injured,& couldn't play on Slip of the Tongue..
@@richardherzog5405 Don't call him Dave,he'll have a fit or pull your hair...or fire you even......
what is the song at the begining?
did you find ?
No doubt Coverdale is a great singer and artist but Ι wonder what happened to his voice after 1985.He could not sing that high notes when he was younger...Huge difference.
He had nasal surgery and it had a side effect of making his voice better. He’s talked about it.
Was Judgement Day originally supposed to be Wings of the storm or was he just messing around with the lyrics? 5:23
My friend Michael Mac!!!
tus 27 musicos todos lindos
I bet Coverdale is thinking "oh shit...why did I sack Sykes"
I think this was before Adrian injured his hand!
Not the same without John Sykes who gave them their signature sound and identity.
If they wanted to call it "Hook City", they should have kept John Sykes.
