The great Neil Murray's bass is a massive part of this song (in whatever version). Coverdale should never have let him go. His playing is the real Whitesnake bass!
I will always love Whitesnake and DC, but to me, -THIS is the original, -and best version, with the three M´s. Period! It is sad Jon Lord is not with us anymore. But, the music lives on, so Come an´ Get it!
I got the original recording from the front mixer of this (i was WS sound engineer) John did a beautiful intro and it was a very special show that night 23.11.78 Hammersmith Odeon.👍🇬🇧
My fav Snake track....great to see Bernie, Micky and Neil, really great.... i did the front sound for early Wsnake and still have the recording from the mixer of this epic song at Hammy Odeon 23.11.78.👍🇬🇧
MANNNN!!! That’s Awesome!! I’d LOVE to hear that! I too am a former pro touring/recording drummer/artist, (and YES....A Great FOH Audio Engineer Is EXTREMELY Important, And An Equal Member Of The Band Too, As Far As I’m Concerned)... Hope you’re hangin’ in there during “The GreatReset New World Normal.” ❤️Nothin’ But Love From FEMA REGION VIIII(NorCal/Sac)❤️
You can tell how much Marsden and Moody love the original Bobby Bland version...covering a belter of a song like this is always risky but as BB King said, Marsden has got the blues in his fingers.
Oooooh! Hairs on my neck. 1978, Hammersmith Odeon London. This an Mistreated. On the balcony broadcast live for the first time by Tommy Vance an BBC Radio 1 all across Europe an UK. Live recording by the Mannor mobile studio for live album, Live in the heart of the city. What a night for me at 13 an my first rock gig. 2nd was Iron Maiden at the St Albans city hall UK 3wks later. Thanks for the music an the memories guys Paul 13.17 gmt Uk cheers
First gig I ever went to was Whitesnake (with these three in the band) supported by Magnum (before Mark Stanway). Not a bad introduction to live music.
I grew up on the Original version of this Classic Song by the Legendary Bobby Blue Bland R.I.P., but Whitesnake did a really good cover of this Blues Classic.
Marsden moody Murray def the best line up..these guys made whitesnake, such a shame they split from Coverdale. all to do with money i guess. Musical differences means money lol
i didn't go to this because i thought they'd have a lousy singer. if i'd known A, who doogie white was and B, that he was singing that night, i'd have been there in a flash.
The two vocalist thing is a bit weird, bit of a dick measuring contest thing towards the end. I loved whitesnake back in the day. Imagine how "big" they would have been if D.C didn't wake up in the U.S.
Sadly the vocals are not doing justice to the fabulous musicians. The 'backing track' (for want of a better word) is played with sensitivity and class by the musicians. Neil Murray plays with subtlety and creates a great groove with the drummer. The keyboards add lovely texture. And Bernie Marsden and Micky Moody - ever complementing each other musically and never stepping on one another's musical toes - just fabulous. Sadly the vocals let the side down - badly. I almost wish they had held on to Jorn Lande, (who though during his time with these guys was a Coverdale 'clone', sang with power and in tune...)
Bwahhhh..... The original Whitesnake cover of Bobby Bland is much better. OK the singer does by moments do a good effort to come relatively close, but nullifies that quickly with odd own accents. I stopped listening to Whitesnake from 1987 onwards, and saw here on TH-cam that was a very wise decision. This effort here is soso, it's a bit too slow, and the singer should have remained closer to the original, without personal frivolities. He also misses the stage pressence of a young Coverdale, before the latter ran into two agressive icehockeyplayers, and made a joke about their loud shirts. You know, since he started singing like a castrato. Coverdale isn't aging very nicely either.
RIP Bernie Marsden
Gutted to hear the news. Can't believe it. What better a way to remember him that to watch his mastery on this version?
Thanks for bringing us joy Mr. Marsden. Thank you for the music.
Just popped by to pay my respects. R.I.P Bernie.
The great Neil Murray's bass is a massive part of this song (in whatever version). Coverdale should never have let him go. His playing is the real Whitesnake bass!
Underrated Bass player, his playing on Time is Right for Love on the trouble album is one of my favorite Bass tracks to play
Yes !!!
"Walking in the Shadow of the Blues" from the live album...clinic.
Coverdale never had the choice!!
Thanks for the music Bernie. We love you and we’ll never forget you. The music lives on forever. 🎸🎤🤘
That was one of the best versions i've ever heard😮😮😮

And sadly today we learn that Bernie is no longer with us. A fitting way to remember him, watching this astonishing version of an absolute classic.
This was the Whitesnake Magnum Connection..R.I.P. Bernie Marsden and Jimmy Copley...👍🤘

Can you release it or it copy write protected, ,
I shook hands with Mr Marsden. Great man and greater blues man. He'l like that.

Underated rip Bernie damn your songs were huge part of my youths song soundtrack
Gotta love Doogie. He fits with these masters.
Oooooh! Hairs on my neck.

Paul 13.17 gmt Uk cheers
There is a chemistry between musicians that only time brings.
These M3 videos are boss. So damn good.
Superb live and all it needed was DC as in the good old days of white snake.
I remember seeing these two Ace guitarists back in the late 70s and early 80s with Whitesnake
Wow....you are blessed. Must have been beyond cool
I was the sound engineer in that period for Wsnake....got some great recordings👍🇬🇧
Whitesnake at their best. British blues rock at its best.
My favourite Whitesnake track!
Mine too!
Super musicalement et les chanteurs tout est bien coordonne bravo quel talent
These guys so have it, incredible feeling. Great musicians.
The great Mark Stanway from Magnum on keyboard duties.
First gig I ever went to was Whitesnake (with these three in the band) supported by Magnum (before Mark Stanway). Not a bad introduction to live music.
R.I.P. Jimmy Copley 🕯🎶🕯
I am so thankful this video exists. Thank you for sharing.
Bernie y moody los verederos genios del sonido Whitesnake
This was Snake till Dave went pop was lucky or old enough to see them at the old Monsters of Rock in the 80's
Me too! I saw them at the Monsters of Rock, A night I will never forget
Love this song !! (sweden)......
Great song and wow what a singer together with the legends
Exelente Musico el Sr.Mardsen tal vez poco reconocido !
Old is Gold !
I Was there...Great show / Greats Musicians🎸😎👊
I was there that night at the Mechanics, absolutely fantastic. RIP Jimmy Coply
I did sound on a couple of gigs with Bernie with Jimmy on drums.
Nice chap and an amazing drummer. Sad loss.
Great intro and the rest..
IIT'S - BOMBA ! I LIKE 👍👍👍👍👍! Bernie and Micky and Neil - SUPER ! DOOGIE WHITE ? - wow ! . ORIGINAL - BOBBY BLUE BLAND - 1974 .
Bravo gentlemen, Bravo!

The feeling on this song!!!
Amazing!
MARAVILLOSO
I grew up on the Original version of this Classic Song by the Legendary Bobby Blue Bland R.I.P., but Whitesnake did a really good cover of this Blues Classic.
RUTHLESS BLUES...!!!!!

1978 Music Machine Camden Town. Right down at the front....
amazing
Stefan Berggren no1 🤘
As Good a Rendition as I've heard. 👏💯😎
Wow, just looking for reference for this song, and I only live in the next town over.
Music Bobby "BLUE" Bland 👏👏👏👏
This is the real white snake to me.
Half of it at least.
I can imagine Paul Rogers singing this
I see Bernie didn't take The BEAST, out for a spin! \m/
Just a guitar, the magic comes from the musician.
@@ankihansen2489 True dear! True!
that's a Sid Poole, Bernie has a few of them...fantastic luthier who passed away a while ago. Micky has a couple as well.
Nicholas Guitars very collectible guitars. Geoff Whitehorn has some as well. Great players and great guitars.
Looks like Bernie and Micky are playing their Sid Poole guitars here. RIP Sid.
The best version of Whitesnake
❤
Should only be Stefan singing on this one 👌
Marsden moody Murray def the best line up..these guys made whitesnake, such a shame they split from Coverdale. all to do with money i guess. Musical differences means money lol
Who's the second singer...& why is he there
the singer (not doogie) kind of reminds me of how john sykes sings. sykes could "kill" these songs,,
i didn't go to this because i thought they'd have a lousy singer. if i'd known A, who doogie white was and B, that he was singing that night, i'd have been there in a flash.
was doing real good then doogies stepped in.. Should had let stephan run with it..
Thinking exactly the same!
I agree, Doogie White overacts too much!
How to renew battery in ovation guitar
Great but just think how it would sound with Jorn Lande on vocals.
If they hade Jorn Lande on vocal this 🙄i wish
he's on both The Snakes albums.
okei!!!!
Respect whitesnake listen this song in Spore during school day 1977
Question? Was this ever released on CD? I think it should be released on CD and Bluray.
Yes it was, CD and DVD both still available on Amazon
Yes I've got the whole concert on cd, its superb
The two vocalist thing is a bit weird, bit of a dick measuring contest thing towards the end. I loved whitesnake back in the day. Imagine how "big" they would have been if D.C didn't wake up in the U.S.

I almost wish they had held on to Jorn Lande, (who though during his time with these guys was a Coverdale 'clone', sang with power and in tune...)
if you mean "Bernie Marsden".. as below without him the Band wouldn't exist
Jay Menon I have to agree with you.
Me gustaron mas las versiones con Tony Martín en las voces....
Good performance....although Doogie White did his best to ruin it....
Bwahhhh..... The original Whitesnake cover of Bobby Bland is much better. OK the singer does by moments do a good effort to come relatively close, but nullifies that quickly with odd own accents.

Less singing more acting. The black t-sirht singer kinda jack black.
Totally over the top...embarrassing
The drummer tries so much NOT to play like Ian Paice, he's just ruining the song
