It’s not often fans get to see the softer side of David Coverdale. The high-octane vocalist and front man of Whitesnake spends a lot more time belting out metal classics like ‘Still of the Night’ than he does talking about kittens and rainbows.

Jeff Holbrook — Wed, 02 May 2012 12:39:11 +0000

David Coverdale's notorious Led Zeppelin inspirations were never more prominent than on today's Vault track. If Plant sang it, it would BE Led Zeppelin. Well, seemingly anyway. Maybe it did go over the line but it's still great, it's still Coverdale and it's pure Whitesnake at their Zeppis

More Whitesnake – An Entire Box 'O' Snakes!

Jeff Holbrook — Mon, 14 Nov 2011 14:09:29 +0000

I loved this band when they first got going in the 1970′s. WAY different from the quasi hair metal Coverdale and company churned out during the 1980′s. The early stuff was real. Blues rock baby. If you were an early fan too, be aware of the new Box ‘O’ Snakes 1978-1982 at your favorite on-line [...]

Zeppelin Inspired Snake – David Coverdale on Today's Vault

Jeff Holbrook — Fri, 09 Sep 2011 14:19:40 +0000

The word "inspired" used for respectful purposes. "Complete rip off" would make more sense for Slow 'n' Easy. Coverdale took so much to the jaw over this blatant use of Zeppelinisms that I don't think his credibility was ever the same. He did it to gre

Out just this week are two of David Coverdale‘s finest sets dating back to the post Deep Purple days when his idea for Whitesnake was still in the embryo stage.
