Great Remaster! - By: Natalie Shoard, 26 Oct 2007 
I love all Whitesnake albums so am probably biased, but this is great, the reissue is good & gives us newer fans the chance to buy whitesnake music this time round!
The best Whitesnake Album - By: Mr. Jonathan Clark, 01 Aug 2007 All the Whitesnake albums between Trouble & Slide itin (UK version) are excelent. This has become the cream of the crop by the addition of the Snakebite EP. The remastering is really good & you can really hear all the instruments clearly. Sometimes you can't tell what each musician is contributing as little fills can get lostin the mix, but this cd is excellent.
Buy this with "Live....in the Heart of the City" & live happily ever after.
At Last....Mr. Coverdale Gets The Full Re Mastered Treatment!!! - By: Mr. G. T. Clark, 17 May 2006 
At last, EMI have done it!!! Remastered some of the Whitesnake back cat!!! And as a bonus put they have put the first Whitesnake EP on it. This means you get to hear the studio version of "Ain't No Love In The Heart Of The City", whichin my opinion is far superior than all those live versions.
The original CD album on the whole suffered from those last '70's production values, where the drums always sounded as if they were recordedin a bathroom but that has been cleaned up & the power & excitement of Mr. Coverdale surrounded by his own band on their first outing is a joy to hear. And let me tell you, it's great to hear the blues crooning of David Coverdale coming over crystal clear!!! This man CAN sing.
Kicking off with the rocking "Take Me With You", which got a welcome airing on their last tour this album is full of those toungein cheek innuendo's that made this band fun to listen to. Put that together with the soulful blues of "Trouble" & the aforementioned "Ain't No Love..." & you've got yourself a classic blues rock album that this band went to better with their next release "Love Hunter" & then with "Ready And Willing".
There is also a cover of The Beatles "Day Tripper", which, with it's voice box arrangement certainly shows that the band were willing to experiment with arrangements. I used to be a Beatles purist...don't tamper with the originals was my stance but playing this again, it was refreshing to hear it again. And then there is the instrumental "Belgian Tom's Hat Trick", which bringsin the slide guitar excellence from Mick Moody.
A good ablum made great by the job of re mastering. The booklet contains extensive notes & interviews, with some great pictures. If you want to either re live those days when rock music was wonderfully under rated, thanks to punk, disco & the power pop bands of the late 1970's or discover a great blues rock albums, you cannot do any worse than buy this one.
