 Awesome June 12, 2009

I just can't understand some of the previous reviews slating the sound quality of this remaster. I wonder how familiar the reviewers were with the U.S. mix of this album which did actually feature different guitar work (courtesy of John Sykes) and Neil Murray's bass playing (as opposed to Colin Hodgkinson on the UK version). Perhaps this is why they hear a different version of the album than they were accustomed with- because the US mix is in many respects a different album to the original UK release.
br /As for the gripes with the sound and the quality of the remastering job, is it again perhaps the US mix rather than the remastering work which others are struggling with? I have had both the US and the UK mixes on CD for many years now and am therefore very familiar with both. I've played this new version in my car, on my hi-fi and on my i-Pod now and I think it sounds absolutely awesome- clear as a bell. I've also compared it to the versions of the very same songs which appear on "Here I Go Again- The Best of Whitesnake", as the tracks were also previously remastered for this US only compilation, and the the new remaster wins hands down. The artwork and design is superb and, if you are a fan of the band, I could not recommend this enough.

25 years after it was released, this album finally gets the CD release it deserves. First of all, the packaging is beautiful and far more striking than the original LP sleeve. Secondly, the 24 page booklet is nice, full of quotes and anecdotes and plenty of pics. The audio quality of the CD is first rate - awesome infact - and it is easy to hear the massive difference that exists between the UK and US mixes. Whilst the UK mix is great, it really does sound unfinished and demo-like compared to the US one. On the US mix, Coverdale sounds like he's in the same room as you and not nextdoor! Yes the drums are noticeably different, but I'd say they sound punchier. John Sykes really makes a huge difference to the album and his much heavier guitar-style suits the songs and raises everything up a notch. The DVD features all the promos, plus a rarely seen performance from Top of the Pops from Januray 1984. All in all, I really cannot see (or hear) why anyone would be disappointed with this. I can fully recommend it.

Along with Old Timer, I too think the sound on the remaster is simply stunning. A great 12 quids worth. The packaging is second to none and it is great to see the videos on the DVD. Hopefully the Donington 1983 show will get a full release at some point in the future.

Turn it Up! June 17, 2009

I read the reviews and the concerns about the remasters but I still went out and bought the cd.I already have both versions.I can't find anything wrong with the remaster of the UK mix, as for the US mix...its a little different but its not a poor mix.John Sykes and Mel Galley are very different in their playing thats all and of course you are gonna hear something different in the mix without Jon Lord.
br / Really all this cd needs is a little volume from your cd player/mp3 player/computer.
br /Whitesnake should never be background music, so turn it up and find the beauty again in this classic cd from Whitesnake.Credit where its due to David Coverdale for making sure the fans got something very special with this.
br /Its just a shame Mel Galley is not around to hear the good things folks are saying about his work with Whitesnake.The whole package, booklet, photos etc is first class and really the bonus for me was the videos.This cd is excellence if it was car it would be a Ferrari, if it was drink it would be Dom Perignon and if it was a movie star it would be Megan Fox.
sounds good to me June 9, 2009

being a fan of deep purple mk3 and 4, I decided to check out whitesnake with "good to be bad" last year and loved it, then a month or so after I picked up the 30th anniversary collection, I was thinking of buying the original version of this but when I heard about this version I decided to wait and see what it's like, and I loved it, I don't really have complaints about the sounds as it seems fine to me, comes through very clearly, I can't speak for the other reviewers but I don't think the drums sound tinny at all but that's just my opinion. It's nicely packaged, and the booklet is interesting and the dvd is a nice extra, love the starkers in tokyo performance of "love aint no stranger" and the donnington performance of "guilty of love". Going back to the cd, my only complaint would be that we were told it has the complete uk mix but It seems they didn't put the uk mix of "love ain no stranger" they have put the starkers version on the cd instead and I don't see the point as it is already on the dvd
