Released in mid 1980 in a dream year of Hard Rock / Heavy Metal (Saxon, Maiden, Priest, AC / DC, Scorpions, Ozzy, Sabbath, Lizzy etc), produced by veteran Martin Birch (Purple, Maiden), the album delivers everything WS the -heart desires.
Rock pieces with Charts / Live-skills like "Fool for Your Loving," "Sweet Talker" and the title track. Boogie Whoogie on "Black and Blue", heartfelt ballads like especially "Blindman" to name just a few numbers.
Can one well at a time when an album by listening, with 1-2 small hangers, still scarce worth 5 Stars.
It was the third album of the white snake and something like the commercial breakthrough.
The lyrics are, ..., well, Coverdale. But why not? He has in any case to tell a lot about love and women.
As a result, the already mentioned "Come on get it" which recordings from the years 1978 and 1980 (emphasis on "R aw") and appeared before the excellent live album "In the heart of the city" includes.
The old Deep Purple-stretching Ian Paice (drums) and Jon Lord (RIP) (org) were then boomed in David's band and the Hard Rock scene and made history. All Acts sounded different and for all there was room.
