When Whitesnake hit it big in ║ │ │║ the late '80s with its power-pop/metal one-two ║ │ │║ punch, many new fans were unaware that earlier ║ │ │║ in the band's career, David Coverdale and co. ║ │ │║ were straight ahead, bluesy hard rockers, ║ │ │║ especially on their 1982 release, SAINTS & ║ │ │║ SINNERS. The album is best known amongst ║ │ │║ longtime Whitesnake fans as the one that ║ │ │║ features two songs that would be re-recorded and ║ │ │║ molded into melodic rockers for the band's 1987 ║ │ │║ U.S. commercial breakthrough, ║ │ │║ WHITESNAKE--"Crying in the Rain" and "Here I Go ║ │ │║ Again." Also included were such lesser-known ║ │ │║ highlights as "Young Blood," "Bloody Luxury," ║ │ │║ and "Rough An' Ready," making SAINTS & SINNERS ║ │ │║ one of the fiercest, most rocking albums of ║ │ │║ Whitesnake's career ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ This was the best album of the Coverdale's ║ │ │║ band,along side "Ready and Willing" and "Love ║ │ │║ Hunter",maked in the glorius heavy-blues ║ │ │║ tradition. "Saints & Sinners"is more heavier ║ │ │║ than others,with the band in his best ║ │ │║ form,play'n'rocks all. Absolutely,David ║ │ │║ Coverdale(of course),Bernie Marsden,Micky ║ │ │║ Moody,Jon Lord and Ian Paice was the very best ║ │ │║ formation of Whitesnake. And the best of all,in ║ │ │║ his style,in the world. And all they are in this ║ │ │║ fabulous,eternal rock'n'roll's milestone.Pure ║ │ │║ fire,fierece,and real power,so distant to ║ │ │║ comercial sound what come later. The TRUE SPIRIT ║ │ │║ from gems like "Here I go Again" and "Crying in ║ │ │║ the Rain" lives here,don┤t be fooled mates... ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ This cd kick's all the way thru! Jon Lord on ║ │ │║ keybords and the late great Cozy Powell on drums ║ │ │║ in the same band with one of rock's greatest ║ │ │║ singer's,make this a great hard rock album.If ║ │ │║ you have only heard the Whitesnake of the late ║ │ │║ 80's and 90's,give this release a try,it will ║ │ │║ not disapoint!! ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ What a difference a year makes. After releasing ║ │ │║ the thoroughly disappointing Come an' Get It, ║ │ │║ Whitesnake made up for it in spades with 1982's ║ │ │║ excellent Saints & Sinners, their best record ║ │ │║ yet. Perhaps it was the arrival of new guitarist ║ │ │║ Mel Galley (replacing founding member Bernie ║ │ │║ Marsden) which re-energized the band. The dull, ║ │ │║ midtempo numbers of recent years are largely ║ │ │║ gone, replaced by rowdy bursts of bluesy ║ │ │║ aggression like "Rough an' Ready," "Bloody ║ │ │║ Luxury," and the downright nasty "Young Blood." ║ │ │║ Coverdale also reaches new heights with the ║ │ │║ astounding heavy blues of "Crying in the Rain" ║ │ │║ (a lyrical relative to Elmore James' "The Sun Is ║ │ │║ Shining" if there ever was one) and the timeless ║ │ │║ power ballad "Here I go Again." Most Americans ║ │ │║ only came to know these songs when they were ║ │ │║ butchered into ridiculous power metal five years ║ │ │║ later, but for true Whitesnake fans, these ║ │ │║ original versions make Saints & Sinners well ║ │ │║ worth seeking out ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ saints & sinners - album credits ║ │ │║ Micky Moody Guitar, Vocals (Background) ║ │ │║ Neil Murray Bass ║ │ │║ Bryan New Assistant Engineer, Assistant ║ │ │║ Ian Paice Drums ║ │ │║ Guy Bidmead Engineer ║ │ │║ Steven Angel Mastering ║ │ │║ Virginia Turbett Photography ║ │ │║ Jon Lord Keyboards ║ │ │║ Bernie Marsden Guitar ║ │ │║ Martin Birch Producer, Engineer, Mixing ║ │ │║ David Coverdale Percussion, Piano, Vocals, ║ │ │║ Photography ║ │ │║ D.C.
