Whitesnake - Ain't No Love In The Heart Of The City Live at Hammersmith 23rd November 1978

[@okgo8315]

Great song great gig. I was their sound engineer on that tour, that memorable night at Hammersmith Odeon and still have the recording from the mixer. A real goosebumps moment when the crowd sang LOUD, so David extended that part another 16 bars....magic.

[@ledzeppelin4195]

magic indeed..........

[@topsecret2389]

The double album is a combination of two concerts . Track list is nearly perfect . The line up was the best ever . I love it. One of my all time favourites. !

[@donna3465]

Martin Fisher You’re a lucky man.

[@davecarter1047]

It's almost like religious moment

[@RushfanUK]

The first time it happened was on the first night of the tour at Newcastle City Hall when the audience took over.

[@lawrencesantana7253]

Maybe no love in the heart of the city, but the bass is the heart of the song.

[@Innerspace100]

In rememberance of Bernie Mardsen. You and The Beast (his 1959 Les Paul) will not be forgotten by those of us who knows!

[@magistersteveperkins]

Hands down the best song WHITESNAKE ever recorded, and they recorded some of the best ever, and this is the best version they ever did.

[@juniorpontes4620]

Jonathan Douglas Lord 🎹😭 Ian Anderson Paice Bernard John Marsden Michael Joseph Moody Philip Neil Murray David Coverdale Simply The True White 🐍🎵🎼🎶🎹🎤🎸💪😎👊

[@epicuregarden1104]

It would be tragic for a band their best song to be a cover😂

[@michaelraih]

Sing for me London, sing !!! What a wonderful and powerful version of that song. Belongs to the soundtrack of my youth

[@TheNorthernMonkey]

Mine too…

[@dragan70dragan]

I had 12, when I got this cassette, now I have 43, and my opinion is exactly the same. This was the love at first hearing, and it will last 'till the end!

[@louieg8310]

dragan70dragan yes!

[@cosmicdredd4911]

Mid 50s now. A kid when this came out. Still goosebumps when I hear this.

[@CelticSaint]

I had the double album as a young teen and loved it so much. Rock on. 56 soon!

[@randallblakely3566]

from track to track, one of the most eminently satisfying live rock albums of all time......

[@janebaldwin8040]

nailed it . You know your shit.

[@louieg8310]

randall blakely definitely agree

[@barrydubeau171]

The original guitarists Bernie Marsden and Mickey Moody, this version of the band was the best.

[@janebaldwin8040]

Sooo right.

[@janebaldwin8040]

(Mr B).Would give one of my fingers to have seen the Moody, Marsden, lineup, but Lord, Powell and Galley didn't disappoint. Hammy Odeon , London.

[@justthetruth9246]

Jane Baldwin

[@rcdowdy]

Galley was great

[@laszlomaroti9829]

John Lord (R.I.P.) & Ian Paice not forget.

[@gradimirpetkovic4974]

This is the best Whitesnake line-up! :D

[@ivanadjurisic1794]

But when he says "sing for me, London, sing" is one of the most memorable r'n'r moments I remember since the first time I've heard this song on the radio 40 yrs ago

[@nebojsagrbic5593]

Radio Beograd 202? 🙂

[@chazelliott3416]

being there - this call out resonates

[@DrDeath26]

"Sing it beautiful..." Just love it when *David* sings that!!!

[@janebaldwin8040]

So right.

[@andreypolidor1986]

Yesssssssss

[@thorstenhenrich4473]

Eine meiner besten Rockbands.great Rockmusik.

[@Shunty52]

RIP Bernie Marsden, you've left us one hell of a legacy

[@thedean4431]

best voice i have ever heard

[@antoniodato9618]

My first acquisition. Superb album. Bought in 1984 and today its 40th year.

[@whytegroovin]

SIMPLY MY FAVORITE LIVE ALBUM , EVER !!!

[@davidwright1463]

Cornwall Colosseum, amazing show, my ears needed 3 days to recover

[@beatbox66pt]

One of my favourite live albuns ever!!!

[@herdyingfiance1130]

David "Sing for me, London, sing..." Coverdale / the audience & Bernie Marsden / Mickey Moody ... 2 duos which really works. At least in '78...

[@gradimirpetkovic4974]

I love this album!

[@angoethomsen2315]

Saw them live on their Lovehunter Tour, what a Band. Never forget.

[@michaelpickersgill5665]

A great introduction to this band when I was a young man. Top class. Saw them in Leeds not long after.

[@AlexAlexon3897]

My mate and I went to the Bournemouth show, 6.11.'78, because we were Purple fans and wanted to hear the DP Mk.3/4 tracks we'd read they played. This song, though, completely new to me, haunted me after the show, left a deep emotional impression. Might Just Take Your Life and Mistreated were of course great - and Trouble, Lie Down and co. too - but this sad song reminds me most of losing my rock'n'roll virginity.

[@jiimhoo]

God dam I'm old. And glad of it, because I've had a opportunity listen this awesome song for a long time now.

[@K.Straughan]

This album was huge back in the day!

[@samuelcurtissr.883]

if you didnt produce a tear hearing this you arent right. Thank you Mr Coverdale for everything from the deep purple to whitesnake pipes . God gave us all a gift with your talent.

[@Seansaighdeoir]

Haven't heard this for years probably since it came out. Beautiful song and very 'Free' like. Still holds up all these years later. That is quality.

[@fernandoschuindt1665]

that bass

[@janebaldwin8040]

Yes. As a wannabe metal bassist in the 80s Neil Murray opened my eyes. Loved John Deacon, Flea, but he was the best.

[@andrewroe9876]

Fernando Schuindt niell Murray

[@rumeos3133]

Absolutely fantastic BASS!!

[@andreypolidor1986]

David Coverdale and that bassist killed this

[@billyvillyx748]

Excelente Pieza.... De los pocos covers que superan al original... El Solo de guitarra final ejecutado por el Sr. marsden es un Orgasmo. JAMAS VOLVERA A CREARSE MUSICA ASI.

[@elianabazan1371]

billy villyx Asi es..

[@osvaldogarcia2317]

Totalmente de acuerdo, gran tema de una gran , enorme banda!!!! Y este tema es grandioso!!!!

[@SarahHamburg92]

This song is so beautiful, I cant even explain...sometimes I listen to it 10 times on repeat ❤

[@mrgpromms]

I was there when they recorded this. Fantastic live band

[@andyalder7910]

Who needs Whitesnake when you can have the Hammersmith Choir?

[@Retroscoop]

I think you're sitting upside down like Mork from Ork. It's the other way around of course...

[@donna3465]

I love this song.

[@topsecret2389]

You are not alone !!!

[@Mr7691]

I bought tjis LP when I was 14. Now I have almost 44 years and still hear him. This is one of the best rock albums ever recorded in living

[@hulk8150]

[@kjellesperas5132]

May the best live album ever in my opinion. SALUTE FROM NORWAY✊✊✊✊

[@marcadriaenssens2904]

[@danielcaudebec3397]

C'est avec cet album que j'ai connu le lendemain j'alla l'acheter ❤❤❤😊

[@angelalvarezguerrero5673]

Buenas noches hermanos

[@Patriciokalos]

Recuerdo esto, mucho después en los 80, escuchando radio, en esa época, cuando todos andaban con el Iglesias, el Cotugno y tantas otras grasadas.... en Argentina había un espacio de ROCK para volarnos la cabeza.

[@themanonthestairs2121]

Man, I was about 11 when I bought this album in a second hand record store - I'm 51 now. I still have it. Absolute classic. Dave's voice may be fucked now, but man did he live it. I'd go to see him again knowing he can't sing like that anymore but at least he does it live and doesn't mime like all the other metal and hard rock bands out there do now - ahem, Halford.

[@ericmontes9105]

Ese bajo. Por Dios

[@paulhudson563]

seen them on this tour in Liverpool. great live band

[@danielbastos9920]

Ouço WHITESNAKE desde 1980 e tenho até hoje em dia ,o mesmo tesão/prazer do início!!!Banda única,perfeita!!!

Ain't no love in the heart of the city, Ain't no love in the heart of town. Ain't no love, sure 'nuff is a pity, Ain't no love 'cos you ain't around. Baby, since you been around. Ain't no love in the heart of the city, Ain't no love in the heart of town. Ain't no love, sure 'nuff is a pity, child Ain't no love 'cos you ain't around. Every place that I go, Well, it seems so strange. Without you love, baby, baby, Things have changed. Now that you're gone Y'know the sun don't shine, From the city hall To the county line, that's why Ain't no love in the heart of the city, Ain't no love in the heart of town. Ain't no love, sure 'nuff is a pity, Ain't no love 'cos you ain't around. Every place that I go, Well, it seems so strange. Without you love, baby, baby, Things have changed. Now that you're gone Y'know the sun don't shine, From the city hall Woman, to the county line, an' that's why Ain't no love in the heart of the city, There ain't no love in the heart of town. There ain't no love, sure 'nuff is a pity, Ain't no love 'cos you ain't around. There ain't no love in the heart of the city, There ain't no love in the heart of town. Ain't no love, sure 'nuff is a pity, Ain't no love 'cos you ain't around, 'Cos you ain't around.

[@triclone123]

Damn good.

[@Lowgun5]

David Coverdale and Phil Mogg are the perfect British Rock Stars. They pulled it off even better than Robert Plant, in my opinion. Love this song.

[@robertoblanco1648]

SU MAJESTAD...SIR, DAVID COVERDALE...

[@franciscojavierastizblanco6389]

temazo

[@andreypolidor1986]

Never knew they were out since the 70s, they have a bad company meets toto meets frank marino and mahogany rush type of sound

[@CelticSaint]

@Mr7691 Exactly the same as me 14 and 44 (next tuesday!). Rock On!!

Do keep up. You're 56 in 1 month!

[@atlasking6110]

I saw them on this tour (not this show.)

[@vestel777]

I bought this album when it first came out but I have one HUGE ISSUE with the album. The issue I have is this isn’t the version of this song that was on My cassette whenever I bought it. My question is - How many versions of this song was recorded during this tour and how many versions were put on the same album??? Did they say - On the first 200 albums will have this version and the next 200 will have this version and the rest will get different versions of Ain’t No Love In The Heart Of The City.

[@abohsukampret]

Was this recorded with Lord & Paice already in the band?

[@JG-qc7ss]

It's a live album. Yes.

[@keithholmes9005]

[@theaxis2000]

Back before Coverdale turned them into a bunch of Journey wannabees

[@wiganfan3373]

+Larry Mccarty you mean when Coverdale prolonged his career for a few more years?, i like both eras

[@Innerspace100]

The 1987 album was actually great. But, what happened? He got rid of the band that created it. I mean... Sykes, Murray and Ainsley Dunbar of John Mayall and Frank Zappa fame... Instead, he got in a bunch of... well... you know...

[@wiganfan3373]

Tommy Aldridge was the only bestest one of them lot

[@ankihansen2489]

Bullshit, Whitesnake does not sound like Journey.

[@CB-xr1eg]

@@ankihansen2489 Well said Cranki.

[@Eustes]

aint to bad. it was very fun to listen to. But it dosent have shit on Bobby Blue Bland. I feel it in my soul when he sings it.
