David Coverdale doesn’t get half the recognition he deserves. He is one of the best rock vocalists ever. His vocals on slow & easy are out standing.

Pretty sure he's recognized as one of the top rock vocalists of all time. He was when Whitesnake were huge, that's for sure. There was no-one else close. One of my favourite all time vocals.

Never more humankind will have another David Coverdale. He has got the most powerful voice in History of Rock and at the same time most tricky- changing short and long distances, sudden stops, amazing emphasizing of words at the right time, giving all of his soul in the song. Simply, the best ever vocal in History of Hard Rock. No more another like him- 1000% sure. "Fool for Your Loving No More" epic and never surpassed by anybody.

[@briancunningham9037]

[@marknolde3541]

in general music went downhill after 1975.1977. The 80s were full of plastic people, disco, rap and hiphopshit, synthesizers where there should have been Big Hammond organs, drumcomputers in place of the imaginative schwungmeisters thar buld on old jazzmasters,vocals from 3rd ratenew wave idiots, and so on....... And thats just a part of it.

[@mikieknight6607]

@@marknolde3541 Your dead on about the shitty synths that replaced the analog keyboard and organ sounds. Hammonds, fender rhodes, these things are "timeless" where as those early synths practically scream 80s!! Some otherwise good albums of the time have gone back and replaced some of these horrible misjudgements with better sounds like Floyds Momentary Lapse album. Dave Gilmour said we were trying to embrace the technology of the times , the only problem was it was the 80s😄

Amazing vocals by Coverdale and guitar by Vai--what a combination!

[@spacejockey4746]

Just imagine Sykes playing on this. Vai is a great, no doubt, but Sykes style would destroy Vai''s contribution within this context. Sykes would energize this tune with his tone and attitude. Not to mention his style fits better than Vai. Missed opportunity due to mutual egos.

[@martino250570]

To be fair, Vai contributed very little to this album. The songs were written by Coverdale and Adrian Vandenberg. Vai came in to do overdubs and the odd solo after Vandenberg injured his hand. He then went on to tour the album with them. If you want to hear what Steve Vai’s take on the song is listen to the version in the link below after listening to this one. Then you’ll really hear Vai’s stamp on it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/g2XWf5ahnr9li5o

[@Nissardpertugiu]

For information the song was on Reading and willing (1980) ...its micky moody and Bernie madsen. Its not , american probably you are may believe a composition of the Slip of tongue album . Its a re recording. Like Crying in the rain and Here i go again were re recording from the saint and sinners album (1982) so Sykes and Steve had nothig to Do with the Song writing of the tune .
