Watch Whitesnake: Live in the Still of the Night For Free

Simply Perfect

Nice effects though.

Best movie ever!

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Just a quick note that the Australia/New Zealand release DVD that I have (Liberation Music LIBDVD1041) is *not* censored - you can clearly hear the occasional F-word uttered by Coverdale. A couple of the reviews in the liner notes also contain that horrible, horrible word without anything obscuring the letters. :) I purchased this DVD after seeing the first track (Burn) on YouTube. Even though it's not a Whitesnake song it's a great example of how hard these guys rock. Knowing that audio quality suffers somewhat on YouTube I went out and bought the real thing the next day, along with their "Best Of" CD. I'm so glad I did.

This is an excellent representation of a Whitesnake concert. The one and only time I have seen Whitesnake live was New Year's Eve 1981 but this really brings back great memories.Only David Coverdale remains in the band from those heady days of my youth but, nonetheless, these guys still put on a show. If you ever get the chance to see Whitesnake live, I suggest you take - you will not regret it.My only complaint is that the powers that be decided to erase the sparse amounts of foul language and replace it with ... nothing! C'mon guys - I can't see too many 13 year olds rushing out to buy this. We're all (probably) adults! Leave it in there as part of the actual concert! DAVE

Hands down, this is my favorite concert DVD out of the many I have watched. I would say the best, but "best" is such a subjective term. This features, of course, David Coverdale as a prime example of sounding at least as good as he ever has, and quite possibly better. As for the rest of Whitesnake, I don't think he has ever assembled a better supporting cast. It has been previously been noted, quite accurately, that Doug Aldrich is given the lion's share of solos in this lineup. But Reb Beach definitely has his moments, and his brilliance does shine through more than once. Tommy Aldridge is a king in my book. What a drummer! I also think Marco Mendoza is the absolute best bass player around, at least in the style of bass he plays. I give this a 10 out of 10.However if it were possible I would deduct about 3/10 for the omission of 2 songs. I can't begin to understand why "Slow N' Easy' and "Slide It In" were left off of this. Truth be told, I could go the rest of my life without ever hearing "Bad Boys" again. The same can be said for "Take Me With You", although they worked that one up really well. But if you take those two away, you definitely have room for two more songs that I find indispensable. Yet these glaring omissions can't take away how marvelous this performance was. As a bonus, when you purchase this DVD, you get a bonus CD with about half of the show on it. I don't possess the words to describe how much i recommend this. I give this a 9.7 GOD bless David Coverdale!!!!

Whitesnake singer David Coverdale has received more than his share of criticism over the years for letting his band be a revolving door platform for talented musicians who come in for an album/tour, then ride off into the sunset only to be replaced on the next tour. Well I dare say that anyone who sees this performance by the 2004 Whitesnake lineup live in London will be thankful that Coverdale hand-picked this group for the tour and DVD. Lead Guitarist Doug Aldrich (fresh from his stint with Dio) shines on every riff and solo, combining technical skill with real heart and soul. Reb Beach (formerly of Winger) takes a back seat to Aldrich while capably handling the rhythm guitar duties here. Tommy Aldridge returns to remind us that he's still an 8-armed octopus on the drums, truly the master of the double-bass kick...and Coverdale himself can still go from a whisper to a scream with all the power, soul and technical accuracy you remember from 1987. He works harder than ever to prove that, at the age of 53, he's still one of hard rock's most dynamic front-men. The video and audio quality are superb here...a must see for any Whitesnake fan, Coverdale fan, Rock fan!
