This early part-Whitesnake, part David Coverdale solo-release is a solid mixture of rock and blues, much less flashy than Whitesnake's late-eighties pop metal outings, and with a lot more groove.
It is not Whitesnake's most remarkable album, and it is not an absolutely necessary purchase for Whitesnake fans, either, especially since the two best songs ("Come On" and "Ain't No Love In The Heart Of The City") can both be found in excellent versions on "Live...In The Heart Of The City".
But that's not to say the rest isn't worth a listen. There is nothing here to rival the original versions of "Love Hunter", "Here I Go Again" or "Fool For Your Loving", but songs like "Bloody Mary" and "Only My Soul" are sturdy, well-executed blues-rock numbers in their own right.
A good, although not essential, collection of songs.

Excellent cd highlighting the 1st days of the band Whitesnake with some solo tracks from Coverdale's 2nd solo album NORTHWINDS(1978)the album is pretty much redundant now as the opening 4 tracks(the original E.P.) are all now included on the remastered TROUBLE(1978) album.
Tracks 1-4 are the original E.P and are pretty good and a fair representation of what would follow,the highlight being the superb cover of 'Aint No Love In The Heart Of The City' while opening track 'Come On' would be a live favourite for several years.
Tracks 5-8 were all originally on NORTHWINDS(1978),Coverdale's superlative 2nd solo album,the best being the heavy rock class of 'Keep On Giving Me Love',a blueprint for future Whitesnake material and the stunning 'Only My Soul' possible the best track he ever recorded.
Probably one for completists now.

If you like Rock with a touch of Blues (Check out "Ain't no Love in Heart of the City"), this is for you. The best of Coverdale, giving a clear indication of Whitesnake's later musical stance ,before the late 80's corrupted their sound. Buy all Whitesnake albums up to "Saints and Sinners" (After that, long hair, sex and money distorted their music). Absolutely fantastic. Raw and Genuine. Rock at its best.
