Whitesnake’s 1987 self-titled is one of my all time favorite albums. This video ranks the tracks along with giving a retrospective on the history of the band. Classic “glam nerd” Shades is back!

You should make more of these I love listening to people talk about their experiences with different albums

Back when I made the Boston video, I felt like I could see myself making videos like that about my favorite albums. And with this video, I see more potential in that being a recurring countdown/retrospective series for the channel.

This helped me to see Whitesnake in a whole new perspective than I ever had before. Best episode of a great docu-series coming soon

I bought the 1987 album in the UK the day it came out. I’m ashamed to say that I hated it immediately as it wasn’t the Whitesnake I knew and loved. I’ve warmed to it over the years though. The track listing on that first cassette I had was as follows 1. Still of the Night 2. Bad Boys 3. Give Me All Your Love 4. Looking for Love 5. Here I go Again (USA Remix)…the version that doesn’t have the slow keyboard intro. 6. Crying in the Rain 7. Is This Love 8. Don’t Turn Way 9. Straight For the Heart 10. Children of the Night. I never even heard the version of Here I Go Again that you have featured or You’re Gonna Break My Heart Again until years later when the Greatest Hits album was released in 1994. Where is the cassette now? Fuck knows. It disappeared over the years along with my 28 inch waistline. I wish I had them both back.
