5/5 You're on the right track!
  by Christopher A. Pelissier (Joppa, MD United States)
Hey, let me tell you - this Remastered CD is 100% better than the old cd. Disc 2 the DVD is very good with it's new material too. But, the CD is overwhelmingly better in it's REMASTERED form. Same goes for 1987 and Slip of the Tongue remasters. Way better!!!!!! If you're reading this you are ... on the right track to Coverdale Bliss. you'll certainly enjoy updating these Cd's or any one for that matter. I (love Whitesnake, particularly these 3 LP.s) bought all 3 and found out that they hit the motherload on these re-mixes. Must have if you are a fan like me, of these 3 LP.s, if not skip it and listen to something else.


5/5 Great Addition to Whitesnake Collection

Wonderful cd/dvd combo, music on the cd-some live, videos on the dvd, some not normally seen by most unless you are a devoted WS fan. Would recommend getting to anyone who loves WS!!!!

4/5 I Wanted to Give this 5 Stars!
  by ThrEaD NUGENT (Newport Beach, CA United States)
I love Slide it In and was stoked to see this release.....however a couple problems....why resequence the U.S. Version? What if Machine Head by Deep Purple was resequenced when it got the remaster treatment? Strange..also why leave off 2 songs from the UK version (Love Ain't No Stranger and Hungry for Love)then add a '97 acoustic Love Ain't No Stranger from Starkers...just doesn't fit...subsequently I had a buddy in Sweden send me the 2 missing tracks so I now have both versions complete...The great part is the b-side bonus track and the dvd..again w. Starkers footage but whatever...I'm a completist and this package fell short even though it still is incredible overall...the US Version really smokes and is interesting to hear the UK version and the differences....to me a totally different LP.....grab this cd no doubt but beware of the 'little' drawbacks.

5/5 Slide it in (Deluxe Edition) - Whitesnake

What a fantastic album. A beautiful package, superb bonus tracks and a gorgeous DVD. A great job done on the remix! An absolute "must have" for every Whitesnake fan!!

5/5 Whitesnake's Best Album!!!
  by James A. Calabrese (USA)
First let me just say that I think Whitesnake holds the record for most songs about "love". If the word "love" is not already in the song title, then their songs are about love or something in the love-making category (ie: Slide It In, Slow an Easy and Still of the Night). But that's OK, for me it's the music that counts.

Slide It In has always been my favorite WS album. This Deluxe Edition certainly did not change my mind. In fact, this remastered product is of outstanding sound quality and the songs are still great after 25 years. For many years, I never realized their was a UK version of this album. It's kind of cool to hear the UK versions of 8 of these songs. Apparently, they did not have UK versions of the Hungry for Love and Love Ain't No Stranger. If there were, then they are not included in this edition. The booklet includes interview with David Coverdale and I found very interesting. It explains why there were 2 versions.

The UK versions are good, certainly worthy of owning and "nice to have" but the US versions are better. Probably because this is the version I grew up with and am used to. Slide It In is considered WS' "transition" album. But OH BOY! what a transition. SII is more Rock oriented and was a lead-in to what catapulted WS into superstardom in the MTV days. Their 1987 self-titled album wouldn't have been as popular without Slide It In being the predecessor.

I don't mind that they changed the order of the US versions of the songs. In fact, it brings a new fresh feel. From what I understand, this is the order that David Coverdale originally wanted but of course, the record company moved the title track first and put the best 3 songs in front which most record labels do. Although the best songs are still in the first half, the later half are great as well. In fact, there is not one bad song on this 1984 classic.

The other bonus tracks are OK. Need Your Love So Bad is OK but I'm sure this was a song recorded during these 1984 sessions and just never made the cut. Nice to have but not an essential song.

You really get a nice complete edition with Disc 2. It's always cool to have the videos and think of the good-ole MTV days (when they actually played music videos around the clock) when watching them.

This is great addition to any hard-rock lover and certainly worthy of having in your collection.

I find myself buying more music cds of yesteryear than cds of today. Today's bands just don't measure up to the classic rock years of the 70s and 80s. So if you don't have this cd already, go ahead and buy it. It's worth the price. And to all you classic-rock lovers with kids, it'll be nice to introduce this classic to a new generation.

Finally! I have to give credit where credit is due. Cozy Powell you are missed. God Bless Ya!
