Album of the Day

Following the 8x platinum success of their eponymous album in 1987, Whitesnake returned two years later with its eighth studio set, SLIP OF THE TONGUE. At the time, the band included founder and lead singer David Coverdale, bassist Rudy Sarzo, drummer Tommy Aldridge, and guitarists Adrian Vandenberg and Steve Vai. The 1989 EMI release became the group’s third consecutive platinum record, peaking at number 10 on the U.K. and U.S. album charts thanks largely to its two Top 40 hits – “Fool For Your Loving” and “The Deeper The Love.” Three decades after its release, this fan favorite still rocks ferociously, and SLIP OF THE TONGUE is an ideal way to celebrate March Metal Madness.
