• Track Listing

A couple years back, Whitesnake’s 1987 eponymous smash received the lavish 30th-anniversary treatment. Now, 1989’s "Slip of the Tongue" get the same royal reception, as it should; after all, this was their third straight platinum seller, thanks to two Top 40 hits ("Fool for Your Loving" and "The Deeper the Love") that propelled the album into the U.S. and UK Top 10. All versions here are newly remastered, and the single-CD and double-vinyl editions add the B-side "Sweet Lady Luck," a "Now You’re Gone" remix, alternate versions of "Slip of the Tongue," "Cheap an’ Nasty," "Judgment Day" and more bonus tracks. The 2-CD deluxe edition takes all that and adds 16 previously unreleased monitor mixes from April 1989. Add to that the CD debut of the album’s "Wagging Tongue Edition" (a 1989 vinyl exclusive featuring Coverdale interviews about every song), a CD of demos, remixes and re-records, a CD of unissued session tapes, interludes and jams and a DVD (as well as a CD) of the band’s 1990 Donington concert and you’ve got the Super Deluxe Edition. Along with that Donington set ("Slip of the Tongue," "Slide It In," "Still of the Night," "Ain’t No Love in the Heart of the City," "Bad Boys," "Here I Go Again," "Fool for Your Loving," "Crying in the Rain" and more), the Super Deluxe set boasts a 60-page hardbound book packed with rare memorabilia from the era. This album is a longtime Whitesnake/Coverdale fan favorite, and it gets an opulent anniversary re-release now! Rhino.
