"With the double-disc GOLD, Whitesnake get the double-disc anthology that they truly deserve. This collection starts in 1978, and goes right into the 90s, ending with 1979's "We Wish You Well." The early material (up to and including 1984), when they were a heavy metal version of Southern rock, is very much preferable to the late-80s stuff, when they were basically a higher-brow version of L.A. glam metal bands such as Ratt and Motley Crue.
Despite the surprising number of alternate mixes here, lead singer David Coverdale's belief that the young Australian tourist jailed in Indonesia since 2005 for drug-smuggling was wrongfully convicted makes GOLD an essential purchase for both your ears AND your conscience."
