 More "David Coverdale" than "Whitesnake" October 10, 2008
Matthew Schwarz (Bridgewater, nj United States)
Well, after getting the excellent "Good To Be Bad" this year, I got inspired to catch up on the Coverdale/Whitesnake albums I neglected and finally got this and Coverdale's "Into The Light".
The cover of this CD is credited to "David Coverdale & Whitesnake" and as another reviewer noted, it seems apparent that it was intended as a solo CD but maybe the record company was trying to cash in on the Whitesnake name (but, then, why not release it in America?). It doesn't really follow the shredding hair-metal style of late-80's Whitesnake, nor the crooning blues-based hard rock of earlier Whitesnake so much as the softer rock of his two late-70's solo albums - except, where his earlier solo work was infused with the funk and soul sounds of it's time, this one has more of the blues and white R&B soft-rock stylings of the late 90's, with a few Zeppelin-y touches (Coverdale's previous album was, after all, a collaboration with Jimmy Page). There are a few good rockers (I especially like "Crying", which has a middle section reminiscent of the one in "Still of the Night", and the slide-guitar infused "Woman Trouble Blues"), but they make up only about a third of the album.
Coverdale no longer has the beautiful crooning voice of the late 70's/early 80's (when I think he had one of the best voices in rock), but his singing here is closer to that than the screaming of his "hair-metal" era. The guitarist/co-songwriter on this is Adrian Vandenberg, who toured 2 albums and co-wrote the "Slip Of The Tongue" album, yet didn't appear on previous Whitesnake recordings (except one guitar solo). His playing is in a tasteful blues-rock style, rather than the shredding late 80's metal one might expect. There's no second guitarist, and (although there's a keyboard player in the credits) not much keys to be heard, which also makes it sound a bit different from Whitesnake.
All in all, this won't satisfy those looking for the metal side of Whitesnake, but should please Coverdale's fans who weren't happy with the hair-metal era of the band, while his solo album "Into The Light" has more in the vein of early Whitesnake.

This album takes me back to earlier whitesnake like slide it in or come and get it. it's just great simple rock but more bluesy and hard rock like before. Has great slow songs as well. Any fan
of Whitesnake would love this. The song Too Many Tears should've been a huge hit as well as the rocker woman trouble blues. I can't stop listening to it. get it now!
Coverdale back to his Solo Style: Not for Hair Metal Boneheads July 10, 2005

This cd should be credited to David Coverdale....It has more in common w/ his 1977 Northwinds and 1976 White Snake solo records than any Whitesnake records of the 70's or 80's. Restless Heart is a mature, passionate, honest, introspective, beautiful and sincere release by one of rocks greatest talents.
Don't Fade Away could be a Bryan Ferry song.....beautiful harmonies w. female singer....baby making music! All in the Name of Love has same vibe. Restless Heart is a 'hard song' but more like light rock...I have great appreciation for Adrian V. on this record....his style comes through, not the "keep up w/ the Vai's and Viv's" approach I saw in concert in '87....Very tasteful and emotional playing....Too Many Tears is stunningly beautiful.....
If you are a 70's Coverdale fan you'll love this record...If you are a sleezy 80's stripper-chasing-lip pout clown w/ highlighted hair you may want to go and do some research and move on at some point (ie. Coverdale was in a funky soulful Deep Purple, then went soulfully mellow on 2 criminally unknown solo LPs: who knew? you can close you mouth now:).
As a huge Coverdale fan that has all 16 of his studio releases Restless Heart is up there w. the best of them....check this record out..you'll be pleasantly surprised by it's depth and sophistication.
 This album... December 22, 2003

Sucks... being a die-hard fan is one thing, but being objective is what's needed here. If this album was so awesome, why not released in the U.S.? It's where the big money is made if this album goes anywhere.
