This was the 1985 concert guys, as I worked as guitar tech for both Ozzy and Whitsnake. There was no Rock in Rio in 1995.

Here is a song for you that features John Sykes on guitar while the rest of us look meekly on..

That dig by Coverdale starting at 36 seconds says alot....

[Xiolablu3]

@unbridledid It wasnt a dig, it was a joke/compliment. This is 1985, they were still mates at this time. I guess its English humour which if you are an American, you miss the point a bit?

[ludovicus777]

I realize how much better is the rest of the band comparing them to Coverdale's out-of-tune and damaged voice...

[Xiolablu3]

@ludovicus777 I am not the biggest Coverdal fan, but here its because he cant hear anyone else, as he says at the start 'Get some semblance of balance up hetre before I cut your throat!' to the sound man. You can forgive him if he cannot hear the band properly.

[BartSmith85]

@ludovicus777 That's why he thrown them out:-)
