This is a cool song but I understand why it was left off the album. All the other tracks on "Slip of the Tongue" are better. But still a solid track. Remember back then tapes were still a big music medium so they had to cut many tracks from albums just for time. I think it is funny that now a days in music most people dont even know what a B-Side even is.
Though there are fans who hate the whole Vandenberg/Vai era, to me it's the best hard rock band I've ever heard. And I think this is the best Whitesnake song EVER. Unbelievable composition and even so unbelievable David didn't add this to Slip of the tongue. One thing I want to know for so long: did they ever play this awesome song live?
It's like a mix of Wings of the Storm with Slip of the Tongue, with a little bit of Cheap An' Nasty and Kittens Got Claws. In other words, it's awesome, as the whole album.
I think they didn't put it on because it sounded too much like "Cheap and Nasty" or "Kitten's Got Claws" ... Btw I just read "Cheap and Nasty" was Tawny's favorite track, back in the day
@Supernaut222 the first time i heard it my mp3 was on random and i didn't know who was playing it..didn't take me too much to come to exactly the same conclusion! :)
I need this one in my ipod

Vandenberg's composition, Vai's guitar. Adrian was injured so couldn't play on SOTT.

@TheHarperad I said the same thing. Maybe it was one of their unreleased tracks that didin't make it on the album.
sexymd07 1 year ago
@TheHarperad I think it was recorded at the same time, but was then released as a b-side (I think) and then on a best of called 'Greatest Hits' :)
