May 22, 2015, 8 years ago
The Lucky Strike Live Jam happens every Wednesday at 8:00pm at Lucky Strike Live on the corner of Hollywood Boulevard and Highland Boulevard in Hollywood, CA. On May 21st, vocalist Jeff Scott Soto (Soto, ex-Yngwie Malmsteen) and guitarist Joel Hoekstra (Whitenake) performed the Whitesnake classic "Here I Go Again". Fan-filmed video is available below.
Whitesnake have returned with their 12th studio album and tribute to David Coverdale's era in Deep Purple. The Purple Album is a re-imagination of classic songs from David Coverdale’s time as the lead singer for Deep Purple’s Mark 3 and Mark 4 studio albums. The album will be available in various configurations: a standard edition, a deluxe edition featuring two bonus tracks, four music videos and a Behind The Scenes featurette on the recording of the album, and in a double LP vinyl format. Plans are also underway for a special limited box set edition with memorabilia and merchandise. All details will be announced soon.
From the opening notes of the classic track “Burn”, to album closer “Stormbringer”, Whitesnake are back and better than ever. Songs like “Lady Double Dealer”, “Soldier Of Fortune” and “Sail Away” are given a new energy in the very capable hands of the current Whitesnake lineup featuring David Coverdale on vocals, Reb Beach and Joel Hoekstra on guitars, Michael Devin on bass, Tommy Aldridge on drums and recent addition, keyboardist/singer Michele Luppi. A video for the first single “Stormbringer” can be seen below.
