WHITESNAKE's new album, Good To Be Bad, has now entered charts in Europe in the following positions: Norway - #5, Germany - #6, UK - #7, Sweden - #10, Austria - #11, Switzerland - #15, Holland - #33, Italy - #57, France - #69.

There are several formats of Good To Be Bad available now via SPV/Steamhammer.

In addition to the gatefold vinyl (with one bonus live cut) and standard version, complete with poster, stickers, etc., the first pressing features a second disc of live material, culled from European festival appearances. It's not all the '80s MTV hits, but rather (as anyone who saw those shows already knows) a walk through David Coverdale's history, back to his days in DEEP PURPLE.

The 40-plus minutes consists of the following: 'Burn'/'Stormbringer', 'Give Me All Your Love Tonight', 'Walking In The Shadow Of The Blues', 'The Deeper The Love', 'Ready & Willing', 'Don't Break My Heart Again' and 'Take Me With You'.

'Ready To Rock' is included as a black and white live DVD bonus, lifted from their performance at Wacken, in 2006.

Whitesnake guitarist Doug Aldrich recently issued the band's updated tour schedule along with a brief message: "We are still hoping for a U.S. tour but it is up to the promoters to book us. Hope to see you all out on the road!"
