The hair metal act "Whitesnake" was founded by David Coverdale. He, a white hetero, took it as a synonym for penis. Much more straight forward with its name was the black metal act "Penis".
I love all era’s of DC, from Purple to the blues rock era, to the 80’s pop metal days, and the last couple decades as well....but this is him at his absolute best. Sucks that this song and album are largely unknown....
Memories of listening to late night radio in the mid '80's. I was in my early 20's and was very much influenced by Coverdale as I was a singer in local bands.
There´s no better way to finish an album like Slip Of The Tongue than with this masterpiece. The whole album is like a rollercoaster with its ups and downs and this song is like the perfect song to close it. Steve Vai did an incredible job in this album but specially in this song.
