Drop EVERYTHING And Listen (DEAL) Ep.1 (Coverdale/Page) 

i dropped my coffee to listen, now my favourite mug is broken and there's a huge spill on my floor, it's all your fault, art of guitar.

Still have my original CD and this song has always had a spot in a couple of my playlists. Whenever it pops on randomly around my house, people will always say, "whoa, what was that?"

I had a similar occurrence recently with Pride & Glory "Losin' Your Mind." Came out in '94 and I probably haven't heard it in 20+ years. Great song to turn up loud and just rock out.

I watch a bunch of the other guitar channels too, Paul Davids, Music is Win, Marty Music, and pretty much all the other heavy hitter channels, but I think I like your channel the best. You have a large variety of cool topics and content and you seem very personable. I feel like you're not on camera putting on a show, you talk to the camera like you're talking to me in the room and doesn't seem fake. Keep up the good work Mike.

My older brother bought that album back in the 90s, and i remember blasting the speakers while listening to " Shake my tree", thanks for the memories.

It was a badass album back in 90s when it came out, everysong was amazing specially "feeling hot"

Take Me For A Little While off the same album is an absolutely beautiful song with an amazing intro

Never forgot about this song! This is one of my favourite songs ever - I've come back to it every couple of years at the very least.

5:29 “Those hits made my day.” Subbed. 🖤

I saw Plant/Page on the Walking into Clarksdale tour and they opened with this song. It’s a banger!

I literally learned how to play guitar to that record. Bought it the same week I got my first guitar. Countless hours were spent figuring those songs out! Great stuff!!

Been watching you a while. I didn't realize I wasn't subscribed so I hit the button. You have quality content every time I watch. Your musical tastes are right up my alley 🤘🏻

i listened to the album back in 2008 ish and its really one of the best . love coverdale page together

Oh man this album rocks! Listened to it over and over back then

Love this Album. One of my favourite guitarists and Coverdale always rocks! 🤘😎🤘🎸

Your content is so unpredictable, enjoyable, and really great. Thanks

Loved this album back in the day!

Still listen to this album to this day. I remember buying it when it came out (on cassette). I always thought it didn't get remembered as well as it should have. Great album.

Man you’re totally right! 😂 I’d completely forgotten about it but knew exactly what it was on the opening riff. Great share!

That whole album is killer!

I bought this on cassette when it came out, still have it in my iTunes. Great and very underrated album.

I received this album as a demo disk many moons ago. I loved the album and I think I still have it somewhere.

I really like this cd, very solid songs. "It's over now" is so cool

I love the Saints Go Marching In reference (which is also the intro riff to Number of the Beast). Thanks for bringing back a great forgotten song!

What a great song. I always like that album.

@1:28 Ironically, that riff reminds me of Billy Squire's Lonely Is The Night.

If you want to hear a song with cool guitar, drums and vocals, listen to "Light In The Dark" by Revolution Saints. This lineup had Jack Blades on bass and Doug Aldrich on Guitar. Deen Castronovo on drums and lead vocals. The new lineup is Deen, Joel Hoekstra on guitar (gotta keep the Night Ranger vibe) and Jeff Pilson on bass.

There's a lot of things I love about this video, as much as I love the song itself. (Gonna use the word LOVE a lot.) I love how you dissect and analyze the music and the voice, highlighting the complexity of the parts. Most of all, I love how YOU love it and are so into it, consumed by it. There's passion all over this and it's so great to watch. I think I'm going to like this D.E.A.L. series!

I guess I do remember this song and your right, the ‘hits’ just keep on coming don’t they!

I bought this CD as soon as it came out and also went to the concert at the famous Budokan. This was Jimmy's return to the music scene after a long absence. So when Coverdale got to Page during introductions, the crowd went wild and gave him a five-minute standing ovation. I'll never forget the joy the audience poured out at him. IMHO, the album gets an A for effort and a B+ for quality. I did listen to it quite a bit.

I feel like David is not brought up enough as one of the greatest rock singers ever. He's amazing. Not only that, but his writing is amazing as well, both in melody and songs. He and Roger Daltrey, to me, are the quintessential rock vocalists.

I have this cd. I only knew take me for a little while. I’ll have to listen to the rest after hearing this. They’re both amazing. I trust the rest is.

Thank you so much for bringing up some gems from the best music era and genre ❤

I used to play "Over Now" off this album back in the day...I DID forget this album existed...

Love Shake my Tree. Another great cut from the same album is Pride And Joy..

In 93 I was 15 years old and in Atlanta, our local rock station 96 Rock was constantly playing this song and I believe there was one other single off of that album that got heavy rotation, if I remember correctly it opened up with a nice 12-string acoustic intro that was sort of a heavy ballad, I also have a recommendation, around the same time in 93 there was a band called Cry of love, and they had a song called peace pipe and I believe their second single was called, a new way, both were great songs that sounded like they could have been released in the 70s. I actually listen to the Coverdale page album on RU-vid again and the other two songs they played constantly were pride and joy and take me for a little while, I was looking for this on title and qobuz a while back but neither streaming service had the album, I'm not sure about Spotify but I wonder why this album is not available on those platforms, much like headless Cross by Black Sabbath isn't on any of the streaming services either.

Such an amazing album!

I picked this up on release. Great album. From what I remember, I thought Page approached Plant to do an album and Plant said no; so he got Coverdale instead. The reason I think this happened is because No Quarter came out right after. I definitely could be wrong though.

The real gem on that album was "Whisper a Prayer for the Dying."

Best aspect to this album was it made Robert Plant wake up to working with Page again

As soon as that opening riff hit, I was like "Oh yeah! I remember this song."

Love that shirt

I have the same guitar man and its amazing how a low budget guitar will sound that good!

My favourite, from the same album, is Prayer for the Dying.

I bought this album when I was in my 20s really great song thanks for the breakdown really cool thanks brings me back

That is my favorite Page solo, or project, he's done since Zep... & it's not even CLOSE. F'n GREAT album. Great opening song, as well. Coverdale still had his full range, while Plant sadly didn't. Just plain greatness.

First time listening to it. I wasn't sure at first but the song has some great riffs and rythems. I enjoyed it. Interesting new segment. I'll be watching for the next one.

This is a killer song

Denny Carmassi from Montrose/Heart on drums. Also I think it's Jimmy Page playing the harmonica.

awesome idea. keep em coming.

Actually it sounds like the singer to Nazareth who Axl sounds like. IMO. ❤ love your videos.

I cant believe ive never heard this song!

From the first time I heard him in Deep Purple, I said David Coverdale was a Robert Plant clone. Coverdale-Page happened because the fans wanted it. at that point, nobody could imagine that Plant and Page would come back together.

Had that album. The main single that was all over Mtv was Pride and Joy.

I still have to watch your barracuda again. That song is following me. It's on a freaking car commercial now. My dad had that page cd and a fringed brown laether jacket from the 70s he'd wear in public. ugh...he still wears that jacket. Damn i just had an image of kurt loder from mtv covering the news of this album.

Love this. Do "Switchblade Serenade"!

Great album 🤘👽🎸

Nice. Loved that record back in the day.

oh shit, I didn't know the Monday Night's Main Event was an actual song. Two awesome discoveries in this video.

Some of these comments are killer. Love the video tho and your channel. Thanks for the awesome content Mike x🥰🤩

family feud theme meets Emerson, Lake and Palmer Welcome Back My Friends

Forgot about this, probably because it's not on Spotify. I do have the CD stashed away, though. Underrated album for sure. My favorite track was always "Over Now", but this song is a banger too.... Good DEAL! 👍

7/4 is very hypnotic. I doubt I'll encounter many Deadheads on this channel but anyone who has heard a good Estimated Prophet knows what I mean.

The whole album is great. Check out Jimmy’s solo on don’t leave me this way. One of his best. Shake me tree was going to be on the next zep album.

I could be wrong because I’m the only one I know of who listens to this band but I can see some Midnight Oil appearing in one of these future videos.

This review was great. I am a big fan

That whole album was killer! So bummed when they took it off of Spotify😢

It was a bomb back then... Big guys comeback while everything started to grunge around... And reminded who is Papa here) whole album was amazing BTW, but opening song established plank right from start

I would love for u to look at Cardiacs : fiery gun hand ...crazy solo which someone described as a laser battle and great song to

Wow man thanks for the flashback ! I remember two more songs of this, the first single released, Pride and Joy and its Over Now. This was a dream come true for me at the time. Its funny but when I vsaw the album cover I thought it was Yoeld by Pearl Jam ...I think the cover was similar. Your way to young to remember this album !! Lol

I just listened to this album a couple of days ago. There's a pretty cool unreleased song called Saccharin they recorded that could have easily been on the album IMO.

I think Page said the opening riff was an old one he came up with that the other guys in Zep weren't into so it was forgotten.

Yep this one and Pride and Joy - Losin' Your Mind occupy the same shelf in my brain's media room. Speaking of David Coverdale - you ever hear the original version of Here I Go Again from 1981 or 82? Found the video on here the other day and it is seriously weird because its only slightly different, which that messes with your expections.

An enjoyable one off album that I do in fact forget about. Annoys me that I can't get it on Spotify.

Just a thought but poked around with the opening triplets a bit and I want to say that the first B is an open string pull off and the second B is 4th fret on the G. Although it's hard to see on most youtube videos if you watch Page play it live his right hand is moving too much to be playing it all on one string.

This whole album rips. It's a glimpse of future Zeppelin if Bonzo hadn't tragically died.

Slides it in. I see what you did there 😁

I definitely remember this tune And I definitely forgot this tune It’s very cool interesting and I wouldn’t attempt a cover of it

I just quit my job and left my family. Let's do this!

A little more than a little Billy Squire-ish :-).

Lucked out catching this so early! I hadn't heard this song in a long long time, glad to be reminded since it was an excellent collaboration. This was a hell of a time for new rock bands started by old rockers. Coverdale and Page got together, Dee Snider started Widowmaker, Neal Schon started Hardline, Randy Jackson from Zebra started China Rain, Stephen Pearcy and Freddie Koury started Arcade, and Graham Bonnet formed Blackthorne with Frankie Banali, Chuck Wright, and Bob Kulick.

I've always thought Coverdale Page sounded similar to the Aerosmith stuff from the same era, production wise. Turns out it was recorded at the same studio with some of the same engineers

I was holding my laptop, phone, headphones, and speakers when I opened this video. Now that I dropped them I have nothing to watch and listen to it on!!! - Sent from my Blackberry

I agree with , that sounded cool in the beginning but kind of got hard for me to get into in the middle. Yeah the solo needed to be a solo. Never was a favorite song for me and only heard it on the radio, never wanted to get the album. Probably had some good songs on it. I may never know.🤔

My parents are coming to visit me this weekend. They are staying one night in Astoria, Oregon (where The Goonies was filmed) and my dad is giving me his Telecaster shaped object. Weird that you're wearing a The Goonies shirt and holding a tele...

Kinda reminds me of slow and easy white snake some of those hits

Reverse reverb/echo ala Let My Love Open The Door.

Oh, man. I bought that record when it came out. I don't know anybody who owns it.

Page/Coverdale ❤❤❤❤

I remember this back in the day ..i thought it was Whitesnake..your a young man im surprised you have heard it

Great song! And if you like this you should the good to be bad/forevermore albums by Whitesnake

Coverdale doesn't sound like Plant at all. Much more distortion in the voice and sharper, you can immediately recognize that it is Coverdale.

Cool idea for a series!🙂

Nobodies fsult but mine vibes for sure!

This album came out to much criticism but as a life long Pagey fan, I loved it!

Coverdale was in Deep Purple before Whitesnake

COVERDALE PAGE oooooohhhh they seem to be on Spotify. Waitin' on You is also an amazing song.

I think it sounds like Zepplin, because the notes sound very similar to Nobodys Fault But Mine.

Feels likes a 92KQRS vibe

But wait, Whitesnake IS a Led Zeppelin tribute band. That's why they are so great! Just, Zeppeling with an 80s touch, that's all.
