With special guest Bernie Marsden. Celebrating 35 years of Whitesnake Whitesnake performing 'Fool for Your loving' on tour with Journey and Thunder at The Manchester Arena, Manchester, UK, 23rd May 2013.
@@threalismaradona9899 first off it wasn't a competition. Secondly: Doug Aldritch is a rock god. Not only can he shred, but his bluesy solos will make ya cry! Bernie Marsden is indeed a great player. I loved this performance
As soon as I saw Bernie walk on the stage, part of my youth came back. RIP Jon Lord, Cozy Powell and Mel Galley. Good luck Bernie, Mickey Moody, Neil Murray and John Sykes.
@@philjones6054 Yes he was also in Whitesnake, but I would argue that his fortunes have been greater than the others hence my omission of his name. The others were treated very badly by Coverdale.
@@euanelliott3613 The original Whitesnake was a superb band , Lovehunter and Trouble being their best albums in my opinion. You are right that David Coverdale shat on the boys, preferring the big hair glam band Whitesnake became. To be honest, I stopped following them from then on. The last gig of theirs I saw was Donnington 90. I met Bernie Marsden at a gig back in the early nineties while he was touring with the Marsden Moody band, and found him to be a perfect gentleman. Go Bernie.
@@abohsukampret I have no knowledge of Ian Paice being fired from Whitesnake. I know that Coverdale was unhappy with Bernie and Micky swapping jokes behind his back onstage while he was singing Ain't No Love... I doubt David would have been unhappy with Paiceys drumming, perhaps they both wanted a fresh challenge and that's why they split. Mel Galley was supposed to be in the original lineup according to DC, and Neil Murray was fired for a year because he played with his fingers rather than a pick.
Well, apparently, Coverdale didn't in the mid-1980s when he fired the British blues-based band and cashed in by replacing them with American poseur musicians. I am sure he made a lot of dollars but lost a lot of loyal fans and credibility. Admittedly, even before then, the songs had already become weaker and the album and song titles more cringe-worthy.
Bernie died at the age of 72..... I knew the bands where he had played... For more than 40 years, Whitesnake among others.... My nightclub is full of people in the other world. And Bernie is now one of them. Great guitarist, and always smiling. Don't lose it fool your smile. and always play, where you are.
Without Bernie Marsden there most likely wouldn’t be the Whitesnake everyone knows today. Many of post 1986 Whitesnake’s biggest hits were re-recorded songs from pre 1986 Whitesnake and co-written by Bernie Marsden.
@@stege9979 I’m sure and I love the music that they made together. Coverdale was MY GUY when it came to Deep Purple because he was the singer when I started really listening to them. He will always be my all time favorite lead singer. He was also a great songwriter on his own. There was just some connection between David and Bernie that I feel made them BOTH better.
For old school guitarists every note means something. They have fewer notes in their solos but they are anyway harder to play than the modern/80s shredding/showoffalltechniquesatonce solos. E.g. everyone can play Gilmours solos note by note but only Gilmour can play it with the correct feel. So yes it was good that Doug slowed down. Marsden is an amazing guitartist.
This is great. Bernie is a master of the British blues rock tradition. Sheer style and class. I remember when this became Whitesnake's first hit here in the States back in '80. The best Whitesnake work is those early albums up through the '87 album. Slide It In is probably the best overall.
It's great to see the genuine affection that Doug has for Bernie. And by the look on Bernie's face, he enjoyed being there. Wish I'd have seen it live.
OK, after nearly 40 years, I'm just discovering today that Bernie wrote and recorded this and Here I Go Again. I had no idea they were re-recorded for the later albums.
BM was such a likeable unassuming fellow...great old school rock musican...Lot of respect on that stage...Aldrich steps out in front which is automatic but then thinks...."shit, get back behind Bernie"...respect.
A crying shame David Coverdale forgot that, sometime around 1982 M3 plus the Purple 3 were Whitesnake for me.. Bernie Marsden Micky Moody Neil Murray Jon Lord Ian Paice David Coverdale after Saints & Sinners "David decided to make himself King of Whitesnake" - Bernie Marsden
Love bernies original solo on this track and his playing on countless others ,rock on in the afterlife brother you left a mark n this world for me at least 😀👍
Great to see Bernie. Remember Bernie and Micky Moody playing this in Leicester all those years back. WOWZA!! His face in the first verse is fab, clearly all came flooding back :)
Was at this concert and Whitesnake blew Journey away. My first time in the UK and not my last. Manchester is a awesome city with great people that made the show even more enjoyable.
Несмотря на любительское качество записи, это наверное самое душевное и эмоциональное исполнение этой песни. От Берни Марсдена исходило столько позитивной энергии, что хочется пересматривать это снова и снова.
Oh good grief, the man is a lot older, with all due respect,let's see you hit those notes,heck you probably can't..Hat's off to you David & Whitesnake keep it coming..There are still those of us out there who appreciate & love ya, sounds great!!
@blackcamelify depends if you like that next level or not I guess 😂. By the mid 80s I was sick of what metal became with the music, hair and clothes. They all looked and sounded the similar.
There's only one Marsden it's what I grew up with hearing❤️ each guitarist of this band brought there own style to the group they each capture a Moement in time they all make up white snake 🐍. And with out any of them the sound wouldn't be the same. And for David well a voice that will reach the edges of time long after we are dust . One of the best rock groups ever .
...love to see Bernie rock it still..but you have to give it up for Tommy..what an absolute legend..still going after it and still playing as good as ever!!💯💥👌🙏
0:30 One of the most touching moments of rock'n roll history to me, who lost my heart to the sound of theese two legends the very first time I heard them back in 1978. I was ten years old, and I knew instantly that this was music I'd be stuck with for the rest of my life. And I loved that thought:) I pray to god every night that they can sit down, have a beer and write some music again - and then go out and play it, as a stripped down Whitesnake-universe on smaller clubs - with Tommy Aldridge on drums. No drummer make Whitesnake sounds better than Tommy! Thank you for playing the soundtracks to my life David, Bernie and The Beast! It's a shame it couldn't be there that night! I guess it was out there somewhere on the road working for Joe Bonamassa. Bringing the snake legend on to new generations;) Thank you guys!
that sounds exactly like me , the first time i heard ACDC on Don Kirshners Rock concert on a saturday night hosted by douchbag Ted Nugent no less ! Had to be 78 or 79 , not sure . Nugent was a dick but chills went up my spine when Angus let er rip ! lol . Im interested in finding a copy of that show , could you imagine . . . dickweed GOP mouthpiece ted hosting first ACDC vids in North America ! Bon Scott was spot on and that lineup was at its peak . I ve heard rumours that Frank Zappa of all people had a influence before or after . Supposedly heard the band and let it be known to the powers that be this was gonna be huge . Man was a genius . Lets face it folks , the best ROCK band of ALL time , ACDC
joe guirey I totally agree! I love Whitesnake, but the first time I saw AC/DC - back in 79 - I was totally lost. But..... AC/DC without Bon, and now Mal and Phil, isn't the band I fell for. But hey... they're still going strong, so absolutely - the best rock n'roll band of all time!!
Still love the old stuff..first band i ever saw live. in birmingham 36 years ago. I was 16 and almosy missed the coach coming home getting my t shirt. Wonderful.memories thankyou whitesnake for enriching my youth.
Oh man, wish i could have been at this concert. How brilliant Bernie Marsden was there too. Such happy memories from the 1980s of seeing Whitesnake live.
My band supported Moody-Marsden in 1993. At the start of their set the bass player's rig wouldn't function so Mickey and Bernie started jamming. I wasn't watching at first and I assumed it was one of them, probably Bernie. When I looked and realised it was both of them weaving guitar lines together I was astonished! As a Whitesnake fan from 'Lovehunter' onwards those guys are absolute heroes of mine.
I can't believe I've never seen this. Great to hear Bernie. Doug Aldrich is a cool dude. Met him way back in the 90's when he was in Hurricane. Thought my date was going to run away with him, she was so smittened.
It’s always a pleasure to see ex band mates making guest appearances no matter what band it is or who the ex members are....especially when it’s whitesnake
Ain't No Love In The Heart of the City or "Come On" or "Break Down" or "Long Way From Home" or "Sweet Talker". Even "Give Me More Time." One of those songs should be played during the Flesh & Blood Tour with special guests Micky Moody and Bernie Marsden celebrating almost over 40 years of Whitesnake.
Long Live Bernie and the Beast (even if he didn't play it this time). So cool to see how happy Bernie is to be back up there playing his songs, he has that same smile he had back in the 70s/80s and the wink to the crowd, awesome!!
