Whitesnake more than most rock bands would get a very significant percentage of women in the audience and those were the ones I'd hear the voices because from where I am on stage is a pretty good spot.
From David Coverdale
With all the highs and lows I've had in my life, I wouldn't change anything. So no, I don't, this is what I'm supposed to be doing.
With Whitesnake it would have been inappropriate for me to have played Deep Purple songs, although I did at the beginning because I didn't have enough Whitesnake songs.
The critics love to get out their knives and dine on Coverdale. But the worse the criticism gets, the more successful I become.
Hard rock may have faded from the media for a time, but I've always been able to make a living, if not in America, then in the rest of the world.
The audience will make you feel like a demigod. But when you leave the stage, get back to being human.
