Whitesnake's 'Made in Japan' live set drops in April


Pop-metal outfit to release 2011 'Loud Park' concert performance

Whitesnake - Made in Japan 2013
Whitesnake knows how to make a visual impact. Having Tawny Kitaen suggestively writhe all over David Coverdale’s car in those famous Whitesnake videos of the 1980s was a stroke of genius. Sex sells, and Coverdale and company rode those steamy MTV scenes all the way to the bank, where they made large - and I mean, large - deposits.

Unfortunately, she won’t be making an appearance in the new Whitesnake DVD/live CD package “Made in Japan” that’s due out April 23, courtesy of Frontiers Records, but Coverdale and company will be performing some of the strongest material of their career.

Available in several formats, including a deluxe 2 CD/DVD edition, Blu-ray and a standalone DVD, “Made in Japan” culls concert footage – shot in HD in 5.1 and stereo – from Whitesnake’s co-headlining set at the “Loud Park” Festival on Oct. 11, 2011 at Saitama Super Arena in Japan. At the time, Whitesnake was barnstorming the earth during their “Forevermore World Tour.”

Initially, the set was recorded solely for Japanese TV and future “Loud Park” promotions. However, after three songs were broadcasted on a “Loud Park” highlights program in Japan, there was a multitude of calls for Whitesnake to release the entire performance for the general public.

“Made in Japan” features a mix of tracks from Whitesnake’s most recent studio album, Forevermore, along with classics like “Is This Love,” “Still of the Night” and “Here I Go Again.” There is also a bonus CD with never-before-heard outtakes and acoustic versions of material from Forevermore recorded during soundchecks on the 2011 Japanese tour. Additional DVD content includes various band photo slideshows and fan-shot videos. For more information, visit www.whitesnake.com or www.frontiers.it.
