Coverdale / Whitesnake, over & out ....?

[cozyal]

Well, I guess it had to happen sooner or later, hopefully it’s soon enough for the guy …. So he gets some attention to try & put things right!

The worst fears about Coverdale’s voice are confirmed …, which the show that we saw in Detroit really bore witness to also …

He needs to rest his voice up seriously or risk losing it altogether!


www.classicrockmagazine.com has recently revealed things:

My review from the Detroit gig here:

Bloody shame, hope he doesn’t lose it altogether ….

Always loved W/S live, until recently ….

Cheers,

Al

According to a press release it seems that Coverdale is suffering with severe Vocal Fold Edema (whatever that is) & has a leison on his vocal chords. A doctor has advised Coverdale to pull out of the remainder of the Priest tour.

At least it should put to bed the mime stories.

You Tube clips ... He didn't sound too bad to start with, but when he gets to Slow & Easy, it's clearer he's struggling ...

Then he came back out to apologize.
At least he had the bottle to come out & apologize himself ... Others would have just sent someone else out to do their dirty work.
Good for him!
