Whitesnake: The Blues Album CLR Die Version auf Vinyl 2LP in remastered farbiger Auflage. Diese besondere Auflage wurde veröffentlicht in Deutschland im Verlag Rhino Records (2) am 19. Februar 2021.

Whitesnake celebrate the bluesy sound that inspired their multi-platinum career with a new collection. The Blues Album features remixed and remastered versions of the British band's finest blues-rock songs and marks the third and final edition of their Red, White and Blues Trilogy, a series of compilations arranged by musical theme that began last year with Love Songs (red) and The Rock Album (white). The Blues Album is released as a CD and double LP pressed on blue 180g vinyl. Like The Rock Album and Love Songs, all the tracks on The Blues Album have been re-recorded, remixed and remastered. Whitesnake singer-songwriter David Coverdale says the music reflects how blues artists like Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf and the Three Kings (Albert, B.B. and Freddie) have continually inspired him. In the album notes, he writes, "It's hard to put into words how deeply they have penetrated my soul. But "blues" is a beautiful word for me to describe the emotional expression..... Feelings, be it sadness, loneliness, emptiness.... but also those that express great joy, celebration and dance, sensuality and love!!!" The new compilation features a high quality mix of hits and deep tracks originally released between 1984 and 2011 on the six Whitesnake studio albums and Coverdale's solo album Into the Light. The Blues Album also features two of the band's most successful songs: "Slow An' Easy" from Whitesnake's 1984 US double-platinum album Slide It In, which became a mainstream rock hit in the US Top 20, and the hit single "Give Me All Your Love" from the band's 1987 album of the same name, which has gone eight times platinum in the US alone. Also included are selected Whitesnake tracks "Looking For Love," "Crying In The Rain" and "Steal Your Heart Away," which is available now. Restless Heart (1997), Good to Be Bad (2008) and Forevermore (2011) are represented on The Blues Album with several tracks ("Too Many Tears", "A Fool In Love" and "Steal Your Heart Away"). The collection also includes the studio recording of "If You Want Me", which was released as a bonus track on the 2006 live album Live...in the Shadows of the Blues. Coverdale's 2002 solo album Into the Light is represented by the track "River Song".
