COMMENT         : Whitesnake returned in 2008 with Good To Be Bad, the band s 10th studio album and its first
in over a decade. Fans embraced the comeback, pushing the album into the Top 10 in the U.K.
and flocking to stops on the band s massive world tour. Today, album tracks like  Best Years
and  Summer Rain  have taken their place in the band s live repertoire alongside global hits
like  Here I Go Again  and  Still Of The Night.

Whitesnake explores the group s 2008 return with the upcoming retrospective, STILL GOOD TO BE BAD.
Due April 28th, a few days after the original album s 15th anniversary, the 4-CD/Blu-ray set has
two new versions of the original album (one remastered and the other remixed), a selection of rare
and unreleased studio and live recordings from the period, and video of electrifying live performances
from the Good To Be Bad world tour.

Whitesnake founder and lead singer David Coverdale played an integral role in making the new collection,
serving as its executive producer. In the set s liner notes, Coverdale traces the creative spark for
Good to Be Bad back to 2003 when he reconvened Whitesnake for a tour celebrating the band s 25th anniversary.

We went out for two months and came back nine months later, and I had a big smile on my face and
felt really energized.  I thought  Wow! I ve got thirty years of music here that I can go out and play,
and I don t have to promote a new record I can just have fun out there.

The anniversary ended, but the tour buses kept rolling as Whitesnake remained in demand on the road.
As a result, in 2006, the band released Live In The Shadow Of The Blues, a concert album that also
introduced four new studio recordings. Those songs raised fans  hopes for a new Whitesnake studio album,
the first since 1997 s Restless Heart.

In 2007, Coverdale, guitarists Doug Aldrich and Reb Beach, keyboardist Timothy Drury, bassist Uriah Duffy,
and drummer Chris Frazier began recording tracks for Whitesnake s 10th studio album, Good to Be Bad.
Celebrated by both fans and critics, the record was named  Album of the Year  at the 2008 Classic Rock Awards.

STILL GOOD TO BE BAD explores the creative process behind the record with 28 different mixes and alternate
versions of album tracks, all but one of them previously unreleased. High points include  If You Want Me,
backed by the Hook City Harlots and Horns and a version of  All For Love  that features a different guitar
solo by Aldrich. The collection also includes Evolutions, a disc that of unreleased audio that presents a
guide through the genesis of each song, from initial ideas with rough vocal melodies and riffs through to
finished demos and full band production versions.

The Blu-ray delivers a variety of Whitesnake video footage, including live tracks from the band s 2008
European tour, acoustic performances from the era, and an interview by Eddie Trunk. New songs like  Best Years,
A Fool In Love,  and  Can You Hear The Wind Blow  come to life in these incredible live performances. The
Blu-ray also features promo videos for  Ready To Rock  and  Lay Down Your Love.
