Never loved them too much. I see them as a sort of degeneration of Deep Purple. "Ready an' Willing" and "Come an' Get It" are nonetheless two remarkable works. But they remain show-offs and over the top. The self-titled album from 1987 is one of the most garish albums of all time. I recently picked it up again after years, and I found it annoyingly unlistenable. And Coverdale, who thinks he’s the king of the fuckers, I have never been able to stand. He seems like a cross between the legendary Zanza and just any one of the Motley Crue.
