Whitesnake - 'Slow An' Easy' (Look Back)

You keep on pushing, babe,
Like I've never known before
You know you drive me crazy, child,
An' I just want to see you on the floor
I want to superstitious woman
She got a superstitious mind

I can't see you, baby
I can't see you anymore, no more
You keep on loving me
Like I've never known before
I want to superstitious woman
With a superstitious, a superstitious mind, an' I don't mind, baby

My heart is beating faster, babe
It's beating like a big bass drum
You know you got me speeding, child
Faster than a bullet from a gun
You're a superstitious woman
An' I got a superstitious mind, an' I don't care

So take me down slow an' easy,
Make love to me slow an' easy
I know that hard luck an' trouble
Is coming my way,
So rock me 'til I'm burned to the bone,
Rock me 'til I'm burned to the bone

I don't care about, oh
I don't care about love, no more
The way you keep abusing me
Oh, I can't take no more
I want a woman
She got a superstitious mind

So take me down slow an' easy,
Make love to me slow an' easy
I know that hard luck an' trouble
Is coming my way,
So rock me 'til I'm burned to the bone,
Rock me 'til I'm burned to the bone,
Rock me 'til I'm burned

So take me down slow an' easy
Make love to me slow an' easy
Take me down slow an' easy,
Rock me 'til I'm burned to the bone

Take me down slow an' easy,
Make love to me slow an' easy
I know that hard luck an' trouble
Is coming my way
So rock me 'til I'm burned to the bone

So take me down slow an' easy
Make love to me slow an' easy
I know that hard luck an' trouble
Is coming my way
So rock me 'til I'm burned to the bone
Rock me 'til I'm burned to the bone
Rock me 'til I'm burned
To the bone

Το τραγούδι "Slow An' Easy" το πρωτακούσαμε στον δίσκο των Whitesnake "Slide It In" που κυκλοφόρησε στα ξεκινήματα του 1984. Σύνθεση και στίχοι του David Coverdale και του Micky Moody. Στην επετειακή έκδοση του δίσκου για τα 25 χρόνια (από την κυκλοφορία του) ο David Coverdale είχε πει:

«Slow & Easy was recorded at 4 in the morning in Munich after a serious night's partying...Most of the vocals is just a live 'jam' lyric I made up to inspire the band as we recorded...I played around with the lyric later to try and make some sense of it...»

Το εν λόγω μουσικό κομμάτι αποτελεί και μέρος της νέας συλλογής των Whitesnake υπό τον τίτλο "Greatest Hits 2022 - Revisited - Remixed - Remastered", της οποίας οι περισσότερες εκδόσεις κυκλοφορούν ήδη και οι υπόλοιπες θα "βγουν" τον επόμενο μήνα...

Δελτίο τύπου: «Whitesnake founder and lead singer David Coverdale had 16 tracks remixed and remastered for this collection.

He explains: “We’ve definitely expanded on the original Greatest Hits, took them all out of the sonic time capsule of the ’80s and ’90s, and brought them up to date, sound-wise … as always, we have the original albums for those who consider them holy relics.”

Keyboardist Derek Sherinian, who also appeared on Whitesnake’s recent Red, White and Blues trilogy, adds Hammond organ to more than half the songs on the collection. His scorching contributions can be heard on the #1 smash “Here I Go Again,” “Fool For Your Loving,” “You’re Gonna Break My Heart Again,” and more.

New performances by former Whitesnake guitarist Adrian Vandenberg can also be heard on “The Deeper The Love” and “Judgement Day” from the 1989 album, Slip of the Tongue. Along with those new additions, Coverdale also went back to the vault to unearth vintage performances by guitarist John Sykes that didn’t appear on the original recordings, including a solo on “Slide It In” and rhythm guitar on “Give Me All Your Love.”

Whitesnake Greatest Hits focuses extensively on three blockbuster albums the band released during the 1980s: 1984’s Slide It In (2x platinum), 1987’s Whitesnake (8x platinum), and 1989’s Slip of the Tongue (platinum). But the collection goes deeper with songs like “Sweet Lady Luck,” a b-side on the 12” single for “The Deeper The Love,” and “Forevermore,” the title track from the band’s 2011 album.

Whitesnake will embark upon a farewell tour in May with special guest, Europe. The first leg of “Whitesnake: The Farewell Tour” will start on May 10 in Dublin. Coverdale said: “I pray every day we can all make this happen & once again, share unforgettable evenings together & celebrate the amazing journey we have been on for almost 50 years!!!”»
