On This Day 14 December

Hot. The music is hot. The boys aren't so bad, either.

1993 14 December On This Day Coverdale - Page tour begins in Japan
AUDIO: Saccharin (Coverdale/Page) Soundcloud

• 1993  Coverdale Page Tour - Tokyo, Japan at Nippon Budokan 

1993

Personnel on the Coverdale - Page tour: David Coverdale vocals, Guy Pratt bass, Brett Tuggle keyboards and Danny Carmassi drums.  Oh, and that guy on the guitar: Jimmy Page.

If you've been following this blog, you know I love the Coverdale - Page album.  The live shows a little less, because David Coverdale isn't my favorite frontman.  However, David Coverdale added a certain mature poignancy to the vocals that no other singer brought to Jimmy Page's guitar work, while at the same time diving in and mucking about in the bluesy grit of the music. The Coverdale - Page combination is almost indecent. 

For that alone, David Coverdale gets my respect. I still prefer Jimmy Page instrumentals, mind you, but I can happily listen to a lot of Coverdale - Page.
