Product Description
Coverdale / Page by Coverdale/Page
Amazon.com
Time may judge this the worst kind of Led Zep mimicry, but on first listen it generates real excitement. Never mind that Coverdale is a third-rate Robert Plant (particularly as a lyricist). It's enough that the drums do the Stegosaurus stomp, and Page is more in touch with his muse than at any time since Physical Graffiti. "Shake My Tree" is the standout. --Jeff Bateman

Every song is different. You can hear the style of each star individually, and at the same time you hear the combination, different than anything each has done by himself before. Probably the best illustration of this individual/combination is "Take Me for a Little While," an especially nice piece. This album is going to be a classic.

This unlikely collaboration is simply titled, Coverdale – Page. A pretty unimaginative title if there ever was one. But what the album contains is some good solid hard rock music that acts like a forgotten gem for both musicians. At the time of this albums release, Jimmy Page was apparently trying to egg on his former band mate Robert Plant into doing a new record. The ever grumpy Plant wasn’t having it. Well, that was until he heard about this album and proceeded to insult Coverdale for years to come and finally giving Page the time of day.
But the project was no loss by any means. The record has a great number of rocking songs that will please both camps. The opening track, Shake My Tree is without any doubt a song in the style of Led Zeppelin. It has Page’s song writing all over it. The rest of the album features a lot of enjoyable melody and a lot of heavy riffs. I personally enjoyed the heavy hitting Feeling Hot, a track that could have fit on any Whitesnake record in the mid ’80s. Take Me For a Little While was also quite enjoyable and found Pride And Joy to be one of the albums highlights.
The band as a whole do a great job with a lot of chemistry through out. Coverdale’s voice was still in great shape here and it really shows. He does a lot of what made him famous in the late ’80s. He doesn’t use too much of his low range and belts it out in a way that Robert Plant hasn’t been able to do since the early ’70s. I loved the rhythm section featuring Jorge Casas on bass and Denny Carmassi of Heart, Ted Nugent and Montrose on drums. These guys sounded great and clearly made the best of the material they were given. I thought their style and sound mixed well with Page’s and would have been great hearing them play together live.
The one gripe I have with this album is the lack of lead playing from Page. He certainly lets rip a few times on the album, but nothing like he use to in his hey day. His rhythm playing is certainly solid and as heavy as anything he’s ever released. But it would have been great to hear him play a guitar god just one more time.
Coverdale – Page is a very well produced album. The sound has a timeless clear sound and is a very professional attempt at a collaboration record. It is an unlikely duo but I think it worked out very well and hasn’t aged a day. It certainly has its share of great material and is worth picking up for fans of both musicians. It is a shame this group never continued and made a follow up album. There was a lot of potential here and it would have been fascinating to see what could have been.
The positives are - a bleedin' awsome sound, with Page's guitar blamming out heavy riffs and lethal folk figures (a la LZ III), backed by totally monolithic Bonzo-style drums and subterranean bass. Coverdale's voice is good, slightly richer and rounder than Plant's, but lacking a bit of his character.
The main negative is a lack of originality. You feel you have been hearing parts of Since I've Been Loving You, Kashmir, Custard Pie etc., without a real 'write home' song in there. Also the lyrics really are 'by the yard' blues, 'you done me wrong' cliches.
But, it DOES Sound awesome. Good for long journeys in the car.
IIke they both had fun on this . From the opening of shake my tree you know you your in for a treat those titanic riffs and that voice how can you go wrong ? My favourites especially shake my tree, take me for a little while, absolution blues and the riff monster that is whisper a prayer for the dying (maybe the albums kashmir) if this was a zep song would be hailed as a classic. If your a fan of DC or zep give this a go its worth it. I wished they had done more together however couple of years later we had the page and plant album which I also have but I actually think this just edges it .
Having read a number of articles about Coverdale in which the writers seem to be surprised about the depth of passion and feeling he can often bring to songs, I often wonder why this should be such a mystery. I suppose that a lot of people associate Whitesnake with the poodle permed power balladeers of the 80's, but if you listen to the earlier Whitesnake output such as "Ain't no love in the heart of the city" it really is apparent that in his early days of Whitesnake Coverdale was a bloody good blues rock singer. I mean let's face it Purple must have seen something in him.
