Whitesnake julkaisee 30-vuotisjuhlaboksin miljoonia myyneestä klassikkolevystään ”1987” lokakuussa. 4CD/DVD- boksi sisältää alkuperäisen remasteroidun albumin lisäksi harjoitus- ja demomateriaalia, livenauhoituksia sekä DVD:n jossa musiikkivideot ja live bootleg-raitoja. Myös normiversiot sekä digitaalinen julkaisu tulevat saataville.
Koko komeus saadaan kauppoihin 6.10.2017 Rhinon kautta. Metalliluolan arvion ”1987”-levystä saa lukuun linkistä.
David Coverdale kertoo myös Billboardille yhtyeen kirjoittavan parhaillaan materiaalia tulevalle uudelle studiolevylle, joka julkaistaan loppukeväästä 2018:
I’m actually very excited about it because it’s the first opportunity both Reb and Joel and I have actually had to sit down and write together. There’s a lot of what one would refer to as arena rock; Reb and I were talking the other night over dinner and he said, ’Man, there’s so many songs here that no matter where we play — Portugal or Brazil or Tokyo — they’re gonna get this hook. They’re gonna be punching the fuckin’ air and have a great night.’ And I went, ’Oh, absolutely — and more than usual,’ which is great. I can’t do throwaway shit. The only reason I’m doing this record are the songs are gonna be a great Whitesnake album for Whitesnake fans — and the band. It’s very exciting.
