Mention the name '
Whitesnake ' and everybody
automatically thinks of David
Coverdale! Nothing wrong with old
Dave, you understand, but two
other very important members of
this illustrious band also deserve
a mention, as well as heaps of
praise: Micky Moody and Bernie
Marsden, both excellent blues/rock
guitarists, were the backbone of
Whitesnake between 1978 and 1982.
Prior to being in the band, Moody
had been in Juicy Lucy and Snafu,
Marsden in Babe Ruth and UFO. When
Whitesnake dissolved, Moody went
on to work with Chris Farlowe and
Roger Chapman, Marsden with Alaska
and MGM. They formed the Moody
Marden band in 1992, playing some
really tasteful blues/rock. They
went down a storm in countries
like Norway, so much so that they
recruited Norwegian vocalist
Johhny Lande, who, if you didn't
know any better, you'd swear was a
young David Coverdale! They're
still around today, but they're
now known as "The Snakes", and, as
far as we know, they've released
one studio album and one stunning
live album. This band has the
potential to go places Whitesnake
should have gone. Look out for
them.
