Whitesnake celebrates the blues sound that helped inspire its multi-platinum career on a new collection that features remixed and remastered versions of the groups best blues-rock songs. THE BLUES ALBUM is the third and final release in the bands Red, White and Blues Trilogy, a series of compilations organized by musical themes that began this year with Love Songs (red) and The Rock Album (white). Like The Rock Album and Love Songs, all the tracks on THE BLUES ALBUM have been revisited, remixed, and remastered.

Whitesnakes singer-songwriter David Coverdale says, the music reflects how blues artists like Muddy Waters, Howlin Wolf, and the three Kings (Albert, B.B. and Freddie) continue to inspire him. In the albums liner notes, he writes: Its hard to find the words to show how profoundly they connected with my soul. But blues to me is a beautiful word that describes emotional expression feelings, be it feelings of sadness, loneliness, emptiness but, also those that express great joy, celebration and dance, sexiness and Love!!!

The new compilation delivers a potent mix of hits and deep tracks that originally appeared between 1984 and 2011 on six Whitesnake studio albums and Coverdales solo album, Into the Light.

THE BLUES ALBUM showcases two of the bands biggest songs: Slow An Easy, a Top 20 Mainstream Rock hit in 1984 from Whitesnakes double-platinum album Slide It In, and the smash Give Me All Your Love from the bands 1987 self-titled album, which was certified 8x platinum. Other choice tracks from Whitesnake are also featured: Looking For Love and Crying In The Rain, and Steal Your Heart Away, which is available now.

Restless Heart (1997), Good to Be Bad (2008), and Forevermore (2011) are all represented on THE BLUES ALBUM by multiple tracks (Too Many Tears, A Fool In Love and Steal Your Heart Away). The collection also includes If You Want Me, a studio recording released in 2006 as a bonus track on the live album, Livein the Shadows of the Blues. Coverdale also taps his 2000 solo album, Into the Light, for River Song.
