ellyssianI've mentioned before ~ particularly in regards to a drifter vs. a hobo ~ how David Coverdale covers his own material.
Crying In The Rain
from 1987's self-titled "breakthrough" album
is no exception.
That's right: Crying In The Rain
was released in 1981, on the same album where hoboes were hoboes and not drifters, Saints & Sinners
.
Two of the best tunes on the 1987 album are revisiting two of the best tunes from the 1981 album.
I don't see a problem with this.
This example is ~ I don't want to say more subtle, because the song isn't all that subtle in any case ~ but, well, it's a damn good southern blues rock tune. This performance, from 1983, features Deep Purple's Jon Lord on keys.
Even better, speaking of covering his own works, at the end, it segues briefly into Soldier Of Fortune (Album Version)
