It's a huge thank you from me to Deep Purple for the opportunity I was given over 40 years ago "As I said to Ritchie, you guys set me on an incredible journey that continues today and I couldn't have asked for better teachers. The University of Deep Purple was an extraordinary, amazing school to learn from. We can't wait to play these songs in concert!" The current lineup of Whitesnake, Coverdale, Reb Beach, Joel Hoekstra, Michael Devin, and Tommy Aldridge, has already revealed North American tour dates in support of the album and will soon announce dates for other parts of the world. - Check out the tracklistings and the tour dates here.
