New take on Soldier of Fortune
Whitesnake’s record label has released another promo video for their upcoming Purple Album. Soldier of Fortune manages to avoid the hair metal clichés and stay closer to the original:
Thanks to Blabbermouth for the info.
Unauthorized copying, while sometimes necessary, is never as good as the real thing
Rather nice .. Apart from the silly harmonics. 🙂 Still love DC’s voice .. when he’s not screeching.
May 5th, 2015 at 21:36Nice rendition. Better? No. New? Yes. Good guitar collaboration? Absolutely. David, you did a nice job though I don’t quite understand where your ‘low frequency’ tone went. If I were you, I would seek that out and give it more focus. But then, I ain’t you and you do a fine job either way…… Just sayin’.

May 5th, 2015 at 22:07With the previous 3 songs/videos,it seemed that,in his determination to discourage comparisons,DC lost sight of just how great the original songs were & are.This remake,however,feels like a true homage. Much more like it.
May 5th, 2015 at 23:28I pre-ordered the CD a few days ago and I am glad I did!! What a great version of this song!!
May 6th, 2015 at 12:27I don’t like the effect on the vocal. Seems a bit robot-like. Acoustic guitar is nice.
May 6th, 2015 at 13:33Like!
May 6th, 2015 at 15:54I really like this version. David singing this as an older man really works for me.
May 7th, 2015 at 05:49The only way this could have been improved would be if Ritchie had played on it.
Very nice, gentlemen.

May 7th, 2015 at 23:49Great version!
Original drums sound must be added..
