Whitesnake are streaming audio of the classic Deep Purple track, “Lay Down Stay Down”, as a preview of their upcoming May 19 release, “The Purple Album.”
The tune follows the video for the project’s lead track, "Stormbringer", and “Burn.”
The group’s 12th album sees frontman David Coverdale re-recording classic songs from the Deep Purple’s Mark 3 and Mark 4 records he appeared on: “Burn” (1974), “Stormbringer” (1974) and “Come Taste The Band” (1975).
In addition to Coverdale, Whitesnake’s current lineup includes guitarists Reb Beach and Joel Hoekstra, bassist Michael Devin and drummer Tommy Aldridge.
