you don't need to get sarcastic. I get it, a discussion about a band like Whitesnake is not worth it, I won't do it again...

Whitesnake and ZZ Top both saw their best days before their mid-1980s sellout albums that catapulted them in the Top 20 with "Legs" and "Here I Go Again."
Whitesnake devolved from a solid Purple-derived hard rock outfit, anchored by the late great Jon Lord, to an AquaNet & blow-dryer-fueled candyass band on par with Poison ...but still better than those guys! After all, Whitesnake at one time or another boasted John Sykes, Vivian Campbell and Steve Vai in the line-up. But Rudy Sarzo should have never, ever frosted his hair. LOL!
ZZ Top likewise took a few steps back when they streamlined their no-BS dusted down hard blues sound into a scruffy pop-blues-rock b*****dization of what had put them on the map. The omnipresent drum machine was so awful, too. They still had some good songs strewn across those albums Eliminator and Afterburner, though.
But ZZ started making good music again, while Coverdale is simply cashing checks by having his band ride the coattails of their glory days.

Don't laugh at other people making polls here. I'm sure you would not like someone laughing at yours.

There has been countless Spinal Taps in RīN`R (quite many also in prog). Many of them has anyway done great albums.
