Flesh & Blood is #1 in Japan
On May 10, the day of its release, the new Whitesnake album Flesh & Blood landed on the #1 spot on the ORICON Daily Album Ranking in Japan. This is the general chart for all genres, not just “overseas music” or rock albums. It slipped down to #6 on May 11.
Thanks to Akemi Ono for the info.
Well done Whitesnake! & rightly so, I’ve had a listen to the album now & I reckon it’s pretty good. I accept this album for what it is in this day & age.
Screw gangsta rap & screw modern “R n’ B”. Flesh & Blood is full of rocks & it rolls, baby!.
Now pass me that bottle of bourbon & a clean glass, I’m about to turn the stereo volume waaaay up. 😎

May 14th, 2019 at 12:34Whether you like it or not sexy videos makes people go out and buy it. Having said that I did try shut up and kiss me phrase on my wife and I sended sleeping in the other room. Guys don’t try this at home!!!
May 14th, 2019 at 21:58I listened to the album yesterday. Powerful and good..
May 15th, 2019 at 16:12We’ll see you soon in Zagreb.
Cheers.
Deservedly so, its a fantastic LP. Key are the songs, 8 top quality compositions ….snd the other 5 ain’t too shabby either (to quote our glorious leader) :)!
May 15th, 2019 at 18:50Congratulations WS. Hope they will add DK to the World Tour. Had a listen and did not really do it for me though, perhaps I need to listen a few more times as with most good music.
May 16th, 2019 at 08:03Based on 1 full listen, I will likely play Flesh & Blood more often than Slip Of The Tongue,Good To Be Bad,& Forevermore combined. DC really needs to get past the,creepy “…Feel your body heat..” lyrics and heavy breathing,though.
May 17th, 2019 at 12:41And if you notice too the Japanese version of the album has 3 extra tracks making it 16! Now that is what you call a bonus. UK version 13.
