David Coverdale is calling it a career.
David posted a six-minute video, where he said his goodbyes and a new remix of "Fare Thee Well", which appeared on Whitesnake's “Forevermore”.
"Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, brothers and sisters of the Snake, special announcement for you. After 50 years plus of an incredible journey with you — with Deep Purple, with Whitesnake, with Jimmy Page — the last few years it's been really evident to me that it's time to hang up my rock and roll platform shoes and my skintight jeans. And as you can see, we've taken care of the lion's wig. But it's time for me to call it a day. I love you dearly. I thank everyone who's assisted and supported me on this incredible journey — all the musicians, the crew, the fans, the family. It's amazing, but it really is time for me to just enjoy my retirement. And I hope you can appreciate that."
Without question David Coverdale is one of the most iconic singers in the history of rock and his impact has spanned decades like few before or after him, so yet another great voice will be lost in this devastating 2025.
