Frontman of Whitesnake, David Coverdale was recently interviewed with AOL’s Noisecreep, in which he stated that he refuses to believe that people don’t purchase albums any more and only download illegally. He goes on to claim that he’s a huge fan of using itunes and Amazon.
In fact, apparently he’s such a big user of Amazon, that they recently sent him a hand-written letter to thank him for his business.
In other completely unrelated news, apparently Whitesnake‘s new album, Forevermore, sold around 12,000 copies in the United States in its first week. Hmm… Whitesnake sell 12,000 copies, frontman David Coverdale receives hand-written letter thanking him for his business. Coincidence? I’m thinking a certain someone just made a purchase of 12,000 albums from a certain band.
And in case you care about the debates between physical media vs digital, or legally downloading/buying vs illegally downloading, more information on the story can be found at Blabbermouth.
