There is a 'new' Whitesnake release on 19th October "Unzipped" Acoustic & Rarities the Super Deluxe edition has 5xCDs & DVD with a 5.1 mix - if its like the other Whitesnake surround mixes it'll just be the gentle 'ting' of HF reverb in the rear channels! Amazon.com has it at Around $56 whilst here in the UK the one site is about £60

It was the hard rocking sound of hits like “Still Of The Night” and “Give Me All Your Love Tonight” that brought Whitesnake worldwide, multi-platinum success. Even so, the band’s founder and lead singer, David Coverdale has never been a stranger to the occasional ballad, going back to his early days with Deep Purple on “Soldier Of Fortune” and, most famously, with Whitesnake on the 1987 #1 smash hit, “Here I Go Again.”

Unzipped mixes rare and unreleased versions of songs like “Summer Rain” and “Forevermore” from the band’s recent studio albums – Good To Be Bad (2008) and Forevermore (2011). Also included are songs like “Love Is Blind” from Coverdale’s solo album, and a previously unreleased song, “All The Time In The World.”

Unzipped: Super Deluxe Edition has even more of unreleased, unplugged recordings, including more performances from Coverdale’s 1997 tour with Vandenberg, plus several later shows featuring Coverdale and guitarist Doug Aldrich. Plus, more than two dozen of Coverdale’s unreleased, acoustic demos are also included in the collection.

A DVD completes Unzipped: Super Deluxe Edition with live, unplugged performances filmed around the world between 1997 and 2015, including a complete acoustic show recorded at the Cutting Room in New York in 2008. A highlight for U.S. fans will be the North American debut of the 1997 concert video, Starkers In Tokyo, which has been remixed in 5.1 and Stereo exclusively for this new collection. Additional bonus features include an interview with Coverdale and Vandenberg, bootleg videos, the “Love Is Blind” music video and a slideshow.
 
What is disappointing to me is that the studio songs are on a CD(1)...I almost always prefer studio to live performances...it's a shame they didn't attempt a 5.1 on those studio songs...and the rest of this set involves the same songs being performed at different locations live...not sure if I"m interested in this one...
