Headed the Reading Festival in August 1979 [and 1980?] and the Donington in 1981 after which Whitesnake took a break for four weeks. After regaining powers, they went into the studio in October, did a short European tour in November and then split. The album Saints An' Sinners was actually furnished somewhat during September before final release; i.e. Moody and later newcomer Galley put on some extra backing vocals.
