People involved
David Coverdale (vcl); Mel Galley (gtr); Jon Lord (kbr); Neil Murray (bss); Cozy Powell (drm); John Sykes (gtr).
Murray was asked to rejoin, which he did. Sykes had been asked to join on several occasions but always declined; eventually he accepted. The American management demanded a more taylored version of Slide It In for the US market; thus it was remixed with some additional overdubs by Sykes and Murray. February saw the beginning of a European tour; March saw Coverdale losing his voice and temporarily putting the tour on halt; April saw Galley break an arm so the rest had to finish the tour without him. On top of that, Lord left for a reunion of Deep Purple in April.
