I'll ask this here first so that I don't have to sign up for a Whitesnake forum if it's not necessary -- does anyone know in which city this picture was taken? A buddy of mine has this in a 2'x3' poster. We think it may be Cincinnati (either east or west of Downtown, with the band standing on the Kentucky side of the Ohio River, and Cincinnati in the background), but we're not sure. Even on the poster it is a bit too blurry to tell. Anyone know?

Well if it is Cincinnati...it definitely isn't west of downtown.  It would have to be on the eastern hills along the Ohio River.  But I don't have a clue if it is Cincy or not.

Its probably somewhere in California.

 

Man, the 80s were a terrible time for fashion.

I don't recognize the location...which, of course, doesn't mean a damn thing - I'd defer to ColDay and Grasscat and Monte on this - but I don't recognize it...

You probably don't even remember the 80s!

I don't recognize the backround as Cincy.

I like the way the band looks.

I like the band's look!

I'm guessing LA, as I think I see a palm tree between the guys on the right.

Looks like the Los Angeles area to me.

I can't believe I liked them in 7th grade.

 

As for the pic, it's too blurry but I would guess California as well.  That's where the whole hair scene came from.

Thank God.

Are you kidding!  The 80s were hot.  The early 90's, is a different story.

I would bet my coke spoon and mousse that that's LA.

Although we all know Cincinnati has a much higher coolness factor than LA.

Depends on what aspect of fashion you are talking about. Some of it was quite chic.

Do remember that Whitesnake was an English band that featured well-established musicians from Deep Purple, Thin Lizzy and Rainbow, not just a bunch of 18-year-old hacks on the Sunset Strip.

^Yeah but it's damn near impossible not to confuse them with Great White (like Bruce Nauman and Barnett Newman or Orson Wells and George Orwell)..I also remember as a kid I thought Janis Joplin must have been related to Scott Joplin (both musicians, after all), but then again I had a neighbor named Ryan who professed to be related to Nolan Ryan.

So, logically, they would arrange to be photographed in Northern Kentucky.

On tour.

Seriously?

 

 

^thats what I've heard, and everything matches, from the landscaping, the walking path, and the cop's uniform. 

Mt. Adams/Eden Park was a haven for hippies so it makes sense :]
