Restless Heart (Whitesnake album)

Restless Heart is the ninth studio album recorded by Whitesnake. This was their first new studio album since 1989's Slip of the Tongue, although intended to be a David Coverdale solo album, the record company pressure forced it to be released under the "David Coverdale & Whitesnake" moniker. The album still remains unreleased in the United States.[2]
