I probably would have been a Coverdale fan had I discovered Deep Purple BEFORE Whitesnake. Or even if I had been exposed to earlier Whitesnake more heavily.
As it is, my first taste of Whitesnake was "Still of the Night" and all that Led Zeppelin rip-off shit.
EDIT: I should note that I WAS exposed to Deep Purple before Whitesnake but not the Coverdale version. My Dad used to listen to "Machine Head" all the time. "Highway Star" is still one of my favorite songs of all time.

Go on Spotify and check out early Whitesnake or the latest records (I like
Good to Be Bad better than
Forevermore but both are very good).
Whitesnake of the 70's and 2000's is completely different than the John Kalodner money grab album of 1987.
