Covers of Whitesnake's 'Slide It In,' 'Slip of the Tongue' and 'Whitesnake'(Craft Recordings)

Whitesnake’s career took off in the '80s, and now the albums that helped launch the David Coverdale-fronted band to superstardom are set to be reissued on vinyl.

The band’s three mid-'80s albums — 1984’s Slide It In, 1987’s Whitesnake aka 1987 and 1989’s Slip of the Tongue — will be reissued on standard black vinyl on Sept. 18.

Each album will also get color vinyl variants. Whitesnake will get a gold black ice variant, Slide It In will be available as an onyx variant and Slip of the Tongue will be available as a crimson moon variant through CraftRecordings.com.

In addition, Whitesnake will be released on tan smoke vinyl via Walmart and limited-edition stone marble vinyl via Revolver. The album features the band's biggest hits — “Here I Go Again,” “Is This Love” and “Still of the Night."

All three vinyl reissues are available for preorder now.
