Whoa, hold your horses! The reason Vandenberg was not credited on the "Whitesnake" album is that he did not play on it. John Sykes did. Vandenberg was hired for the tour and they went back and re-recorded the solo for "Here I Go Again" so he wouldn't look so stupid in the video pantamiming something that wasn't even him. He stayed on to write the songs for "Slip of the Tongue" but Steve Vai wound up playing on the record. He claims he had a wrist injury that prevented him from recording the album but it's rumored that they were able to get Vai so they did. I usually spend a little time researching my questions first to make sure I have it right.
