Into the Light: The Solo Albums is a compilation album by English hard rock band Whitesnake, showcasing the band's founder and singer-songwriter David Coverdale's solo works. The compilation includes selections from Coverdale's three solo albums: White Snake (1977), Northwinds (1978) and Into the Light (2000). The collection features "revisited, remixed and remastered" forms of previously released and unreleased material from the installment of these solo albums. The title of the compilation derives from Coverdale's third solo release, Into the Light. It was released via Rhino Records on 25 October 2024 and set to be released on 13 November in Japan.
Coverdale recorded White Snake and Northwinds after Deep Purple's dissolution in the 1976, before forming Whitesnake. Decades later, following the group's temporary hiatus, he resumed his solo career with Into the Light, exploring a more reflective and blues-influenced sound. Advanced technology was used to remix the albums, with tracks from White Snake and Northwinds separated into their multi-track stems using cutting-edge artificial intelligence software, while Into the Light was remixed digitally.
