[jimmy5150ify]

Those harmonies!!!

[sweenykim]

Michael Anthony is the unsung vocal background of VH!

[jimmy5150ify]

@sweenykim he he

[AetroyayorteA]

@sweenykim he's sure the fuck unsung now.

[Labtec86]

its not in standard tuning. dave could never sing at standard key. this is an old tape recording and sped up a thats why alex's kit sounds so off, along wtih dave's voice... sounding like his balls havent dropped. its a deteriorated tape slightly sped up.

[TroublesBig]

love that energy

bring it back guys!

[mcquestion]

I had this on tape years ago. It inspired the hell out of me. I haven't heard this in years.

[JohnnyDeSimone93]

Woah....its in standard tuning....crazy!

[eddiehalenvan]

when van halen plays a song faster than normal, it last longer. how do they do it?????

[KOTHVETTE406]

@eddiehalenvan Improvisation.

[ScrapGoldBass]

@SuperBlackngold No-its VH!

[havasu1971]

It is Van Halen, it's just that the tempo is sped up a bit from the original, that's why it sounds a little funny.

[mgiuranna]

It was recorded at The Pasadena Civic Center right after they signed with warner Brothers. I have the Bootleg Album. It's called 'Die Laughing" and it is fuckin awesome! A bunch of first and second album stuff. The Greatest rock band ever...Can't wait to hear the new shit next year!!!!

[xsited1]

Awesome! This brings back some great memories. I wonder where this was recorded? I might have been in the audience.

[ssquicksilver]

If you think this is not Van Halen you are mistaken. It is most definitely Van Halen. Come on VH fans, clean your ears out.

[EVHguitarz]

this is not van halen.......but a good cover band

[VanHalenRocks100]

@EVHguitarz Well, you're wrong, but what gave you this conclusion?

[EVHguitarz]

@VanHalenRocks100 the drums dont sound right...not enough compression coming through and Alex has a very heavy bottom end...this sounds different

[VanHalenRocks100]

@EVHguitarz But if this is '77, then the recording might not have been so good, so that's why it might sound different. And maybe because the song was played at such a fast pace, then Alex might not have hit the drums as he might of if it was slower.

[Hunkola]

Always fascinates me that the most legendary rock bands had to have a dynamic showy singer competing with a virtuoso guitarist.......let the sparks fly and out came great music......Plant & Page, Tyler & Perry, Jagger & Richards, Mercury & May.......Roth & Halen were no different.

[stjames888]

@Hunkola I was watching Almost Famous last night and when Jason Lee said said it best: the frontman and the guitarist with mystique, all the best bands have that dynamic

[Hunkola]

@stjames888 -- Roth and Eddie were probably the greatest duo in rock.......Plant & Page, Tyler & Perry were great dues too........but they wrote a lot of bad songs as well........Dave and Eddie were incapable of writing a bad song --- they were just that fucking good

[5150III]

@Hunkola Did you just say Jimmy Page wrote a bad song? God damnit public opinion doesn't agree, nor do sales numbers.

[skullkap1]

Great to hear this! This is definitely VH.

[libomeraczanick]

this was played on Les Paul(or "destroyer")?...sound much better then played on those fancy 80's guitars!

[shinybald36]

the destroyer was a fancy 80's guitar

[cdnpbman11]

3:01 isnt evh its the guitarist from cover band, fair warning

and this definatly is van halen this isnt a cover

[199191]

?!?! what?

[LMAO0O0O0]

lol...this isnt Van Halen but good stuff...lol.

[matsellah]

That one shot of Eddie at 3:16, still creeps me out every time I see it.

Thank God, you came back from THAT, Eddie!

Thanks for posting this. Awesome.

[marked95128]

he does look a little tattered in that one. I think it was doctored on Photoshop. It looks like something the Enquirer magazine put together......

[tonifreakshow]

@matsellah That IS creepy!

[gobbler6]

Holy shitballs.  Thats when Eddie was the best.

Dunno what happened to him

[AlterGTR]

eddie kicks ass...

[VaiJedi]

Could you imagine seeing them live at this time, before they were signed?! Love it!

[ryantherocker74]

[zackvanhalen]
