Still raw, heavy and fresh more than 40 years later.
This sounds incredible in the headsets. That early bass tone is so underrated. Mikey can really play. He’s not JPJ or Geddy Lee, but the man can play that thing. Sad how Ed shafted him.
That's how they conquered. Every band member was at the top of their game. The impression Mikey made on Eddie and Alex when he was in 'Snake' had to be pretty damned good for the Van Halen brothers to ask him to be in their band.
Mike is a badass
I use to think the same thing about what the brothers did to Mike. But if you look at the relationship Ed and his son had it was a no brainer. That shit is once in a lifetime for a father and son to tour and make music together and it's good they did because they will unfortunately never have the opportunity to do it again. Not to mention as we have found out, Wolfie is an amazing musician in his own right
@Joe Smith exactly. I never blamed Ed. I see how ppl were mad but now we know what was going on. Ed's throat cancer was always threatening to come back. Ppl that give him crap for bringing in Wolfie especially now need to reevaluate that opinion. He got quality time with his son on that stage. He sacrificed his life for the music. He can do what he wants.
Eddie didn’t seem to understand that Mikes singing was a crucial element to that SoCal sunshine harmony they had in their backup vocals
It always amazes me how the brothers are almost like another rhythm section all unto themselves. So much of their playing is tightly interlaced and so perfectly in synch. A once in a generation band without a doubt.
eddie rewrote the guitar. tapping, harmonics, and the whammy at a level never heard before, and he integrated them all seamlessly within the context of a song, he never did tricks just to do tricks, the "tricks" were always musical and had a purpose within the music. guitar players everywhere were like, "how did he do that?" i remember the first time i saw them, eddie was doing some dive bombs and whammy harmonics that defied logic, and *always* pitch perfect within the melody and key, i mean, people did this stuff but it was like, "watch this trick", and that's all it was, just a trick that didn't have anything to do with the song or music.... eddie was playing the guitar how most of us fantasize about playing it.
^ all of this
And it was simply what he did
The effects he used were so integrated also.
👍🏻 well said. I believe the things he does are called fillers.
@@johnbaxter533 thats whats so crazy about it. He was just letting his fingers move and he rewrote rock guitar
.
I’m 29 years old. I feel robbed I never got to see these guys live from ‘78-95. These tapes are gold
I don’t mean to rub it in, but the 80s was an awesome time to be alive. I went to thousands of metal shows local and National. It seemed like everyone played in a band. We had keggers practically every weekend. And best of all, no cell phones. 😊
I got to see them once in Hampton Colosseum in Virginia, 1980. Sadly, the venue was solid concrete inside, and the volume was so loud everything blended together into an un-listenable mess. But David Lee Roth flew over my head on his surfboard, so at least I have that memory.
What a treasure. These guys are playing with the same gusto as they would for a packed house.
They were the best American rock band ever in my opinion
I remember when their album came out... Confused the shit out of every guitar player in my high school 🤘🏻. Thank goodness I was a drummer, Peart did the same to us two years previous...
I thought he played a synth on the ending of eruption back in 78 when first heard it! LOL
It's no wonder music pretty much sucks today.
How do you follow that ! !
put on some lil wayne. keep it rael!
Raw emotional kick ass old marshall put together axe lol with decent pup and some very talented fingers killer tunes .One of the greatest American bands ever. Drama and all.. Mikey Wolfie David Sammy Alex and the almighty Edward... and those in between. There wont be another that's for sure...Long Live Van Halen......
Was 10 yrs old cranking this through giant headphones sizzling a doober🔥🔥🔥 brain washed and melted!!!!!!
So fucking killer. Nothing needs to be said about Eddie but Michael and Alex are right in the pocket. One of the greatest rhythm sections in rock history
And all with a smile...keeps everyone young 👍👍👍
Thats called taking rehearsals seriously.
Eddie was shockingly original ... Like Jimi Hendrix and Chuck Berry before him , his playing has been such an influence in rock n roll and copied so much it all gets a bit misty and generic so many years on - no one played like E V H back then though - Most still dont even come close after more than 40 years
Billy Pezzack Guitar lessons So true.
Lonnie Mack bridged the gap between Chuck Berry and the blues rock players of the 60s. He was a true original
And the fact he could keep in tune despite the dive bombs!! Jimi couldn't do that.
I’m 51 years old and this is where I go in my spare time. This is historic and awesome! I hardly consider myself a loser in fact all that can appreciate this makes us superior?
We can actually hear the bass in this mix. A first for me
The next time you see some idiot on the internet say the Edward played the bass on the album, put this up under their stupid comment!
yeah, I love this mix too.
Only down part of their career sound was the bass was on 4.
DAMN!!! I just went to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC and saw Eddies 1978 touring rig and to think that this could be the same equipment that’s being used in this recording.
I’m totally Awestruck.
Well it isn't. They're all replica's.
@@narvul and you're a clone . . .
Shows what an amazing Rhythm player Eddie was !!
Eddie is spot on! The clean articulation of the notes and chords...fuck!
Being a bass player who's kind of busy, I love a rhythm guitarist that accents the groove. I would love to jam with Eddie!
Michael Anthony though very under rated is a fucking groove tank with a high pitch frequency canon..lol
He filled up a lot of space like Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page and Tony Iommi did - when you're in a one guitar band, that's generally a necessity.
Even in one year from 76 to 77 he took it to another level.
Yeah, different player.
pretty cool VooDoo Queen was the very early version of Mean Street back in '77 ...Eddie was just brilliant.
Most of the songs on the first 5 albums did exist before the first one!!! Killer band.
That sounds like good friends having a great time 😊
Hurting so bad right now. RIP the greatest of all time.
Unreal playing ..... rightly, Eddie's soloing and riffing get the headlines, but his rhythm playing was astonishing....how old was he here, 20?
22
to use a baseball term- Ed was a 5 tool player-which means he has all the skills
These guys really were incredible early on. Full on game changing and absolutely super-mega ahead of their time, like Rush and AC\DC were.
Not so much starting around 5 years in though, IMO. Kind of a bummer. At least we have that early stuff, and they did an album a year which was crazy!. A lot of bands did that back in the day, I really don't know how they did it with touring and everything else but good on em, and good FOR us.
It became the Eddie show. Relegating Mike to a hired gun and building his own studio killed this band. When they were hungry and making music in weeks at Sunset Sound, that was their best output. By far
@@Iknowthelaw13
Nice. 😎
Best live version of Ain’t Talkin’ Bout Love I’ve heard yet.
Love Eddie's rhythm playing.
Oh my gawd... I just had an EARgasm!!! Is VooDdoo Queen an early version of Mean Streets?
Indeed
Wow! Back in the 80's A friend of my mother gave me a bunch of original flyers from the shows at Pasadena Civic when it was $2.50 at the door to get in. I still have them!
Those will be worth $$ when EVH passes away
....you know you’re semi-good-lookin’.... I always loved this funny lyric- one of my favorites!
Ain’t Talking’ bout love....
Ha Ha! me and my bros always sing that bit and laugh! only Dave eh? lmao
Van Halen on fire 🔥👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇
King Eddie ripping it up - as he always does - still nobody better in anyway, shape or form !!!
VooDoo Queen... Most of that became Mean Streets off of the Fair Warning album.
Doesn't get any better!
So raw and dirty, untouched by production. Can you imagine the sounds coming out of Alex and Eddie’s bedroom when they were kids, amazing stuff. I like both Roth and Hagar, but let’s just admit it we all love Van Halen for that pounding bass, those tight drums and that kick ass guitar, real musicians . Thanks for the music fellas.
This is a gem!
Never mind that guitar player just listen to how tight Alex and Michael Anthony are! thats some hot shit right there.
This is GOLD.
R.I.P. Eddie this one really hit me
The sound was amazing...never can understand how Eddie hated it.
That was one hell of a Marshall bro
Maybe he was always changing his tone, not because he was searching for the perfect sound, but because the longer he played with a particular sound, the closer people would get to emulating it and he didn't want to sound the same as anyone else.
what happenned was he sent his amp to someone so they could attempt to build him another one, and in the process, the guy performed simple things, like replace socket, thin wire with thicker, changed out of spec parts ect, when eddie got it back, it wasnt the same. he tried to get his amp duplicated. no noone gets it. i found his tone. and i aint telln.
Wish they had film of this!
The Master Edward Van Halen
Love this raw stuff!
Absolutely incredible. Listen to that guitar tone (not to mention the playing) I have this recording. Stellar!
Voodoo Queen in 1977 became Mean Street in 1981. Amazing.
So clean and original. Then copied by all! Thanks for posting!
Un fucking believable !!! I love this version of "ain't talking bout love"!
They were so ready.
Just love this ….What a check !!!!
This is great. I like how you can hear the engineer pushing the gains on the console.
Throw your radio on!!! I'll appear right there!! An early opener!! THE MIGHTY VAN HALEN!! THANKS ED!! PEACE
Damn!!! Alex, Eddie, Michael....holy fudge!! Mean Streets in 1977?!
Did anyone notice Mike play the bass line from Montrose’s “Rock Candy” near the beginning of “Ain’t Talkin’ ‘Bout Love”?
Yes... at 7:18 min
Eddie Watson they all where playing rock candy. Lol
I think I heard Dave scream Sammy right after Rock Candy
Makes me wonder if Sammy was at soundcheck and they were acknowledging him.
I saw live them during this time period as they were touring with Journey and Montrose.. This COULD be a recording from a soundcheck. At one point, it sounded like they were isolating sub-groups and checking levels.. that would also explain why there were no vocals at first. In a live setting, they would bring all the instruments up first, then add vocals to the mix.
First track instrumental On Fire. Damn what rhythm . Love how he incorporates the dive bombs on the chorus part .
So great to hear Mean Street when it was still Voodoo Queen. These guys rehearsed like they were playing in front of a stadium crowd.
It was at the Pasadena Convention Center not in a garage.
Mozart of our day....he will be remembered 300 years from now...me? I will be “dust in the wind”...
😪R.I.P! Eddie! Girls wanted you & guys wanted to be you!
✌😎💨🎸🎶💖
Classic stuff!!!
FKN Awesome, still stacks up today.
So friggin great!
When in the studio, I wonder what the "screaming matches", between Edward and Templeman were about......
Mike's backup on On Fire is amazing. Cracked wine glasses for sure.
Damn these guys were good!!!!!!!!!
Hell yeah!! Thanks for the upload!!
Great band for the time...Eddie was sharp, good meter In his playing.
Great band for ALL TIME. No band today even comes close to touching them.
For Mike not being able to play bass according to Eddie. Somebody is groving the living shit out of that bass. I wonder who....
Right. Also listen to isolated bass track from Hot For Teacher if you can find it. Michael kills
eddie just gets crazier as he gets older. When I read very early interviews, he complained about "rock stars" and their attitudes. As the internet reveals, the guy was always a bitter drunk who actually said a lot of shit about a lot of people. Then he blamed it on journalists. hes a weirdo. BUT...I love his first 6 albums. I couldn't care less about what he's like personally
Not to mention half of the VH sound is Mike's high harmonies on the vox! That's why they don't sound the same today. It's missing that big part!!! For example 8:11
Thats some Flumpy McFlumperson bass playing right there. He was lucky he had good back up vocals and stage presence.
@@stevehogsett8121 huh??
GOLD.
Wow!!! Stunning
🤘🎸🔊- please reload this LOUDER thanks for sharing hope you are well God loves you deeply Shalom 🏞️⛰️🏔️🎉✨🎆🎊🎇🎈✝️🐕🕊️❤️
I love hearing this it feels like being at Band practice ya haha
Here, they were already better than 95% of the bands out there!
All 4 of them were definitely on fire
EPICNESS !!! 🤘🏻
They are all under rated. Musicianship, stage presence, etc,etc,
Not exactly underrated, dude - Van Halen were one of the biggest rock bands in the world from 1978 to 1984, and Eddie was almost unanimously considered to be the best guitarist in rock.
Damn, these kids can play :)
KINGS!!! dave at his best!
His playing changed so much since the Simmons demos only a year(?) before. No whammy back then.
R.i.p Eddie VanHalen Biggest Lost since Jimi Hendrix.
DAMN DAMN DAAAAAAAMN! REAL MUSIC BY REAL MUSICIANS.
The guitar as an instrument and its entire vocabulary was re-invented by the genius of Eddie Van Halen
Love you Eddie! R. I. P.
this garage band will never make it haha
For your information, troll boy, this "garage band" went on to sell over 1000 albums.
@@CS-mo7xp didnt you get that my coment was ironic?
@@LucasCampagnolo No.
C S5 Wow, so obvious his comment was tongue in cheek.
C S5 1000 albums??? 😂
Interesting Dave yell's" Sammy " at around 7:34ish... after a bit of "Rock Candy" yipes!
I thought he said "Sandy".
7:17
Montrose's "Rock Candy" on bass & drums.. Nice.
They start playing Montrose at 7:11 which is really interesting that the band was thinking about Sammy 9 years before he joined
Great rythm from Alex and Michael
Wow these guys already playing mean street 4 years before it was released
pure gold!!
Ahead of there time. This sounds better the album. Im glad I got to see every tour from 1980.just amazing.
Seems like enough time that some type of Van Halen retrospective should have come out.
Was Mikey and Alex playing Rock Candy at 7:18?
Did anyone notice Al&Mike’’s (Rock Candy) jam @ 7:16?
Also it sounds like Dave says Sammy @ 7:37... .
41 years ago...
Fantastic and of course Eddie's on fire 🔥
Oh fuck yeah,,,, more videos of this fuckin band
Amazing !!!!!!!!
Badass
R.I.P ☠ Edward Lodewijk Van Halen 👨🏻🎤🎸🎹.
RIP EVH
Amazing....
I wonder how hard it was to get singer boy to NOT do his little screams. I was in a band with a prances who screamed in and out of transitions. It haunts me to this day.
#going well#killin it#the best#smashing it#tearing it up 😜💗💯
Amazing
On🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥hell yeah 👍
