    Can we all agree that a core component to the sound of Van Halen is the background vocals Michael Anthony?

    • @chrisluckhardt
      @chrisluckhardt 4 месяца назад +10

      How about the Roth-era combo of Mike and Eddie harmonizing together? That to me is the magic Van Halen background vocal sound. It sounds thin without Ed’s tone and lower harmonies.

    • @ponzo1967

    After reading Noel Monk’s book, I can’t help but look at these guys in a different light. Michael Anthony deserved so much better treatment and credit, but he is a true professional and was there for the fans. No matter what side you’re on, Mike deserves a medal for what he put up with.

      @@bubbaguitar12 Check out "Runnin' With The Devil". Came out in 2017. I highly recommend it if you're a fan of the band. It gets into the business side a bit, but still has plenty of stories to tell about how wild things were during the original Roth era. A bit heartbreaking in the end, and you could see that as great as they were, there was so much more potential if the egos and the excess hadn't gotten in the way. I had a hard time putting the book down.

    The last great song from the mighty Van Halen. The band was at its peak. A great band always has friction in a band. That's why this dong is so amazing. In the movie Twister. They took human beings and played the song with full orchestra. Then the guy goes “ take a ride on the wild side” .this song is almost 30 yrs old and still holds up. Thank you Eddie, Alex, Micheal, and Sammy. Miss this band so damn much

    Sammy and Eddie had just about had it with each other at this point. Eddie and Alex gave the thumbs down to Sammy's original lyrics (which involved tornadoes, which Eddie specifically told Sammy not to write about). Luckily, they were able to hammer this out, and it went to #1 on the Mainstream Rock charts. A fitting finale for the Sammy era.

Eddie you were taken away from your family, friends and fans way to early but you made an indelible mark on not just the world of music but on the world itself and there will never be another great musician such as yourself.

      @@WTHenry2023 I loved HSAS & their version of Whiter Shade of Pale. Also loved Missing You. Sammy played in my home town in 1984. I had just graduated high school and had bought a black 1979 Camaro Z28, with tinted windows & a Craiger louver. I went to the concert with four of my friends, yes one sat on the hump in the back. lol. After the concert my friend needed something from 7-11 & she just happened to be in the passenger seat. It's summer & we have the windows rolled down, playing one of my Sammy cassettes & singing our lungs out. I heard airbrakes on the side street, heard a (bus) door open & some guy went running into the 7-11. Didn't faze us, still rocking out. Heard the door open again & Sammy came behind my car, opened the door & jumped in. Told me to drive. I was dumbstruck & backed up & drove around like he said. He was singing with us the entire time. Unfortunately, my dash was black too & there were only black sharpies back then, or I would have had him sign my dash. Pull up into 7-11 my friend is pissed as hell & Sammy is trying to talk me in to riding down to Denver in his bus & have my friends follow in my car. I knew what he meant & politely declined. But it's still an amazing memory!!!
