@@PauloHowlett Clearly, you do not know what true musicianship is. Mikey and Eddie were the backbone of VH harmonies from the beginning. We’ve heard it many times. Michael Anthony never, ever needed backing tracks. Look up Dreams live. He sings every “and higher” response to Sammy live, to preserve Sammy’s voice. Mikey can probably still out-sing every modern vocalist today, even in his advanced age.
Man.. Micheal and Eddie are delivering Beach Boy grade harmony vocals on this while kicking ass on their instruments.. this is why their called the “Mighty VH” 🤘
Hate to break to your but on these live videos, they overdubbed the background vocals to sound better quality. Not saying VH's vocals were bad live but they were NOT at this level. They did the same thing for Live right here and now release.
@@mindeloman you’re probably right… it sounds too slick for live, though I did get the chance to record Sammy and Mike … check out my RUclips channel of my concert mix of Chickenfoot on a Canadian run back in 2009.. no overdubs! I can attest
Nope. The harmonies are abit off from the record. You can hear Ed allot more here and he and Mike are singing these harmonies in abit of a lower register compared to the Mine all Mine from the OU812 record. @@mindeloman
@Markis5150 so you're saying a lower register could not have been produced in a studio? It can only be done live? Ed and Mike couldn't have gone into studio to overdub vocals for a better live mix?
People hated Sammy coming in to sing but he just made VH ten times better with his vocals and him and Eddie I mean Eddie wrote most of DLR records when Sammy came in they just went nuclear with Sammy’s lyrics I miss this band so much it’s so hard not to miss lineup with Sammy it was awesome live
Eddie was a fast guitar player with innovative chops who was honing his “songwriting.” His creativity exploded when Sammy joined…that took Eddie to another plateau…where Beethoven and Mozart stand.
Sammy redefined VH and put them back on top. It didn't hurt that Eddie is the guitar god he is of course but Sammy opened them up to a whole new audience and ushered VH into a new era...I grew up on DLR VH but with Sammy, the game was upped on so many levels.
I always love how Sammy misses his cue to come back after the solo. Eddie gives him a look and is like "ummm we're playing to a backing track, can't mess this up' lololol
Agree...Its more definitive and descriptive of Eddie than anything. If someone who never heard of him asked what he sounded like, You could play them This solo and it would represent better than anything, Including Eruption.
Alex’s drumming is like a runaway train -AWESOME. And this may be the best live recording I’ve heard of VH. Each of them all sound spectacular LOVE IT!!!
Agree! So much nagging about Alex not beeing tight, on-time, etc. He is swinging and making it groove incredibly, way out away from traditional rock drumming, and that's all positive for me.
6stringer72 he was still using his Marshall’s live through the ou812 tour. The soldano made its introduction during the recording of F.u.c.k., and then the 5150s were designed as an answer to the slo100 for the subsequent tour
Sammy always delivers 100%, the best frontman they ever had!!!! I've been to DLR shows and everytime he was half in the bag, struggling to finish the show without falling down.
Agreed, Sam can hold his own. Playing with Eddie? It's hard to even convince the audience you are even playing. Don't get me wrong, I adore Sammy as a front-man and a guitarist, it's just Eddie is in another league. Sam knew this and respected it and made it work to bring VH to one of the greatest Rock bands of all time.
Spiritual Sammy! To quote Wikipedia on this one: "The deeper metaphysical lyrics to "Mine All Mine" were rewritten seven times, with Hagar saying "it was the first time in my life I ever beat myself up, hurt myself, punished myself, practically threw things through windows, trying to write the lyrics."
I have many favorite EVH solos depending on the flavor of the tune, but the one from Mine All Mine is one of his most melodic and beautiful solos ever recorded.
Fuckin Sammy is TIMELESS! I been rocking with him since I was 15! Montrose was the shit in 75! Bad motor scooter,space station,rock candy,etc.He is STILL rockin! Eddie and alex will be long gone,and Sammy will STILL be rocking! He IS the ROCK GOD!
Sammy is such an underrated vocalist! Amazing! Same with Alex and Mikey! Eddie was so good he outshined everyone... He didn’t mean to do it. He was just that freekin good! RIP KING EDWARD!
I grew up playing OU812 over and over and I swear most of this album just sounds like alt-history VH. The mixing was different, like it was missing a lot of low end or something. The songs were explorers. Underrated song, underrated album!
Yes wow, agree with all comments on backing vox , like a 2 man choir, not another band exists that could match that quality.......ever. Continues to astound me , and im watching my Tokyo 89 concert for the 237th time.
I remember Sammy saying on their next Album (F.U.C.K?) that OU812 wasn't quite complete. I think this was said because OU812 was not all that well accepted by critics. Looking back, OU812 may have been THE very best of Van Halen (Hagar era). The whole album is way ahead of its time.
*Thank God we had them in our time in this snapshot of history. Always when the song is newly recorded you'll find your best performances. When they were at the top of their game, when Numbers or Egos mattered least and nothing but intuitive creative expression, masterful song writing, and hard rocking Ruled. And Sammy's and Mike's vocals always blast off the band into The Jamming Stratosphere. Truly missing this Act*
R.I.P Eddie, such an inspiration, showing myself and millions of others that when you attempt the impossible, you just might be surprised by what 'impossible' things you can do.
I don’t what more you can ask for from a band. Maturing is a part of life. You’re supposed to grow and get better. David Lee Roth was too busy clowning around and staying in the same place to appreciate this kind of songwriting. Sammy was perfect for this time period. If you prefer DLR “singing” half the words and telling the same jokes over and over, well…
Christ what's a man to do !!! Crank up some Good Ole' Sammy era VH and Rock On !! Love The Red Rocker ! Saw him for the first time on New Years Eve 83 in Tacoma Wa. when I was stationed at Ft. Lewis in the Army , he blew the roof off the Tacoma Dome ! Rockin' In The New Year with The Red Rocker !! When he became a member of VH , I Knew we were in for something Special ! Eddie and he brought out the Best in each other ! See you on The Other Side Edward 🔥💖🎸❤🤍🖤
"STOP LOOKING OUT, START LOOKING IN, BE YOUR OWN BEST FRIEND, STAND UP AND SAY HEY THIS IS MINE ALL MINE"
Words to live by. LOVE this song.
So true! I love this part the BEST!
Love it 😂
Maybe the most underrated song of the VH/Sammy era.
its high up on the overall VH list
Not to me, this is kickass high energy song. Love it the very first time heard it.
Eric Senich is the Van Halen news desk still up and running?
And the most spiritual.
it's only good sounding when ed played it on guitar not on keyboard.
Michael Anthony's background vocals are impeccable.
ten fold- I love the CD...great harmonizing with Eddie too....
because they are likely tracked
Backing vocals here are playback

The live performance of this band is one of the best that ive seen in rock history
Perfection when playing live.
The best live song off of “RH RN” was the “won’t get fooled again” cover.
This is now 30 years old. Crazy!
And spectacular
This is now 35 years old , unbelievable indeed.🤕
Man this Live version is spectacular! Eddie's guitar work is mesmerizing as always. R.I.P. 😥
He is mesmerized while he's playing it.

Great song
Great band
Sammy is so busy rockin out at 3.00 he forgets to sing
In my opinion one of the best guitar solos ever on this song from king Ed
Ou812 a masterpiece.
These songs and albums still hold up 25+ years later!!! Sammy era stuff was epic and not to be over looked!!!!!!!!!!
I always love how Sammy misses his cue to come back after the solo. Eddie gives him a look and is like "ummm we're playing to a backing track, can't mess this up' lololol
Wow the band are so tight and Eddie’s rhythm is unbelievably good!
This has to be the most cool guitar solo eddie has made
+crisshalen Check "feelin" live from Balance tour. That has the best Eddie solo ever.
detonator2112 ha! was thinking that too! that is a great song
The solo is my ring tone.
Great solo but I personally like the rhythm part better during "I got something" .
Agree...Its more definitive and descriptive of Eddie than anything. If someone who never heard of him asked what he sounded like, You could play them This solo and it would represent better than anything, Including Eruption.
I remember I bought this record right away.... without listening it.... still one of my favorite VH songs.... feel 18 again.....
I was 18 when this album came out. Great song. Very powerfull. Rock on dude!
You´ve never had to listen to any VH record before bought it! It´s "Satsfaction Guranteed" !!!
I had to do an MRI.. they let
me play this cassette 😁
One of the rare times seeing Alex wearing headphones to play to the click for backing tracks. Very cool
I remember a DJ stating that all the hard rockers don't ever smile but Ed does. And the reply was, he knows that he is Eddie Fuckin Van Halen.
Alex’s drumming is like a runaway train -AWESOME. And this may be the best live recording I’ve heard of VH. Each of them all sound spectacular LOVE IT!!!
Agree! So much nagging about Alex not beeing tight, on-time, etc. He is swinging and making it groove incredibly, way out away from traditional rock drumming, and that's all positive for me.
Anybody saying Alex ain't tigt or on time?..is out of it!
That tone...so delicious.
Soldano amp I’m sure!! Great tone

redhead5150 yeh Sammys the man pure energy to the end ✌️🎶
@Justin Ford what a deluded reply
More talented singer but DLR is arguably the best frontman for VH. More iconic but I am biased as a fan of his stage presence.
Sammy is so incredible as a singer he just blows everybody away and he is an amazing guitar player which I never knew

It's song like this that separates VH from other bands. They're just so much more talented.
God damn I wish to go back to 1989
The catchiest song Van Halen ever did!

Amazing!

He didn’t mean to do it.
He was just that freekin good!
RIP KING EDWARD!
I grew up playing OU812 over and over and I swear most of this album just sounds like alt-history VH. The mixing was different, like it was missing a lot of low end or something. The songs were explorers. Underrated song, underrated album!
The bass always lacked in every album IMO especially when templeman produced. A little better in Sammy Era but still thin bass and low end
Was never underrated. Underrated is an over used word. This album got so much air play long after it came out.
one of my best Van H tunes
I feel they were at their peak this album and tour. Top notch.
Blows my mind!
Got to be one of AVH's most insane drum setups;
And his most insane playing.
That double bass pattern I'm still trying to figure out til this day
It’s not double bass
It’s not double bass
It’s not double bass
VERY VERY VERY UNDERRATED SONG FROM THIS LINEUP IN MY OPINION THE BEST SONG!! RIP EDDIE YOU WILL ALWAYS BE MISSED!!!!!!!!!!!
the tone on that guitar is killer!!!!!...as always..
This is absolute peak EVH, and all the true afficianados know it!
Yes wow, agree with all comments on backing vox , like a 2 man choir, not another band exists that could match that quality.......ever.
Continues to astound me , and im watching my Tokyo 89 concert for the 237th time.
They were smoking hot around this period. Sammy is incredible, and they’ve always done awesome backups.
Superb!!!
That solo.. has to be one of his best 💯🔥
R.i.p. Van Halen 🤘🏼🤘🏼😢
Saw this show in Richmond va that year and I think Ed was wearing the same shirt. Hard to believe it’s 33 years gone.

I love to listen this amazing song when I take a flight to Japan on a JAL's plane.
The best tune from them on every level
If these guys aren't the best rock and roll band ever I don't wanna be right.
R.I.P Eddie, such an inspiration, showing myself and millions of others that when you attempt the impossible, you just might be surprised by what 'impossible' things you can do.
This song fits me so well, really represents how I life and how I've lived
That was great but I did notice chorus on tape at the end
RIP Eddie Van Halen! Such amazing talent, stood out from many. 🙏🏼🎸
pure Awesomeness..and that Solo..God THAT SOLO..look Kids..this is what a Rock Band should look and sound like..
2:20 - 2:59 is the best piece of guitar music ever written
I keep coming back to this.
They are simply the greatest ever
This is soooo good.
Great Sound Song ... ... ...
Super solo, one of Ed's best
Badass, rockin', in your face, steamroller of a song! I love the sound of the live drums!
sammy looks so young..and as akways, lyrically masterful
This is MY VAN HALEN!!!!!
Edward a mastermind of groove and great songwriting
that is a bad ass song
One of my favourite songs the lyrics are a work of art
And as he looked at what his band mates and the crowd were wearing Eddie realized it would be his last night wearing that shirt
Damn I love this song We Love You Edward

The best Harmony’s in Rock N Roll...
Alex on this song is just fuking awesome listen to all of it kickdrums alone
My favorite VH song by far. RIP Eddie.
Could even be the studio version, so perfect performance
Straight off the bat......no one does better pick slides!!!!!!!!!!!
It's definitely got a cool groove this one,and Ed regardless is playing in top form on that ole guitar of dreams
A masterpiece through and through. Just killer.
Great 👍🏻
This is one of the best videos I ever seen of VH this album is underrated you don’t see a lot of this tour
Who would know back then that all dramas was to come 20 plus years later,,none of us.
They'll find a cure for anything, just kill the pain and numb my brain.

this is where sammy can write some amazing lyrics...and then he goes and writes a song like up for breakfast...damn it sammy
Total bloody classic 👍
Sammy took this job very seriously. Outstanding video
Brilliant. No words left to describe these guys
THAT GUITAR SOLO IS FUXKING AMAZING
Great job 😊
after 25 years....still get goosebumps when Eddie breaks out into that solo! EPIC!!
People didn't like Sammy coming in to sing , listen to😮 montrose, his solo stuff, HSAS , VH. Chickenfoot..he is a great vocalist
Omg....they were so tight. Flawlessly done guys!
Pete Townshend said it best about Eddie: "He's got great taste." His guitar parts are so spontaneous and beautiful. The feel is amazing.
