NYVoice It's sad that the Van Halen brothers, (Eddie seems to be the one that slings the most...mud), have nothing nice to say about any of the former band members, (anybody whose name isn’t Van Halen). 'The voice from hell'? I hadn’t heard that until now, but it’s no surprise. I don’t like that crap, but I love the way Michael shrugs it off and pays Ed a compliment. These comments sum up the loss to the Van Halen 'tone': the best background vocalist in Rock.
100% agree. I loved this guy since I was 14 years old and still do and predictably my music taste has evolved but I most love this guy for his joy of life that seeps through him and everything he touches. Total role model. My heart smiles for this. Get up and do what the hell you want, honor your commitments and play some darn music. That is real freedom
I'm 50 years old and followed Sammy for a long time. He's an absolute true blue rocker.And I know this to be true... There will never be another Micheal Jordan and there will never be another Sammy Hagar. Rock On Brother!!!
Several things jump out of this, I will try to capture them all : Sammy's vocals are still killin' it. Michael is a beast on the bass and vocals. That drum machine sounds great. The guitarist tone is so sweet.
Vic Johnson is a low key, under the radar talent. His work with Sammy since he left VH has all been great. I've seen him live a few times, and he's fun to watch on stage.
A lot of drummers (not saying Jason) don't know how to play at a lower volume, and the entire band ALWAYS has to get over the volume of the drums. Having an electronic kit where you can control the volume allows the other instruments and vocals to come down or up at a level where you want them to be. I play both an acoustic DW kit, and a very good Roland electronic kit, depending on the size of the venue, and also what I feel like playing. I mean, that little Roland pad kind of looks funny, but look at how much room it isn't taking up, and it sounds very good.
I'm sure he could have people set up stuff and tear it down, but when your traveling its still somebody elses gear......he's doing it right...….travel light......prolly take that everywhere....
Jim H. You’re right! I’ve never heard of him before, but will be looking for his music as soon as I finish typing. If you know of any rare appearances he’s made, could you please 'reply'? Thanks!🙏
I have tried for 15 yrs to find a reason not to like Sammie, but he wins me over time and time again, bit by bit, by just being real. Consistently. He's just a real simple dude, and I mean that in the best way.
Guitars rcool probably the same reason I’ve done the same. I’m a DLR apologist. 1984 was the soundtrack of my youth. But the truth, unfortunately, is that Edward, Alex and even Dave have been petty, bitter, insecure and unforgiving. And that eats people up inside. I know; I’ve struggled with the same character defects. Sam is just a great man all around. A good person who is willing to do what is right.
A lot comes out about a person over the course of 71 years. Look at Lee Roth, EVH .. who these guys are and what they project. Then look at Sam, and all the hate he got by at least half of the die-hard VH fans when he took over, despite the success. Never bitter, never anything but fully appreciative of all his success and good luck And everything he steps in, from Tequila to mountain bikes to restaurants to already-huge rock acts, turns to solid gold. And he's still happy to be fronting this humble ensemble, writing easy-breezy lyrics, and singing like a 25 year-old. Not a hell of a lot to not like there.
Like Jon Anderson of Yes who's 75, they both take immaculate care of their legendary voices; Anyone who's seen Jon in ARW the last three years marvel at how Anderson sings songs like " Heart of the Sunrise " in the original key...it's really incredible. Sammy and him are also two of the nicest people in the music biz I've met, and really, really love their fans.
And he's done his fair share of everything, he just doesn't have the destructive addictive element that Eddie (et Al) struggled with. He's super Libra positive and peace keeping and humble and honest. I love Roth but it is interesting to see how the voice has changed since '78. And that's not a knock on talent or anything just that the years and the choices pay out as we travel through time and space. We're all learning as we go, but I absolutely agree with you!
The most mind blowing thing is the drummer hitting that small drum pad without even missing a single beat. Damn. Also Sammy at his age looks and sings darn great.
Hell yeah. See, this could be Van Halen with Mike and Sammy, having a good time and performing these great songs. Their loss. The Circle sounds kick ass.
Sammy, Micheal and Jason... with Howard... I am LOL.. Sammy is 71 yo and still has a great voice. !!! This story is what Rock n Roll Legends is all about..! Thanks for the video
Please tell me again how mediocre Mike is on bass. LOL The dude is a ninja. His voice and low end is as much a part of the VH sound as anything outside of Ed's guitar.
Sammy is THE MAN! Van Halen needed Sammy way more than Sammy needed Van Halen . Sammy already had an awesome solo career. Eddie should have finished what he started with Sammy.
Wow...Bonham making that electric pad work...I gotta say, never thought I'd see that and like it. Way to go Jason...nice band...I wanna see these guys.
This band sounds amazing and huge props to Jason playing on the Roland Sampling Pad. Also, as much as this pains me to say... The Van Halen ship has sailed. The Circle is awesome and should not be in the shadow of VH. I am so happy we are getting new music from these guys!
Much as I respect Eddie for his contribution to rock music, I think he made some very bad decisions when it comes to Sammy and Mike. I also doubt that there’s a day that goes by that he doesn’t regret it.
Just shows what a talented drummer Jason is. To be able to play that on a sample pad and have it sound that good is amazing. Oh yeah and the other guys ain't so bad either. ;)
Sammy will be 74 this Oct 21!!! We all hear rocker's voices as they get older & WOW, he is still pretty stinking good!!! I saw Van Hagar at Red Rocks, back in the mid 90's, Awesome!!!
My first concert was Sammy and the Wabos as well, at Cal State San Bernardino. I live in Fontana, where he grew up and one of my neighbors went to school with Sammy. I think it may have been one of his first concerts after leaving VH. I saw VH, I think with Roth and Sammy, a few years later, but the sound seemed bad. There were a bunch of other Sammy concerts around SoCal and the last one I had on stage tickets. Marching to Mars was bad ass. Unfortunately, I have not seen Chickenfoot in concert and wish they had done more albums.
Ivon Craig my bands rehearsal space I provide an Ekit and we all go direct so I can control everything and we don't go deaf. Drummer just brings sticks
@@Jerlad1 I take it you're a drummer...I'm a guitar and sax player but secretly always wanted to learn drums...it's friggin AMAZING how far this electronic percussion technology has come in the past 20-30 years !!
Sammy and Mike are living life! They sound great and look very happy, which is well deserved! Bet Ed and Alex are jealous. They need to wake up and start living again, as they are sadly wasting away.
You would think after Axle and Slash patched things up and played again together. That Eddie and Alex would do the same with Sammy and Mike. Nobody ever thought that the 2 core members of G'N'R would ever be performing with each other again. Just mind-blowing. lol
@@jerryh.9812 lol you're right but a few of his birthday bash shows I watched he was sounding a little rough but still better than a lot of people especially in his 70s
F$@king amazing. From MA backup vocals Jason's drumming great lead guitar and Sammys totally kick ass lead vocals. Man these guys sound great. I'm impressed.
You guys ( The Howard Stern Show) are killing it!! So many great guests! I'm hoping you guys could get Jimmy Page, Nikki Sixx, Robert Plant again, before HOward stern retires!
I got news for you. Van Halen music now lives through these guys. I am absolutely certain that DLR can not carry the torch with his diminished abilities, Alex can't do it on his own and Wolfgang only got into the band because of his dad. EVERYONE AGREES
Why is it that everyone in the world can see the potential for Van Halen to have had much more success and longevity with Hagar and Anthony except for those who actually have the last name Van Halen? Great session! Thanks for putting it out there, Howard!
I’ve been a Van Halen fan from day one and Mike is a backup voice that made VH what they are today, plus he nails a song on the bass guitar like no other, very solid. He reminds me of how valuable The Beach Boys were and are. I’m a DLR fan but Sammy can sing really well and he is a really nice guy that I would love to meet.
Brent Young you’re right, as are almost all of the folks who have commented on this video. Van Halen isn’t the same without Michael Anthony, who-as you pointed out-is looking quite happy. By the time people are his age, being happy is all that should matter.
I noticed with Jason's electronic drum that it is broken into sections. It seems if you hit different sections there are different sounds. You got to be good to do it right. Obviously, Jason is great. The drum set was interesting to see. Sure is easy to transport.
Yeah, I was wondering how he was doing it? Where's the high hat, the snare, the bass, the toms and the cymbals? It's literally 6 squares. It's so much harder to be accurate when hitting them, seeing they all must give off a completely different sound.
Thank you Vic Johnson for playing the white Proton Guitar Company custom we built for you on Howard...not only do the guys kick ass, they have hearts of gold as well. See it here: www.protonguitarcompany.com
What is left to be said about the awesomeness of Michael Anthony’s background vocals and solid bass playing? Nothing! It’s all been said and all the kudos are well deserved! And Sammy is probably one of the most soulful rock singers ever! His screams are still awesome! And the dude can still sing his ass off.
That's the son of the greatest rock drummer to have ever sat behind a kit of drums!!! The apple didn't fall far from the tree Jason. You played and sounded great! You've put a great beautiful smile on your dad's face again and for sure have made him so proud of you! Keep the Bonham name alive as you have some many fans out here that just love what your doing and makes the love we have for your father endure for all time!!!

I don't think Michael Anthony ever got enough credit during his VH days.
That's tight.. and Michael Anthony's backing vocals are still outstanding.
Ed called it the voice from hell. Some hell. Gifted range and a powerful compliment to both Dave and Sammy.
@@NYVoice Ed was just jealous of Mike because he could never sing for 💩 !! 🤫🤣

Love love love Mikey🏝️🌞🌉
Michael Anthony looks happy now playing with Sammy ...
Van Halen ain't complete without that Michael Anthony back vocals 🤘🤘
I was thinking just the same thing listening to this. Michael Anthony deserves a lot more credit than he gets with his backing vocals.
Don't forget his bass lines are top notch
You got that right!!!!👍✌🇺🇸✌
He's phenoms.
True that bro
I cannot believe how amazing Sammy still sounds live!
Sammy should be a role model for living life to the fullest. The guy kicks ass!
I do not want to hit 70 unless I do it like Sammy
I Agree - very positive- and a Great Wife & Family 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
100% agree.

Like kid rock
Sammy's 71 and a half years old and sounds THIS amazing? Incredible!
Technique and tequila I figger.
he is the man
And doesn't look a day over 50.
Dan Maler Wow! Amazing!
Sammy's been fucking brilliant since he first started. He'll still be going like this until he dies. Absolute legend.
I'm 50 years old and followed Sammy for a long time. He's an absolute true blue rocker.And I know this to be true... There will never be another Micheal Jordan and there will never be another Sammy Hagar. Rock On Brother!!!

How cool is it the Bonham is willing to play a drum pad like that?
Kevr and it sounds really good for a drum pad. Sure is better than Mattel’s Synsonic Drums from 1982 😊
It sounded great and minimal set up...perfect for that setting...
A lot of drummers (not saying Jason) don't know how to play at a lower volume, and the entire band ALWAYS has to get over the volume of the drums.

I thought the be Michael. Well deserved
Sammy's still got it.

I have tried for 15 yrs to find a reason not to like Sammie, but he wins me over time and time again, bit by bit, by just being real. Consistently. He's just a real simple dude, and I mean that in the best way.
Why would you TRY and not like Sammy?? That's very juvenille and very negative.
he and mikey seem like the only sane ones in that band
Just curious, why would you LOOK for a reason to dislike Sammy?
Woops, I just noticed someone has already asked the same question. Lol
Guitars rcool probably the same reason I’ve done the same. I’m a DLR apologist. 1984 was the soundtrack of my youth.

Sammy doesn't just talk the talk he obviously walks the walk, man he sounds awsome!
Man that electronic drum set that Jason is playing is badass !!
Michael Anthony's the man!! refuse to see Van Halen without him!
don't bother even if he's in the band with Dave. All his great harmonies and bass are worth shit if Dave's singing, or whatever it is he does
I said the same thing. It's not VH without him regardless of who is singing.
I refuse to see them, or any millionaire musicians, if they insist on raping us on ticket prices.
yup
I remember his Jack Daniels bass!
Man... Sammy has taken very good care of those vocal cords.
Sounded great.
I never realized that was Michael Anthonys' voice. His is *the* background voice for VH.
Jim Beam thank you for sharing your opinion, with which I agree 110%!! 'Astute observation', Sir!
Jim Beam when I was a kid in 1988 I thought the background singers on When It’s Love were girls. Mike isn’t what I pictured, but he’s great.
Micheal Anthony knew where the talent was that's why he is where he is today
Love this song....and album!
Jason Bonham ? Holy son of Led Zepplin Batman!
I had no idea he was playing in this group!! Nice use of the electronic kit too!
You can just tell its him by his playing style!
Eh. He’s way overrated
I mean..... 71 and still have his voice . Wow
I guess Tequila is a preservative!
And still very handsome.
Like Jon Anderson of Yes who's 75, they both take immaculate care of their legendary voices; Anyone who's seen Jon in ARW the last three years marvel at how Anderson sings songs like " Heart of the Sunrise " in the original key...it's really incredible.

That's Jason Bonham. His father is the late John Bonham who was the drummer for Led Zeppelin. He is a great drummer like his dad. :)
In case you don't know already, that's Jason Bonham!
Well, in reality hitting those tiny pads ain't at all that difficult. If you're a Bonham, I mean.
Hell yeah. See, this could be Van Halen with Mike and Sammy, having a good time and performing these great songs. Their loss. The Circle sounds kick ass.
DLR got kicked out of the nursing home and they felt sorry for him. Can you blame them?
Sammy, Micheal and Jason... with Howard... I am LOL.. Sammy is 71 yo and still has a great voice. !!! This story is what Rock n Roll Legends is all about..! Thanks for the video

gee, really? lol, who told you otherwise?
He doesn't get nearly as much credit he as deserves.
Jason kills it on the electronic drums,like father like son very cool!!
Yup. I don't get how they work though. How does he know what's the snare, the toms, the high hat, etc? It's literally just six squares.
Roland SPD-SX, has 9 sections, top three are smaller - use shoulder of stick to play these.
@@Danimal77 it's actually nine, you can configure them however you like in the SPD-SX. You're missing the top 3 which are half-size pads.

A trillion times BETTER than VH with Roth now.....and its in a radio studio. Thats Talent!
Roth never sang that song I know off.
that said, you're right.
Dennis Williams LOL. GTFOH! Van Halen with Sammy sucked! I love Sammy as a solo act, but Van Halen with Roth was on another level.
Michael's backing vocals make all the difference!!
Anthony is prob the most underappreciated musician in modern rock
Sammy is THE MAN! Van Halen needed Sammy way more than Sammy needed Van Halen . Sammy already had an awesome solo career. Eddie should have finished what he started with Sammy.
Sammy and Michael are the best parts missing of Van Halen. They can keep Roth. Sammy rocks!

71 and still rocking his ass off. I feel so priviledge to have met you in 1999 at Cabo Wabo. ALL TIME FAVORITE SINGER!!!!!!! :D
Awesome Job with this Interview Howard! So Interesting
What is left to be said about the awesomeness of Michael Anthony’s background vocals and solid bass playing? Nothing! It’s all been said and all the kudos are well deserved! And Sammy is probably one of the most soulful rock singers ever! His screams are still awesome! And the dude can still sing his ass off.
Mikey is there!!!! 🤘🏻. How old is Sammy now? He’s gonna outlive Keith Richards! Still sounds great tho!
Grew up my mom and uncle listening to Sammy Hagar. This is one song that still sounds amazing after all those years.
Michael Anthony is an excellent singer as well...
This is the first time that I see a drummer performing live with a Roland SPD-SX... I don't know who that guy is, but he's very good with the SPD-SX.
Jason Bonham!
Jason Bonham
Jason Bonham. Son of legend drummer John Bonham who of course played with Led Zeppelin.
That's the son of the greatest rock drummer to have ever sat behind a kit of drums!!! The apple didn't fall far from the tree Jason. You played and sounded great! You've put a great beautiful smile on your dad's face again and for sure have made him so proud of you! Keep the Bonham name alive as you have some many fans out here that just love what your doing and makes the love we have for your father endure for all time!!!
