Cheers and good night. Van Halen - Women In Love (Live). But according to transcriptions online Eddie is playing it wrong🤣
I’ve been on a Van Halen jag the last few days, but playing‘em on acoustic with a heavy set (56 - 13)!

@JoyfullyDazed any comment you’d care to make?
I myself think that the current Mr Bungle should cover more VH.
Eddie never played anything wrong.
DLR sucks.
Sammy is now in a VH cover band. No Eddie, no Alex, no VH.
Mr. Bungle cover more VH? Um. No.
😛😎🥰
FWIW —
A fairly representative setlist from Sammy’s “Best Of All Worlds” tour with Mike Anthony, Satriani, and Bonzo Jr.

I'm seriously missing the "Montrose" era
@Idissent @InUnfunky @JoyfullyDazed @CanisPundit Saw Montrose circa 1973. Sammy's pipes were underutilized until the 80s – he didn't cut loose until others had showed the way. Loved his VH work.

Was a big VH fan and when DLR left and Sammy replaced him — I was in AOR nerd heaven. NTM 2 guitars and Eddie playing keys too? AWESOME.
Then Eddie stopped playing keys live and they either got the guy from Night Ranger (Sammy played with him in Montrose) or went to a tape…
@InUnfunky @maybeimaleo @JoyfullyDazed @CanisPundit
I was never a big VH fan. I recognized the talent for sure but DLR was really off putting for me. I don't think I listened any more when Sammy joined but I was a fan of Sammy's solo stuff. I always enjoyed Standing Hampton
@Idissent @maybeimaleo @JoyfullyDazed @CanisPundit
DLR was pretty tongue-in-cheek whereas Sammy was fairly heart-on-sleeve, minus the obvs double entendres tunes. Nevertheless by the time of “OU812” my “tastes changed,” i.e. to cliched college alternative/rap/thrash…so anything VH was pretty outre. And THEN grunge blew everything to shit…😱🤣🤓
@InUnfunky @maybeimaleo @JoyfullyDazed @CanisPundit
I completely agree with this and was super happy about the whole grunge scene. Living in Seattle at that particular time was pretty amazing
