Everyone knows Dave is a great production guy. The Classic VH and Early solo videos and sound quality on all albums is there as proof.
If Dave was asked to produce someone elses album who do you think he would want to work with.
My thoughts, The Darkness, Silvertide, Velvet Revolver.
Any ideas???
That's an interesting question, one I've never thought about.
Hmmm...
With Dave's diverse range of interests, it could almost really be any kind of band, ie. salsa, big-band, etc, in addition to a rock act.
"What we've been doing, which is great and certainly cost saving, is I train in the sand pit in McDonald's. I do a few laps. I go through the tunnel a few times. The kids don't mind if I smoke. Plus, when I'm done, lunch is right there."- DLR 2003
But I think most industry people would consider Dave to be way out of touch with the times.
I dont know about not being in touch with the times. I mean Dave did tell Sammy on MTV and Carson Daily on his show that he is on the Front Bumper of American pop culture.
I want Dave to Produce me!!!!! I think im the only chick on this god green earth that can handle him...and even top him perhaps!!!! So Dave, if yer lookin to produce, well.....heres your chance!!!!!
MUHUAHWHWHAHAHAHAHAHA...
It would be nice if Dave would produce you, I would finally get to meet him!!!
given the money Dave would come up with something soooo crazy that people would'nt even understand it, just look at no hold's bbq, this thing is brilliant kinda like andy warholesque but excellent!
I hope he does produce you as well, you live in Toronto and so do i. then i can meet the Diamond One in all his glory.
Dave's not really a good producer.
Ted Templeman's the genius behind the sound of the first six records.
Dave's gig was writing clever lyrics and trying to keep Ed sober enough to come up with good licks.
Pop quiz, what albums, Van Halen or Dave solo, has Dave been credited for as a producer ?
BABY PANA 2 IS Coming !! All across the land, let the love and beer flow !
Love ya Mary Frances!
Dave co produced Skyscraper with Steve Vai and in my opinion that album was ahead of it time. I mean listen to the song Skyscraper, those dynamics were awesome.
he also did a lot of the Videos, he has good ideas and concepts. Did he not also produce the Diamond Dave album?
Mutt Lange, Daniel Lanois and George Martin are out of touch?Originally posted by degüello

I'm surprised Dave HASN'T done this yet. Kiss helped out Van Halen...who has Dave helped out? It's apparent that Dave's influence is all over the 6-pack because Van Hagar went 180 and downhill with the rock department.
I could see him w/ The Darkness. Justin worships Dave and they rock to a Queen collided with AC/DC sound. Let Dave "motivate" the band in new directions and teach Justin the growl and VIOLA...instant immortality!

The reason the Van Hagar era records stunk production wise was that they rarely had a decent producer. They ditched Ted Templeman and decided to go with Andy Johns for most of the next few records.
Yeah thats true but Ted Templeman also produced Van Hagars F.u.c.k album. What the hell happened there??? Dont blame Sammy cuz that 1st montrose album is a classic and he produced that to.
Ted produced the vocals on FUCK, which sounded pretty good, even if you think the record sucks. Andy Johns and Van Halen produced the music.
No i didnt think the music sucked specificaly. It was Van Hagar, mind you songs like Runaround and judgement day are 2 of the few van hagar tunes i tolerate. Andy Johns engineered some LED ZEP, thats good credentials
Andy Johns was usually riding on his brother's coattails. Glyn Johns produced some of the true classic albums of all time, such as "Who's Next" and the Stones "Get Your Ya-Yas Out"

How about Van Halen?
Twistin' by the pool.
