    Sometimes I wish Motley Crue had been the band that changed my life when I started getting into rock back in 1983. Life would have been a lot less stressful.

    This is yet another Van Hagar Cash for Clunkers thread, where we find yet more DLR-less garbage put out, or considered-for-output as VH material.

    It always happens, you see a thread like this get your hopes up and then WHACK that nice, crisp sting of truth right across the ass that there will be no new Van Halen ever, it's just a sick gag like a Beatles reunion rumour circa October 1980.

    I herd that if you listen to VHIII all the way through it would be like crossing the streams in Ghostbusters. So please do not do that.

    You are correct about the stream part, but it's more like peeing on an electric fence.

    LOL...I totally hear ya on this one. Although Crue has had their fair share of drama. Maybe Bon Jovi would have been the best choice. Always around touring & making music.

From what I've gathered, Post merely stopped in and listened to tracks once in a while, while providing no input other than the piano part on the opening "waltz". Furthermore, Ed admitted in one of the two Guitar World features that coincided with the album that he had Wolfgang listening to the tracks and making suggestions. This explains why the album sounds like it was produced by a seven year old.
    Quite likely that had a lot to do with it. I can't remember if it was at the Slawterhouse or the Links, but there was a LOT of investigation done into the credits of Van Halen III and the end result was a pretty resounding result of song doctors in massive use...wish I would have saved all that now...

    I hear ya. As I recall, Warners even had an official VH III website, where you could download "TWILY". It had the same purple theme that the band was featuring, and even by the primitive standards of the day it was pretty ghastly. But it did include some interesting info. For instance, Steve Lukather had more to do with that album than many people realize.

    Eddie wailed on SNL around '88. Then they took the riff, sucked the life and nuts out of it and it became Dirty Water Dog. It's a crime I tell ya.
    The SNL track's a monster. Stompin 8H, they called it.


    Song doctors for vh3? More like 1st year biology students with their first dissectable frog. It sounds like they couldn't be bothered to finish songs.
    Half of them just lingered until someone faded down.

    Let's say Steve joined Van Headache, Eddie could hide behind the new rhythm guitar player and blow whang-bar harmonic squeely noises to impress the crowd with the "gosh did you hear THAT" expression, all nite, and let Steve carry the work of playing the actual song.

    Nobody will notice. They all will be chanting "eddie, eddie" anyways.

    EVH could sit there on the drum riser reading a comic book, they'd still be going "eddie, eddie" while he glazes that stupid look on his face.

    Someday I hope DLR wipes that face off, live. I could forgive 25 years without a record if I get to see that!

    say what you want about VHIII, but that was easily ed's best playing in years. since 84 or 5150 anyway. knock out the vox and the music is actually pretty decent. just my opinion. production killed it.....
