Of the 78 tour boots, it's a tie between this, London, and Fresno!

[Diamondjimi]

London kicks ass too. Great recordings for back in the day....

The yearly 77/78 stuff is incredible.. Eddie never played like that again..

[Diamondjimi]

Too bad substance abuse and years of fluffy music & passive playing have taken it's toll.
The "reunion" tour was the hardest he's had to work in ages. Hard enough to drive him to relapse ...

Without a doubt, brotha.. This last tour forced EVH to play in a style that he hasn't played in years... The fucking 'auto-pilot' years have taken their toll for sure..

[VanHalenFan5150]

So do you guys like this? What about the other three boots I posted yesterday evening?

Judging by his playing of the classics during the Gary Cherone era, his playing has suffered greatly from drug abuse. I think there's a part of Ed that is very self loathing and a part of him that
used to fill that with praise of his abilities.
I don't think he has it in him anymore (as a player) to inspire like he used to....

I loved this boot - I actually got it onto my ipod! Many thanks - and yes, they sounded very sharp on all of these. Haven't ever heard a live version of Feel your Love before.

Big, big thanx!

This is a jewel... safe for the audience, who sound incredibly passive...
Maybe they were too overwhelmed with what they heard -
they played at le Theatre Mogador (on May 10th btw, not March 30th),
which isn't a very big concert hall, but well, VH was just releasing the first album by then.

Amazing boot, anyway! The sound is way better than the London concert, btw.

Cheers! :bottle:

What is flac?

It's a lossless audio codec that reduces the size of a CD-quality WAV file without damaging the file or cutting frequencies as MP3's do. Check the following for more info and how to download the converters and players for free..

Apparently they surrendered after the first song...

try ipswitch, england...that is a crystal clear soundboard.
this paris 1978 is an audience recording.
mind you, it's a damned good one.
fresno 1978 is audience too, and it's a clear and complete audio boot.

[VanHalenFan5150]

I got Ipswitch, put that one up already.
