Van Halen may or may not record a single w/Kool and the Gang

[tjvhou812]

the lead singer of kool n the gang says they might be going out to europe with VH this summer
and he said they might record a single with van halen.

Europe great news ... A Kool single just sounds weird

[Yount]

Even if they do it will be listenable.

I'll pass on a Kool/VH single, thank you.

Smells like Aerosmith/Run DMC to me, and even though it resuscitated Aero's career, I still think it sucked.

VH doesn't need to do any silly, collaborative stunts to be on the map. ADKOT has shown that they still have the legs to do things on their own terms, and that's the way it should stay.

Van Halen covering a Kool song I could enjoy. A collaboration? I don't think so.

VH's got Kool and the Gang...
on a single...
and when Dave sings...
it will rock...


They've got Edward...
and his guitar...
and he shreds it...when he plays...

Dave did mention that they covered Hollywood Swingin back in the club days. That song was bad ass live at MSG. I don't really see this happening, but if they Halenized this tune, we could get our first ever VH tune with a horn section. Something Dave knew he was never able to convince the others to try way back when.

Love it... Dave wouldn't jam with Sam and Mike on that stupid 2002 tour, but he'll cut a single with Kool & The Gang! Hahaha!!!!!
Dave is the fucking greatest... ever!!!

I'm sure if they do something with Kool & The Gang, it will be on their own terms.
Although Dave will kick your teeth in with a Van Halen show... off stage he's more likely to have some good R&B on his playlist than hard rock or metal.
Check him out jamming up to Love Train by the O'Jays in the video scrapbook... this is the music he loves, and I'd love to hear what they could come up with.
Way better idea than the bluegrass thing... that just didn't jive at all.

[Mr Walker]

BTW... working title of the single is 'Harley Davidson'

VH with horns? Fuck man, LOVE it!!! As for the bluegrass thing...I was in a play in which my character had to square dance...I used bluegrass Hot For Teacher.

that wasn't even all of Aerosmith, just Perry and Tyler.
