New David Lee Roth Greatest Hits coming in Nov!

[perrin29]

Saw this article this morning. I have the other version which is more extensive than this new one but the remastering and addition of the DVD disc is cool. Still curious why Damn Good has never been included on a hits package. Always liked that one.

I don't think I'll be buying this collection, though. Seems weaker than the earlier one.

The songs from YFLM in this collection were never released as singles and therefore should not be considered "hits." As for the "unreleased" videos, I'm pretty sure I've seen Loco Del Calor and Tell The Truth out there with the MTV-style tag on it. Maybe ALAE will be the banned version with the little people in blackface.

And a little about Friday Music:

Profile:

Established in 2001 by founder and mastering engineer Joe Reagoso. Friday Music is home to a wide array of Classic Rock artists featuring re-issues of classic albums as well as new material from some of Classic Rock's pioneers.

And I found elsewhere that it's another bargain label from the evil Warner Bros. Further reading indicates that their remasters are hit and miss, especially on vinyl. Buyer beware?

AND all these videos are already collected on Napalm Up Yo Ass.

Why would the Skyscraper videos be skipped over anyway as well as That's Life off of EEAS? Like most hits packages, there seems to be no rhyme or reason to it.

Look for it to be in the used CD bin for around 50 cents come December.

Right next to your collection of "Music To Slit Your Wrists By," featuring the Smiths and Echo and the Bunnymen.

Fuck that. Everybody knows any hardcore Smiths fan guts their femoral artery with a steak knife.

You are soooooooooooo 1985.

Ginsu?

Ginsu, Gozinta-u, whatever it takes.

Gozinta-u

That's Hindu for "Black Mother"

Jeez - who compiles these things?? Is that the cover - the pic on their website? It looks like a bargain basement deal if it is. What happened to designing a cover, you know, to make it look like something worth buying ...

And it contains probably the THREE weakest tunes on the otherwise pretty damn good album, Your Filthy Little Mouth ...

For track number one I'd have 'Big Train', which - given that VH were covering old tunes on ADKOT, and with the train on the album cover - woulda been a great rip-it-up opening tune on stage. But it remains buried on an album hardly anyone has ever heard - one of Dave's best.


* Edit * - just read that it was compiled by Dave ...

'No Big Ting'?

Very odd choice......

[chefcraig]

This is dumb. Why not re-issue The Best, add "Coconut Grove" (so you get all of Crazy From The Heat) which was inexplicably left off the first time around, include a couple tracks from DLR Band (the less screechy ones) and Diamond Dave?

Then tack on all of the videos, along with No Holds BBQ. It ain't rocket science, ya know?
