My goodness, that REELZ special was HORRIBLE.
The bias and blame towards DLR was incredibly unfair. Yes, we all know that EVH and DLR butted heads. Yes, we know that DLR's actual singing voice was not great.
But they make a point of emphasis about DLR being drunk at the '83 US Festival? THE WHOLE FUCKING BAND WAS HAMMERED, TRUNK!
They made DLR the fall guy from the start. You could tell that by the previews when they only interviewed Hagar and Mike. Then Trunk says he was interviewed, and that just made matters worse. Fortunately, Greg Renoff held his own and was actually objective.
Then, they start on the Hagar era, and they say an absolutely blatant LIE that 5150 was the best-selling VH album of all-time! As a refresher for those who don't recall, VH I and 1984 sold 10 million albums each, 5150 only sold 6 million.
The only good think from this terrible show was, at least for me, that I had never seen the Stockholm 1984 video clips. I had only heard audio.
