The Genius of Eddie Van Halen - Definitive Live Compilation

[Seshmeister]

Nice new(ish) compilation of Ed live stuff.


*Warning in some places Hagar is being Hagar in the background.

That sure seems like a hell of a lot of fantastic video footage that "should" have been released... It's almost criminal to not share that with the world.

Look! No S P A M M Y

Like i'm gonna watch that crust...

Fairly good performance from a bunch of teenagers...

[Von Halen]

Say what you want about Clichegar ruining it, but the clips with Ed in the pink pants, he is on fucking fire.

Love the bluesy solo from the III tour, around the 9:00 minute mark. Always thought they should have done an entire blues album with Roth.

It is criminal that more Pro Shot live shows haven't been released.

Great song selection, if nothing else. Probably the first time Kristy has ever heard that song.

[Kristy]

Despite that song stupid sexist overtones, it's one of Eddie's best riffs. Eddie did miss his calling though. He would have been a fantastic blues player - see how S P A M M Y fucked everything up having Eddie play bland over commercialized shit?

[Seshmeister]

Despite that song stupid sexist overtones,

Sexist? I think it's empowering giving out a positive body image that having a giant butt is fine.

[Kristy]

Again, this is why you're such a slave.

[ZahZoo]

How about a little Romeo Delight... Another new generation tipping their hat to the genius of EVH.

Doesn't she know she's supposed to "forget the fucking words" in the second verse?
