[DLR_EngineRoom]

This is MY idea of a REAL Van Halen Greatest Hits package....

Would you buy this?

Tell me 'bout it.....

[fanofdave]

nice work!

maybe that classic cd set will be available when
dave and the boys can get it together and put
a real van halen tour on the road.....

[guwapo_rocker]

It's missing the bonus concert DVD's!!!!!!!

[TwoFoolsAMinute]

Well, most of the songs I would have included are there, however, I would not have grouped them so. Mostly because the instrumentals are generally intros to other songs, and should be dispersed throughout the other CD's.

I already have the first six... so why buy the greatest hits?

Yeah, you have to leave the instrumentals in place, most of them
lead into a song..

Apart from that, that looks great !!! DLR-ER

[CROWBAR]

Kick ass DLR Engineroom! :killer:

[Switch84]

:D Oh, my GOD! I'd camp out at Sam Goody for that one!

[DLR_EngineRoom]

see the thing is.....for a Roth fan.....

EVERY SONG FROM THE FIRST 6 ALBUMS ARE CONSIDERED GREATEST HITS, INCLUDING COVERS

Now that's a set to earn my hard earned dollars! It's also good enough for a 5, my friend.


It'd have been nice if the re-masters of the first 6 had contained some bonus stuff. That would have been the perfect opportunity for some demos and whatnot. Of course, that'll never happen. Certainly they'll do it for the hagar records, but the Dave stuff is, i fear, lost to the ages.....

[tobinentinc]

It wouldn't be considered a greatest hits with all those songs, it would be called a boxed set, or complete studio recordings. Something along those lines.

[Cathedral]

LMMFAO...

I went to Amazon and reviewed the BOBW set, lol...I had a little fun leaving the review.

Feel free to join me in countering the "Sheep" giving that bullshit high praise.

BOBW Reviews at Amazon! (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000286S8S/ref=olp_product_details/103-7650151-7422201?%5Fencoding=UTF8&v=glance)

Roth On!

[TongueNGroove]

If you actually took all the "Good" songs from your 6 CD's you'd only have enough to fill 1 CD.

[Terry]

Sure, I'd pick that up.

Would like to see more previously unreleased material on it, or exchange a dozen or so of the studio tracks for live versions. Seems redundant for my collection to have virtually every classic studio cut on it, as I'd only really be interested in disc 6 (but I'd still get it anyway hee hee)

You should do a thread on a video companion for the set.

Nice post

[tjvhou812]

just the name van halen, sells

Still sells a few copies. Shameful that they've fallen this far off the radar. The name VAN HALEN used to mean something, besides POWER BALLADS for middle aged hair farmers.

The CRACK OF YOUR MOMMA'S ASS BABY!!!

Nice to see you've been let out of the pen. A VAN HALEN BOX SET with ANY unreleased CLASSIC material would be very well recieved.

they let me out, but i just couldnt leave....lol

mmmm....yeah for a Hagarita, sure...only one CD.

But if you're an authentic Van Halen fan, which by the way, doesn't include any of those anti-hetero songs from the following 4 albums by Van Hagar...then the CD I posted was only to prove that ALL, yes ALL the songs released on the first 6 CDs ARE GREATEST HITS - COVERS, INSTRUMENTALS AND ALL.

Oh and by the way, RIGHT NOW VAN HAGAR STILL SUCKS SHIT!

I was thinkin the same thing... If the Greatest Hits is 6 CD's, and the only good VanHalen is 6 CD's, er... ummm...... I would love to see the bootlegs, and demo material, though...

[franksters]

There should be a different pace to each disc,like slowersongs ,faster, ect..I also like the idea of the cover cd.

and for the hagarita thing it should be sold SEPARATLY
