Van Halen - 1982-xx-xx - Don Kirshner's Rock Concert
(DVDFull pro-shot)

Here's another gem from the vaults of Krzquest. Van Halen on none other than the DKRC show via 1982 ! This video document contains 1 promo vid ( Oh , Pretty Woman ) 3 live songs filmed from an unknown location ( the venue has been argued about by fans for years , but I'm convinced nobody really knows where this was filmed. Please correct me if you have updated info ) And 5 interview segments hosted by Jim Ladd @ the home of " Diamond Dave " himself. The interviews are priceless and are in and of themselves worth the DL imho ...

Quality stands as 8.5 video and a solid 9 for audio. There is a VHS noise bar at the bottom of the screen throughout the entire vid , but it is small and not a distraction whatsoever.
