How much of "5150" did DAVE write?

[Nickdfresh]

Last night I lay awake in bed trying to think of what the name of the the DAVID LEE ROTH version of "Summer Nights" was called. I've heard it was essentially the same song (Dave's harmonies and all) sans the teeny-feel-good lyrics.

I think SARGE once posted what the DLR version is called, but I have forgotten.

Does anybody have these outtakes? Are there any bootlegs of the supposed three ROTH songs that he obviously had input to on "51-Crappy?" Did he ever get any dough for it?

I read a post earlier that said something about "Good Enough" was written with Dave in mind??

Outstanding! I was also wondering last night if he tried to take any of the material to make a EUASB version to directly compete?

But I suppose WARNER BROS. would have squashed that.

DLR didn't give a shit by 5150, REALLY! He needs a new percentage.

Crazy question is, does he want to ease down his unit sales and RETIRE to an endless farewell tour, like KISS, or does he want to do hot, new tunes, with the hardest of the CVH and some covers if DLR Army songs ain't for a new act? I must admit, I bought no DLR, post CVH. That CV is a NAVY thing. Guess he wants THAT to sail away.

Undoubtedly. Combat Records barely let Mustaine get away with his version of "Mechanix" after it showed up on Metallica's "Kill 'em All" as "The Four Horsemen" - and when Mustaine signed on to Capitol, the answer for any original versions was a resounding "No", so I'd imagine Warner would have certainly followed suit.

I still laugh at how Metallica milked Mustaine songs for two fucking records.

[zeronumber]

I highly doubt he got any royalties from it...Hell, Dave had to sue vh a few years back because they were fucking him over on the catalog he was on!!!

I think Mechanix is better than The Four Horsemen, lyricswise at least considering the music is the same fucking thing. I noticed they were the same song a few days ago, actually. My dad is going through this big Megadeth phase and downloaded a bunch of their stuff and when I first heard it, all I could think was "This is The Four Horsemen...only not."
