What they also don't realize is that over half the riffs if not more you hear on Van Hagar music were riffs that were already created during the Dave era. Damn Eddie got so lazy, there was no progression. He was just re-hashing Dave stuff.
Here are specific examples:
1. Good Enough (riff can be found during ATBL from New Haven 3/24/84)
2. Pleasure Dome (opening riff can be found Sao Paulo 1/21/83 during SGMAD/I'm So Glad jam; second riff is very similar to riff in 1980 solo)
3. Top of the World (we all know this one, riff can be found at the end of "Jump")
4. The Dream Is Over (VERY similar riff during Caracas 1/16/83 SGMAD/I'm So Glad jam)
5. Can't Stop Lovin' You (tiny portion of it at tail end of Ed's solo--riff can be found during Caracas 1/16/83 SGMAD/I'm So Glad Jam)
6. Take Me Back (opening riff was a song from the club days called "No More Waiting").
7. Mine All Mine--sounds very similar in general to the keyboard solo from the 1984 tour
8. Judgment Day--middle riff of arpeggios sounds similar to arps he was doing in the middle of the 1984 guitar solo
9. Right Now--can be found on the Ripley demo as well as subtly in the 1984 keyboard solo
10. Source Of Infection--opening rhythm is basically the same rhythm as "Sinner's Swing"
When I get more boots I'm sure I'll find even more rip-offs from the Dave era.
whoa!.....there's a diehard fan for ya....nice work!Comment
