    Michael Anthony audio interview with Adam Carolla

    Hat-tip to VHND (see how I did that, VHND ??)

    Van Halen News Desk | Michael Anthony guests on Adam Carolla

    From AdamCorolla.com:

    Adam Corolla and guest Michael Anthony rocked out another podcast today!

    70 minutes of interesting conversation about the early days of Van Halen, and, of course, Chickenfoot.

    Quite funny that Michael’s memory had Van Halen releasing more studio albums with Sammy than with Dave!

    Yet the facts are, Van Halen released 6 studio albums with David Lee Roth and 4 with Sammy Hagar. The 6 Dave-era albums have sold, in total, roughly twice as many copies as the total Sammy-era albums, both US and worldwide.

      Or if you don't wish to devote a solid hour listening to the interview, you can hear it broken up into ten minute segments at Youtube.

        I can't believe he screwed up the # of albums done with Roth, said they did more with Bette....

          Actually, pretty good interview... Not very many politically correct answers...

              Maybe he's thinking of the Live albums and the lame BOV's.

                  Yeah, he also said that his reaction when he first met "Roth" was "get this homo away from me". A little Chickenfoot has gone to his head, methinks. Subtract "Anthony" from Van Halen and what is lost? Ever wondered why there never has been an Anthony solo album? Cos he contributed nada to the tunes - Ed and Dave are the crucial two. Fucking bassplayer.

                  Subtract Dave from Van Halen and you wonder if they would ever even had the gumption to get into Hollywood clubland, never mind what followed. Bassplayer goes on about "after Roth" VH was about four personalities - surely he means NO fuckin personalities!

                  The constant PR spin that VH with Bette Midler were more successful is getting tiring as well. All this bullshit that until Spammy they were more "underground", which bassplayer is peddling ... Total bullshit attempt to rewrite history.

                      Classic example of fans know more than the actual artist...

                      Imagine someone posting here that there were only 5 CVH albums...

                            It honestly is getting fucking old. The numbers are what they are. No dispute. Can't rewrite history. Mike will coddle up to whomever is currently signing his paycheck. If he were in the reunion and back in VH, we would be hearing how much he always loved and respected Dave, and just hung out with Sammy as a buffer to help out Ed & Alex.

                              Adam Corolla seems like a douche...
                              Why settle for something you have, if it's not as good as something you're out to get?
