What songs on ADKOT were originally recorded in 2000?

[VAiN]

Not the pasture?

[ELVIS]

Exactly...

[ELVIS]

I don't care though...

Every song, every friggin' song (sans tattoo, of course), sounds like real Van Halen to me...

Even with Dave doing all the vocals...

Even without Michael Anthony....

The sound is muddy, but the songs and the intensity are there...

China Town certainly originated in the 2000 sessions, because I specifically remember that title being mentioned at that time.

Yeah, the old VHND printed a DLR update in 1999 that said he was planning to do another album, and that supposedly Ted Templeman was going to produce it. Chinatown was one of the song titles listed.


The Return Of Ted

September 27, 1999 - David Lee Roth has just informed The Inside that he is very pleased to have Ted Templeman as the producer for his next CD.

Dave is keeping his current band and road crew for the next album and tour, both out in early 2000. John Lowery will return as the main songwriting collaborator, although Bart Walsh and Terry Kilgore may also contribute to songwriting. Walsh and Kilgore are expected to handle all guitar duties.

Twelve songs have been written so far. Working titles include Stomping Grounds, Use My Hand, I Won't Look and China Town. There will also be a surprise cover song on the new album, which is yet to be titled.

The DLR Band will head back into the studio one week after the current tour finishes (the last date is at the House of Blues in Las Vegas on October 2.)
