REVIEW:

Were you one of those persons who felt betrayed when he bought Van Halen's Best Of Video or later DVD because they left out all the good stuff we hoped for? Well skip anger therapy classes after all these years as they got what they deserved. A BOOTLEG DVD of ALL their classic promo videos!  NO, no lousy TV broadcasts with cut ends and beginnings, Vh-1 or MTV Logos and mediocre quality. This is a KILLER!! No need for an official release anymore, here you have it all the videos complete, uncut, uncensored in MINT quality on ONE DVD! And as a bonus, you get a slew of stunning David Lee Roth videos. And again Apocalypse Sound didn't take the easy way here...left out were the obvious "California Girls", "Yankee Rose", etc. Instead, AS opted for the rare videos from the later Roth albums in his solo career. Including all the videos of his superb Filthy little Mouth album aswell as the very rare "Shoo Bop" video (this one is not from Magna Carta's files though, this one is a COMPLETE VH-1 broadcast).

I won't go into every single video on this DVD but personal highlights are the (actual live) performance videos of "Dance the Night Away", "Bottom's Up", "Hear About It Later" and "Unchained"! And the hilarious "Shoo Bop" video of Roth, as well as his "Night Life" and "Sensible Shoes" videos.

A MUST HAVE for any classic rock and Van Halen fan. Seek this one out!!

 

 


I agree with the review above. The fact of the matter is there is zero live Dave footage (CD or DVD) that has been commercially released. This DVD makes up for that because the quality rivals an official release. Highly recommended!
