They can say what they want about Michael Anthony. He plays his ass off, has great stage presence, and is one of the best backup vocalists that there ever was.
Michael Anthony is a Very Big Intricate part of Van Halen and is Van Halen from the Very 1st Album in 78’ No One can sing ‘Back-Up’s’ like Him and Eddie Together; and to Fallow the Guitar MASTER is Not an Easy Task but He Did…. I Only Wished Eddie VH didn’t Have to Treat Him SO Poorly in the End
Great playlist. I love it! To anybody reading this, I pray that whatever is hurting you or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. May the dark thoughts, the overthinking, and the doubt exit your mind may clarity replace confusion. may peace and calmness fill your life
Me too! I was blessed. 80K twice in the Cotton Bowl. First time, Eddie and Sammy were trading licks on opposite ends of the end zone. Bad ass. I had a coworker turn 19 the other day. I wished him a belated b-day. He asked me what i did at 19. We got Van Halen. They get Drake. Doesn't quite seem fair.

Wow didn't know this existed. It sounds fantastic. Dave was crazy for walking away from this band. Thank God Sammy jumped in. I'm blown away this performance is awesome. 🏁
I got to see VH only twice. I saw them on 6/8/84 during the 1984 tour with DLR and again on 3/25/1995 for the Balance tour with Sammy. I initially caught Eddie's bandana but then some asshole ripped it out of my hand two seconds later! I was so pissed as that would have been a great keepsake. LOL
You need to be schooled as David Lee Roth cam play an instrument too including guitar and piano and he is actually quite a decent guitarist himself he just did not like playing electric or really playing guitar and singing guitar at the same time except for ice-cream man. Where Sammi enjoys playing and singing at the same time and that I think was part of the issue later on with Eddie he wanted to again do the old Dave stuff Sammi didn't. Which is part of what still divides so many fans. As for Dave during his first stint with van halen he was not consistent live and could often sound our of key and did nit song the sounds like the record or put any effort in live to actaully sing. But that changed when he returned in 2007 and people then complained why is Dave singing higher than the record now when I actually liked Dave putting effort in to sing those songs VS his first stint.
Long long term fan of VH. God I miss EVH. Never EVER BE ANOTHER LIME HIM EVVVVVER!!! He inspired me to move from bass at age 8 to move to guitar 6 strings in high school. Now 60+ years old....9 guitars 2 basses and a 100 watt fender champion amp dialed in with all EVH'S pedals onboard in my sound studio.....yeah....he will never be too far from my thoughts when I pull up a concert performance like this! Pure genius and theyre tight as a rubber band with that thundering drum set of Alex's & Mikes pounding bass lines! One of their best performances Ive ever listened & played to! One hour and 12 minutes of pure perfection! RIP EDDIE. WE MISS U BROTHER. Your namesake legacy is in good hands with Wolfgang whom you loved dearly!! EVH 4EVER!!!!❤🎸🎼🎹🎤
42:54 Michael and Eddie vocals always amaze me at how HUGE they sound. It does not get better than this "background" singing. Their voice blend perfectly and become like a celestial choir much bigger than two people singing
That's why they worked so well Live even with uncle Dave (who never sung in key, beat or even the same as the time before), but with Sammy who sung the songs like they should and hit every key - it became magic!!! This live recording (no matter what fixes was done to it in post) is one of the best VH live recordings and they were really at the top here!!! Having Sammy on guitar on selected tracks really worked and I think Eddie loved having another guitar to play against but for some reason Sammy stopped playing guitar soon after this... Van Halen was a fantastic band and they really did great productions, before Eddie started drinking too much... I'm glad Michael and Sammy are still playing and singing together and they can still hit all notes!
Being young and hearing Summer Nights blasting out a radio on a summer night back in the late 80s was absolutely priceless. Hearing the song takes me back for second.
Wish VH would have played more Sammy tunes when they were together! Their concerts were AWESOME! Always love hearing Edwards take on Sammy tunes! Edward Van Halen is a monster on guitar! I collected all the VH CDs - all eras, went to their concerts and learned how to play the VH music on guitar! Thanks VH!
At their very best . And Sammy v David Just see the difference in this opening track what Sammy brought to the band his playing and vocal ability. Love both guys and what they did with VH but Sammy was a whole other league for me.
Literally any singer would be better than Sammy. Van Halen stopped after Dave left. Dunno what this video is, but it ain't nothing compared to the Van Halen of the 70s and early 80s.
Saw Sammy three times David once. And Roth when the band did not have Michael on bass so it was a different band. But sound wise Sammy the best Roth talks a lot.
I went to go see Wolfgang's band open for Gun's & Roses. Wolf & band were fantastic! I was bored out of my mind listening to G & R (never a big fan), but wanted to see Slash play. Great player, but also beyond boring to watch. I was very disappointed. There truly is no one like Ed, as a guitar player & performer on stage. The joy he exudes is so genuine, fun & infectious. Such a tragedy he's gone...far, far too early. Such a gift he was.
Sammy looks stressed and worried doing solos, understandable as you’re up there with the GOAT of guitar players. Love Eddie’s smiles and I sure do miss my idol. VH fan forever!
@@tyronejefforeillyramirez7961 Yep the Frank Erwin Center. I grew up in Lago Vista and going to all those concerts from 1982-89 as we did was a treat. Frank Erwin Center, City Coliseum and The Back Room were our concert halls during that time period.
A second guitarist was the missing Gem in the VH saga. What a stunning performance! Reminds me of Judas Priest solos switching back and forth in some of their songs.
So much optimism instead of a sense of darkness in Van Halen’s style of playing with Sammy Hagar. Happier times. What’s not to like? 5150 the song defines these guys. Good times.
... Heard that Sammy play 🎸 pretty good but never thought or imagined he wud be that good.... & yes, he's also a very good singer. But do you pple think that Van Halen would've hit that big like they did early on if they'd started out with Haggar and not with Roth???🤔...
As an old school fan...Yep, that's a fan of the DLR years, Sammy is 1/2 of the Van Halen line up. VH1 to 1984, masterclass. VH 5150 to Balance, proof it wasn't just production magic and a fluke. Before I die, or Eddie, I'd love to see a concert where both Sammy and Dave sing. Eddies son is Eddies son, but with Mike would just be fitting. For me it was hearing 1984 as a kid that hooked me, then about 6 months later I heard 5150...Fuck me I was spoiled...
Always SH vs DLR…both guys had strengths and weaknesses. The thing about Dave their early catalog was so badass. The shows with Sammy were tight. The albums with Sammy were a mixed bag.
Van Hagar we called it. It was different but fun music. Both Van Halen and Van Hagar were great depending on the party you're at. I prefer Van Halen but love hearing anything Hagar does.
Van Halen leveled up when they brought Sammy in the band and this concert proves it. Vocals greatly improved, song writing improved, versatility improved, and overall sound quality improved. This era was VH at their peak.

東京ドーム、アリーナ、エディの目の前三列目で観てたけど、爆音過ぎて一週間耳鳴りが取れなかった、青春のいい想い出です。素晴らしいLIVE
That's Awesome 😎 I saw them in 1984 and my ears rang for 3 days.
Van Halen The most ultimate Rock Band of all time R.I.P EVH
One of the greatest live concerts ever
Sammy just plain FK'n rocks!
Sammie is the BEST--Gives his ALL❤
To think that literally everybody being born from now on will never have the privilege of walking the earth at the same time as Eddie van Halen.
I got to see VH only twice. I saw them on 6/8/84 during the 1984 tour with DLR and again on 3/25/1995 for the Balance tour with Sammy. I initially caught Eddie's bandana but then some asshole ripped it out of my hand two seconds later! I was so pissed as that would have been a great keepsake. LOL
That's a little much
What a huge difference it makes to have a lead singer that can also play an instrument!
And a singer that can actually sing
Both of you are apparently deaf and love mediocre soft rock. Also, this is freaking Van Halen, it doesn't need 2 guitarists.
... It's a plus point even if Eddie could've handled it alone easily all by himself...as Sammy's 🎸 never came in the way of Eddie's...
You need to be schooled as David Lee Roth cam play an instrument too including guitar and piano and he is actually quite a decent guitarist himself he just did not like playing electric or really playing guitar and singing guitar at the same time except for ice-cream man.

I never got to see Van Halen I wish I could of they r one of my favs
Probably the best eq’s of a live VH concert!! Tops.
Sammy gives his ALL IN EVERY PERFORMANCE, A total credit to the music industry!❤😂🎉😊😅😅😅❤
but he couldn't sing early van halen songs so why bother getting a vocalist who can't sing their entire catalog
42:54 Michael and Eddie vocals always amaze me at how HUGE they sound. It does not get better than this "background" singing. Their voice blend perfectly and become like a celestial choir much bigger than two people singing
to me it was always the secret weapon of this band...those chorus harmonies

Insane how good these guys were!

Saw This Tour. IT WAS EPIC. THAT IS ALL!!
Live Without A Net... The BEST CONCERT VIDEO.... EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
This is the OU812 tour from Japan and it's way better
Eddie is amazing with those rifts.
Man … 1989. I miss it.
Sammy's vocals and energy is awesome here... My favorite verion of Van Halen...😊
At their very best . And Sammy v David Just see the difference in this opening track what Sammy brought to the band his playing and vocal ability. Love both guys and what they did with VH but Sammy was a whole other league for me.
Agreed... they became a much classy band.
The only thing Sammy ever did better than Dave was play the guitar
@@mcathawk1490 Sammy blew Dave away vocally 100 Xs over...and held his own w/Ed as a grtist.
Dave was a performer, Sammy was a musician.
Sammy is a better singer but near the frontman that Roth was. The brothers knew they needed Roth
OH YEAH ! The best lineup right here!!! Sammy Hagar was so good for them . RIP Eddie ❤
I’m going to one of Sammy’s concerts this August for his Van Halen tribute and I’m so excited for it!
I was lucky enough to see both versions of V/H and both were equally great. Just two different styles.
Agreed! And there’s no reason why VH fans can’t love both versions for their separate strengths!
Yes! Both bands were great!
Damn, they look so happy here
We all did
One of Sammys farts has more talent than DLR could ever hope for
Literally any singer would be better than Sammy. Van Halen stopped after Dave left. Dunno what this video is, but it ain't nothing compared to the Van Halen of the 70s and early 80s.

Holy shit! Way to burn the house down on the opening song! 😄
in their prime! epic concert! wish I was there!
The boys were kicking it tonight right from the start
今見るとエディーがギターで、ギターがエディーになってる。うまいギタリストというレベルを遥かに超えて、エディーヴァンヘイレン という人がサウンドそのものになってる。凄過ぎる。世界中の何百人といる名ギタリストの中で、こういう域にまで達していたのは、ジミヘンとベックとエディーだけだと思う。
AND Joe Satriani!
So true...100%...i would add in Darrell Abbott. Translation
42 Million Records Sold with Sammy . 🇺🇸🤙🏽✌🏽👍🏽😎

Thank you for sharing this video....🙏🙏

I always say it's their most underrated song ,and 5150
I don't know what else to say I love Van Halen I like the old stuff but Sammy is kicking it
They definitely Van Halenized Sammy's song!
Goat stuff here
Great video.👍.
Hot Summer Noghts!!!
frikken mind blowing. sadly, those days are gone...
Rewatching videos from the ‘heyday.” 23 years ago. “Where did the years go?”
Supreme playing on 5150 by the master Eddie
Sammy looks stressed and worried doing solos, understandable as you’re up there with the GOAT of guitar players. Love Eddie’s smiles and I sure do miss my idol. VH fan forever!
Sammy can f-ing play. They should have arranged more duo guitar solos.
The Hagar era did give you more synth but also added an extra guitar so you could incorporate the keyboard more. Still great to beat Van Halen fan.
too much keyboard though
Eddie was at the top of his game this tour.
Thank you "carlygtr". Van Vaken eas crisp that night!!
Good Old Days

As much as I love the DLR era they were far tighter live with Sammy
I agree and more energy and enthusiasm.
yeah dlr was poor live and very unprofessional, but more edgy and exciting, which found its way in the studio, but too clowny at times

Nah, this was the beginning of the end for VH. They were one of the most badass bands in the 80s were they would become adult contemporary in the 90s.
