Everybody loses their fastball someday. I still think Dave is entertaining and a great frontman. He moves better at 65 than these so-called "frontmen" of today who are 30 years old. But I agree, his scream in the old days was bone shattering.
16:59 - Dave rules. He's letting out the wicked screams all through this jam...sounds like Halford. Sheesh. :) The whole section starting at 16:20 is killer. Dave and Eddie are doing some wild shit. The whole bass intro on this track dispels any notion Anthony was learning bass lines from Eddie. Eddie couldn't even deal with key changes. Anthony dumbed his playing down to the max to to cater to Eddie. His early work in the demo days showed he was a formidable bass player...hardly sitting on the root. Eddie couldn't get off the root note most of the time. He still kicks ass, but he's talking some seriously wack shit in that Billboard interview. He thinks he was doing Quincy Jones favors...uh....no. ;)
Fucking Lost Control!! Not sure why people want to compare, Eddie with Randy Rhoads?? After listening to this, I come to realize that Randy couldn't carry Eddies Guitar Case.
I concur Jack. It's Bass and Drums backing. There are some keyboards (Fender Rhodes I think) in And the cradle will rock. That may be what Chuck is referring to.
" Cradle. . . " had Michael performing on the keys while Eddie handled the guitar. Also, Eddie brought his echoplex with him which was set to a longer delay rate to " fill the space " behind the solos. This is the band in its peak. Of all of the boots I've heard, this one and several of the '78 and '81 shows are AMAZING. These guys were on top of the world then and you can really hear it from this show.
Saw them on the VH2 tour and was incredible. I then saw them on this tour at the Newcastle show and was no where near as good and i hated the WACF album....bought the album about 10 years after this for the collection, as at the time there were allot of better albums about but the live show was good.
And The Cradle Will Rock is amazing!!!! The whole show was spectacular!
Saw them in Oakland and San Francisco, in ‘80, ‘81, and ‘82 … when they were mighty!
This was the first tour l saw them!!! Amazing 👍👍👍
The Mighty Van Halen !
I was there for both nights. Epic shit
Best Drum, Bass, Guitar Sound ever
Insane guitar sound.. 😀
Michael Anthony hit every high note on every tour that David Lee Roth was ever on he made David Lee Roth a vocal Superstar
all the world must listen this...to consider how van halen was at his peak.
Van Halen are Rock Royalty
I remember getting this bootleg back in the day..... water rusts. water sinks battleships man
No one had the scream like Dave. Shame he lost it.

There needs to be a CZcams "Concert volume" option

That's what Dave wore at the Fabulous Forum in LA I have been looking for this. His hair was bleached out also. Awesome show.
Jesus Fuck this is incredible. What an amazing guitar player. Blows my mind every time.
!!!!!!!!!! Thank You, VH Village!!!!!!!
this guitar is a killer.
I dont know why in 1982 tour the sound was so different :(
This is just off the hook - lightning in a bottle type stuff. No one was this great in 1980.
Holy..... Shit.....
when they played heavy rock

@@robertcarlson9052 Nice reply.
After seeing both live within a years time in 80-81....I'd say you are clueless. Randy was easily on par, if not the next progressive step above.
This is greta quality....Is there a way to download this to my computer as a MP3 or MP4 sound file??
sounds like there is another guitarist playing with Eddie (there is rhythm behind the solos)
just Michael Anthony laying down some nice bass chords
