I'm up for that if ya want Slinger, I'm in the UK though so a US member should still shout up if they can help
I'm shit with torrents but can bring the filesize down to 800Mb or so and then we'll host it here on Evo for a few days for any regulars to grab.
Looks like it is us or noone. Send me a pm with your address and I'll get the show to you to upload.

I think Sammy Hagar's best VH album is Balance. I'm surprised no-one has mentioned that here when referring to Van Hagar's more rockin stuff. Not much cheese in the lyrics, and really strong musically as well.
Might have to dig that out for a listen, I forgot how great that CD is.
I agree with you, this was his finest album with the group. The Seventh Seal and Don't Tell Me (What Love Can Do) were excellent and I liked Deja Vu and Baluchitherium as well.
#105 Re: Guns N' Roses » What did Axl consider to be "Big Guns" » 848 weeks ago
The Big Guns for me would be:
Better (the 06 version)
T.W.A.T.
I.R.S. (I know most of you guys would not agree on this one!)
If The World (never thought I'd be sayin this originally!)
#106 Re: The Sunset Strip » Holy Shit Fuck! Chickenfoot's Cd Is Awesome! » 848 weeks ago
... plus add in Eddie's penchant at the time to want to write songs that sounded like Michael McDonald, and it just wasn't my favorite VH time.
That's a good quote. I have to agree with you on that part.
By the way, I've listened more to the album and it has grown on me a bit. By no means a great album or even as good as most stuff with VH Sammy did (imo of course) BUT a good album by today's standards.
I am kind of where BLS is with it now, I like about half the album.
Down the Drain and Get It Up are by far my two favorites.
My Kinda Girl, Sexy Little Thing and Soap on a Rope are good.
Not bad Skippy, compared to most crap-ola that's came out lately I didn't have a problem dropping under 15 bucks for it and feeling like I got my money's worth. Like BLS said, it is a "fun" record.
#107 Re: The Sunset Strip » Holy Shit Fuck! Chickenfoot's Cd Is Awesome! » 848 weeks ago
1984 was the first cassette I bought. It is still one of my favorite albums even with the damn synths.
Damned straight. House of Pain/Drop Dead Legs/Panama...all great stuff.

Eddie "was" one of the greatest guitarists of all time.
Eddie IS one of the greatest guitarist players of all time. PERIOD, a couple bad years and issues means nothing...it's his body of work that makes him one of (if not THE BEST) guitarist's of all time. As long as he is living "was" doesn't work.
This CD is killer! Better than anything Hagar did with Halen. More rockin', less gay keyboards, not so many awful "love" lyrics.
Apparently you only listened to the "hits" then. Sammy's work with VH shined on tracks like "Sucker in a 3-Piece"/"Humans Being"/"The Seventh Seal"/"Source of Infection"/"One Way to Rock" (w/VH not solo)/"A.F.U."/"5150" and "Mine All Mine"...notice NON of these are the "awful" love songs? BTW Skippy I'm not picking on you just disagree with that statment "BETTER THAN ANYTHING HAGAR DID WITH VAN HALEN". I DO agree that the love songs were for the most part SHITOLA however. Personally I STRONGLY prefer Roth over Hagar music-wise in VH.
I just got the new Chickenfoot by the way...well..."eh". So far I found one song I really like "Down the Drain". I'll have to hear more to make a fair call but as of now it's only mediocre.
BTW.... Alice in Chains and Soundgarden WERE the last great bands to come along.

#110 Re: The Sunset Strip » New Megadeth album "DONE"...Get ready Droogies!! » 848 weeks ago
This is great news! Megadeth had a little dip in their greatness with Risk and Cryptic Writings but they have definitely rebounded. Ever since the track "Kill the King" surfaced on Capital Punishment they have refound themselves with a vengeance. The World Needs A Hero/The System Has Failed and United Abominations have all been very welcome additions to the Megadeth arsenal and the new album sounds like it will continue in this tradition!
VERY excited!
