Title: Roth Fans Get Ripped Off
Product review: Even though there are some of the great songs from the Roth-Era, I cannot reccomend this collection. I can understand a balance between Roth and Hagar era songs, however the three new songs sound as though they were put together without regard for quality, and the real kicker is Sammy Hagar singing Roth-era songs live. Who wants that? I can see acknowledging the "Right Here Right Now Live" cd, but put Sammy singing Sammy-era songs or they could have put that cover of The Who's "Won't Get Fooled Again" on it. It is a blatant attempt to erase roth's connection with the music of that era. They want us to believe that Sammy is an adequate replacement for Roth, and it isn't true. No fan of Roth Era Van Halen should buy this cd. The track list is very similar to "Best of Vol 1", and it includes the great Roth songs from 1986. Accept no substitutes. Van Halen is: David Lee Roth, Edward Van Halen, Alex Van Halen, and Michael Anthony!
