Captain Rock's version of Panama is one of coolest covers ever!

By far the most inspired VH cover album. However, it is not for everyone. The artists take some fairly daring creative leaps with the material, which may be viewed as sacrilege by many of the VH faithful.
The Sade-like version of "Everybody Wants Some" is outstanding.

Yep - my vote for best. I like Sam Black Church's, "Romeo Deight" and Cherry Bombs "Feel Your Love Tonight"... among others. Originally Posted by Number 47

2000 -Tribute To Van Halen is now available as Little Guitars.
That and Everbody Wants Some - A Loose Interpretation Of The Musical Genius Of Van Halen are the only two I bothered with.
Both are good for different reasons.“And what we have at our fingertips is arguably one of the greatest high tenor voices ever – that was in Michael Anthony. In our tiny little corner of the universe, that voice is as identifiable as the high voice in Earth, Wind & Fire, as identifiable as the high voice in the Beach Boys. Van Halen is an indelicate house blend of both – that’s intentionally. So I would always look forward to that reunion.” - David Lee Roth

I liked what I heard of the bluegrass VH tribute "Strummin' With The Devil." For the most part the musicianship and arrangements were outstanding.

I agree. If you can get past the fact that it is bluegrass and just appreciate the musicianship involved, it is a pretty interesting listen. Not to say I spin it all day long, but I actually like a few of the interpretations. Originally Posted by AndrewThomas.net

If I don't respond to you it means I have you on ignore, which means you are a douchenozzle.

David Lee Roth did the impossible. He made Van Halen better. Deal with it!

I have a feeling Tulsi Gabbard will last the longest in Trump's cabinet and will eventually take over MAGA when he's out of office. Sorry Vance, but he's milquetoast. Tulsi is the future!
