[Dave King]

Stay Frosty and AS is.

[Little Dreamer]

Blood & Fire

[KS 5150]

As is & then China Town

[DFVH5150]

As Is

A real shame DLR never wanted to this one live.

SUCH an asshole thing for Dave to do. If he's gonna fuck around with "China Town"'s lyrics nightly and read the lyrics on stage for "Hang 'Em High" on a piece of paper, why couldn't he do it for this? Or, even better, I don't know--learn the fuckin' thing?!

Ug this is hard.

As Is (total package) my #1 pick

Stay Frosty / Outta Space (lyrics)

China Town (drums)

You and Your Blues (Wolf & Ed backup vox)

Blood & Fire (Best revived/revisited tune)

Big River / Trouble with Never (Best Ed freewheeling solos/complimentary licks)

So my only wish - if everybody had know it was going to be the last studio album - that the car horns from RWTD would've played out at the end with Ed's divebomb on Beats Workin.

I don't care about the production debates (this album needs to be listened to via MP3's for best sonic quality ironically in my humble opinion), reworked material (name me a VH studio record where some riff from previous Eddie works didn't show up - ala Rodin creating works that would ultimately culminate in the Gate of Hell - ) or whose playing bass (Wolf kicked ass on this record and the live album and I give him mad credit for what he did in VH) this record goes in my top 5 for VH. -drops mic, picks up riot shield, and prepares for the backlash-

[Sam Vs. Dave]

Surprised there is no love for this one, but: Stay Frosty.

Great lyrics by Dave, not one but two ripping EVH solos, and a nasty groove. Love that song.

She's the Woman would have been my second choice.

+1

Except switch the order of those two.

Territorial pissings, Ed has songs he also did not want to play and how writing for ADKOT went etc.... it was not a know the lyric thing but a typical fuck you no fuck you between the two grown ass men acting like kids. Really had nothing to do with the song itself. If Dave was talking he would list tunes Ed refused and then Ed would seem like the bad guy. Reality both were acting like children, welcome to a rock band.

[Raldo]

You and Your Blues

[Dutchie5150]

11, not 21.

And "As Is" for me.

I would still love to see how the hell that D2H tailpiece works.

As Is
Stay Frosty
You and Your Blues

[noise next door]

As Is is almost a country riff

Interesting, but jeez...

They should have Pleasure-Domed that shit and just did an instrumental.

[DRFC]

As Is
Stay Frosty
You and Your Blues

These were my three, in the same order. Love that they are new songs, felt like the band was back and able to create again. Wish it didn't stop.

Great version from The Atomic Punks ...
