Van Halen [1977.12.20] Dressed To Kill [SBD]

 

Van Halen - Dressed To Kill

(Nostalgia Records : PRE 162) 

Pasadena Civic Auditorium

Pasadena, California, USA

Tuesday December 20th, 1977

Soundboard Recordings

Encoded: FLAC & MP3@320 Kbps

Tracks 1-11 Oct. 15, 1977 Pasadena Civic. The only difference is that all of the talking between songs has been edited out, so none of Dave's on-stage banter on this disc. Other than that, it's a great sounding recording. Ed is in fine form as usual.

Tracks 12 + 13 Demo tape produced by Gene Simmons of KISS. No other taped copies of these two songs can touch these tracks in terms of sound quality. This is a great opportunity to hear two great songs in their early forms, complete with some great overdub work by Ed.

Tracks 14 + 15 Live New Year's Eve 1977 at Whisky a Go Go, West Hollywood. As far anyone knows, these are unreleased originals, not cover tunes. Sound quality isn't quite as good as the other live tracks, but still are pretty good given their age.
