History
Van Halen fansite VHND.com released the official press release announcing the album on February 5, 2015. This was only after the information leaked a couple days earlier and after months of speculation. On March 2, 2015 the album became available for preorder, with "Runnin' With the Devil" and "Panama" being released for purchase on the iTunes Store and viewing on Van Halen's YouTube channel.
The album is Van Halen's first live album with their original lead singer David Lee Roth and current bassist Wolfgang Van Halen. The album features songs from every Roth-fronted Van Halen album, including their 2012 release, A Different Kind of Truth.
According to Eddie Van Halen, the band originally wanted to remix 25 original song demos that Van Halen had done before they were signed to a major label, however, the original tapes could not be found. They then considered releasing recordings of their early club performances, but the sound quality was deemed too poor. As a result, it was decided to record a new live album.
