Beth Extreme – Millennium 069 493 165-2 1 12/01/1911:47 AM Extreme The Best Of Extreme 20th Century Masters The Millennium Collection (CD Folder) Played on Top 40 radio and at countless weddings in 1991, the acoustic ballad “More Than Words” hit #1, went gold, and put Extreme on the musical map. It also undoubtedly confused the hell out of some of the two million-plus people who bought Pornograffitti, looking for more of the same. Truth be told, Extreme is a funk-metal band that just happened to hit all the right chords with an uncharacteristic foray into unplugged territory, and to define them by a single, though memorable song does a disservice to their considerable accomplishments. Extreme’s members traveled in overlapping circles on the mid-’80s music scene in Boston. Vocalist Gary Cherone and drummer Paul Geary were in a band called Dream, while Nuno Bettencourt had gained a reputation as a guitar wizard in outfits like Myth and Sinful. Cherone met Bettencourt in the summer of ’85 and invited him to replace two imminently-departing axemen, and the two quickly became a formidable lyricist-composer team. The band’s self-created video for “Mutha (Don’t Wanna Go To School Today)” won an MTV Basement Tapes competition that fall, got into rotation, and upped label interest in the band.

  • Eddie Van Halen 1955–2020 Remembering
    FEATURE EDDIE VAN HALEN 1955–2020 REMEMBERING Eddie Van Halen passed on 6 October at the age of 65, and the outpouring of emotion from fans and musicians alike only serves to confirm what a unique guitar talent he was. Rock Candy Mag pays tribute to EVH with a heartfelt opinion piece from respected Los Angeles-based critic Bob Lefsetz, a personal appreciation of Eddie’s craft by legendary guitarist Steve Vai, Rock Candy boss Derek Oliver’s insightful recollections of seeing The Great Man in action back in the ’70s, and a technical explanation of Eddie’s abilities from our in-house shredder Oliver Fowler… AND THE CRADLE WILL no longer rock. That’s my ‘1984’ that broke the band wide, I mean to everybody. favourite Van Halen song. It sounds so alive, but Eddie Van Halen isn’t. He paid his dues.

  • Agenda Report
    Agenda Report October 26, 2020 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: City Manager SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF LOCAL OPPORTUNITIES TO COMMEMORATE EDWARD L. VAN HALEN RECOMMENDATION: It is recommend that the City Council consider providing direction as to an appropriate means of commemorating Edward L. Van Halen. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: This staff report provides information regarding potential efforts that the City can undertake to recognize and honor Eddie Van Halen, a former Pasadena resident who went on to become one of the all-time greatest guitar players in Rock & Roll history. BACKGROUND: On October 6, 2020, the legendary guitarist Eddie Van Halen succumbed to his battle with throat cancer. Van Halen was the co-founder and main songwriter of the award­ winning band, Van Halen, a rock group that got its start in Pasadena in the 1970s. Since his passing, the City has received several requests and suggestions from the community to do or name something in Mr. Van Halen's honor to recognize both his local connection to Pasadena, as well as the impact that his artistry had on music. The Van Halen family emigrated from the Netherlands to Pasadena in 1962 and settled in a house on Las Lunas Street. The two Van Halen children, Eddie and Alex, attended Hamilton Elementary School where they performed for the first time in a student band called "The Broken Combs." By the early 1970s, the Van Halen boys attended Pasadena City College where, in a scoring· & arranging class, they met future Van Halen front man David Lee Roth. Together, with Arcadia resident Michael Anthony, they formed the group Van Halen and began playing local venues from backyard parties to the Civic Auditorium.

  • Prince Puts out on His Latest Vinyl Newest Halen Musically Tasty
    Page 4, SIDELINES, Wednesday, June 8, 1988 Jlii v.«S;;;:i¥i¥' & :>>*:■• 3S Newest Halen musically tasty By DAVE CHANDLER Entertainment Writer Well kids, it's finally here, the long-awaited new album by Van Hagar, Van Hefflen, I mean Van Halen. What a catchy little tide it has, OU812, pretty clever huh? OU812 is the eigth Van Halen album or second one A.D. (after Dave). The bottom line to this album is thet it rocks. What is so great about OU812 is that it is not packed with the commercialism found in most of today's hard rock i albums. Now don't get me wrong, because it does include songs that will obviously be major hits. One track in particular, "When It's Love," is destined to be a Top 10 mainstay, but none of that Van Halen style was lost while producing the song. And if you're looking for the 90 m.p.h. speedbumers that the grovp is famous for, you'll also find them here. Two such songs are "Source of Infection" and "Sucker In A 3 Piece." These are sure to get your feet a tappin' or your head a bangin', whatever your preference may be. As usual there are the incredible guitar heroics of Eddie Van Halen and the band's great harmonies in the backup vocals. These are epitomized in the first single from the Wayne Cartwright+Staff album, "Black and Blue," which, incidentally, gets my vote Pleasing the crowd at Fan Fair... for the dirtiest song on the airwaves at the present time.

  • Van Halen – a Different Kind of Truth
    Van Halen – A Different Kind Of Truth A Different Kind Of Truth is Van Halen’s twelfth studio album, and their first in fourteen years. This album marks the recording reunion of Eddie and Alex Van Halen with original singer/front man David Lee Roth. Roth was the singer in Van Halen from 1974‐1985, and was replaced by Sammy Hagar when the band softened their hard rock sound into a more commercial pop rock sound in the mid‐1980s. Roth recorded two songs with Van Halen in 1996 for a greatest hits album released when Hagar left the band, and expectations were high that he would return for a new album, but it didn’t work out that way. Instead, Extreme singer Gary Cherone joined Van Halen, and they recorded one weak album together. Touring reunions with both Hagar and Roth followed the departure of Cherone in 1999, but there was no new music recorded. There was much debate whether there would ever be another Van Halen album, as Eddie Van Halen was often seen drunk in public during his separation and after his divorce from actress Valerie Bertinelli. Furthermore, a YouTube video surfaced of Eddie, appearing to be near death, sitting in with a party band playing a Tommy Bolin song, and his guitar playing was pathetic. Eddie appeared unhealthy due to suspected drug use, and the second half of a tour was cancelled in 2008 due to Eddie’s poor health. This is the much abbreviated “CliffsNotes” version of the Van Halen soap opera, which effectively reduced one of the most popular rock bands in history to a joke.

DESCRIPTORS *Centralization; *Childrens Television; Comparative Analysis; Mergers; *Programming (Broadcast); Television Research IDENTIFIERS California (Los Angeles); Federal Communications Commission ABSTRACT The Federal Communications Commission is currently considering modifying or eliminating existing media ownership rules. Children's advocates are concerned that any changes to these rules could negatively affect the already limited amount and types of programming available for children. Children Now conducted the first study to examine the availability and diversity of children programming in an increasingly consolidated media marketplace. Los Angeles was selected as a case study for this research because it is the second largest media market in the country, and two duopolies now exist among its television stations. The study compared the children's programming schedules from 1998, when the market's seven major commercial broadcast television stations were owned by seven different companies, to 2003, after consolidation reduced the number to five. The findings suggest that changes to the current ownership policies will have a serious impact on the availability and diversity of children's programming.
