Van Halen / deluxe box set

By Paul Sinclair

Rhino are to reissue a Van Halen 4CD deluxe box that will feature newly remastered versions of the band’s 1978 eponymous debut and their sixth studio album, 1984, along with a brand new live album Tokyo Dome Live In Concert.

Renowned engineer Chris Bellman was enlisted for remastering the studio albums and in order to produce the original sound the band intended, Bellman cut straight from the quarter-inch tapes for CD and for 180-gram vinyl (and for the digital versions).

The 25-track double live album was recorded in 2013 and features singer David Lee Roth, guitarist Eddie Van Halen, drummer Alex Van Halen, and bassist Wolfgang Van Halen and was mixed by Bob Clearmountain.

The 4CD deluxe set is also available as a 6LP vinyl box and all three albums can be bought individually as CD and vinyl LPs (the live album is 2CD or 4LP). Other Van Halen albums Diver Down, Women and Children First, Van Halen II and Fair Warning are being remastered and will be reissued later this year.

This new Van Halen deluxe set is out on 13 April 2015.
