| | Music CD: Live: Right Here, Right Now. Van Halen Tracks: Poundcake, Judgement Day, When It's Love, Spanked, Ain't ... |
 | | Many of these live renditions sound fuller than the studio versions, especially songs from "5150" and "OU812." Hagar's monologues, although at times long-winded, are generally interesting, especially his speech about living in the moment in the middle of "Panama." The instrumentals are more hit-or-miss. |
 | | Bottom Line:buy this live album ONLY if you are a die hard Van Halen fan,like both the Roth and Hagar eras of Van Halen,and don't mind the tracklisting here. |
 | | This album got a surprsingly good reception from both critics and longtime fans of the group, who initally dismissed the Sammy Hagar-led VH as a formulaic ballad machine. |
