Van Halen began a new chapter 40 years ago with the release of 5150, the first album featuring the lineup of Sammy Hagar, Eddie Van Halen, Alex Van Halen, and Michael Anthony. 5150 marked the band’s first #1 album and continued their streak of multi-Platinum releases.
5150 (Expanded Edition); comes out March 27, just days after the album’s 40th anniversary. This LP/3CD/Blu-ray collection includes the 1986 album remastered directly from the original master tapes, overseen by the band's longtime engineer Donn Landee.
The set also introduces more than 90 minutes of live recordings from the band's August 27, 1986 concert at New Haven Veterans Memorial Coliseum in New Haven, Connecticut. These are joined by a selection of rare 7” single edits and extended 12" versions.
The Blu-ray includes a new high-definition upgrade of Live Without a Net, Van Halen's double-Platinum 1986 concert video that was also recorded that same August night in New Haven, along with promotional videos for "Dreams" and “Why Can’t This Be Love."
Booklet: Similar to the For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge and Balance, the set will include a book featuring band photography from the time period, full song lyrics, guitar picks, backstage passes, promotional items, advertisements, tape boxes, tour dates, etc. Measuring 12" x 12" and containing 24 pages, this fantastic book is packed with cool items!
Limited Edition: This is another one-and-done release, meaning Warner Records prints a few thousand copies and won't be reprinted. Get it before it's gone!
