Van Halen's first iconic album took just 7 months from it's release to become certified platinum and has since sold over 10 million copies.

We pulled the tracking sheets from the Sunset Sound archives, used the same microphones, placed the Los Rios Rock School/Teacher Zone students and their instruments in the room as closely as we could replicate, and had them record the entire album in one day.

Hi Friend,  Van Halen's first iconic album took just 7 months from it's release to become certified platinum and has since sold over 10 million copies. We pulled the tracking sheets from the Sunset Sound archives, used the same microphones, placed the Los Rios Rock School/Teacher Zone students and their instruments in the room as closely as we could replicate, and had them record the entire album in one day. Please enjoy the video! Have a marvellous time! Many thanks Warren

[mikemccann]

Love the drummers face at the end...he left it all on the track!! Love seeing that he gave it everything he had!

[madmanjack]

Love seeing these younger folks rockin' the 80s music. Keep the flame burning!

[Podcastage]

Wait. These kids are this talented? I should probably just stop playing music. HA! Amazing performances all around.

[russwsoper]

These kids are fantastic - I can't believe how good they are at the age of 14. FANTASTIC to see they have taste in good music and have clearly put in the time to develop their chops. Kudos!!! Faith in the next generation restored!!!!

[leegordon]

As a musician this brought a huge smile to my face. So many schools cutting music programs, its awesome to see that music for our kids is alive and kickin some serious butt. This was an outstanding talent on display. 25 years as a drummer I am impressed!! Warren, what an awesome production, I raise my glass to you for taking the time with these talented young musicians!

[tintoweno]

Flawless cover. The singer is so good. I like the way he achieves the signature DLR high screams. Well done, young fellas. Keep on rockin!

[jennbush]

[scb]

It's great to see kids making music at this level.

[naturalpro]

This was AMAZING!!!! The kids were outstanding!!!! I think Van Halen can do something with the vocalist!!!! WOW!!!!

[OldNerdTV]

So much talent, so much professionalism, so much spirit. And yes, obviously I am envious, but in a good way. Those kids are amazing, every video I've seen of them...

[Thesongstaysthesame]

My faith in humanity has been restored!! This is awesome!
