Deep Dive - Author Greg Renoff on Van Halen (1978)

We're trying something different this time. We're proud to welcome Van Halen Rising author Greg Renoff to deep dive Van Halen's debut album from 1978. Greg is probably considered THE expert on the early days of Van Halen, so it made sense to hear the stories he knows about the creation of this seminal work. In addition, Greg is now releasing his next book, Ted Templeman: A Platinum Producer's Life in Music which features Ted's recollections of working with artists like Van Halen, the Doobie Brothers, Nicolette Larson, BulletBoys and many others.    We are giving away two copies of Ted's book and to qualify you have to be a Tier 1 supporter of The Hustle. Go to Patreon and sign up to support the show! We will be picking two winners on Sunday, April 26th.  https://www.patreon.com/thehustlepod     And be sure to pick up both books!  https://www.amazon.com/Greg-Renoff/e/B001JSE0E4%3Fref=dbs_a_mng_rwt_scns_share
