Episode 3. Without You featuring Corey Morrissette and Mark Camire from ⁠⁠⁠And The Podcast Will Rock⁠⁠⁠. Join Scotzo, Wolfie and Chaz as they take Mark & Corey through the paces with the first divisive track off Van Halen III, the first single from the album, Without You.

Most commonly known as the "most Van Halen" track on the album in that it was recorded by Eddie as a demo when they first hooked up with Gary, and we know for historical fact that all of the members of the band contributed to the final recorded work. Does it live up to the Can Halen legacy? Are there parts of this song that could be considered "all-time great" or "classic" Van Halen? Only your ears will tell. And did Scott and Kev do a job making this song more of a "banger", we find out as our co-hosts take the first spin through the Van Halen III Redux version after listening to the original. Did they make a new nugget for Van Halen fans to slap some sauce on, or did we just toss another order of boneless wings in the trash? You be the judge - as it should be.

Van Halen III Redux is the work of ⁠⁠Seaside Pod Review⁠⁠, ⁠⁠Tom Petty Project⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠Ultimate Catalog Clash⁠⁠ podcast host Kevin Brown and producer Scott D. Monroe, our own Scotzo. Listen to their ⁠⁠Redux version of VHIII⁠ ⁠that's lighter, leaner, and in some circles a means to salvaging the disc a producer in a different circumstance might have produced. Ahem.

Season 3 of the Regarding...Series - Welcome to the ultimate rediscovery of Van Halen’s most controversial album. 

At the outset, we represent a good spectrum of views: Wolfie is 100% no opinion on the album; Scott leans more positive but is in the middle and has some dislikes; and Chaz is … appreciative as a student of Edward Van Halen, and empathetic to his artistic cause, but not a big fan of the final output overall. To put it mildly. How Many Say Why is all they could be heard muttering to themselves, in a sea-shanty sort of sway. How Many Say Why? How Many Say Why?

The Show

In this season of Regarding…, the panel tackles KISS’s Music From The Elder one song at a time—testing whether its epic ambition holds up under scrutiny. Alongside the analysis, Scott D. Monroe’s original screenplay tries to turn the album’s abstract mythology into an actual story.

Ambition meets accountability.
