Hi there. I paid for all of the Early Years episodes, but I don't see it in my purchases and I'm not able to stream beyond the initial preview minutes and can't download. Help requested! Thanks.

OK, revisiting Paul Gilbert's episode! He was SO GENEROUS to play licks along with the stories...you could just hear the love of a teenage guitar enthusiast oozing through --- really visceral and evocative!!!

So , You guy's are talking about Van Halen , Stories and such, for $25.00

Hi Grant,

There are different things that are included in each bundle so the prices do vary. It is a podcast for purchase and it helps support 2 important charities as well, Feeding America and Mr. Holland's Opus, which was Edward Van Halen's favorite charity.

EVH aside, I appreciate the Zappa Family Trust but what real percentage of this podcast moneypeel goes toward Feeding America and Mr. Holland's Opus.  C'mon Dweeez!

With the help of the RWTD community we have been able to help feed a lot of people as well as get new instruments into the hands of many school children. I'll ne writting a blog about it soon.

thank you for doing this. thank you for sharing really great stuff on Youtube which is fantastic in itself, but I HAD to immerse myself in this series as I continue to mourn along with millions of others...

Dude! The Greg Howe episode is so good! 
The whole discussion of the VH "swing" is music to my ears.
When people pass off VH has a just another hard rock band with a great guitar player I play songs like "Push Comes to Shove" to show how they are so much more than any other band of their generation.

BTW - Having guests that can play the licks and are set up to play during the interview is the best. It facilitates a much deeper discussion of the music.

Great job Dweez!
