Mammoth WVH - I’m Alright 

I agree. Really like this.. Sounds like he/they are still developing. Not really re-inventing the wheel here. The guitar talent is obviously apparent. Pun intended Yeah Wolfie!!

@@TheMOLTENPLANET 👍

Yeah kinda Alice In Chains, Candlebox, Silverchair vibes

Yep, major 90's rock vibes here. I love it.

thats for sure a ben harper song ! @@jackshittle

My son is the same,he can rip the hell outta a guitar and taught himself by reading tabs. 😮🙏✌️✌️✌️

It's actually not rare, it's common. Most kids just choose not to ride on the wings of their famous parent because they want to make their own way. They use different names to gain fame, not the famous name.

Kid??? I don't get it!! Wolf (or should I say Wolfie) is a month away from being a 33 year old man, yet everyone treats him like he's Eddie's 15 year old son!! I won't deny he's talented, but before saying he's another "chip off the old block" let's not forget what "old block" Eddie Van Halen had accomplished by the time he was 33 years old. First of all, on his very first album, he not only defined himself as a virtuoso, he completely re-invented rock guitar!! (The only other person in rock n' roll who holds that distinction is Jimi Hendrix!!) Almost overnight, Eddie became a huge influence on virtually every up-and-coming rock guitarist on this planet!! Secondly, Eddie had recorded 8 albums on a major label by the time he was 33. All 8 of these albums were multi-platinum albums (2 were certified diamond), 2 of them went to #1 on the Billboard Top 200 albums chart (5150/0U812), one went to #2 (1984), one went to #3 (Diver Down), one went to #5 (Fair Warning), and two went to #6 (VH II, and Women & Children First). In other words, 7 of his 8 albums charted at #6 or higher and this included two #1 sellers. Although the VH debut album was the only 1 of these 8 that failed to crack the Top 10, this album would eventually be certified Diamond in the USA meaning it has sold over 10 million copies in the USA alone making it and 1984 (also Diamond) his two biggest selling albums. Although VH never tried or wanted to be a Top 40 band, by the time Eddie was 33 he managed to have 13 Top 40 hits (4 of which made the Top 10). Those hits were "Jump" (#1), Why Can't This Be Love (#3), "When It's Love" (#5), Pretty Woman (Cashbox #10, Billboard #12 ), "I'll Wait (#13), Panama (#13), "Dance The Night Away (#15), "Dreams" (#22), "Love Walks In" (#22), "You Really Got Me" (#36), Dancing In The Street (#38), and many, many more that just missed the Top 40 but charted in the Top 100. They also had numerous songs that were played heavily on AOR radio stations, such as "Ain't Talkin' Bout Love, Running With The Devil, & Unchained. Let's not forget the power of MTV in the 1980's and the fact that Van Halen was one of the biggest and most requested acts on MTV. In addition to their big hits, VH had many videos that were on heavy rotation on MTV including "The Cradle Will Rock" and the mega-popular "Hot For Teacher". Last but not least, VH was one of the most successful touring acts throughout the period of 1978 thru 1988 (when Eddie reached the age of 33). Their 1984 Tour was one of the biggest grossing tours of all time. In 1983, they were paid 1.5 million dollars to play at the US Festival making them the highest paid act at that 3-day event. (Note: $1.5 million dollars in 1983 would be equivalent to $4.53 million today. That works out to an approximate hourly wage of $2.25 million/hour minus expenses for the band (assuming a 2 hour show).

@riskromer9773 I wouldn't say that at all. I think musical talent runs in the genes and it certainly helps if you have a famous dad to inspire and hopefully teach you. On the other hand, a lot of famous musicians stay on the road constantly and aren't home much to teach their kids, but I'm sure they have no problem arranging quality lessons for their kids.

@@edcollins9377 if you don't get it is because you're too young lol we old people call kids anyone 10 years younger than us hahaha enjoy your youth, young man. It will soon be gone. Cheers.

His solo was copy/paste Eddie licks, but whatever.

He has two solo records. The first record was more poppy and less EVH influenced, the second record he intentionally channeled his dad and played some of his guitars too. Both records are fantastic. Hating on other people is really not a good look, I had to learn the hard way.@@Dadandchicken

I don't hate anybody. Wolfgang is a good player. But there are tens of thousands of good players around the country. I'm glad he's able to do what he wants to do. But I wonder if anyone would have ever heard of him, if not for his dad.

​@@Dadandchickenwho cares? He plays them better than 99.999% of guitarists. Either way, op was referring to the song, not the stupid solo. The song ALWAYS matters far more than the solo. Don't be so negative.

@@Dadandchicken hmmm... I wonder who taught him guitar. It may have had an influence on his playing. Hmm... I wonder who that was.

To top that, he plays bass and drums as well for his albums. He’s a very talented musician!

Which video did you watch? Not this one for sure.

​@@Me4-gc8qs There's always that one, salty, crusty yoghurt jealous of others. Nice to know you're not afraid to take one for the team, bud 🤟

Don't say " chops " around Wolfie ... 🐖

All they need now is actual talent

@@thomasdaddio741 Post up homie....let's see what you got........where's your talent lie, besides wannabe music critic.......

Yes, he definitely sounds good digitally enhanced. 👍

If you listen to the last live van halen album you can here his vocals

@@mrmrandmrs800 Yes with Auto-Tune

​@@jeff8039 every artist since the invention of digital recording has used digitally enhanced vocals. What's your point? Do you mean he's using autotune?

​@@jeff8039what makes you think he's using autotune here? I don't hear it, and I am pretty sure he's just singing well. Autotune hates tremelo and he uses a pretty fast one often.

AGREED 😎🤘🏼 he’s totally keeping Rock Alive

but rock

@@edwilkinson1760 ?

Plenty creative young rock bands on here. This is radio butt rock.

Sounds more like emo than rock n roll.

Definitely @Kirk_Hammett_Bit_Me!!!!

wait the touring members of Mammoth have names?

​@@mcbnjbut nobody in the band has a personality, which is why nobody cares about it 😂

YESSSS so freakin great

It feels like it has been a while, right?

@@markanquoe2612 gotta say when I got that first double LP it stayed on my turntable awhile. Every side was great Was so happy that the second album in August was just as great. Every time they hit Chicago. It’s a great Rock and Roll show. So happy they are out there and keeping Rock Alive

The Live Mammothwvh experience is So Great ! And year Frank is on tour

He actually plays all the instruments himself on his albums

So he doesn’t really have a band just when he goes in concert I’m not sure about him yet he’s got talent and said he wants it to be his thing yet he names the band or no band after his father’s band

Except for Conan from 93-2019

Well there’s 1 thing

Letterman had the best musical guest.

Nice reference....Not many know that VH original name was Mammoth.

He also made his mother Valerie proud by eating everything she cooks.

​@flukyreview9128, Not going to lie, I chuckled pretty good at that😂

Some immature dork always has to bring up his weight. 🙄

Not really. Van Halen rocked, this guy does not.

What God is that? Buddha?

Hell yeah! 💯

He plays everything on the albums. Vocals, Bass, Guitar and Drums. He is fantastic on every instrument. His band is so they can play live

@@jimbarber691and keyboard 😎🤘🏼 (a song or 2)

He was the bassist for that last few years of Van Halen, he actually plays ALL the instruments on both Albums.

@@zmusicman1965 Yeah, I know he was the bassist, which is why I said I thought he was a bassist. ;)

He actually started out as a drummer and played bass for a few years touring with Van Halen. Yes, I saw the Amoeba interview. He's fantastic.

I wanted to go, but the Corpus heat is awful.

Philly too! @wmmr

@@UncleGrandpaSteve cool I'm originally from NJ I remember MMR from going to the shore. WPLJ & WNEW were the regular stations where I lived

PS: While he is a descendant of rock royalty AND a former member of Halen, his solo work is very much his own rocking sound and thats a beautiful thing. Embrace the rock!
