Howard Stern put together a radio special called "The Whole Truth: The Howard Stern Van Halen Special" - a 5-hour uncensored history of Van Halen on The Howard Stern Show.
The program aired Tuesday, the day VH’s new album, “A Different Kind Of Truth,” hit stores in North America.
Stern’s team pulled together a variety of appearances from the different band members over the years to give listeners a sense of the up & down history of the group and the back & forth bickering…resulting in an oral history as told through the band members themselves.
All members of the VH family tree are included in the show, with the exception of bassist Wolfgang Van Halen.
Sit back and enjoy…
