Van Halen – Balance (Expanded Edition) 2LP

Van Halen – Balance (Expanded Edition)

Balance is Van Halen's 1995 Grammy-nominated, multi-platinum 10th studio album, and is the last to feature the enormously successful lineup of Sammy Hagar, Eddie Van Halen, Alex Van Halen and Michael Anthony.

Featuring the Top 40 single, "Can't Stop Lovin' You," the album debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 U.S. chart and reached the Top Ten in Australia, Canada, Netherlands, Finland, Germany, Japan, Scotland, Sweden, Switzerland and the UK.

We are releasing expanded editions of Balance to mark the album's 30th anniversary in various formats, including a mixed media box featuring 2 LPs, 2 CDs, a Blu-ray and a book. All editions will feature Donn Landee's recent and acclaimed Balance audio remaster from The Collection II box set.

The original album's 1LP has been expanded to two discs to improve audio quality and to reinstate the instrumental "Baluchitherium," which had been left off all previous pressings. The vinyl releases feature a Side D etching.

The CDs will include the remastered original album plus a second disc containing rare B-sides and eight previously unreleased live performances from London's Wembley Stadium (June 24, 1995).

The Blu-ray in the mixed media box includes six promotional and live videos.
