 | High praise from Ted Templeman: Greetings all – I write with some exciting news about the forthcoming Van Halen Rising. Back in 2012, I had the great pleasure of interviewing Grammy-winning producer Ted Templeman, who oversaw the making of the first six classic Van Halen albums. A couple of months ago, Ted had the opportunity to read an advance copy of Van Halen Rising. So here’s his verdict: I really loved reading Van Halen Rising. I couldn’t believe the insight Renoff has into the production process behind the making of Van Halen’s debut. He truly gets it! This book is fantastic. — Ted Templeman, Grammy Winning Producer (Van Halen, David Lee Roth) As a historian who has dedicated years of his life to getting the Van Halen story right, I couldn’t ask for higher praise than from Templeman, the man who helped guide the band to the stratosphere of rock success. I hope, too, that his endorsement helps reaffirm in your minds that I’m about to deliver a great book on Van Halen’s early days to readers everywhere. So can I ask you a favor? If you know someone who might be on the fence about picking up Van Halen Rising (we all know the type: “Meh. I’ve read a bunch of rock books; they’re all the same. The last good one I read was The Dirt . . . “), would you please share this email with them? I’d really appreciate it. Otherwise, I want to thank everyone for all of the emails and feedback on the stories and photos I’ve been sharing via email and on my social media pages. Speaking of social media, if we’re not already linked up on Facebook and Twitter, I’d love to make that connection with you @GregRenoff or at facebook.com/vanhalenrising. Please do reach out to me. Well, that’s it for now. Until next time – Rock On . . . Greg Stay Frosty DaveQuote |
