TONECHASER: TONECHASER VOL. 1

Tonechaser is the first in a series of audiobooks based around the hardback titled Tonechaser – Understanding Edward: My 26-Year Journey with Edward Van Halen. Veteran rock journalist and author Steve Rosen narrates the nearly 20-hour audiobook but all the interviews between Rosen and the legendary guitarist which occur in the 580-page hardback utilize the actual archival recordings made by Steve dating all the way back to 1978. So, what you are hearing in Tonechaser – Vol. 1 are hours and hours of extraordinarily rare, never before heard conversations presented here for the first time.

There has never been an audiobook such as this one. Rosen had a unique friendship with Van Halen no other writer ever experienced. Because of this very close and meaningful relationship, many of the interviews embedded in Tonechaser – Vol. 1 reveal a profound depth of respect and trust between writer and rockstar.

Van Halen fans will truly love this audiobook. Tonechaser – Vol. 1 is an important piece in the history of Edward Van Halen and a stunning tribute to the legacy of the late and legendary guitarist.
