Former Van Halen bassist Michael Anthony says there’s a ton of material in the Van Halen archive.

In a new interview, Anthony said, “We’re starting a bunch of the re-issue stuff with the Sammy (Hagar) years, with all his albums, and the first one that will come out will be the “Right Here, Right Now” live album that we did in 1992. We’re digging back into stuff. There’s a lot more stuff at Ed’s 5150 studio; Wolfie or Alex will start going through stuff there and see what there is. There’s a ton of stuff.”

Anthony also said that there’s an archive of live audio from the band that’s “almost album quality,” including recordings made via the live mixing desk, as well as well as video footage dating back to the early 1980s.
