Tracks featured include Ain’t talking ‘Bout Love, Dance The Night Away, Jump, Panama and Hot For Teacher, the latter of which is a “unique single edit that was issued exclusively in Japan, along with the single edit versions of (Oh) Pretty Woman and I’ll Wait.”

Meanwhile, frontman David Lee Roth recently announced a 2020 Las Vegas residency which will see him rock the city’s House Of Blues between January and March.
