cd: 14/14 

The Best of Both Worlds is a greatest hits album  by American heavy metal/hard rock band Van Halen, released in 2004. The title references both their song of the same name, and the fact that the album has songs from their two main and successful vocalists David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar. The album featured three new songs from the band with Hagar on vocals, but Eddie Van Halen took over the bass work typically done by Michael Anthony. It featured no songs from the band"s last studio album, Van Halen III, which featured Gary Cherone on vocals released in 1998. It also is the only Van Halen release to feature remastered versions of Hagar era songs.
