The set will feature three new songs, "It's About Time", "Up for Breakfast" and "Learning To See", featuring vocalist Sammy Hagar, who has rejoined the group eight years after an acrimonious departure. Liner notes for the compilation have been provided by David Wild of Rolling Stone magazine. In addition, Van Halen News Desk (VHND) is reporting that a Warner Bros.' source has confirmed that the first single from the set, "It's About Time", will be released to radio on Wednesday, May 26.
