Van Halen
2008 reissue of Van Halen's self-titled debut album released in 1978. It is considered to be one of the most famous debut albums. The album has sold over ten million copies in the United States alone and it is considered to be one of the most successful debuts by a hard rock band. Along with 1984, it gives Van Halen two original (not a greatest hits) albums with Diamond status in sales -- a feat achieved by only four other rock bands: The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, and Def Leppard. 11 tracks. more

- You Really Got Me
Nowadays, covers are a bane, easy emotional jerkers and PoMo chain-yankers, but, like, back in 1978, no self-respecting rock bands did 'em. Ever. Covers were contaminated by their lowly roots ~ B-sides, bar bands, promiscuousness....

if you love smokin' rock with fantastic guitar playing then this CD has to be in your collection, simple as that. And for the reviewer who asked "Would you still like it if it had no guitar solos?" what exactly is your point? This is a...

ESSENTIAL ALBUM!!! One of rock's outstanding debuts that ranks in the top 20 debuts ever. Eddie Van Halen stunned the world with his incredible leads & there weren't too many better front men than David Lee Roth. Though the album only...

Van Halen's influence on the world of rock music was probably the worst one that ever happened. Eddie Van Halen, while surely talented, never did anything for me. His guitar solos were never memorable in the same way many hard rock...

- So what is the big deal?
Why is VH's debut so blindly heaped with praise? I suspect that most of the people who blindly worship Van Halen are victim to mass hype and trends. Thats all this album and egocentric guitar player really boils down to, HYPE. This album...
