The debut of Sammy Hagar and 5150 is one of my favorite albums. It is over played, but OU812 and everything else after doesn't have much worth listening to. Van Halen debut and 1984 (with Roth) is the only thing else I might consider listening to, besides an occasional song here and there. I'm kinda burnt out on Halen's music.

Well it's not overplayed for me.

Probably because I've not listened to it since about 1990.

Pretty good. The only thing I didn't care for was the snare. It seemed like he was hitting off-tempo just for the sake of being off-tempo, which for me detracted from the groove.

I must pull out that new slash old Van Halen cd that they recorded last year! There are some pretty good hard rock numbers on there!

Agree. But it's still very nice. Hard to cover Van Halen so mad props.

Have you read Sammy's bio?? Paints a bad picture of the VH brothers. Still one of the best all time rock bands in my book.

I think when Sammy signed on they had this large classy sound that wasn't there before. He brought a new direction to VH sound in my opinion.
