RG and I were talking earlier about how, no matter what all was said later on, that Ed and Dave were always smiling back in the day.
It's true. Go take a look at all those classic pics... Al and Mike, too.
Compare and discuss if you like how Ed seemingly lost his smile a couple of discs into the Sammy era... Look at the pub shots for Cash Grab '04... The flash bulb doesn't lie.
This is one of my favorite Classic VH shots.
Top of their game, you better believe it baby.

Although I know it's bad form to post a Van Hagar pic, look at Eddie on this cover...he looks fucking embarrassed as hell (as he should be).

Sammy WISHES he had my talent, that little sawed off bitch!"
'Wishing (If I had a photograph of you)' was a much better and more representive FOS tune but didn't chart nearly as high... NOT that I was a big fan or anything, mind you!

Classic Van Halen had THE look alright. "Scary skinny" as Dave would say. To me they not only looked happy, they looked dangerous too. They had that edgey look of a killer young band.
With Sammy they look safe, acceptable and mainstream. They lost their edge and it showed.
As a band their whole message since Dave left, through their music AND their image, is one of confusion.

Van Halen had the look that if you were a band on the same bill you would be going "Oh Fuck! Those guys are going to murder us!" Even Mike had a bad ass vibe to him in the early days.

Sad that it all imploded 10 months later, cause you couldn't tell of any gloom or doom watching them live back then...
