The Bands That Classic Van Halen Influenced Thread..
Coming soon...Who Influenced CVH and Dave.. [/B][/QUOTE]
How 'bout Black Oak Arkansas for some CVH influenece? Jim Dandy? They had an old tune "Not Fade Away" that was a classic in it's day. I really think the influence came out in the WACF album....Fools, TYWH....etc....etc. Dave took that approach to a whole new level, in my opinion. Going pretty far back--may have been a cover for all I know....Good stuff though.
The influence isn't really noticable, but I saw a picture of the room of Green Day's Billy Joe when he was a teenager & he had this poster on his wall.
On a side note, Monkey Boy's drum set-up looks pretty fuckin badass in this shot!
