which classic vh and song are the best and why? personally my favorite is vh1 right above fair warning, cuz fair warning has a couple bad songs at the end like sunday afternoon in the park, and one foot out the door. vh1 has no bad songs what so ever. plus vh1 is longer than fair warning!

Don't know about the best, but Fair Warning finds it's way into my CD player a little more than the others, with Women and Children First nipping at it's heels.
Tie for third with Van Halen 2 and Diver Down.
Fourth is Van Halen, and only because I listened to that album so much that I almost don't need to ever again. Those songs are surgically burned into my subconscious.
Don't bother spinning 1984 much anymore. Hot For Teacher, Girl Gone Bad, Drop Dead Legs and House Of Pain get some play now and then, but have given the rest of the tracks a miss for a long time. Eat Em And Smile gets more play than 1984. Just an all around better album. Not classic Van Halen by definition, but closer to the sound, feeling and spirit of it than Sam Halen and Van Cherone ever dreamed of getting.Scramby eggs and bacon.Comment

I have always thought of the six-pack as one long glorious recording, from RWTD to House of Pain. And that is about the greatest body of music ever recorded!Comment

Err... trying to calculate one over another from the 6Pack is like trying to say which beer is best from a 6pack. Or if a girl's left tittie is better than the right one!! Ummm, I'm gonna sat Women and Children First. Why, you ask? Cuz I said so.If you listen to fools

PROBABLY VH1
Probably VH1 although Fair Warning is close. I never was all that crazy about WACFirst for some reason. Also I think DDOWN is under-rated. Yeah it has the covers, but the originals kick immortal ass and L Guitars is my all time favorite song by VH. Plus ROTH kicks serious ass on The Full Bug. All in all though I'd have to go with VH1. Jamie's Cryin' is (to me) the most under-rated VH song ever along with L Guitars.DLR/VH IS JUST BETTERComment

women and children first...the band sings like angels on "in a simple rhyme"..they absolutely rock on "romeo delight"...the dark bluesy, dirty "fools"..."everybody wants some"...and they wrap it up with the foot stompin' square dancin' "could this be magic". rock and roll defined.Comment

Van Halen I is my favourite because all the songs on it are lyrically fantastic and the guitaring is some of the best I've ever heard. Even though my Fav Van Halen song is Little Guitars the rest of the album isn't in the same league as VHI.Rumour has it that Van Halen have continued in recent years with a new lead signer, but since there 1985 breakup, nobody involved has ever recaptured that spontaneous cheeseburger magic!
