I'm werid! Bought DD first!

[loss of fools]

vh 1. bought it the same day as my first t-tex album i started by listing to vh then when i tried to change cd i just couldent bring my self to take vh out of the player. i think it stayed in there for a good while until i got dd.

[smaz]

Ummm... I'm a casual traditionalist.

I bought VH1 and 1984 at the same time :)

[UNCLAX72]

1984 it had all of the classic hits

[Jérôme Frenchise]

I bought MCMLXXXIV in May 1984 in... Canterbury, on an 8-day school trip. That cassette quickly became the whole bus's favorite!:D
Mates made me copies of the other 5, which wore out (:)), so I bought them in 1989.
I bought the 6-pack, on CD this time, in 1994, which I gave up to my younger bro in 2000 when I got the remasters.

Playing MCMLXXXIV in 1984 (I was going to be 14) got me over the moon, and yeah, it still does :cool:. I also listened to other pretty good stuff which I still listen today as well, but nothing could be compared to VH then (as nothings still can't now ;)).

MCMLXXXIV is any group/artist's album I've most listened to, by far.:D

[Last_Child]

I bought 1984 first because of Panama...Bought it in Sweden

after a couple of days i bought the Lp of VHI..
Weeks after (Or days) i bought the rest of the six pack...

[Atomic_Rob]

Van Halen 1 first, there has never been a debut album so explosive in history

[knuckleboner]

VH II.

at the time, i had 5 of the 6 albums on commercial cassettes.

but the VH II i had was a taped copy from a friend's cassette.

so when i first started getting CDs, it seemed like a good place to start.

I purchased all of them at once.

The reason was that I had the money and love Van Halen.

Is that a good enough reason?

[Thorman]

1984...on vinyl.....back in ..1984 of course......

Then, subsequently bought the rest ..i think Fair Warning was my second purchase...

Yeah i know but the dr`s say i should make a full recovery once the cvh line up gets back together and rock the world for all the little boys and girls!!!!!

[buckshotjenkins]

damn carmine! you were quite young to like VH to get FW when it came out!

i first heard the 12/20/77 pasadena civic record (in '90), and bought VH1 because most of the songs were on there.

i love the pasadena show! i think ed steps on his guitar cord and it falls out cause he cuts out in ice cream man...ONLY TO RETURN THUNDEROUSLY!!!
