Not at my local newsagent yet..so can't comment on contents.

Any chance all 50 are Dave-era songs?

[ELVIS]

That would be every song except Jump...

This is silly - I can't wait to see another list.

[sambo]

Yeah well, it seems as if VH are the flavour of the month again anyways.. and that's a good thing.

[Zing!]

I'll buy it. The centerfold will look good in the Garage Majal with a nice frame around it.

And that was my first thought as well: "They better be all classic Van Halen songs..."

I've given GUITAR WORLD plenty of shit aboot their constant "polls" on their FB page....gotten a few heated responses from who ever runs it for 'em.............

I also busted their chops for "Hot for Teacher" tabed once again.............

Why not "Big River"? Or "China Town"?

They used to be the Un-official "EVH" magazine and have always talked shit aboot DAVE..............BASTARDS!!!

Agreed...

It's not as if every guitar fan out there has a lot many copies of GW lying around with soooo many polls, (Hendrix, Zep, Halen, ACDC - the same winners) with HFT tabbed at least a dozen times in the last 28 years.. time for something new perhaps?

It would have been apropos to throw in a tab off the new album, agreed.

Also, how many times is GW gonna rehash the same old Randy Rhoads stories? As if Ozzy even remembers the day he met Randy.

I'm not a guitar dude, but I bought the magazine due to being a big VH fan..

do you guys want me to copy down the list?

Yep. If there's anything other than CVH on the list, we need to know.

[ELVIS]

I'm sure there is...
