    "Van Halen was one of the most hallelujah, tailgate, backyard, BBQ, arrive four hours early to the gig just for the parking lot bands. And still to this day is. It's an attitude. I think it's a spirit more than anything else is."

    Sorry, but I'm not amongst the throngs of Classic VH fans that thinks FW is the best thing since canned beer....

    Great album, absolutely no doubt about that....

    But it doesn't compare to the raw fuckin' energy of VH I.....

    Christ, side 1 is unbelievable in itself.....

    I know I'm still talking in album talk, but RWTD, Eruption, YRGM, ATBL, I'm the One, and Jamie's Cryin', now that's one hell of an entire album, much less one side.....

    Not to mention the fact that it was their debut album....

            Diver Down.

            This album shows people how diverse Van Halen were, and how they could "Van Halenize" every cover they laid their hands on, IMO.
            Why settle for something you have, if it's not as good as something you're out to get?

                Fair Warning is the best VH album, although VH1 is a close second.

                  Whenever this poll is done Fair Warning wins hands down........
                  Diamond Mafia Forever - 4. To restore fullbug to the prominent place in this board, after various serious attacks by hitch1969 have now damaged his reputation and now is reguarded as a "Retarded, Stoned, Canadian, Dog finger bangin' fuckup"

                    Nope, sorry.
                    VAN HALEN is one of the greatest ever albums.
                    The greatest VAN HALEN album.
                    Nuff said.

                      And why Bug ??

                      Not just why FW is best to you, but why not VH I....

                        I did.
                        I saw 'em in 1979. the first(and the last) VH experience.
                        so that album is special to me.

                          I`ll go for "Fair warning".

                          It`s pretty dark and maybe a little wierd.

                          They`re all good, though.

                              That makes sense...

                              I have a pamphlet from Byblos in Akasaka/Tokyo that showed Van Halen partied there when they toured Japan in '79...

                              Byblos was one rocking club....All of the American bands who toured in Tokyo stopped there... The list is very impressive... Heavy metal Japanese chicks rocked out with their leather mini-skirts....

                              I met the lead guitarist from Angel (remember them ???) one night there....

                              Although I did a Google search today and it seems that they made it into a Discotechque....

                              Aaah, the good old days....
