Van Halen

to date have released eleven studio albums,[1] selling more than 80 million albums worldwide[2] and earning the band the Guinness Book of World Records title for the most number one hits on the Billboard Mainstream Rock List.[3] According to the Recording Industry Association of America Van Halen is #19 on the list of top selling artists of all time (having sold more than 56 million albums in the U.S.)[4] and is one of only five rock groups that have had two albums sell more than 10 million copies in the U.S.

Yeah, real one hit wonders eh?

Pft, Billboard charts.
From the people who give you Nelly Furtado and other s*** music filling the #1 spot all the time.

great band

cockrockers
(heh, i dont mind jump and hot for teacher though)

interesting

It will not exactly be a reunion of the classic lineup famed for such hits as Panama and Running with the Devil, because bassist Michael Anthony has been replaced by Eddie's 16-year-old son, Wolfgang.

and also

quoting for spook liking a guitar song

Not only is it a good song, but hot for teacher does have one of the greatest film clips of all time. Glad to see it already in the thread.

It is also the reason why CDs ever since had ratings & the s***ty stickers on the front (read up about it).

VH rocks - I'd love to see them live...

If my memory serves me correct, wasn't it Eddie who practically invented finger tapping?

cocaines a hell of a drug

nah it was emmett chapman who popularised it - as for who invented it, who knows? stringed instruments have been around for a loooooooong time and you don't need an electric to do it

It was kinda impressive to hear Gary Cherone got the chance to front VH, but to be honest I was hoping for the followup from the Extreme III concept albumn (hoping that VH had learned more in the time since the 80s.. not an abortion. Great albumn btw.. it's a shame they couldn't shake the 'let's do this for money' attitude and just work at their craft.)


Gimme Nuno Bettencourt over Eddie Van Halen anyday of the week man
