RIP Eddie.
Best guitarist ever, plus best music video ever.

Listening to all the Van Halen during extended Eddie Van Halen tribute, it even further crystalized that Van Halen is one of the absolute great rock bands and Van Hagar is utterly dreadful, sentimental dreck.

I realize I'm definitely in the minority here, but I disagree. David Lee Roth was a great showman, but he couldn't sing for shit and his lyrics were incredibly juvenile and repetitive (we get it, you're always horny).
Sammy Hagar, on the other hand, can sing. They definitely got too deep into the power ballad wormhole during the Van Hagar era, but songs like 5150, Poundcake, Amsterdam, Right Now, and Top of the World are among the best of Van Halen's catalog IMO. I actually think Balance is probably their most underrated album - Eddie had great guitar tone on that one. Really thick, beefy, guitar tone.
I'm admittedly a guitar nerd who loves a good Power Ballad, so my opinions my not reflect most people's!Eat Donuts!
