little guitars is number one. i dunno why, always loved that song. secrets, too. they're sorta... similar. and both great tunes.

mean streets, definitely.
the eddie van excursions: cathedral, eruption, and spanish fly. i can't pick a favorite!
running with the devil
dirty movies
jamie's crying

okay, if you count little guitars as 2 then that's ten. it's hard to pick! i love van halen. but, you know, the old stuff.

i think diver down is probably my favorite album. it wasn't all nosebleed hard rock stuff, it had a good mix of different moods, but valerie bertinelli hadn't totally yokoed the band yet. people don't appreciate diver down enough.

I really like Diver Down too. I know that Eddie, Alex and Mike don't much care for it, but I like it. "Where Have All the Good Times Gone", "Pretty Woman" and "Dancing In the Streets" are three of my favorite cover songs. I think that it is an underrated album. I hate the album cover though.

man, wish i could applaud on this message board.

the cover was weak -- wasn't it, like, a semiphore flag or something? -- but i remember i had the vinyl back in the day and it had a cool foldout, a bunch of b&w concert pix. you know, dave doing his jumping splits and eddie van with that custom guitar and that ugly drummer dude. i used to sit there in teen heaven, flippin' through the little foldout and listening to the album over and over. good times.

it's weird how artists hardly ever like their own most interesting albums. i think i read somewhere metallica hates "and justice for all"... what the heck! that's their pinnacle! after that they sorta sucked.

oops, hijack alert. never mind, forget i brought that up, cuz the metallica sellout controversy is a whole nother can of worms. but my point is, artists a lot of times hate their own best albums. it's a weird phenomenon.

Dr. Jazz and TJL, I'm happy to see that you both have some Sammy songs on your lists.

It's funny because in my high school almost everyone picked Sammy over Dave, but here at SO it seems to always be the other way around.

I didn't get into Van Halen until 1984 came out (when their videos made them MTV royalty) so when Diamond Dave left the band I probably wasn't as broken up as fans from the beginning were.

I probably had more "Van Hagar" albums in my cassette collection then DLR era albums, but IMO both eras of Van Halen had some great music.
