Van Halen? I bought the first two albums back in junior high school. I sold them during my first semester at college for a bus ticket home to catch The Cramps. As the eighties progressed I felt free to openly listen to lots of albums that I made sure stayed hidden when friends came over. By '85 I was playing Ted Nugent, Aerosmith, Skynard and Kiss once again. But Van Halen never made it into my rotation again. But who am I to talk? Right now I'm really getting into Rush, even their eighties hits like "Spirit of The Radio".
