Episode 40: 'Fair Warning' with Will Wallner

'My Classic Album' crashes into the 1980's as we look back at the most underrated jewel in the David Lee Roth era of Van Halen: 1981's 'Fair Warning'. Guitarist Will Wallner joins Mike to discuss an album that took Van Halen away from the carefree vibes of their early work towards a darker, heavier and at times more sinister sound. A conversation recorded three months to the day since Eddie Van Halen's passing, 'Fair Warning' stands as a testament to the legendary guitarist's creativity and sheer vision.   Did tensions within the band contribute to the sound we hear on 'Fair Warning'?  How did David Lee Roth come up with the iconic breakdown in 'Unchained'? How did Eddie come up with the iconic introduction to album opener 'Mean Street'?   PLUS: Hear 'Back On The Strip': a world exclusive from Will's band Vain Wallner.   Hit the ground running with another episode of 'My Classic Album'.   For more information on the show: Head over to www.myclassicalbum.co.uk Like us on Facebook at 'My Classic Album with Mike Norris' Follow us on Instagram @myclassicalbumpodcast Or on Twitter @mca_podcast   Music Credits: 'This Is Rock' by Silvia Marchese 'Back On The Strip' by Vain Wallner
