Mr. K’s Super Show #47: 45 Years Of The Mighty Van Halen (with Alex Alt)
from Mr. K’s Super Show · host Mr. K’s Super Show
In this episode, guest co-host Alex Alt (Slydog Music Cast) and me discuss The Mighty Van Halen, whose debut album was released 45 years ago. To say that Van Halen changed rock would be understating things a bit: Eddie Van Halen's emergence signaled a new talent on the scene, one whose influence would profoundly affect the rock scene as we know it. Factor in the drumming of Eddie's brother Alex, the angelic harmonies and meaty bass lines of Michael Anthony, not to mention the over the top lyrics, vocals, and image of David Lee Roth, and it's no wonder why Van Halen has gone on to become one of the greatest bands of all-time. We examine the band's original era, spanning 1978-1984, taking a look at all six of the band's classic albums. We leave no stone unturned, as Van Halen tore up the charts and tore it up in concert halls across the world. Hosted by Chris Karam
