1984 (remastered)

I found something while rummaging through boxes yesterday that I am jamming to today.  I forgot I even had it, but I bought Van Halen's 1984 (remastered) album forever ago.  It had been in a stack of CD's and I must have overlooked it when I loaded everything into my iTunes/iPod.  Well, I popped that sucker in last night and loaded it, and this morning I am JAMIN IT!

I forget how awesome that band is.  This one is about half crunchy Eddy Van Halen guitars, some bad ass 80's synth, and of course "Diamond" David Lee Roth on vocals.  The way it should be.  None of that "Van Hagar" crap!

So anyway, if you don't have this album, and you like Van Halen, get it.  You should have it anyway....just in case your kids ask you one day "Daddy, who's Van Halen?"  Whip this baby out and crank "Hot for Teacher" or "Panama" so loud the neighbors call the cops.  I guarantee they won't ask again!

"PAAAAA NAAA MAAAAA!"

Oh yeah -- I fished out an old copy of Back In Black the other day, and it pretty much RAWKED as well.

We weren't wrong about *everything* in the '80s.
