Should I buy one of their albums, or should I stick to AC/DC and trace their entire catalogue?
Why is David Johansen in today's header? |

I've had on Best of Vol. 1 for the past two days.
It brings many of their hits to the surface, without
the pain of VHIII.

The thing is: I don't know absolutely nothing about them (only that "Right Now" video). Funny ain't it? But, thanks for the advice. |

As far as I'm concerned, you're safe with anything from Dave. "Van Halen I" is the best, but I also like "Fair Warning" and "Women and Children First." |

I would stick to ACDC. |

Is "Jump" a good song? I like ZZ Top, BTW. |

Their Best: Fair Warning
The other ones you need: VH 1, VH 2, Women and Children First.
Pretty damn good in spots: Diver Down, 1984.
Ignore: Everything after that.

Hard to pick the biggest loser between DLR and Eddie. Since Eddie screwed up and lost Valerie he gets my vote as bigger loser with DLR settling for biggest ahole. |

Great point, Valarie is babealicious! |

Do you like Phil Collins? I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Duke where Phil Collins' presence became more apparent. I think Invisible Touch was the group's undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three albums. Christy, take off your robe. Listen to the brilliant ensemble playing of Banks, Collins and Rutherford. You can practically hear every nuance of every instrument. Sabrina, remove your dress. In terms of lyrical craftsmanship, the sheer songwriting, this album hits a new peak of professionalism. Sabrina, why don't you, uh, dance a little. Take the lyrics to Land of Confusion. In this song, Phil Collins addresses the problems of abusive political authority. In Too Deep is the most moving pop song of the 1980s, about monogamy and commitment. The song is extremely uplifting. Their lyrics are as positive and affirmative as anything I've heard in rock. Christy, get down on your knees so Sabrina can see your asshole. Phil Collins' solo career seems to be more commercial and therefore more satisfying, in a narrower way. Especially songs like In the Air Tonight and Against All Odds. Sabrina, don't just stare at it, eat it. But I also think Phil Collins works best within the confines of the group, than as a solo artist, and I stress the word artist. This is Sussudio, a great, great song, a personal favorite.
