Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time - Rated 292/500!

Mastered from the Original Analog Master Tapes by Kevin Gray at Acoustech Mastering!

One of the most explosive and accomplished Hard Rock albums ever produced, mastered from the Original Analog Master Tapes and pressed on 180 gram vinyl for the Very First Time!

Among revoluntionary rock albums, Van Halen's debut often gets short shrift. Although it altered perceptions of what the guitar could do, it is not spoken of in the same reverential tones as "Are You Experienced?" and although it set the template for how rock & roll sounded for the next decade or more it isn't seen as an epochal generational shift, like "Led Zepellin," "The Ramones," or "The Rolling Stones." Make no mistake, Van Halen is as monumental, as seismic as those records, but part of the reason its never given the same due is that there's no pretension, nothing self conscious about it. In the best sense, it is an artless record, in the sense that it doesnt seem contrived, but its also a great work of art because it's an effortless, guileless expression of what the band is all about and what it would continue to be over the years.

"Van Halen's debut gave the world a new guitar hero (Eddie Van Halen) and charismatic frontman (David Lee Roth). Tunes such as "Runnin' With the Devil" and "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love" put the swagger back in hard rock, and Van Halen's jaw-dropping technique, particularly on "Eruption," raised the bar for rock guitar." - www.rollingstone.com
