Could you have picked an image of Halford and the boys from a relevant time frame? 'Defenders of the faith ' was last good album and was released in ' 82ish and has one of best songs ever written by JP. Turbo was HORRIBLE, unfortunately I saw them live on that tour as i was young (8th grade). 95% of you here have pussy parents who wouldnt have let you go anyway, or even buy the album.
Parents were cool then. Your parents BARELY let you go see Hannah Montana. Fitting you dipshits would muck up JP....btw, arguably the best husky defense ever was that year too...and Van Halen BITTERLY DISSAPOINTED me on new years eve with Eddy playing a keyboard on ' 1984.' Biggest album disappointment in rock music history was that release. Turbo was my 2nd biggest. Van Halen rocked like no other band in their 70's prime, early 80's. Van Halen's best album might have been diver-down..like Priest, the predecessor to their worst
The Defenders tour came to Tacoma in May of 84. That was one of the best rock shows I've ever seen. They closed the show with You've Got Another Thing Coming and the crowd went nuts. I was glad I saw that show because you're right - Turbo was such a piece of shit that it was all downhill from there.
Also agree on VH's 1984. What a fucking disappointment that pile of crap was. Their albums leading up to that abomination were great, but someone should have taken that keyboard and hit Eddie upside his fucking head with it.
Screw you guys!! 1984 is a fucking fantastic record. All of the Diamond Dave ones are but 1984 is prolly 2nd or 3rd best at worst. Drop Dead Legs is easily one of VH's best recordings.

As a VH superiority guy there is no way in hell that 1984 is a top-5 VH album. There are a four good songs, but that's not one I can listen to from beginning to end.

IMHO 6 out of the 9 songs are good to great on 1984. But I also have a tasteful synthesizer fetish so Eddie's use thereof doesn't bother me.

6th grade and you saw VH live? The '84 tour was the toughest ticket in America. A radio had a giveaway for the listener willing to do the craziest thing for tickets. The winner offered to swallow a black widow spider.

1984 is to Van Halen what the black album is to Metallica, what Turbo is to Judas Priest, and what Hysteria is to Def Leppard.

Priest is the real shit and Iron Maiden is for prog rock fags.
Not that there's anything wrong with prog rock fags. Styx is a band of prog rock fags. But still, it's true.
I once had a semi-famous musician tell me: rock has two traditions, AC/DC and Led Zeppelin. Don't be fucking Led Zeppelin.
DDY = jelly jelly
I bought a fancy new stereo with my paper route money to listen to Whole Lotta Love and the bridge bouncing between the speakers
Kids today
I don't see any reason to hate on either of them. Hate on someone deserving - like Winger.
All of them could and should have done better.
