    I guess I just don't like Van Halen as much as most you guysm. These matchups haven't been a second thought for me.

    Same here. I really don't like them at all and ACDC is more if an afterthought for me, so...meh.
    I don’t dislike Van Halen. They’ve got some great songs. But I don’t think I have a single track in my library. I think it’s the shininess, for lack of a better word, that’s a little off putting for me.

    VH I, good album, highway to hell is better.

    Perfect description.

    I have much respect for EVH's guitar skills (duh) and have voted for them thusly, but I've never been a yuge fan of their music.

    I think the first 6 VH albums are all classics and good front to back. Very few weak cuts. Sames is true of everything AC DC did from 1974- 80. ATBJBS, I don't take issue with Highway to Hell winning. It's @Crow_T_Robot (FTG) 's favorite album of all time.

    Hot For Teacher is on mine. Mindless, funny, up tempo, killer riff and drums,, and an awesome chorus. That's kick ass rock and roll.

    Thats it for VH for me though.
