    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.

    For anyone who wants to go with the crowd, VH1 sold more albums than Highway to Hell.

    Same here. I really don't like them at all and ACDC is more if an afterthought for me, so...meh.

    You're one of the few sane people here.

    I'm not sure I can just let this go, Yella.

    I pretty much like a song or two of each Van Halen album - the earlier ones. Never thought they had a GREAT album

    I have fond memories of them though because when I was in Hawaii with no power or water the house up the hill in the woods had power and played Van Halen.

    I thought Eddie would get the death bump. Hopefully he does for 1984. I get sick of Van Halen sometimes, but have been listening to them the last few days and they are great. A lot of these match ups just depend on my current tastes.

    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.
