It defined the 70s for me. This one and Boston's first. Just wow. We'll never see that again. I know they were both from the second half of the decade but to me that is the defining era since i was too young in the early part and it sounded more like a grimy continuation of the sixties.

1. Les Paul - who was EVH's hero and main influencer.
2. Jeff Beck
3. Pete Townsend
4. Robert Johnson
5. Carl Perkins
6. Jimmy Page
7. John McLaughlin
8. Carlos Santana

..... Nego please! There was nothing original about Van Halen just radio rack for teenagers who couldn't get dates.
A band lead by a talentless, strutting arse, with a wonderfully talented guitarist with no desire to expand his sound to something new.
David Lee Roth was not a talented singer, lyricist, or musician... but he was extremely talented at being the frontman for Van Halen. Take DLR and put him in any other band - Poison, Guns 'N' Roses, Def Leppard, anyone - and he wouldn't fit right. Take any far more talented vocalist like, oh, I don't know, let's say Sammy Hagar, and Van Halen just wouldn't be the same. DLR may be the all-time poster child for being in the right place at the right time.

Certainly not a talented musician. But he was more than fine as a singer - much better than he gets credit for. In rock music it's about your voice fitting the music and the band, and DLR's voice was perfect for Van Halen.
And he wrote virtually all of the lyrics to Van Halen's songs, some of the most iconic songs in rock history.
WTF are you talking about?
