The last Van Halen record.
3 personnes sur 3 ont jugé cet avis utile. What separates the first 6 Van Halen recordings from the post-David Lee Roth era offerings by the band of the same name is the deep cuts; the tracks that didn't make it on to MTV or top 40 radio at the time (remember top 40 radio?).
With 1984, Van Halen left us Drop Dead Legs, House of Pain, Girl Gone Bad and Top Jimmy (to be fair the last saw some air-play), all of which are better than most of the singles that the Sammy Hagar edition of the band scraped off the cutting room floor. Drop Dead Legs is just filthy rock with nasty riffs, a fat groove (maybe the most the band ever borrowed from Led Zep), and DLR doing what he does better than anyone. House of Pain bleeds with the tension that was tearing the band apart at the time. I never skip Girl Gone Bad. And Top Jimmy exhibits more interesting harmonic work than Paul Gilbert, Steve Vai or Joe Satriani ever recorded.
When grouped with Hot for Teacher and Panama, you have a GREAT hard rock record that sounds GREAT 26 years later.
Continuing the experimentation that he began on Women and Children First, Edward Van Halen offered up the synth-pop, top-40 singles that divided fans at the time. Fans of 1984/Jump and I'll Wait will remembered being ridiculed by friends who were discovering Motley Crue and Metallica for going over to the spandex side. Well, now that I'm in my 30's as the band was at the time, I understand. I'll Wait is a great experiment of pop (and STILL manages to have a killer, I-need-to-learn-THAT-note-for-note guitar solo in it). And Jump is simply fun.
1984 solidifies the band's legacy as one of the GREATEST rock and roll shows EVER. And the re-mastering job by Chris Bellman is brilliant - this is why Compact Discs were invented.

A must listen for fans of music and humanity
One of the finest releases of 1990 - a year that saw a fair amount of excellent releases. This was the opus magnus of Trip Shakespeare's library, the apex of songwriting and recording with an overdose of pop hooks, clever lyrics, and nostalgia for the present.
