	Van Halen - Van Halen (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		What Van Halen are really all about, however, is fun, and it was their role as irreverent saviors of good time rock 'n' roll that made them such an integral part of the rock lexicon.
		For that, Van Halen should apologize (as they should for their recent work and the soap opera-esque storyline of revolving singers), but there is no denying that Van Halen 1 was a classic hard rock record..
		Van Halen's secret is not doing anything that's original while having the hormones to do it better than all those bands who have become fat and self-indulgent and disgusting.

	Alex Van Halen - Biography - AOL Music
		Both Alex and Eddie (who is less than a year younger than Alex) were given strict classical piano lessons at an early age, which resulted in an early appreciation of music -- also inherited from their father, a clarinet player.
		When Alex was nine, he and his family relocated to California, and soon after, was given a guitar, while Eddie received a drum kit.
		While it was Alex's brother who gained the majority of the accolades after the quartet's classic debut, Van Halen, was issued a year later, Alex's drum solo soon became a highlight of ensuing tours (especially when they became an arena headliner, and he'd use one of the largest drum kits in all of rock).

	Van Halen

		Van Halen's period with Sammy Hagar was marked by two somewhat opposing trends: expansion of the band's commercial success and acceptance by a wider audience while at the same time experiencing a growing sense of fan resentment regarding the departure of Roth.
		Amazingly, Van Halen continued to enjoy tremendous popular success through the mid-90's, a period during which the anti-corporate rock, "Grunge Music" revolution, ended a decade of "Glam Metal" and dealt the final blow to many hard rock acts of the 1980s (Guns n' Roses and Poison to name a few).

		I have created this Van Halen website as not only a tribute to Van Halen, the greatest Rock 'n Roll band ever, but also as an information center to anyone who is interested in the earlier years of Van Halen.
		When Hagar replaced David Lee Roth in the mid 80's, I believe the band became more pop-oriented and some of the hard rock influence was lost.
		Van Halen was still coming out with incredible tunes and they are one of the few bands that became even more commercially successful with their second singer, but we must admit that the Van Halen "sound" was heavily affected with this change.
