		From the inception of the band in the seventies to dawn of the new millennium Van Halen fans have ridden the waves of change.
		Despite our excitement about the apparent end of our wait for new Van Halen music and a triumphant return to live performance, we must emphatically remind you that nothing in the land of VH is certain until the band confirms it.

		What this all means is that this greatest hits CD will not only serve good for all Van Halen fans, but also for someone who is either new to Van Halen or is on a tight budget and can't afford the individual albums.
		Sure, Van Halen had some great ballads when they had Sammy Hagar, but there are too many of them on here, and counting "Right Now" as not a love song but a ballad, the only VH/Red Rocker tunes on here that are not ballads/love songs are "Poundcake" and "Humans Being".
		Of course the question about the fugacious appearing of groups as the Sex Pistols or the full musical development of others not necessarily born in the eighties are not included just because the relevance and late influence of new associations like Pantera, Alice in chains, INXS.

		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.
