Somebody Get Me a Doctor/Light Up the Sky/Outta Love Again абсолютные хиты в золотой коллекции VH. Ну сам альбом не цельный и конечно же не такой драйвов и энергичен как конечно же великолепный дебютник и это слышно здесь что, группа после своего единственного настоящего шедевра подустала.

Surprisingly, Eddie Van Halen and company lost their drive somehow immediately after the great first album. I believe that this energy never fully returned, but the band was closest to it in 84. On the second album, both the compositions are very good and the performance skill is at the highest level, but it's just not quite right. Even in Eddie's playing, one feels some kind of slight fatigue. Who pleases 100 percent, it is David Lee Roth. He still delightfully shrieks at any opportunity. It must be said that there is nothing superfluous on the album, but I wouldn't extol any individual compositions to the heavens, although I will note the most powerful ones (and without this component, Van Halen with Lee Roth is not Van Halen) - Somebody get me a doctor, Outta love again and, of course, Light up the sky - driving and rushing.
