Val finally comes back with her judgement: Cut the thing to a minute and call it "1984".

All I've listened to today is Van Halen; on my second run-through of the DLR6 and nearly ready to start my third. They are just owning my ass. So good.
The little "ooh" right before the first verse in "Hot For Teacher" is perfect. Dave's little exhortations are the key to enlightenment.

Just learned recently that the cover of Fair Warning is actually only a tiny portion of a larger painting:

Hmm, yeah, parts of it anyway. The upper left part of the Fair Warning sleeve doesn't match that portion of the painting. Still very cool though.

I picked up a vinyl 1984 last weekend with an upside down back cover. Just glanced at discogs, doesn't appear to be a common error (unlike Workingman's Dead). Not valuable or anything at least.
