Our Take

Van Halen's classic third album, "Women And Children First," has been given a shiny new remaster for 2015, but does this update do justice to the mighty rock gods? Let's dive in and find out, shall we?

Right from the get-go, we're hit with the blistering riffage of "And The Cradle Will Rock..." - a track that's as iconic as David Lee Roth's luscious mane. But does this remaster bring anything new to the table? Well, the guitars are definitely crisper, the drums pack more punch, and Eddie Van Halen's solo on "Romeo Delight" practically jumps out of the speakers and smacks you round the face. It's like being transported back to the golden age of big hair and even bigger guitar solos.

Of course, it wouldn't be a Van Halen album without a healthy dose of swagger, and tracks like "Everybody Wants Some!!" and "Loss of Control" deliver that in spades. The remaster adds a new layer of polish to these classics, making them shine even brighter than before.

Overall, this remaster of "Women And Children First" is a must-have for any Van Halen fan. It's like rediscovering an old friend and falling in love all over again. So crank up the volume, grab a beer, and let the rock 'n' roll magic take you on a journey back to a time when guitar solos roamed free and spandex was king. Cheers, Van Halen - you've still got it.

About the artist

Van Halen

Ah, Van Halen. The legendary rock band that needs no introduction. With their explosive guitar riffs, powerhouse vocals and wild stage antics, they've been setting the world on fire since the 1970s. Lead guitarist Eddie Van Halen is a true virtuoso, pioneering the use of tapping technique and wailing solos that make other guitarists green with envy. His brother, Alex Van Halen, holds down the beat with precision and power behind the drums. And let's not forget about former frontman David Lee Roth, with his larger-than-life personality and iconic stage presence. His trademark screams and charismatic swagger helped propel the band to stardom. But Van Halen's music is more than just flashy solos and showmanship. Songs like "Jump," "Panama," and "Hot for Teacher" showcase their deft songwriting abilities and ear for catchy hooks. They effortlessly blend hard rock, glam, and pop sensibilities into a sound that's uniquely their own. Their self-titled debut album remains a classic, with anthems like "Runnin' with the Devil" setting the tone for decades of rock music to come. And their influence can be heard in the work of countless bands that followed in their footsteps. So whether you're a die-hard fan or a casual listener, there's no denying the impact that Van Halen has had on the music world. So crank up the volume, grab your air guitar, and let the power of Van Halen rock your world.
