Certified platinum six times in the U.S., the record treated fans to hits like "Dreams," "Love Walks In," and "Why Can't This Be Love," which peaked at #3 on the Billboard Hot 100. The group returned two years later with OU812, a quadruple-platinum smash that delivered four Billboard Hot 100 hits, including "Finish What Ya Started" and "When It's Love."

All three debuted that year on Van Halen's second greatest hits collection, The Best of Both Worlds.I like Sammy solo stuff but to me he changed Van Halen for the worse and they started writing about love in a positive way (blah!). I’ll admit that for the first three albums I quite enjoyed the singles when I was growing up…but the full albums had so much filler (in my opinion). Sammy is a hell of a singer but it always sounded like he was boxed in on a style that Eddie wanted him to sing. In other words, it sounded contrived.

Magical Unicorn Somewhat true. Ed technically was so different from other players. Hendrix wasn't a cited influence, so hard to say he built on Hendrix' style. What I appreciate about both players is the innovation....

Usually going for higher-pitched toms and ultra-deep bass drums, he would often experiment with different gear and technology to bring something new to the table. Incorporating Rototoms, timbales, cowbells, tube drums, and electronics, Alex spares no expense when it comes to finding the right equipment to achieve the sounds that are in his head.
