Free Music Notes for Van Halen II
Free Music Review: Van Halen's sophomore hit!
Hit: 4 Stars
Contractually,Van Halen put out their second album just one year after their self-titled debut. This was 1979,and it was originally released on Warner Bros. new label design,which was solid white. This design lasted through the vinyl phaseout which began in 1989. The album opens with YOU'RE NO GOOD,first recorded by Linda Ronstadt on her 1974 album,HEART LIKE A WHEEL. DANCE THE NIGHT AWAY was the only Top 20 hit on the album. All the other songs are good.Free Music Review: Wild Swinging Rock-N-Roll....Simply the Best of the Best
Hit: 5 Stars
Just too much. This album redefines rock-n-roll. This music makes me want to live fast and die young, and do it before the album finishes.If you haven't heard "D.O.A." or "Light Up the Sky", buy this album today!! So damn catchy.
Van Halen's first 5 or 6 albums are technical masterpieces, yet paradoxically soulful, and wild, and swinging and reckless, (...). The fans of this band are probably responsible for the wave of teen-pregnancies during the 1980's.
I wish I had more words, but the only ones left are four-letter exclaimations at the brilliance and seductiveness of this album.
Free Music Review: A Very Underrated Classic
Hit: 5 Stars
The Van Halen headbangers do it again! While I thought this would not be as good as Van Halen I, it is just as good. It is no less heavier, no less catchy. David Lee Roth is just as good a singer as ever, and Eddie is just as good a guitar player. I feel this album is very underrrated, being as good as it is. Nobody really goes nuts over it the way they do 1984, which is not half as good as this. Some of the best Van Halen songs are on this album. I just don't get it. Anyway, if you buy this album, you will be buying one of the greatest albums ever to fall under the category of heavy metal.Free Music Review: Almost as good as Van Halen one
Hit: 5 Stars
Van Halen II is a great hard rock album, and its almost as good as Van Halen I. Alex and Michael are tight as ever, David Lee gives a steller performance as usual and Eddie Van Halen's guitar playing is over the top as usual.This album starts off with a cover song, 'Your No Good' it was a linda Ronstadt song untill Van Halen made it their own. My favorite songs on the album are 'Dance The Night Away' 'Bottoms Up' 'D.O.A.' and 'Beautiful Girls' all of which are Van Halen classics, all the other songs on Van Halen II are killer songs as well its just these are my favorites. 'Spanish Fly' is just simply amazing, I mean it Eddie Van Halen is just a damn guitar mastermind, just listen to this song and you will know what I mean!
Van Halen II is a classic hard rock and classic Van Halen album that no fan of either should be without!

Another album from the seventies that was again well ahead of its time. Powerful riffs and an awesome acoustic guitar solo. Buy it!
