The Ultimate and Perfect Compilation

Review Score: (10/10)
I am from Brazil and here we just love Van Halen, they came here in 1982, the year I was born. But the fact is, this compilation is a perfect sum-up of all Van Halen Eras, the Gonzo days with DLR, great songs and attitude, and Sammy, well produced songs, well crafted, concise compsotions... both of them were great, they had different styles obviously but a Van Halen fan can aprecciate all of the good things about both of'em. I like them both.
The new tracks are heavy, the tuning is very low, Eddie is probably digging these FX now but I believe a new album is gonna have great tunes.
For people who think Eddie's guitar style is easy, you could record a track of Eruption and show to us all, cause I've seen some fantastic guitar players playing and no one has the same picking as Eddie's, the guy's great and you can ask every great guitar player on the planet about that and Eruption is a masterpiece!
