Yeah, I know, it ain’t the Diamond Dave era. Which apparently is very much back in vogue these days. But…it might have the only four songs you need from the Hagar years, all on one 12″ single. Honestly, I have no idea if that is true as I’m not sure I have actually heard an entire Hagar-fronted Van Halen record. But I think all four of these songs were hits – “Top Of The World”, “Why Can’t This Be Love”, “When It’s Love” and “Dreams”. All hits, yes? I think that’s true.
Anyhoo…those four songs. And frankly, not even sure if the 12″ is 33rpm or 45? (Does it matter?) But I am sure it comes with an enamel badge and logo sticker. And I don’t think there is any logo distinction between the two Van Halen eras, so you should be cool with sporting the badge at your local arena when VH visits on their world tour with DLR. So it’s got that going for it. And it’s numbered (#00959). And, ummm, sealed. $50.
