From 2nd album released in 1979:
I bought the album in the 80s, and for their time, they gave birth to the 80s sound. Van Halen gave birth to the 80s arena hair bands.
But in all seriousness, I am gobsmacked. I literally was posting another thread of songs I like. The news today I was watching hadn't mentioned his death.
So, because you bought their album in the 80s, it qualifies as 80s music?
Motley Crue and Twisted Sister had far more influence on the 80s sound than Van Halen.
Arena rock is generally consider to have started with The Beatles.
At least you posted some decent music for once. Are you feeling alright, Brian?
