Title: A MUST OWN for any True Van Halen fan!!!
Review: Diver Down represents Van Halen in transition. They are truly one of America's BEST ROCK BANDS EVER! This album illustrates a true departure from straight ahead hard rock into a much more melodic mix of sounds and ideas. Yes, there are a couple of cover tunes on this album, but so what. VH1 had a cover song too. Their following album, 1984, brought Van Halen into the worldwide POP spotlight and also brought to an end the era of Diamond Dave. Diver Down is the metamorphosis of the group and certainly shows their ability to experiment. As a whole, this album is definitely a keeper. To truly understand and appreciate this Van Halen offering, play the entire album from song 1 all the way through to the Full Bug. The subtle nuances of sonic seasoning will leave you feeling satisfied.
