Van Halen - Van Halen (by a hair over 1984).
I guess you lumped Journey and Styx into the popular abyss with Fleetwood Mac and Boston. Fine with me!
P.S. - I found my outrage, Bob. I'm sure you'll be happy to hear it. Here goes.
Ahem.
Yo, Yankee boy - where's the Southern Rock - the Lynyrd Skynyrd, 38 Special??!
Never mind. I don't do outrage very well. Carry on.
I would have, but they were among Kevin's "unchallenged" vetoes. I like 'em both. See, we Yanks never got over that "you people" thought long hair was for fags and so was rock/pop. Then a whole decade later, you give us group after group of Yetis, all drooling onto Gibson Les Paul's.
We can always count on you Southerners to arrive to the party all hoopin' and a hollerin' when it was actually held last month.
