The Essentail greatest hits album of van halen if you ask me. All song were good. This had a greeat potiental for a greates hits album. Source of a Infection great steady fast paced song. Finsh what you started dam good rock song. Then my favorite on the album Mine all Mine
My wife and I danced to When It's Love at our wedding. I love this album from start to finish--I never skip a song. This album solidified the Sam and Ed song writing duo in the annals of rock.
How can you forget Cabo Wabo? The whole album/disc is great even A Apolitical Blues.
This album came out when i was 14 and i saw them on this tour for the very first time.

Amazing!
From what I've read, this is not the VH album that many fans consider one of the better from the Hagar era but I love it. I think Mine All Mine should have been included on more setlists, it is GREAT live. When It's Love is probably VH's best ballad, it's absolutely perfect. Aside from When It's Love and Finish What Ya Started (amazing video, BTW), not many tracks on this album got played on the radio when it was popular but there are a lot of great tracks on this one, like Source of Infection, Sucker In A 3-piece, Feels So Good and Black and Blue.
Judging from the next album, F.U.C.K., it seems that perhaps they weren't totally happy with this one because they came out with guns (and drills) blazing!

The "Forever Young" Japan version of this album sounds unbelievable!!!!
I have the cd and cassette. I listen to this album everyday, it is the greatest.
Love this album. But it really needs to be remixed and remastered. I love the music on this and wore out my copies when I first got it. But the CD version just sounds TOO quiet on my DVD/CD system--and I have to have it pretty loud just to hear the Van Halen feel.
