LAMONT’S MUSIC NOTES-FEB 10, 2020…I CONTEND THIS MAY BE THE GREATEST DEBUT ALBUM EVER. ON THIS DAY IN 1978 VAN HALEN RELEASED THEIR SELF TITLED DEBUT RECORD. THE RECORD WAS COMPLETED FROM START TO FINISH IN ONLY 3 WEEKS. IT SOLD OVER 10 MILLION COPIES. IT FEATURED FIVE SINGLES ‘ERUPTION/YOU REALLY GOT ME’ ‘RUNNIN’ WITH THE DEVIL’ ‘JAMIE’S CRYIN’ AND ‘AIN’T TALKIN’ BOUT LOVE’ AND SIX OTHER ALBUM TRACKS THAT WERE EQUALLY AS STRONG.
HERE’S THE OFFICIAL VIDEO FOR THE SONG THAT OPENED UP THE ALBUM, ‘RUNNIN’ WITH THE DEVIL’
