Message: [QUOTE="Husky25, post: 2720924, member: 2839"] The title of the thread is "Rock & Roll Lead Singers." I stand by my 14 month old assertion that in terms of Van Halen, Sammy Hagar was (and still is) a much better singer. DLR might be a better "front man" than Hagar*, but this point is moot. The true front man of Van Halen was/is/will always be Eddie. *Even this is debatable. - Take a look at the video for "Just Like Paradise," off the [I]Skyscraper [/I]record. The point of videos was to promote the record just as much as radio airplay and Steve Vai got just as much camera time (on a song he didn't write and didn't particularly care for) as Roth, as a solo artist...Of course the [I]Eat'm & Smile[/I] and [I]Skyscraper [/I]backing band was a monster in its own right.
