Simple Rhyme last? Tsk, tsk. Thought you were a true WACF aficionado.

WACF is still my second favorite LP of all VH albums. It's damned eclectic, though, boasting one of the best and one of the worst and a buncha grey matter in between.

Simple Rhyme *Special Note: Among the top five best Dave VH tracks ever laid down.

[ZachenFoot]

8. Growth/Tank (closing riff) This coulda been the start of a great song!! Is there any history to this one?? Does anyone know??

The story behind this is that Van Halen wanted to end WACF with that, and try to make it kick off the next album (Fair Warning). On vinyl it was one song, 15 seconds, and they just put it on there as like an intro to FW. That was Ed & Als idea

I knew there was something behind this one. Doesn't Edward do that with the endings of some of their songs?? I thought he talked about that one time. Just a foggy thought of mine.

Thanks!!

Why all the hate for Loss of Control? If anything, it's one of, if not the hardest and heaviest tunes Van Halen ever did.
