![]() ![]() I think it`s generally agreed that Steve Vai influenced "Skyscraper" a bit more than its predecessor, the marvellous "Eat `Em And Smile", and I think there`s a bit less of Billy Sheehan`s brilliance here too. Of all of DLR's albums I like this one the best. For anyone considering a DLR album, your money will be well spent here. Being a musician, I can appreciate every note of this album. Being a bass guitarist and a guitarist myself, I'm a big fan of Billy Sheehan and Steve Vai. I would say Steve Vai is every bit as good as Eddie - tasteful and talented. For all of those VH fans out there, this album alone should tell you that Eddie was not the only talent in that band. ![]() This is a party album a fun album, and still holds its own after 25 years. But within its genre, this album is as good as it gets. For those wanting LZ's Kashmire in hard rock, well this ain't it. This is not Kansas, Yes or ELP, but there is great quality in straight hard rock as well. The song Skyscraper is most interesting and unique for hard rock. There are unique chord changes here on almost every song. For those who are looking for higher standard of musicality, song writing and less commercial material well you will find it here. Thank you DLR band for creating a fun album. You'll pick up a lot of intricacies done by the other musicians as well. The more one listens to it the more rewarding it becomes. As music is so subjective, I suggest one forget about Van Halen and all of that baggage and just listen to this album on its own merits, preferably with headphones and loud. I'm wearing out this CD and will get another one when it does. If one were to take a blind hearing of this CD (not know who the musicians were) they would have to say this is a very good hard rock album. This album is as good as it gets as far as quality. I think this one is the best of the bunch. I have most of David Lee Roth's albums of this period. ![]() I've been around, performed a lot, seen VH when they first started, etc. I'm a professional musician, bass guitarist - the same age as these musicians.
