1984

Very smart vinyl, very nice clean cover. Includes inner sleeve.

1984 (stylized as MCMLXXXIV) is the sixth studio album by American hard rock band Van Halen, released on January 9, 1984.^[3] It was the last Van Halen album until A Different Kind of Truth (2012) to feature lead singer David Lee Roth, who left in 1985 following creative differences. As of 2019, this would be the final full-length album to feature all four original members (Van Halen brothers, Roth, and Michael Anthony. Roth would return in 2007, but Eddie's son Wolfgang would replace Anthony in 2006).^[3] 1984 and Van Halen's debut are Van Halen's bestselling albums, each having sold more than 10 million copies.^[4]

1984 was well received by music critics. Rolling Stone ranked the album number 81 on its list of the 100 Greatest Albums of the 1980s. It reached number two on the Billboard 200 album chart and remained there for five weeks, behind Michael Jackson's Thriller (on which guitarist Eddie Van Halen made a guest performance). 1984 produced four singles, including "Jump", Van Halen's only number-one single on the Billboard Hot 100; the top-20 hits "Panama" and "I'll Wait"; and the MTV favorite "Hot for Teacher". The album was certified diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America in 1999, signifying ten million shipped copies
