After the brilliant VAN HALEN,Eddie and Co. had the difficult task of a follow up release.The first notes of YOU’RE NO GOOD wind out from your speakers like a blues boa constrictor.Not quite as heavy as it’s predecessor,VH2 covers many areas :comedy(BEAUTIFUL GIRLS);radio friendly(DANCE THE NIGHT AWAY);acoustic guitar(SPANISH FLY);blues rock(YOU’RE NO GOOD,SOMEBODY GET ME A DOCTOR)and heavy metal(LIGHT UP THE SKY,DOA).Many of the songs don’t work as well as their VH1 counterparts,but this is an enjoyable album just the same.
