I read way back that Eddie wanted to produce the album himself. Warner Brothers said no. So Eddie got someone he thought would have a like mind (guitar oriented) approach. Warner Brothers okayed it and the rest was history. I’m assuming that Eddie was still the major producer tohough I imagine Mick had his say.

5150 was a great album. So was 1984.

1984 probably sold twice as much because it was originally released when Cassette Tape was the number one format, and LPs still sold well. Then CD’s came along and everyone had to have that format too.

Both great albums, but both are very different beasts. I like them both because they’re very different. I figure more people in the world have the PIN code 5150 more than any other code though!

Greg is right about those “MC Hammer” pants, too. I never made the connection with that, I just couldn’t figure out why EVH was wearing pants that looked like they were leftover from “Aladdin”. He looked like a duffus in them…
