Reply To: Intersting Take on the Billboard Interview

You all missed my point… Al’s drums of course had an impact. Van Halen would be very different without Al. He was most definitely keeping Ed on track when he was out of his mind on whatever he was taking. Wolf has had more of an impact getting Ed sober, since Al was unable to do it. If it weren’t for Wolf, Ed could very well be dead by now from drug abuse.

I was simply saying Al doesn’t write music.

Mike’s vocal’s were just as important to me, as Al’s drums. But neither wrote any music.
