Quiz #10 - David Lee Roth "Just like paradise"

Two icons of the rock industry. No excuses this time :)

UPDATED:

In the eyes of countless hard rock fans, David Lee Roth is the prototypical frontman. With a flamboyant, larger than life stage presence and a party-hearty surfer dude persona (not to mention his acrobatic leaps and skintight spandex outfits), Roth was an integral part of Van Halen's meteoric rise to global dominance from 1978 through 1984. Just as Van Halen had hit their peak and appeared they could do no wrong, Roth issued a four-track solo EP in 1985, "Crazy from the Heat", with rumors swirling that the bandmembers were bickering behind the scenes.
