The guys were joined by Paul Brannigan, author of "Unchained: The Eddie Van Halen Story,” to talk about the classic debut album from Van Halen. Lots of stories about the early days of the band including names of the first bands, demos with Gene Simmons and Ted Templeman, Patty Smyth, Dave vs. Sammy, famous Jamies, and more. 

Check out the episode and, if you like what you hear, go buy the book from Paul.  It's a fun and easy read and there are a TON of stories that we didn't talk about on the episode that music lovers will find fascinating.  Enjoy!
