Today, we're diving into the solo career of one of rock's most over-the-top frontmen, David Lee Roth. After leaving Van Halen, one of the mightiest rock bands on the planet in 1985, this larger-than-life showman set out to prove he didn't need his former band to make killer rock music. Armed with a supergroup of virtuosos and a stadium-sized ego, he unleashed a string of hits that split fans right down the middle. But no one could deny Dave's charisma and ability to command the stage. On our latest edition of short and sweet, we’re counting down Roth's three biggest solo tracks, including a death-defying music video shot on the face of a mountain, a cover song that secretly featured a secret rock and roll legend, and a track that may have been a declaration of war against his former band. Find out which songs made the cut and the inside joke that he and his former band were perpetrating… NEXT on the Professor of Rock.
