Yet despite the fact that Van Halen had been performing with Roth since
1974, and despite the fact that there have been numerous soundboard
recordings in circulation during that time (including the Gene Simmons
demo recordings), you claim that Van Halen with Roth didn't begin until
1978, when their first mainstream record was released:
"Now you just look desperate.
The Roth era was great. No need to grasp at straws. It officially began
in 1978."
