Diver Down

MASTERED FROM THE ORIGINAL ANALOG TAPES, THIS HYBRID SACD SOUNDS INCREDIBLEVan Halen's winning track record with cover songs can be traced back to it's 1978 diamond-platinum debut. Yet the ambitious approach, which showed off the band's diversity, creativity, flair, and fun, took precedence like never before on Diver Down. Featuring five covers, many of which became radio staples, the record sprung from the band's desire to remain relevant while taking a breather after four massively successful records and their respective tours. More than four million copies later, suffice it to say Diver Down achieved it's goal. Mastered from the original analog tapes, Mobile Fidelity's numbered-edition hybrid SACD is the definitive digital version of the 1982 album.
