The Vinyl Vault: A look into ‘1984′ by Van Halen
Each week in The Vinyl Vault, Ozarks First's Parker Padgett and Tony Nguyen dive into a featured album, highlight standout tracks and explore what makes it truly unique. The vinyl of the week this time is '1984' by Van Halen from 1984. 1984 was the sixth studio album by Van Halen, released on January 9, 1984. The album featured four singles: 'Jump', 'I'll Wait', 'Panama', and 'Hot for Teacher'. The album peaked at the number two spot on the Billboard charts, unable to dethrone Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' album. Since art is subjective, Parker and Tony speculated about the meaning behind the album cover. According to the story goes that the band originally asked graphic designer Margo Nahas to paint four chrome women dancing, but she declined. Instead, they chose one of her existing works — a painting of a cherub smoking. Check out the video above to hear the breakdown of the album. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
