American singer and songwriter, best known as the flamboyant lead vocalist of Van Halen and for a solo career under the nickname Diamond Dave.

Born October 10, 1954 in Bloomington, Indiana. Lead vocalist of Van Halen and solo artist with releases including the EP Crazy From the Heat (1985) and albums Eat 'Em And Smile (1986) and Skyscraper (1988). Known for charismatic stage presence.

DeBaser reviews present David Lee Roth as the charismatic former Van Halen frontman whose solo records combine top-level musicianship with a lean toward polished production. Eat 'Em And Smile is praised strongly for energy and collaborators; Skyscraper and Diamond Dave earn more mixed, nostalgic critiques. Overall the reviews balance admiration for performance with a sense that early raw magic is diminished.

For:Fans of classic hard rock, Van Halen followers, readers interested in album criticism

 The image of David Lee Roth is indissolubly linked to Van Halen, of which he was a cornerstone almost on par with Eddie himself; unfortunately, the partnership didn't last indefinitely, as the rivalry between the two eventually caused the band to implode.

 An album that every self-respecting hard-rocker should own.
