Poison for me.

Cinderella, Tesla, Ratt and Bon Jovi rounding out a pretty decent top five.

As much as I love VH 5150 and that Tesla debut, this one has to go to Bon Jovi SWW. Just an absolute fucking monster. 

[Darkstone]

Slippery!!!

[Mr.AOR]

Bon Jovi

[Ponen]

Guess SWW

[SunsetHoliday]

Slippery is THE album that got me hooked.  I would say Cinderella, Poison, and Europe were also in contention but the gap is just too large

[auslander]

SWW for me at the time, but right now it is THWTD. Stryper all the way!

[Glen]

SWW by a mile.

I was 16 it was HUGE. That album got played to death. 

[CureTheSane]

VH and BJ are the standouts here
VH just wins for me.

[Doug]

Tesla. "Modern Day Cowboy" is a career-defining song.

It's tough call for me between Tesla and Bon Jovi.  I know I listened to Bon Jovi more back in the day as it was everywhere.  But these days, I'd much rather listen to that Tesla album if given the choice.

I guess I'll say Bon Jovi though as those songs were just everywhere.

This isn't as difficult for me as the others...I mean I love QR,Bon Jovi,Cinderella,Metallica,Tesla,Ozzy & that excellent Fastway T or T ost...but for me it has to be 5150... pretty much my favourite Van Halen album

Another hard choice for favourite track.

It's gonna be controversial, but I'm going with "Wanted Dead or Alive".

You wild man. One of my least favourite BJ tracks of all. 

Anyway, I like the cut of your jib so I'll play too.

Title track is my favourite from 'Look what the cat dragged in.' 

Unpopular choice, but this album is close to as perfect as a glam rock/metal (lol) album got, imo. 

[Dead Planet]

Metallica.....
