He's way more intelligent than the character he plays!

[joepedroza]

They say he was egotistical, yeah he was and he was good at it. And very intelligent .

[robertestrada]

Said “Santana” with a lot of respect ✊🏽

[djthrift]

"Single Syllables never Swing" pure poetry

[bobbyscott]

My wife and I's 1st date, Friday night, 30 Nov 1979, I had just bought VH2 on cassette . After I got her in the car, I turned to her & said "you like Van Halen?" She said " what's a Van Halen?" We've been married 40 years last April.

The man was super intelligent n had a hell of a voice

[dawnpatrol]

David Lee is the ultimate frontman. His interviews are legendary.

[ifturnedouttobe]

Single syllables never swing...Lol...Dave is quick man...He's quick...

[rivkaruthgolan]

I met him. He was polite and considerate, even thoughtful in giving a compliment.❤

[andifisaytoyoutomorrow]

Dave wasn't the best singer, but definitely one of the best frontmen ever, he had the swag, and the all powerful gift of gab.

[hermanhelmich]

Over the years I like and appreciate DLR more and more

[jackprick]

I'm impressed with the dichotomy of DLR's front man persona vs the intelligence portrayed in interviews like this. Much respect.

[RonTimmonsM]

He's a marketing genius and a true showman

[Sasha-kurv]

The 'Van Halen' idea was genius. It sounds so good and imposing.

[susanmurphy]

David Lee Roth is a very intelligent man. ❤❤❤

[mikevatyahoo]

David Lee Roth always wanted to be a paramedic. So after semi-retiring he became a paramedic and actually ran hospital based 911 calls in NYC. They have a weird EMS system out their where not only FDNY does 911 but so do hospitals as well as some volunteer groups to help supplement the large call volume. I have mad respect for DLR doing that. It's a grueling, thankless and soul crushing job !

[glenncarlson]

Flamboyancy was David Lee Roth’s calling card… and he was damn good at it

[EricBlackmonGuitar]

Naming the band Van Halen was the best move they could have made. Good call Dave.

[Forgiveandholyspirit]

It was Eddie and Alex band Mikey and Roth joined the band Roth being the lead he had intelligence for creativity the name Van Halen fit perfectly for originality

[ericpachosa]

Noone ever gives Michael Anthony enough credit for him and his voice. I saw them 3 times and you could tell his vocals played a great part in harmonizing a lot of their songs!
They sucked after he left.
