Runnin' With the Devil and Jamie's Cryin' are the only ones I really love; I can do without the rest of it.

People like it so it can't be very good. If only it had more songs those who could have been my friends had I not driven them off by being a music jerk haven't heard this could have been a good album.

The idea of people not liking hard rock very much seems to really be upsetting you recently.

This is a rather revolutionary album for rock music at the time and is why Van Halen became so popular. If I was around back in 1978 and heard eruption for the first time, I think my mind would have turned to jelly.
