VAN HALEN: BALANCE
With Balance, Van Halen successfully took the honor of being the first act to debut at #1 in 1995 and the album eventually went triple platinum in sales. However, tensions between Hagar and the Van Halen brothers boiled over in 1996 while planning a career-long Greatest Hits album, which led not only to Hagar's permanent departure but also to a very short (initial) reunion with original vocalist David Lee Roth.
