Early in 1985, David Lee Roth released an EP titled 'Crazy From The Heat.' It was to be the beginning of the end for the original Van Halen.

No joke here - April 1st 1985, David Lee Roth parted ways with his band mates to pursue a solo career. His EP contained the popular 'California Girls', and 'Just A Gigolo/Ain't Got Nobody.' After that, his solo efforts didn't go so well, but as we all know, he reunited with the band in 2007 and we're happy for that. Now if only we could have Michael Anthony back, that would be awesome.

Let's head back to 1985 with Mr. Roth rockin' out to 'Just A Gigolo/Ain't Got Nobody' for this week's Classic Rock Pick!
