Van Halen 5150

5150 is the landmark 1986 album from American rock giants Van Halen, marking the beginning of a new era with vocalist Sammy Hagar joining the band alongside Eddie Van Halen, Alex Van Halen and Michael Anthony.

Blending the band’s signature high-energy rock with a more melodic and polished sound, 5150 became a major commercial success, debuting at number one on the Billboard 200. The album features some of Van Halen’s most enduring tracks, including “Why Can’t This Be Love,” “Dreams,” “Love Walks In” and “Best of Both Worlds,” showcasing a shift toward keyboard-driven textures while retaining their powerful guitar-led foundation.

To celebrate the album’s 40th anniversary, this expanded edition presents a remastered version of the original album alongside a bonus LP of rare singles edits and B-sides, offering fans a deeper look into this pivotal period of the band’s evolution.

Pressed on 140g vinyl across 2LP and housed in a gatefold sleeve, this anniversary edition is a definitive reissue of a classic album that redefined Van Halen’s sound and cemented their place at the top of 1980s rock.
