4.5 superb | MaidenUFO | July 23rd 18 | One of my favorites from 80's...First album with Sammy and i really love it..."Dreams", the title track, "Why cant this be love", "Love walks in", "Summer nights"....It's not the classic sound of Van Halen, but it's an essential 80's album....

5.0 classic | hackasteroid | October 28th 12 | This was the first Van Halen album I listened to. To sum it up, I love it, yeah the guitar isn't as good as the DLR era, but others like the keyboard are well intergrated. Songs like "Dreams" and "Love Walks In" are perfect examples. The guitar is still well put in especially like the epic "5150". The only song I didn't like was "Get Up" vocals were jumbled mess. Songs I love the most were: "Why Can't This Be Love", "Dreams", "Summer Nights", "Best Of Both Worlds", "Love Walks In", and especially the incredible "5150".

4.5 superb | DaveyBoy EMERITUS | January 29th 12 | '5150' marks the beginning of the much derided "Van Hagar" era, as Van Halen's 7th LP is the 1st to feature new front-man Sammy Hagar. While the sound, themes & tone has changed since the replacement of David Lee Roth (& producer Ted Templeman), the Californian hard-rockers match their groundbreaking previous effort with another 3 hit singles & an entertaining supporting cast. With a greater emphasis on synth & a number of power ballads, many longtime fans were disappointed... But those who judge this album in isolation will realise that it is a tremendous release. Recommended Tracks: Dreams, Love Walks In, Why Can't This Be Love, Get Up & Best of Both Worlds.

4.0 excellent | GnFnRs87 | September 1st 11 | It was hard for me to accept Sammy Hagar at first, being a Lee Roth fan but this record completely changed my mind. I now see this as one of Van Halen's best.

3.5 great | Fernando Alves STAFF | August 9th 11 | The die hard fans never accepted Sammy. Shame, because Sammy Hagar is a fine musician and decent frontman, doesn't have Diamond Dave's charisma, but still is a very talented musician. 5150 it's not better than the memorable 1984, however songs like Dreams and specially Why Can't This Be Love? are amazing enough to make 5150 a good record in my book.
